Start Summer with a Reset
Today marks the longest day of the year—the Summer Solstice.
And while the world talks about sunshine, vacations, and picnics, you may just be trying to keep up.
But what if today could be more than a season change?
What if it could be a signal for a change in you—to reclaim your energy, your time, and your intentions?
Why This Day Matters
The Science of the Solstice
Today, the sun is at its highest point—offering the most light your body will get all year. That light affects your:
Circadian rhythm (your natural energy clock)
Melatonin levels (your sleep-wake cycle)
Mood, hormones, and clarity (vitamin D, dopamine, serotonin)
And yet... so many of us are exhausted. Burned out. Disconnected from our bodies and our rhythms.
That’s where small resets come in. They’re clinically proven to boost your health—and emotionally necessary to reconnect to yourself.
The 10-Minute Summer Reset Routine
Minutes matter when it comes to so many things, including our wellbeing. Make the most of your minutes with this 10-Minute Summer Reset Routine.
1. Step into the light.
Even evening light helps regulate melatonin and calm your nervous system. Go outside or stand by a window. Just breathe.
2. Sip water before anything else.
Hydration = energy. Even mild dehydration can affect your mood and concentration.
3. Move. Gently.
Try a stretch. A walk. Or one of our 10-minute Walk-at-Home videos. Movement releases stuck energy—physically and emotionally.
4. Write your word.
Choose one word to guide your summer: Strong. Steady. Light. Alive.
Science shows that when you set a verbal intention, your beautiful brain looks for ways to fulfill it.
5. Name what you’re letting go.
Write it. Say it out loud. Let the long day be a turning point.
You don't need a new season to change your life, but it sure is a beautiful place to begin. Here's to a happy, healthy summer.
