Today's Kindness #513: September 23, 2025
♨️ Innergize ♨️
September 23 is Innergize Day, a holiday that encourages us to pause and take care of ourselves. Falling right after the Autumnal Equinox, it is a reminder that balance matters not just in nature, but in our own lives too.
This day is all about recharging your energy and permitting yourself to slow down. Too often we get caught up in responsibilities and schedules, moving from one thing to the next without taking a breath. Innergize Day is an invitation to pause, reflect, and focus on what restores you.
Maybe that means spending some time outdoors enjoying the crisp beginnings of fall, starting a new book, journaling, or meditating. For others, it could be catching up on rest, trying a new healthy recipe, or simply doing nothing at all for a while. There is no one right way to celebrate, only what makes you feel refreshed and grounded.
By caring for ourselves, we create more capacity to care for others. Taking time to recharge is not selfish. It is an act of kindness that benefits you and everyone around you.
So today, permit yourself to step back, breathe deeply, and find a moment of peace. The energy you reclaim today can become the kindness you share tomorrow.
