Between the clocks falling back, flu shots, and a Blue Jays heartbreak, it’s easy to feel the November lull. Here’s how to take care of yourself — and give the month a little Return on Life boost.
🕰️ Wellness Corner: Adjusting to the Time (and the Times)
This weekend, most of us in Ontario turned our clocks back one hour — officially shifting from Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) to Eastern Standard Time (EST).
It’s a small change on paper, but that single hour can feel surprisingly big. Shorter days, earlier sunsets, and that subtle pull toward slowing down can affect everything from our sleep to our mood.
We also did our part for wellness and got our double flu and COVID shots at a walk-in clinic — and they threw me for a loop for a full day. Nursing that with a Blue Jays hangover was rough! But even through the aches and disappointment, I’m so thankful for how the Jays bring us together and always rally — save for one November heartbreak last night. 💔
If you’re feeling a little off this week too, give yourself permission to rest. Linger over your morning coffee. Step outside to catch the daylight. Wrap up in a blanket and watch something cozy.
I’ll be honest — I don’t love November. It’s that in-between season when the light fades and routines shift. But maybe that’s exactly why it’s so important to slow down, listen to your body, and take care of yourself.
Because even when the clocks turn back, taking care of yourself keeps you moving forward. ❤️
And if you’re craving a little more sunshine (or a shot of life to break through the November doldrums), maybe it’s time to plan your next trip. I know I will be. ☀️✈️
