9 Ways to Glow from the Inside Out This Spring
Spring is a time of renewal, a chance to reset, refresh and embrace habits that help you feel your best. By making small, intentional changes, you can support your well-being and bring out your natural glow — literally and metaphorically. Shake off those winter doldrums and feel your best with nine simple ways to revitalize yourself this season:
1. Start with Mushrooms
Since spring is the season to start fresh, consider a new-to-you mushroom. Already a pro when it comes to Reishi, Chaga and Lion’s Mane? Head to our Fungi Field Guide to find another mushroom to learn about and integrate into your daily routines. Struggling to narrow down your choices? Take our quiz — it’s fun and helpful!
2. Practice Mindful Eating
Spring is a great time to slow down and be more intentional with your meals. Chewing food thoroughly and savoring each bite can help support digestion and encourage a greater connection to the nourishment you receive from whole foods. Keep things simple, like soups made with slow-simmered mushroom broth and salads or stir-fries with the season’s greens.
3. Spend More Time in Nature.
Getting outside — whether for a short walk, foraging adventure or simply breathing fresh air — is never a bad idea. Spending time in nature is the perfect antidote to doom scrolling.
4. Embrace a Growth Mindset.
Spring symbolizes growth, making it a great time to set new intentions. Taking small, consistent steps toward your goals and being kind to yourself along the way can help create positive momentum in your life. As a reminder, your growth mindset can be a slower one.
5. Deepen Your Gratitude Practice.
Writing down a few things you appreciate each day can help shift focus toward positivity. This simple habit may help cultivate a sense of contentment and inner balance. Already have a practice in gratitude? Browse our list of 24 ways to give thanks.
6. Prioritize Rest and Relaxation.
Good sleep is an essential part of feeling your best. Creating a calming evening routine — such as limiting screen time, sipping herbal tea or reading a book — can help you unwind and support overall wellness. You might also consider adding our Sleep Capsules to your P.M. routine. They contain a blend of organic Reishi fruiting body extract, Passionflower and Hops extracts. Sleep is formulated to help you fall asleep and stay asleep.*
7. Level-Up Your Hydration.
Staying hydrated is key to feeling refreshed. Try adding natural ingredients like cucumber, citrus or berries to your water for a flavorful twist that encourages hydration. Craving something beyond water? Brew up a cup of our new Mighty Mushroom Matcha made in collaboration with Dr. Andrew Weil.
8. Express Yourself.
Whether it's painting, writing, music or movement, creative activities offer a fun way to express yourself — and let go of what you’re carrying over from seasons past. Creative pursuits help bring joy and a renewed sense of energy.
9. Glow from the Inside-Out.
We love changing up our Elixirs rituals with the seasons. In spring, consider reaching for our great-tasting, vegan Beauty Elixir. It blends Tremella and Chaga organic mushroom extracts with Horsetail and Acerola Berry to give you a glow from the inside-out.* Try it in your morning smoothie or afternoon herbal tea.
By making small, intentional shifts this spring, you can refresh your mind, nourish your body, and cultivate a natural glow that radiates from within. Which of these practices will you try first?
