How do you make your health a priority?

I try and meditate every day. I eat really clean and I feel really fortunate to invest in and seek out people who can help guide me in my healing journey.

This photo is of my new puppy, Paulie, and I. I always think, what did we do? What did we talk about? What did we think about? What was love before we met him? He has brought us so much joy and has gotten us outside, even more and helped build such beautiful rituals into our day. I feel so fortunate to live where I live. This year, I noticed just how strongly my mental health was influenced, in a good way, through my ability to be outside and connect and be in nature. For me, mentally, it’s a game-changer.

What are some rituals for you that are most healing?

This my herb collection. It started as herbs that I used in a postpartum healing blend for my clients. This year, I started making a Sun Tea with chamomile, nettle, and rose. An Ayurvedic practitioner friend of mine recommended it for my eczema, which really impacted my mental health, and it has helped so much. I also love that you can let the sun heat it and steep it and then you can steep it a second time with boiling water.

“The bath is my number one go-to.”

 It’s where I go straight after a birth. I use salts in the bath to cleanse and clear my energy. I know I take on a lot in my work. @candthemoon is a part of that ritual, too, scrubbing away whatever I might be holding onto.
