As the final golden leaves fall and we ease into the calm of winter, at Wellness Travel BC we’re excited to share inspiring wellness stories, new retreat opportunities, and a few seasonal reminders to help you transition with intention.
We’d also like you to note our new tag line which we think more aptly reflects what Wellness Travel BC is about: rest and renewal.

Mid-November Peace: Gentle Ways to Prepare for Winter
As daylight shortens and temperatures settle, consider simple practices to stay grounded:
- Slow walks at dusk to honour the shift in light
- Warm nourishment – soups, herbal teas, seasonal spices
- Mid-month journaling to reflect on what youFre ready to release
- Nature breaks on crisp mornings to reset your nervous system
- Intentional breathwork when the early darkness feels heavy
This time of year invites softness and recalibration. And the confirmation that it is truly ok to slow down, be mindful – of yourself and others and savour the move towards winter.
