Happy New Year!
It's been a minute since I last updated, and there are many reasons for that! So many things have shifted in the past six months that I just didn't find the time to update, nor was I really motivated to. I kind of hit a wall of exhaustion, and just had no desire to get stressed out while already having a full-time job. Just being honest! I love writing and I love sharing my healthy living journey, but I want to enjoy doing so and not have it feel like a burden. Social media specifically starts to stress me out very easily, so, I usually go all in for a bit and then have to tak ..read more

In a perfect world, everything would be rainbows and butterflies all the time, we'd get all of our nutrients from a well balanced diet without the need of added supplements, and there would be world peace. While rainbows, butterflies, a well balanced diet, and even world peace are attainable and can happen, sometimes we need a little help from our friends.
In this case, those friend ..read more

With Earth Day being tomorrow, I thought I would share some of my non-toxic and eco-friendly cleaning tips that I use in my home year-round to inspire you to green up your spring cleaning routine!
1. USE Non-Toxic Cleaners
I only use non-toxic, all natural cleaners in my home. Typically, I make my own All-Purpose Cleaner using Dr. Bronner's Castile Soap, baking soda, white vinegar, water, and essential oils (you can find my DIY recipe here). I literally use this cleaner for everything, but I do purchase cleaning products if I ..read more

One of my favorite months (April) starts in just a few days, and I'm so excited! Why? Because it also happens to be Earth Month, a time where the majority of the world takes notice about going green, being more eco-friendly, learning how we can reduce our carbon footprints, and hopefully prevent and even reverse further climate change. These are topics that I am passionate about and share ALL year long, but, I love that more people have open ears during April to learn about these types of things and live greener!
Which brings me to my announce ..read more

Is anyone else that attended ShiftCon still riding the positive inspirational wave like I am?! This was my first time attending, and I'm so glad that I did! For those of you that are unfamiliar, here is the description from the ShiftCon website of what ShiftCon embodies, as I feel it is just the perfect explanation:
"ShiftCon is an eco-wellness influencer conference focusing on food, wellness, health, sustainability and platform growth. Shifters are part of an online influencer community that seek healthier and more sustainable lives, promote brands that m ..read more

Happy Monday! Is anyone else floored by how FAST this year is already moving?! I've been so inspired to create new content since I attended ShiftCon last weekend (I promise to do a recap this week) and have been sitting on this topic (and many others) for quite some time.
I really feel there is a confusion or frustration on how to choose a multivitamin. Many people, maybe even you, have NO idea where to start. The fact that you want to start is great, but are you the type that goes up and down the vitamin isle at your local natural grocery store, scratching your head, reading ingredients whil ..read more

Since February is deemed the "month of love" and I happen to be sipping on my favorite rose tea, I figured I would share with you my favorite rose-infused natural products that I actually use year-round. BUT, since everyone seems to obsess over roses in February, I'd thought I'd share the love this month ..read more

Hey Guys! I know I've been a little MIA on the blog as of late, but, lots of changes have been occurring! At the end of 2017, I moved, got very busy at work, and was dealing with some issues in my personal life. Now that I am all settled in my new place, I am happy to say that I am refreshed and looking forward to 2018!
This year is going to be an exciting one, and it is already starting off with a bang! I started my Spring semester at ACHS a few weeks ago (I'm taking my second Herbal Materia Medica and Pathophysiology) and only have two more semesters to go to finish my diploma after this ter ..read more

The practice of mindfulness is becoming a more mainstream topic these days, leaving many to wonder exactly what it is.
So, What is Mindfulness?
"Mindfulness is the root of awareness and choice; it’s a catalyst for conscious, inspired living, and your guide on a journey of wellness."
- Organic India
That sounds simple, right? From a logical standpoint, yes. From a practical one, not so much. Life and the world around us can offer constant chaos. The ability to take a step back and become aware of how mental state affects our physical state is the key to stress reduction and wellness.
Stressful ..read more
