5 Ways to Nourish Yourself This Spring 

Spring is here, and this is our season to reset, refresh, and nourish ourselves from the inside out. Our bodies have carried us through so much, and as the seasons shift, we have the opportunity to honor them with care, intention, and love. This is the time to feed ourselves well, hydrate deeply, move with ease, and create spaces that support our healing. Here are our top 5 ways you can prepare for a great Spring season.

1. Nourish with Seasonal & Immune-Boosting Foods

Add leafy greens, citrus fruits (oranges, lemons), garlic, and ginger into your meals to strengthen your immune system. Seasonal produce is packed with antioxidants and vitamins that help fight infections and reduce inflammation.

2. Stay Hydrated with Herbal Teas & Infusions

Sip on immune-supporting herbal teas like elderberry, echinacea, nettle, and ginger tea to flush toxins, keep your system hydrated, and support respiratory health. Herbal infusions can also help reduce seasonal allergies as plants bloom in spring. If you are in Los Angeles, Nappily Naturals has several tea blends and herbs that can provide support. 

3. Prioritize Rest & Reduce Stress

Rest is a birthright and we know a well-rested body fights illness more effectively. Prioritizing deep rest, meditation, and stress-reducing practices (like deep breathing, gentle movement, or journaling) helps regulate the immune system and prevent burnout. Make rest a daily practice.

4. Move Your Body & Get Fresh Air

Your body was designed to move. Gentle movement like walking, stretching, yoga, or dance improves circulation, supports the lymphatic system, and keeps the body strong. Spending time outdoors also exposes you to natural vitamin D, which is essential for immune health.

5. Clean Your Space

Listen, a clean home is a healthy home! Decluttering, deep cleaning, and switching to non-toxic cleaning products can help remove allergens, dust, and harmful chemicals from your space. Adding plants like aloe, spider plants, or peace lilies can also improve air quality and create a more nourishing and healing environment.
