Fall Equinox Rituals: Simple Daily Practices for Balance

Fall Equinox Rituals: Simple Daily Practices for Balance

Why rituals matter right now

Canada slides from sun-soaked to sweater-weather fast. Routines help us switch gears without losing ourselves: a minute to breathe, warm the body, and mark the season. Our take? Keep it simple, sensory, and planet-minded.


The One-Day Ritual Stack

Three touch points you can actually do—morning, mid-day, and evening. Use them all in a single day for a full “reset.”

1) Morning | Wake, warm, move (3–5 min)

  • Scent cue: Light our ATF Terpene Candle (pinene-leaning, forest-fresh) while you make coffee.

  • Self-massage: After your shower, warm a small amount of Jointment Massage Butter (THC/CBD) between palms. Slow circles over neck, shoulders, and hands. Breathe in the botanicals.

  • Micro-move: 4 shoulder rolls, 4 neck nods, 4 slow breaths.
    Why it works for mornings: Aroma signals “start,” butter adds glide for gentle mobility, you exit the bathroom grounded—not rushed.


2) Mid-Day | Five-minute reset (desk-friendly)

  • Scent cue: Swap to Pineapple Express Candle (bright, juicy citrus with a tropical wink).

  • On-the-go touch-up: Roll Jointment To Go across forearms or traps; take one slow inhale (“Jointment Aroma Journey”: smell first, then apply).

  • Quick soak option: Break a piece from a Zero-Waste Bath Bomb (Alaskan TF or Pineapple Express) into a warm foot bowl under your desk. 5 minutes = full-body exhale.
    Why mid-day matters: You’re not powering down—you’re changing gears. A tiny ritual prevents the afternoon slump from running your day.


3) Evening | Unplug + soak ritual (15–30 min)

  • Set the room: Dim lights. Jack Herer Candle on (woodsy-citrus with a crisp, clear vibe).

  • Soak: Add Jointment CBD/CBN Bath Salts to a warm bath (or a deep foot soak if time is tight). Pause. Breathe.

  • Finish: Pat dry, then a small amount of Jointment Massage Butter over calves, lower back, and hands. Slip into something cozy.
    Why evenings count: The equinox is about balance; this is where you actually feel it—less noise, more you.

 


Sensory snapshots (for the candle lovers)

  • ATF Candle: fresh-cut pine, cool air, resin; the first lungful on a trailhead.

  • Pineapple Express Candle: sun-split citrus and soft tropical sweetness; lights up a room like a grin.

  • Jack Herer Candle: bright peel, herbal woods, clean finish; focus without the fuss.
    Terpene-inspired fragrance only; no cannabis content.


Quick Ritual Menu (choose your time)

  • 1-Minute Reset: Inhale candle, 4 slow breaths, a dab of Massage Butter on hands.

  • 5-Minute Mid-Day: Candle on, Jointment To Go across forearms, wrist circles + shoulder opens.

  • 15-Minute Night: Bath Salts, dim lights, stretch calves, butter to finish.


Planet-minded, always

We keep packaging minimal, reusable, or compostable whenever possible. Choosing topicals should feel good for you and the planet.
