7 Autumn self care ideas: The Manea Girl guide

Autumn is the ideal season to refocus on yourself. Recharge your batteries with the 7 autumn self care tips we gathered in this article. A bright and joyful autumn awaits you with Maison Manea.

1. Embrace colors

Colors have a direct impact on our emotions.

Color acts as a visual stimulus transmitted to the brain by the eyes. Each shade triggers an emotional response, as our brain unconsciously associates each color with a feeling.

Bright colors attract positive vibes and therefore spread a good mood. That's why at Maison Manea we've chosen to make color our signature. One of the easiest autumn self care tips to feel good.

Each shade is carefully thought and embodies a certain energy:

• Raspberry red for passion and vitality.
• Sky blue for serenity and calm.
• Butter yellow radiates, evoking sunlight.
• Pale pink embodies softness.

Our colors are not just aesthetic: they embody an emotion, a state of mind. Our silk loungewear pieces vibrate with your energy.

2. Stay active

When temperatures drop and daylight hours shorten, it's natural to feel tempted to slow down. One of the most important autumn self care tips is getting a little exercise every day to keep your mood up and nourish your inner light.

Physical activity stimulates dopamine and serotonin production, the feel-good hormones that help you stay positive, focused, and confident. Staying active doesn't necessarily mean running a marathon: above all, it means listening to your body and giving it what it needs to feel alive. Even ten minutes of movement can transform a gray day into a bright one.

Here are our ideas to stay active this fall:

• A morning walk to get some fresh air and sunshine (if it comes out). Perhaps walk to work, or get off a few stops early if you have a long commute. Walking for 30 minutes a day can significantly improve your mood and stimulate creativity.
• Cycling is a good alternative if you don't like walking.
• Stretch when you wake up, with a few gentle movements to wake up your body and get your circulation going. Stretching daily improves sleep quality, promotes heart health, and reduces muscle tension.
• A Pilates session at home to strengthen deep muscles and improve posture.
• A dance class is a joyful and liberating way to stay active. No matter the style, the key is to move with pleasure. It's also an opportunity to meet new people.

In fact, autumn and winter can be ideal times to take on a fitness challenge and get in shape for the warmer months ahead.

3. Spend time with loved ones

It seems obvious, but it's not always so easy. Sometimes it's the simple moments that bring the most comfort. Surrounding yourself with positive people and good vibes is essential for your well-being. A coffee with a friend, a family dinner, a relaxing evening at home: these moments create memories and bring precious energy.

4. Boost your diet

Autumn often leads to vitamin deficiencies. A good self care routine also includes diet.

Here are some seasonal products to enjoy to feel your best:

• Pumpkin for vitamin A and potassium.
• Kiwi fruit for vitamin C, a real energy boost.
• Fish is rich in vitamin D, ideal for compensating for the lack of sunshine.
• Lentils for iron.
• Avocado, rich in vitamins E and K.
• Honey, to boost immunity.

5. Take time to treat yourself

Taking time to treat yourself is a must in any autumn self care routine. When the days get shorter, it's easy to get caught up in the routine of everyday life and forget those little things that make you feel good.

Treat yourself to simple moments of well-being: a nice hot bath, a scrub, a massage, a mask, deep moisturizing... These moments of softness nourish both the skin and the mind. They help cultivate that inner glow that will make you shine throughout the season.

6. Disconnect

During autumn, the evenings get longer and the cold sets in, so we tend to spend more time at home and therefore in front of screens. However, taking breaks to disconnect is essential for our well-being. Try to give yourself at least one hour a day without screens. An autumn routine to adopt immediately!

This is the ideal time to take the time to:

• read before bed;
• do creative activities: drawing, knitting, painting, etc.;
• keep a journal or write;
• play board games with family or friends;
• try meditation.

7. Wrap yourself in softness

Candles, a blanket, a book: the perfect setting to enjoy the softness of autumn in all its splendor... Or almost All you need are Maison Manea pieces to fully slip into softness. Our silk loungewear sets are the ideal clothes to take care of yourself this autumn:
