SANRAE Founder Kylie Jane Shares How She Supports Her Body This Autumn

Hey Sanraes!

Move over iced matcha lattes—hello to warming collagen turmeric lattes! As a sun-loving South African, winter has never been my favourite season. But this year, I’m welcoming autumn and winter with open arms. The thought of cozy scarves, comforting warm drinks, and quiet nights in feels exactly like what my body needs right now.

Here’s how I’m supporting my body through this beautiful seasonal transition:

Electrolytes: Your Year-Round Hydration Heroes

Electrolytes aren’t just for summer—they’re essential for staying hydrated, energized, and balanced all year long, especially as the air turns cooler and drier. Here’s why replenishing electrolytes is just as important in autumn and winter:

• Hydration Matters: Dry indoor heating and cold outdoor air can both lead to dehydration, even if you’re not sweating. Electrolytes like sodium and potassium help your body retain fluids and function optimally.

• Immune Support: Seasonal changes can challenge your immune system. Electrolytes support cellular health, helping your immune defenses stay strong during cold and flu season.

• Nourishing Skin from Within: Cold weather often dries out skin. Staying hydrated with electrolytes promotes natural skin moisture and radiance.

• Energy & Muscle Health: Whether you’re exercising or just staying active, electrolytes help prevent muscle cramps and maintain energy levels, even in chilly weather.

• Balance for Body & Mind: Electrolytes such as magnesium aid brain function and focus, helping you combat sluggishness as days get shorter.

Nourishing Skincare Rituals

At SANRAE, we believe radiant skin begins from within. Along with prioritizing collagen and protein-rich nutrition, I nourish my skin with healthy fats and a colourful variety of fruits and vegetables. At night, I love using our SANRAE Jade Gua Sha as part of my skincare ritual. This gentle massage tool promotes circulation, reduces puffiness and redness, and leaves my skin feeling plump and glowing—perfect for autumn’s drying air.

Embrace Green & Orange Foods for Seasonal Vitality

Green and orange vegetables are powerhouses for supporting your body and mind through seasonal shifts.

• Green Veggies like kale, spinach, and broccoli are packed with vitamins and minerals that boost immunity and help detoxify your system.

• Orange Foods such as sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which supports skin health and provides a natural energy lift.

Adding these vibrant, seasonal ingredients to your meals not only nourishes you from within but also promotes radiant skin and lasting vitality.

Take Care of Your Body and Mind This Season, Sanrae!

As the seasons change, your self-care rituals can shift too. Embrace these simple, nourishing practices to keep your body balanced, your skin glowing, and your mind calm.
