Reflection doesn’t have to mean journaling for hours. Sometimes it’s as simple as a 60-second pause.

Try one of these quick reflection prompts today:

- What energized me today?

- When did I feel most focused?

- What might I do differently tomorrow?

Each small check-in helps your brain “close the loop” and strengthen new habits.

Need a quick focus reset? 🍁

Take a “leaf walk.” Notice how many different shapes, colors, or patterns you can find. Slowing down and tuning into details helps strengthen attention—and it’s a refreshing break for the brain.

🕯️ Bonus idea: light a fall-scented candle and spend one minute focusing only on your breath and the scent.

Small practices. Big impact. 🧠✨ 🤯
