Here’s the quick video below:
Here are the tips we mentioned in the video:
(1) Morning Jam Session
Start your day with upbeat Caribbean music. Create a playlist filled with Caribbean carnival music – soca or calypso tunes – to uplift your mood and energize your morning routine. This is our personal fave to blast as we’re commuting to work. No more cummuting blahs here!
(2) Colorful Wardrobe
Infuse your wardrobe with vibrant colors and bold prints reminiscent of Caribbean carnival costumes. Choose brightly colored clothing and accessories to add a pop of color to your daily attire and evoke feelings of joy and celebration. Everytime you look in the mirror, your clothing will bring a smile to your face – an instant Carnival smile, that is 🙂
(3) Island-Inspired Cocktails
Mix up tropical cocktails inspired by Caribbean flavors. Enjoy refreshing drinks like rum punch, piña coladas, or mojitos to unwind and indulge in a taste of paradise after a long day. Who doesn’t want that?
(4) Caribbean Cuisine
Experiment with Caribbean-inspired recipes and incorporate flavors of the islands into your meals. Try cooking dishes like jerk chicken, curry goat, or ackee and saltfish to transport your taste buds to the Caribbean.

(5) Mindful Reflection
Take moments of mindful reflection to appreciate the beauty and joy in everyday life. Practice gratitude for the blessings around you and cultivate a positive mindset that embraces the spirit of Caribbean carnival – a celebration of life, unity, and happiness.
