As soon as the temperature dropped and the leaves began changing colors, something strange came over me.
I bought a new mattress, my old one suddenly seemed disgusting and ancient.
Enter something I swear by: the big autumn reset.

But Ive always found that, in practice, fall is the superior season for reworking your entire existence.
Your wardrobe completely changes during this year.
And its probably also because a lot of us still associate autumn with a new school year.
So, it has served me well to harness that very specific energy as an adult.
That’s not the time for a total overhaul.
Indeed, all signs point to autumn as the ideal time for resetting the clock.
Im talking more about admin and lifestyle-based changes.
Investing in a proper winter coat.
Doing a deep clean of the fridge.
Gathering up all the books that arent serving you anymore and donating them to charity.
Over the years, Ive learned that actually decluttering your life tends to have a mind-body ripple effect anyway.
Just give it a go nowyou wont regret it.
