“Spring exists to remind us that everything can begin again” -unknown.
Happy Spring little Bee's! I’m so excited it’s finally the season of florals, warm weather, and baby birds! Spring is one of my favorite seasons. To me, it feels more like the new year than Jan 1st, with everything starting anew, seeds sprouting, and I feel far more motivated in warm weather than cold!
Earth and nature is something deeply connected to this lovely season, and despite the allergies, its undeniably inspiring and beautiful to see the flowers and trees spring back to life each year.
This spring I want to focus on feeling refreshed while embracing the fun side to life. With every spring shower, there is fun puddles. As a child, its easier to embrace the fun, but as we get older a lot of us tend to loose that ease of embracing the fun. So this month's topic is A Guide to a Refreshing, FUN Spring! Let's embrace the little things in life.
As always, if you ever have a topic you want to hear, or a fun idea, DM me @beeveryera on Instagram!
A Guide to a Refreshing, Fun Spring!
Wear ditsy florals and dress in your unique ways! -Connect to the season, be inspired by the nature around you. Find what you love and make it your own. I find that spring is my favorite time to embrace the light colors, the lace, baby florals, and sun dresses.
Accessorize: flower pins, fun nails, glittery eye shadow -Take what you love, and add some excitement to it. This is like your inner child meeting your current self. Add something fun to every outfit that makes you happy to see it and wear it.
Bake tea cakes and decorate with edible flowers
-Who doesn't love some sweet treats? For one of my birthday's a couple years back we decorated a cake with edible flowers & it made the whole cake so much more fun! Tea cakes are a lighter fluffier cake that's quite refreshing, sweet, and the perfect spring treat!
Garden!!! Give back to the lovely earth!
-The Earth love us so much, it provides us so many nutrients, it grounds us, it brings us beautiful sights. So give some love back. Tend to a garden, put effort into the Earth. It's quite refreshing and can be fun at times when you start digging, watering your plants in the morning, and really embracing your inner green thumb.
Send letters to loved ones and connect to your community
-I have penpals and I find so much joy in the act of creating fun letters. An added bonus, is the refreshing feeling you get while taking a moment to breathe, write, and connect to others.
Go for hikes in nearby parks, bask in the sunlight! -The sun is out, the air is fresh, get outside and bask in the warmth. Hikes are one of my favorite ways to exercise and be with nature. I have done a fair share of hikes, and I never fail to feel refreshed and have so much fun.
Spend a full day outside breathing in the fresh air
-Similarly to the one above, but sometimes just sitting in the sunlight is like a shower of sunshine that we need every once in a while. Lay a blanket down in the grass outside or at a park, swing on your porch or rock in a chair. Be where you are, and the vibes of spring will find you, and inspire you.
Drink floral/herbal tea in the morning and at night
-Add some spring vibes to your morning or night time rituals. Spring is the first harvest of the year & is full of delicate flavor teas like white tea, green tea, and black tea. Maybe add these flavors into your cookings/baking!
Embrace your natural hair, let it be wild and free! -Wear the natural hair, embrace what you were born with. Let it be freeing, and FUN! Sometimes our natural hair can feel overwhelming, I say that as someone who has thin curly hair and at times wants to chop it all off, but on the days I work with my hair and embrace it, I feel a little lighter.
Open your windows and let the breeze in -We have lives, we are busy humans, and we are not always able to spend an entire day outdoors (even if we want to), but you can let some fresh air inside every once in a while.
I hope you enjoy this short and sweet Guide to a Refreshing, Fun Spring! I'll leave you with the reminder that everything can start fresh. Breathe, take in the moment, enjoy this season. Have a refreshing and fun month,
Brooklyn.
