Something Happens in Novemeber That most Women Ignore...

Something Happens in Novemeber That most Women Ignore...

Problem 1: Your energy dips before the holidays even start

You might notice it subtly snoozing the alarm one too many times, skipping your usual walk, or feeling drained before the day even begins.
The darker days, colder air, and endless “shoulds” creep in.

Solution: Move in micro-doses

You don’t need to overhaul your routine or find 90 minutes for a workout.
You just need movement snacks tiny bursts of activity that keep your energy flowing and your body awake.

Try this:

  • Walk around your home in your socks (Hello we sell the best socks) it keeps your circulation moving and your feet warm.

  • Stretch while the pasta boils.

  • Do 10 squats or calf raises between emails.

These little things matter more than you think. They add up — physically and mentally.
Movement doesn’t just build muscle; it builds momentum.

❌ Problem 2: The “I’ll start again in January” mindset kicks in

It’s easy to think you’re giving yourself a break but that mindset can sneakily create pressure and guilt when January rolls around.

You start again feeling behind, sluggish, and like you’re rebuilding from zero.

Solution: Treat November like the warm-up, not the write-off

Think of this month as your pre-season training.
It doesn’t need to be perfect  just consistent.

Do a 20-minute Pilates flow, walk to the shops instead of driving, or play your favourite playlist and move however feels good.
Three small workouts a week or a daily walk is enough to carry strength and energy into December so you start the new year already in motion.

❌ Problem 3: You drop to the bottom of your own priority list

Between kids, work, Christmas prep, and life admin, everyone gets your time except you.
You might feel like you’re constantly pouring from an empty cup.

Solution: Put yourself on your own calendar

If it’s not scheduled, it probably won’t happen.
So block time for you the same way you block meetings, dentist appointments, or school runs.

Whether that’s 15 minutes of stretching, prepping a nourishing lunch, or taking a quiet coffee break — treat it like a non-negotiable.

Because when your cup is full, you’re happier, calmer, and have more to give — from a place of plenty, not burnout.

💬 A final thought

This season isn’t about pushing harder; it’s about staying connected to yourself through small, steady actions.
A few minutes of movement a day can shift your energy, lift your mood, and remind you that you don’t need to wait for a new year to start again.
