As you probably know, travel is something I value deeply. I believe it to be one of life’s greatest gifts and treasures. From a mind-body health perspective, I think exploring the world around us is one of the most nourishing things we can do; it gives us perspective, opens our minds, exposes us to different ways of living, and helps us feel more connected - to other people, to ourselves, and to the world around us. Here are my tips for prioritizing self-care and mindfulness while traveling…

Paleo, Keto, Whole 30, Carnivore, Low carb, Low fat, Clean Eating ... you’ve probably heard them all at some point or another.

If you know me, you know I love using natural herbs & supplements to support gut health, energy, detoxification, sleep, & skin.

However, I also know that the world of herbs & supplements can be really overwhelming, and many people struggle to stick with a solid supplement routine long-term.

Detoxing has become quite the buzzword in recent years. Your body has its own internal detoxing process with help from your liver and kidneys. This system works incredibly well to flush out toxins, pathogens and unwanted chemicals. That being said, sometimes toxicity can build up. In these cases, there are many ways to enhance and support the body’s detoxification process naturally.

On the outside, you’re accomplishing big things - running a business, crushing it at work, getting your steps in, being a good friend, partner, sibling, child, etc. … but perhaps you feel like the more you chase after your goals, the more your mental & physical health takes a toll. You find yourself craving more rest, more relaxation, more time to just be. Here are 5 steps to healing burnout.

The tricky thing about transformation is that you can’t always see when it’s happening, so it’s only natural for us to think that big, extreme transformations must require big, extreme efforts.

Sleep directly effects both our physical and mental health. Lack of sleep can lead to decreased brain function and immunity, mood swings and irritability, increased anxiety and weight gain. It serves as a major mechanism for overall health and can greatly impact our longevity.

Take a moment to reflect on your relationships. As humans we crave connection. It's important to consider how these connections are impacting you. Set boundaries. These can be physical, emotional, sexual, financial, etc. Unhealthy boundaries might consist of allowing others to define your worth, feeling responsible for someone else’s feelings, or doing something that makes you uncomfortable to make someone else happy.
