Embrace the Season with Comfort: Warm Hands, Cozy Walks, & Nourished Skin

The wind is kicking up and in true fall format, the temperature is all over the place. No matter what, I make sure to get my outdoor walks in, and I often find myself putting my hands in my pockets. I know it won’t be long before my gloves are with me at all times. I’m much more functional and comfy with warmer hands! How about you?

Whether you use pockets or gloves, it’s great to keep your feet and hands warm.

Stay Cozy and Nourished

Why Warm Hands Make a Difference

Have you ever noticed how much more comfortable you feel when your hands are warm? It’s not just a matter of coziness; there’s a real functional advantage. Cold hands can stiffen up, making simple tasks like tying your shoes or holding your phone unnecessarily difficult. When my hands are warm, I feel more prepared for anything—whether it’s adjusting my scarf or picking up pace on my walk to beat an incoming drizzle.

That’s why I know it won’t be long before I carry gloves everywhere. Keeping my hands toasty helps me stay functional and makes my outdoor activities much more enjoyable.

The Joy of Fall Walks

Walking outdoors this season is about more than just exercise—it’s a sensory experience. The crunch of leaves beneath my feet, the earthy smell of the season, and the way the trees seem to glow in their vibrant colors make every step worthwhile. Sure, the brisker weather can be a challenge, but it also brings a sense of invigoration.

Some days, I bundle up in a jacket and scarf. On other days, it’s just a light sweater. The key is to adapt, layer, and prepare for the unexpected. (Oh, and always wear comfy shoes!)

Small Comforts Make a Big Impact

As fall turns colder, little habits and comforts go a long way. Whether you use your favorite hand balm (we just happen to know a good one!), grab gloves, sip on a warm beverage post-walk, or layer with cozy socks, these small choices help us enjoy the season a bit more.

Nourish and Protect Your Skin

As the season brings cooler, drier air, keeping your skin hydrated is essential. Crisp winds and changing temperatures can leave hands feeling rough, but the right moisturizer makes all the difference.

At Mona Moon Naturals, our hand balm is crafted with nourishing organic shea butter, mango butter, sweet almond oil, and beeswax to keep your skin soft and smooth all season long. Perfect for hands and other dry areas like feet, elbows, and knees, it’s available in lavender, mandarin, gardeners scent (patchouli, sweet orange, rosemary), or unscented.
