I start off each day with a yoga practice. I also try to end each day with a few sequences as well. Doing this has had such a positive impact on my health. I feel more spiritually and mentally uplifted and more energized. I also do not have those random muscle pains as often. There are many different types of yoga and yoga poses, so it is easy to customize your practice to fit your needs and what is comfortable to you. I have been able to do this for myself over time with lots of at home practices on YouTube, and also going to classes at my local rec center. Practices are very relaxing and is the perfect time to stretch and tone your muscles with body weight workouts. Doing something for your body at least once a day is essential for good health. Yoga and/or Pilates is a great way to get started on a fitness journey that you have been wanting to start. This is great for total body and mind health. AND YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A GYM OR EQUIPMENT! Just grab a yoga mat and get started. I will link a great YouTube channel for Yoga and Pilates down below..... Videos are typically 15-30 minutes long and a variety of practices that focus on different areas in the body or vary in difficulty, it's your choice! This channel is called BohoBeautiful and it is a mainly yoga and travel channel. It is a channel about a man and woman that travel and film yoga and inspirational videos. I love the positive words they always have to share and their way of life is so inspirational! I definitely recommend checking out their channel and/or their website https://bohobeautiful.life/ . You will for sure be inspired.

The reason I am such a tree hugger is because I am my happiest and most content when I am at peace in the middle of the wilderness. And I know many other people feel this way too. Have you been wanting to make a change that could have a positive impact on the environment? Start to look at ways you can minimize your waste. We need to stop corrupting our land and waters with our waste. One step at a time is a good way of approaching on minimizing your waste, it is a better way to develop habits. I myself is still on this journey to becoming almost zero waste. There is no way I am close to being there. But I have taken a true look at how much waste I do produce and I have been making small changes everyday to try and reduce that. It is definitely hard to do in this day and age, but there are many ways you can make it work. It will end up saving you money too!! Look up "zero-waste" or "minimalism" on YouTube. And you will learn all about this concept!
Psst.... Another way you can help the environment in a huge way...... GO VEGAN!! Another video to watch on YouTube is "The greatest speech you'll ever hear" by David Yourofsky ( if you're a health nerd you will definitely enjoy this) Becoming an HerbalistI have had aspirations for quite some time now of starting my own product line. Being in the beauty industry I learn something new everyday about the products that we use on our skin and our hair. And also being a vegan, forces me to pay attention to ingredients on any food or beauty product. And I like to shy away from any ingredient I cannot pronounce, or that just seems unnecessary. Because you do have the choice on what goes into your body. And I suggest to stick with a natural and organic way to treat your hair, skin, nails, digestive system, organs, muscles, etc. Because it is said that these products with these complex chemicals and compounds have fast acting effects, but those chemicals are going to break down your organic cells. While a natural approach to healing with oils, and plant based nutrients will help strengthen and build up cells. A lot of us don't know, but there are also plenty of unnecessary animal products and harsh chemicals in beauty products. So I am beginning my own skincare, beauty, and aromatherapy line that is 100% cruelty free and vegan ingredients with NO HARSH CHEMICALS. I am also striving to use recyclable material and minimal waste packaging. I have an apothecary with dried herbs in bulk, that I make oils, salves, scrubs, lotions, soaps, candles, and many other things that any person would use on a daily basis. I am confident that my oils and herbs that I use are 100% effective when it comes to healing. People may thing that using essential oils and herbs is just a bunch of milarky. But I am telling you, if you are consistent with your use of the natural product you will see lasting effects over time. Natural herbs do not have instant results like some complex chemicals. You will see the healing process happen slowly but it will remain that way with the same care. Right now I only have a couple of scrubs and salves for sale but soon I will have more products up for sale on my etsy shop.
Beautiful balayage.Something that I do that not a lot of hairstylists do is that I avoid bleach as much as possible. Of course your hair needs to be in good shape, and it cannot have layers of color on it. But if your hair is healthy or untouched then I will be able to make you blonde with non damaging color! I love doing blondes and the tones on this blonde in this picture are on point! Come see me at Phenix Salon Suites in Denver and I will give you this gorgeous blonde or any color with a free deep conditioning treatment. There is nothing like silky soft healthy hair that is freshly colored. I use Loreal professional color.
Everyone seems to tell me that one of their dreams is to travel the world. I of course say the same thing. I truly plan to make this dream a reality. It sounds like it could be really expensive and difficult to plan this. But there are tons of different ways to go about it. Like as for me, I have pets so it would be really difficult to take a gap year to travel all around the world. I usually enjoy a occasional vacation, but I'm thinking it is time to invest in something more. I have done some traveling but not as much as I would like to. I learn more and more every day about the cheap ways of traveling and how it could be possible for someone like me, a 21 year old new small business owner, to travel to all the destinations I dream of visiting. My plans for my life are to travel and see many places, to find my ideal setting to build my forever home.
Traveling to me is very important because I feel that experiences are much more valuable than any material thing in life. I have learned more and gained more happiness from traveling and seeing new beautiful sceneries than I have from any material item I have ever bought. I want to lessen the material needs that I have and be less attached to the superficial world. I want to see what this beautiful earth has to offer and I'm ready to invest my time and money into wanderlusting. I love this world and I crave to see more of it. My husband and I returned from Costa Rica about 3 weeks ago, and we had the time of our life. And it gave us even more inspiration to follow our dreams and live a life as a wanderer. When I travel I love experiencing how interesting other cultures and environments can be. And I've learned that the more of the world I see, the more about myself I learn. Next Destination planned: Anchorage, Alaska (: I am new to this whole blog thing. But I have been interested in doing this for a little while now. I just want to share and expand my ideas about my lifestyle. I want to be an inspiration to those who will allow me. My main goal in life is to make an impact and help those in need. I will be sharing all things I create, cruelty free and vegan beauty products, vegan recipes, diy ideas, beautiful photos, travel ideas, animal posts and rescue posts, etc. the mind is a fertile garden where you can plant many seeds. We need to nurture and water our garden so we can grow and become the best version of ourselves and achieve everything we want. So please share with me and let your ideas expand on my page. I love to see different minds and different points of view. Diversity is beautiful to me. I have a deep love for animals and the earth and it's my dream to make a difference in those lives that I care about and that need some love. And I love making people feel beautiful inside and out. And the way I do that is through my professional beauty career in which I intend sharing a lot about too. I love this life and I hope my words can impact you in some way. Where communication is the most powerful thing us humans posses.❤️
