I must admit that seasonal change has never been my best ally when it’s time to sleep. For a few days I feel my body needs to adapt to new schedules, to a different routine and to that sense that summer is ending. That’s why, instead of fighting it, I have learned to create small rituals that help me slow down when the day ends.
Part of the blame lies with autumn. Even though it’s still hot and we are officially still in summer, as soon as September peeks at the calendar I start thinking of calmer afternoons, warm lights and moments of self-care. I like to romanticize that moment before sleep because it turns an ordinary night into something special. And, honestly, knowing that my favorite season is approaching makes me want to dedicate that time even more.
Everything usually begins in the shower or bathtub. Then come those gestures that I reserve only for the night: a facial mask, a hair treatment or any product that forces me to stop for a few minutes. Beyond the results, which are also important, I particularly enjoy that time because it keeps me away from my phone, from screens and from the feeling of having to be constantly available.
The last step takes place already in the bedroom. Fluffing the pillow, creating a pleasant atmosphere and maintaining a routine that repeats night after night helps me enter rest mode far more naturally. I won’t say there is a magical formula for sleeping better, but these little rituals make facing the seasonal change much easier, more pleasant and cozy.
