Suzy Rawlins As summer fades and we welcome the crisp air of fall, okay well maybe not quite yet in Arizona. LOL! September often brings a sense of change and fresh starts. It’s the perfect time to hit the reset button on our goals, routines, and mindsets. Whether you’re coming off the whirlwind of summer activities or facing the upcoming holiday season, a September reset can help you refocus, realign, and set new intentions for the remainder of the year.
Why September?
For many of us, January is the go-to month for new beginnings, but there’s something special about September. As kids head back to school and the seasons shift, it feels like a natural time to reflect and reset. Here are a few reasons why September is ideal for a fresh start:
End-of-Year Reflection: With only a few months left in the year, September serves as a perfect checkpoint. How are you progressing on the goals you set in January? What adjustments do you need to make? It’s a time to take stock of where you are and where you want to be.
Seasonal Shift: As we transition from the warmth of summer to the coziness of fall, the change in seasons offers a symbolic opportunity to slow down, reflect, and reset. The cooler weather encourages us to turn inward, focus on self-care, and prepare for the final months of the year.
Back-to-School Vibes: Even if you’re not in school, September often brings that “back-to-school” feeling—a time to organize, get structured, and tackle new projects or routines. It’s a fresh start to set up a routine that supports your health, productivity, and overall well-being.
The Benefits of a September Reset
A September reset isn’t just about making new goals—it’s about creating space for growth, wellness, and intentional living. Here’s how hitting reset this month can benefit you:
1. Refocusing Your Energy
Summer can be a whirlwind of activity, travel, and social events. While fun, it can often throw us off our usual routines, leaving us feeling a little scattered. A September reset helps you refocus your energy on what truly matters. It’s a chance to pause and reassess what goals or habits might have fallen by the wayside and get back on track.
2. Setting New Intentions
September offers a unique opportunity to set new intentions for the rest of the year. Whether you want to prioritize your health, create more balance in your life, or work toward a career goal, this month gives you the perfect clean slate. By setting intentional, actionable goals now, you can build momentum before the holiday season kicks in.
3. Prioritizing Self-Care
As we transition into fall, it’s essential to prioritize self-care. The days are getting shorter, and the pace of life may start to pick up. Use September to establish self-care routines that support your mental, emotional, and physical well-being. This could mean getting back into a workout routine, practicing mindfulness, or making time for hobbies that bring you joy.
4. Reevaluating Your Health Goals
For many, the warm summer months might have meant a break from healthy routines. Now is a great time to reevaluate your health goals. Whether it’s focusing on nutrition, exercise, or mental wellness, a September reset allows you to make small, manageable changes that can have a lasting impact. The cooler weather also makes it the perfect time to take up outdoor activities like hiking or biking, which are both great for your physical and mental health.
5. Creating Structure Before the Holiday Rush
The holiday season will be here before you know it, and it can often feel overwhelming. A September reset gives you the chance to build structure into your daily life before the hustle and bustle of the holidays. Setting routines and establishing priorities now will help you stay grounded and avoid feeling frazzled in the months to come.
