The Importance of Faith: Spirituality and Religion  Spirituality, or having a relationship with God/Universe/Mother Earth, etc., is really important. Two years ago, I didn’t have any faith. Slowly but surely, life started pushing me in a direction where it was unavoidable. Gradually since then, I’ve been exploring and building up my own relationship with God. I didn’t feel like anything I saw online or heard from other people resonated with me, so it was hard to start building faith. I just gradually started exploring and learning, and built up something that works for me. I’m still in th ..read more

What does it mean when you can’t sleep at night? You’ve had a long day or barely slept the night before, yet you still cannot sleep. I know the feeling, and it can be one of the most draining and frustrating experiences. The good news is that there are many things you can do to improve your quality of sleep. So, what is the reason behind sleepless nights? The reasons can obviously vary, and I want to make a disclaimer that none of this is medical advice. I recommend talking to your primary healthcare provider if you’re struggling. However, these suggestions are habit-based and can be more impa ..read more

I have been on my healing journey for about a year now. However, for most of us, myself included, we already have some knowledge about health and have likely tried various methods for self-healing and symptom management. About a year ago, I became aware of holistic wellness and started to learn more extensively about the body.  During this time, I have spent thousands of dollars, felt overwhelmed, confused, distraught, and have had to undergo some serious deep work. Through this, I’ve also learned many things—things I wish someone else would’ve been able to tell me when I first got starte ..read more

How do you explore holistic wellness and healing? Personally, podcasts have been my primary source of learning. Why? It’s easy and enjoyable. I listen during walks, while cleaning, during travel, in the car—basically, anywhere. Over the past year, I’ve sifted through numerous podcasts, finding that some are undoubtedly better than others. We all start from different points, but initially, I knew almost nothing about holistic wellness. I also didn’t want to invest in a multitude of books, considering the time and expense involved. Listening to podcasts is entirely free and can be seamlessly int ..read more

Throughout this year, there’s been one habit I’ve maintained consistently – starting my day with a warm glass of lemon water on an empty stomach. More recently, I’ve introduced ginger into the mix, as I wanted additional anti-inflammatory and immunity-boosting properties for the fall season. The reason I enjoy warm lemon water is its detoxification benefits, supporting bowel movements, and providing much-needed hydration. It feels comforting and has become an enjoyable morning ritual that I look forward to daily. Plus, it’s a touch more intriguing than sipping plain water or grabbing that earl ..read more

What Does the Liver Do in Our Body? The liver is a remarkable organ that plays a pivotal role in maintaining our overall health and well-being. It carries out over 500 different functions in our body, including metabolism, immunity, digestion, detoxification, and even vitamin storage.  Bile Production: One of its critical functions is the production of bile, which aids in the digestion of fats, allowing us to absorb them better in the gut. It also helps digest cholesterol and transports waste products from the liver. Blood Filtration: The liver acts as a blood filter, removing toxins and ..read more

As my first post, I thought I’d talk about something that lies very near my heart and that I’ve personally dealt with extensively – acne. I’m no expert, and this is not medical advice, but many of these tips are easy things to include in your life without much effort. However, keep in mind that acne is not something you heal overnight. Unless you’re already living a healthy lifestyle, you’re going to have to adapt to a new way of living. My approach to most chronic issues will always be a nature-first approach. I like holistic methods that include using aids such as herbs, food, and lifestyle ..read more
