Hello and Welcome to my New Seasonal Programme, My Winter Wellness that I do each Winter to not allow the dark days or the weather to effect my mood and enjoy all the season’s and focus on what gives me joy this time of year.
I just wrote a post on my blog Style Way of Living, about my Home Comforts and I love getting Cozy in the Winter and take a step back from the Everyday Errands and I am loving my time with my son in the Evenings especially in the Winter and watching a Christmas movie. I like to drink Earl Grey tea and a festive drink.
Check out this blog here: https://mystylewayofliving.blogspot.com/2025/11/my-home-comforts.html
I have done a printable and it is about getting the most out of your Winter and that you don’t have to get the latest trends and having a ton of decor and gifts to enjoy your Winter. I like to invest in a good set of jumpers and do a declutter, Christmas Food, but not too much as it is what helps you to enjoy Winter without spending money and spending time with family.
I have a section in this printable about New Traditions and Personal Dilemmas, that has affected my feelings to enjoy the winter season.
So in this Printable I want you to go through as I post to help you enjoy Winter rather than dreading it:
This is free printable to download and print and keep.
I have set up a Pinterest board:
I will be sharing blogs from my other blogsite, aswell as this one and so if you want to feel better about Winter then join me and lets help each other enjoy this time of year.
Many thanks for reading,

This is going to be my second to last blog for this Winter Wellness Programme. I hope you like the blogs written. I also hope you found them useful. They are designed to support you if you dread winter. They aim to help you feel better about that time of the year.
We can lack a lot of energy during the winter days. I struggle to get up when it is still dark. So, I now give myself some time to wake up by reading. This has been a game changer in the mornings and this due to reading before I sleep.
So have a good routine at night so it helps your body know that sleep time is coming. As soon as dinner is finished, I will get ready for the evening. I will change my clothes and have a bath. I’ll spend time with my son, watch TV in bed, and finish off with my book.
I make sure I am hydrated and love a morning winter walk. If there is extreme weather, I will workout indoors. But if it is just grizzly, I will wrap up and get outdoors. Of course, if you find it tricky to get outdoors, then there are workouts you can do sitting down. It is also a great time to volunteer at a homeless shelter. Find a place you can get to and get out.
Walking for 10 minutes is still exercise. Often, I will do that on the treadmill. Sometimes, I do 10 minutes of weights. I also look on YouTube for a good workout. Or cooking a nice hot meal. I love winter food and meals and so great time to learn to make different meals. I have a folder where I keep printed recipes. A friend of mine bought me a recipe planner. My stepdad prints off recipes and keeps them in a folder. You can win over your kids, partner, or friend by making delicious meals. My Nan would make lovely dinners. Her Macaroni and Cheese was the best in the world. She was one person who inspired me to cook.
A great way to help your kids not be fussy about food is by getting them involved. I love a good lunch. Today I had a crusty roll with cheese and apple. Yesterday for dinner we had pie with vegetables and mashed potato. Just homely cooked dinners in winter that help me make me feel better about the season.
This is not the end because in February I am going to be doing some Self Development Training. Helping you feel better about you and your life. I will be doing videos for my educational Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@CarrieEducationalYoutube-ws4xp and writing blogs for it too on this site.

Hello! Belated Happy New Year heading towards February. I post a newsletter every month. It is free to download and print. I had a good Christmas and New Year. It was so relaxing and stress free. I didn’t cook the dinner my husband did and it was very nice.
My son and I did our Christmas Day Walk and was like always so peaceful.
I have set my goals and life changes. I met up with my colleagues on Epsom Hospital Radio. We had a Belated Christmas Dinner at the Rubbing House on the Epsom Downs. It was very nice and just a lovely evening. If you want to volunteer to work on Epsom Hospital Radio, check this link.
Please check out my Newsletter for January 2025.
Many thanks to those who have subscribed to this site. It is coming up to the end of my Winter Wellness programme. I will start doing Self Development Training on my Educational Youtube channel in February 2025. I will also be making videos and blogs about it too.
