4 Best Ways to Enjoy the Spooky Season

Corn Mazes and Pumpkin Patches

Getting your inner Charlie Brown out is a great way to enjoy the holiday season in a safe environment with tons of fun activities for the whole family. The pumpkin patch is home to some of the greatest traditions that remind you

The real fun starts when you get a good group going, and start having a more routine experience surrounding mazes, pumpkin patches, movie nights, and other group nights out and about to celebrate. 

Holiday Recipes

Recipes and seasonal treats all over are a great way to embrace the more delicious side of spooky season. Fun candies, bakery speciality items, new ice cream and coffee flavors, countless different additions can be worked into your fall season spirits.

Make sure that when you do try some of these, there's a balance to the choices you implement into your meal planning and such. You don't want to overdo sugars and calories, as holiday recipes are often rich in both.

Horror Movies

Horror movies are another great step to get going on the spooky season vibes. They can be fun for date nights, friends and family, bigger events, and just getting in the spooky vibes. A handful of fan favorites include:

• The Conjuring Universe
• Sinister
• Get Out
• Insidious
• The Exorcist
• A Quiet Place
• Texas Chainsaw Massacre
• Scream
• Donnie Darko
• The Shining
• Us

Additionally, shorter films free on YouTube you can find include The Other Side of the Box and The Chair, some exceptional films from independent creators you should go check out in the genre. As a more intense experience with horror, they're not for the feint of heart when it comes to gripping short-form narratives.

Spooky Stories

Storytelling is the great unifier of universal language and experience. With scary stories told well, your spooky season will be in full swing for some enjoyable, frightful nights ahead with friends and family sleeping with one eye open.

However, beyond these fun habits and activities to try, you have to take care of yourself too. Spooky season is full of sweets, drinks, and other delights that can be detrimental to your health in excess. 

Wellness Habits Worked Into Your Spooky Szn

On top of fun activities and good vibes, you've gotta combat the heaviest sugar dose of the year. Candy on candy will be sprouted throughout the next coming months, and having good functional support for your body is going to be a key.

A few routes folks might turn to are:

• New diets
• More exercise
• Regulated social life
• Supplement support

When it comes to getting the best supplement support available, folks have often looked to nootropics or vitamins for a bit of added daily support. A recently popularized superfood in functional mushrooms has just recently made its way into the mainstream health and wellness diet, as an internationally recognized superfood for the last several thousand years.

What are Medicinal Mushrooms?

Medicinal mushrooms have become a proven quality supplement for boosting your daily function and helping you get on track with better daily wellness. They're rich in vitamins, minerals, and "functional" support that tailors to specific needs that you might be looking for in daily support. These could include:

• Increased energy
• Better stress relief
• Regulated immunity
• Improved moods
• Restful sleep
• Good cardiovascular health

Together, each of these benefits can be a game-changer when it comes to stepping up your wellness game. It just comes down to how many you are able to work in without sacrificing a ton of your time in the morning or evening.

For example, if you go the raw mushroom route, you're going to have to try a bunch of different recipes to find the perfect combination of recipes for your needs. To expedite that process and ease the stress of the holiday season, some alternatives via supplements include:

• Mushroom coffee
• Mushroom powders
• Mushroom gummies

Not every one of these may be your cup of tea. If you're looking to try a wide variety, assess the pros and cons of how you'd be replacing a cup of coffee or working in a powder into your usual meal prep. Gummies additionally might have the greatest ease of access, considering there's zero prep work, high concentrations of mushrooms, and exceptional flavors as well.

Are Medicinal Mushrooms Safe?

Yep! Medicinal mushrooms can be used in moderation as often as daily, and even in excess of the recommended 2000mg in daily servings rarely exhibit any form of side effects. However, in exceptionally rare cases, you may experience:

• Abdominal pain
• Nausea
• Rash
• Increased anxiety

They also can negatively interact with blood thinning medications and any autoimmune disorders. Still, since these are so rarely developed even in excess mushroom use, the primary impact mushrooms like lion's mane and chaga should have on your daily routine are functional benefits.

Luckily, with Troomy's specially targeted blends in each species of mushroom, you can access these benefits with ease today.
