3 grounding Spring rituals for the change of season
Spring is here - longer days, softer air, and the first signs of new life all around us. It’s a season that feels light and full of possibility, but it can also bring a sense of rush - an eagerness to do more, move faster, and jump into what’s next.
That’s why this week’s Slow Down is about creating a few simple rituals to help you stay grounded as you step into the new season.
1. Start with fresh air
Each morning, open a window or step outside and take a few slow breaths. Notice the shift in the air, the sound of birds, or the scent of blossoms - a gentle reset to begin your day with presence.

2. Reflect before you leap
Before you race ahead into new routines, pause to ask: What am I carrying from winter that I want to keep? And what can I let go? A few minutes of journaling or quiet thought can create clarity for the season ahead.

3. Sip mindfully
Choose one drink this week - a tea, coffee, or matcha - and enjoy it without distraction. Notice the warmth, the flavour, the way it feels to give yourself a small daily pause.

These little rituals don’t need much time, but they anchor you in the season, helping you to embrace Spring with calm energy instead of rushing through it.
So as the days grow brighter, let your rituals remind you: growth can be steady, grounded, and gentle.
