Rewild with Hygge

04/01/2026

I keep seeing people do this thing every January…

They wake up one morning and decide they’re going to “sort themselves out.”

Back on track.
New rules.
Stricter. Better. More disciplined.

But I honestly don’t think most of us need more pressure right now.

I think we need more kindness.

Because if you feel puffy, tired, foggy, achy, anxious, or just… a bit off —
that’s not your body being dramatic.

That’s your body saying:

“I’ve had a lot going on. Can we slow down a minute?”

And real recovery doesn’t usually start with a big plan.
It starts with something much smaller.

It starts with you doing one gentle thing that tells your system:
you’re safe.

Like…

drinking a warm cup of herbal tea before you do anything else

having proper breakfast instead of grabbing whatever

stepping outside for ten minutes or take a wild swim

going to bed earlier even if the kitchen isn’t perfect

saying no to one extra thing

making your food a bit warmer and maybe bake some bread

choosing softness instead of forcing

Not because you’re weak — but because your body works better when it isn’t under constant strain.

You don’t need to fix your whole life this week.

You just need one small supportive choice… and then another.

So here’s a question I’m asking myself:

💭 If my body could send me one request for this week… what would it be?

No judgement.
No “shoulds.”
Just listening.

What would yours ask for? 💛

I saw this quote today and it stopped me in my tracks:

“Reset, readjust, restart, refocus — as many times as you need to.”

Because honestly… this has been one of the strongest tools in my toolbox. I’ve never really seen a setback as a failure. I’ve always treated it as a stepping stone. And I’ve never been afraid to take a step back when I need to — to gather myself, to breathe, to reset.
Sometimes that step back is the thing that saves you from burning out completely.

We’re so often taught that stopping means you’re behind…
But I actually think stopping can be a sign of strength.

It’s wisdom.
It’s self-trust.
It’s choosing to stay in the game without breaking yourself.

So if you needed permission today:

Reset.
Readjust.
Restart.
Refocus.

As many times as you need to.

It’s not failure.
It’s how you keep going — gently, and for the long run.

What does happiness mean to you right now? For me, it’s not the big flashy moments. It’s not some perfect life where everything is calm and sorted. It’s honestly much smaller than that at this time of year.

Happiness, at the moment, is chiselling out a little pocket of time in my day to do something that relaxes me.

Sometimes it’s only 30 minutes, sometimes it’s even less. And here’s the important bit…

I’ve learnt to value that positively. Not with the old mindset of:
“Is that it?” or “I should be doing something more useful.”

Because that thinking keeps us stuck in this constant feeling of not-enough. Now I treat those small moments like they matter — because they do.

Now I understand that 30 minutes is:-

my nervous system unclenching
my brain getting quieter
my body saying “thank you”
me coming back to myself

And honestly… mindset is half the battle.

When you stop dismissing the small resets, you start building a life that feels more breathable.

So what does happiness look like for you right now?
Not the dream version.
The real one — today.

And if it’s something tiny, it still counts!

This isn’t “wellness content” — it’s a way of being.

Buzzwords like "make do," "mend," "upcycle," and "reuse" are gaining traction as we shift our attitudes toward sustainability. Vintage and homemade are no longer just trends—they’re the way forward!

Not only are they good for the environment, but they also give us a fantastic excuse to get creative!

How about gathering some fallen leaves and using them to create beautiful, personalized bookmarks? Just grab some sturdy paper, press those leaves, and let your creativity flow! It’s a simple way to enjoy the season and add a touch of nature to your reading.

For many of us, particularly those with ADHD and autism, it’s easy to feel like we have to explain ourselves to the world. But guess what? You don’t!

When you let go of that pressure, you open up space for self-acceptance and happiness. It’s empowering to live life on your terms without worrying about others’ opinions!

Remember, your path is yours alone, and it’s perfectly valid! Embrace it!

Great for a party or scale it down and use an ice cube tray to top the evening drink at sunset. 🍸 🧊 🌹 🌸

Fifteen Minutes to Come Home to Yourself

At Koppany Pines, life moves to the rhythm of wind through the branches and the quiet steps of those who wander here. You don’t need hours to feel the change—just fifteen minutes in the countryside can rewild your senses and wrap your day in the gentle comfort of hygge.

Step onto the path and let the world fall away. The pine-scented air carries a stillness that settles in your chest. Sunlight dances through the needles, warming your face in fleeting, golden touches. You notice the crunch of earth beneath your feet, the curve of the path ahead, the sky widening above.

This is rewilding—not about becoming something different, but remembering what you already are. A part of the living world. A creature built to walk, to breathe, to notice.

Hygge finds you here too, not in candles or knitted blankets, but in the simple comfort of belonging. Each step is a small act of care, a way to loosen the knots in your mind and let the day soften.

When you return, it’s as though you’ve been away for much longer. Your thoughts are quieter. Your breath is deeper. And somewhere deep down, you feel… more yourself.

Fifteen minutes. That’s all it takes. Out here among the pines, time has a way of giving more than it takes.
