What Does “Holistic” Mean?

Holistic health is an ancient approach that views mind, body and spirit as being connected. By focusing on the root causes of health problems, not just the symptoms, we can be our best selves now and for the future.

Vegetarian eggs benedict from a local breakfast spot in Chatham😍🍳🥑🍅🔥💯Two poached eggs, hollandaise sauce, roasted tomatoes, avocado... you know, the works. You guys probably hear all the time: “Balance is everything” or “moderation is key” but what does that really mean? To me, it means being able to enjoy foods and meals that are not necessarily healthy or perfect when you want. Whether you are out with friends, it’s a special occasion, or you just want to treat yourself, you don’t restrict these kind of meals because although they may fall outside of the vegan, gluten-free, paleo, dairy-free, whatever it is-free umbrella, it tastes amazing and you genuinely enjoy it. Life is not always about kale salads, green smoothies and organic juices. Sometimes it’s about brunch with friends, late night ice cream, and fried greasy stuff. I’ve struggled before with restricting my eating, being super cautious about food, and even avoiding social events so I could control what I eat. I can honestly say, I was unhappy during this time of my life and entirely consumed by my body image. Now, I love eating well and making healthy food, BUT I also love enjoying food outside of that as well. And that’s so important! Life is so short you guys. Enjoy it and ultimately, do what it is that makes you feel good... day in and day out. Also photo credits to my lovely best friend @kathavery💕 This is by far our favorite spot to get food together 😄🍽💫 • • • #breakfast #healthybreakfast #empowerment #balance #moderation #balanceddiet #balancedlife #moderationnotdeprivation #healthylifestyle #healthyish #healthymeals #health #holistichealth #holistic #lifestyle #breakfasttime #food #foodporn #foodphotography #foodblogger #health #healthychoices #healthyhabits #healthymind #healthyfats #healthyandhappy #healthyliving #healthyfoodie #healthytips #balanceiskey

SIX OF MY FAVORITE ARM EXERCISES🤘🏻🏋️‍♀️⚡️Tone, shape and build beautiful arms and back muscles💪🏻💙I actually filmed this a few weeks ago, but wanna share these exercises because they are some of my favorites for toning up the arm muscles! And as I said before, for the ladies out there lifting weights WILL not make you look bulky. Women do not produce enough testosterone to build giant massive muscles by lifting some weights. Rather, it will help you become stronger and build an overall better physique💯✅I do arms maybe twice a week and they are also indirectly worked during yoga, body weight exercises and other lift days. You will need weights for these exercises, make sure to lift heavy until the last rep feels impossible. I am putting in my reps and sets but it will entirely depend on your level of strength. EXERCISE LIST🔽 🔸Bench Pushups 3 sets of 12 🔸Bench hop over 3 sets of 20 🔸Row and tricep extension 3 sets of 12 each arm 🔸Chest fly to narrow press 3 sets of 10 🔸Pike walk outs on bench 3 sets of 20 🔸Single arm row 3 sets of 12 each arm ENJOYYY! Hope you guys feel the burn from this one🔥⚡️☄️ 🎧Song: I Fall Apart by Post Malone (Renzyx remix) • • • #holisticlifestyle #lifestyle #lifetimefitness #armworkout #armstrength #arms #bodytransformation #bodypositive #fitness #fitnessmotivation #fitness #fitnessfreaks #fitnessaddict #fitnessfreak #workout #workoutmotivation #workouts #workout💪 #workoutoftheday #workoutinspo #workoutfit #workoutathome #workoutvideo #workouttime #workoutdone #workoutvideo #workouttime #workoutflow #workoutmode #armworkout #upperbodyworkout #cardioworkout

I think everyone needs this smoothie bowl in their life🤩👏🏻✨🌈🍌🍓Now that it’s summer, it’s the perfect time to enjoy one of these refreshing, easy to make and incredibly healthy bowls💕 👉🏻Base is blended frozen banana, a tablespoon of moringa powder, a tablespoon of matcha powder, 3 tbsp vanilla hemp protein and almond milk💚🌱🌿If you don’t know what moringa is, it is a green superfood powder that provides a ton of antioxidants, inflammatory compounds, can help digestion, slow down aging and balance hormones! Pretty fantastic if you ask me💁🏼‍♀️Once blended, you can add lots of toppings for texture and extra nutrition😛👏🏻I topped with chia, strawberries and a nectarine😊👌🏻 • • • #plantbasedpower #plantbasedlife #plantbased #veganrecipes #plantbaseddiet #veganeats #veganfood #vegansofig #veganrecipes #vegetarian #healthyfood #healthybody #healthyeats #healthyfoods #cleaneats #holistichealth #holistic #holistichealing #smoothiebowl #smoothierecipes #veganbreakfast #veganbreakfast #healthylifestyle #healthyeating #healthybreakfast #healthyrecipes #health #healthysnack

Super simple, super delicious summer salad😍☀️🌼🍎🥑 The combo of flavors here works so well, and this salad is light and refreshing for hot summer days😋👏🏻🔥 I highly recommend making your own salads from home as opposed to buying them out from somewhere because you can control all the ingredients and the dressing (traditional salad dressings often negate the health benefits of eating salad, as they are full of saturated fat, sodium and sugar😢) So without further ado, here is the easy and quick recipe👇🏻 *Assemble a bunch of fresh greens in a bowl. You can use whatever you like-I used mache rosette which is of french origin and has a sweet mild flavor. *Wash and chop an acorn squash (can also use kabocha squash). Coat the chunks with ghee, Himalayan pink salt, and cinnamon. Bake at 400 for about 40 minutes or until soft. *Heat some coconut oil on a nonstick pan until warm, and add sliced apples, along with some cinnamon and nutmeg. Cook them until soft and slightly browned. *Chop some fresh cooked beets and organic strawberries, add those to the salad. *Add half an avocado. *Once cooked, add the apples and finally, the squash. *Once everything is on the salad, dress with @primalkitchenfoods Balsamic avocado oil dressing(you can also use regular balsamic but I highly recommend this stuff- so good and clean). ✨✨✨That’s it! For extra protein, you could add salmon, hemp seeds or whatever else you fancy😛You guys gotta try this! Summer salads are my absolute favorite because so many more fruits fruits and veggies are in season, so the salad comes out tasting so fresh🥑🍓🍎🥇🌿🌱 • • • #veganismo #veganeats #veganfood #vegansofig #veganpower #veganeats #cleaneats #cleaneating #cleansing #detox #salad #salads #plantbased #plantpowered #plantbasedlife #plantbaseddiet #plantbased #plantbasedprotein #plants #wholesome #whole30 #paleo #healthybody #healthyeats #healthyfoods #healthyeating #healthylunch #health #holistichealth #holistichealing #holisticlifestyle
