Winter can feel excessively long and uncomfortable, especially after the holidays. To make this slump a little more uplifting, why not bring the warmth of summer into it! Here are some ways to remind yourself that the warm weather is just around the corner.
- Tropical Treats
Make yourself a fruity smoothie or mocktail like a piña colada. If you’re not in the mood for a drink, a colorful fruit salad is also a great option. The sweet, fresh flavors will bring you back to sunny days.
2. Summer Movies & Music
Set the mood with a beachy playlist or have a summer movie marathon. From Aqua Marine to The Parent Trap, anything with surfing, road trips, sun, or sand should do the trick!
3. Dream & Plan
Create a summer vision board with places you want to visit or activities you want to do. Start thinking about your summer wardrobe, and find inspiration from friends and Pinterest.
4. Get into Fitness
It’s never too early to get ready for swimsuit season. Though you are so much more than your body, starting a fitness routine that makes you feel good inside and out can be so beneficial. Start with simple and light exercise activities such as walks, running, or yoga.
Time flies, and before you know it, summer will be here once more. Let the taste of summer lighten you this winter so that when the highly anticipated season does arrive, you’ll be more than ready for those warm days!
