Fall is here! That means it’s time for fall foliage and family fun, so take a look at our list of fun activities to try this fall season — including outdoor and indoor activities.
Easily one of the most beautiful times of the year, fall is full of wonder and warmth. The falling leaves crunching under your feet and all the pies you can eat make it that much more special.

And as you begin prepping for the busiest time of the year, don’t forget to take a minute to pause. Rest and relaxation are just as important as going out and having fun. HTP Calm may support a “tranquil mood”, so when you’re feeling spread thin, find time to unwind and lean into JOMO (joy of missing out).
