When the days are short, a small evening ritual can make the hours feel gentler. Ours is simple, and you can borrow it.
1. Pick a tea for the mood
A herbal trio for a caffeine-free evening, a black tea trio for a slow afternoon, or Earl Grey when you want something familiar.
2. Light one candle
One flame is enough. Choose a scent you love, such as Bonfire, and set it somewhere safe where you can see it.
3. Put the phone away for an hour
Read, knit, stretch, listen to a record or just sit by the window. Keep it small and keep it kind.
4. Do it at the same time each day
A ritual works best when it repeats. Even ten minutes counts.
