What is Holistic Health?

 

As a toddler mom, you know that life can feel chaotic and overwhelming.

 

Holistic Health offers a solution that recognizes the importance of taking care of your whole self - mind, body, and spirit - to achieve true wellness.

 

It's not just about eating right or exercising, but also about finding balance in all areas of your life, including your physical, mental, emotional, social, and intellectual well-being.

 

Finding this balance can be a challenge, but it's essential for living a happy life, both for yourself and your family.

 

With Holistic Health, you'll discover new ways to care for yourself and find inspiration to create a fulfilling life for you and your loved ones.

​

I've organized Holistic Health into the following seven waypoints:

​

1. Lifestyle

2. Physical Activity

3. Nutrition

4. Mindfulness

5. Radiance

6. Caregiving (including self-care)

7. Travel (bonus)

As you navigate through the challenges and obstacles of daily life,

the Waypoints provide a sense of direction and purpose,

helping you stay on track and maintain momentum toward your goals.

 

By embracing the Waypoints and their holistic approach,

you can create a roadmap to a healthier, happier, and more fulfilling life.

Physical Activity

 

As a busy mom with little ones, finding time to exercise may seem impossible. But getting active doesn't have to be a chore. Incorporating activities like yoga, walking, and strength building into your daily routine can help you stay healthy and feel great.

 

Even simple tasks like carrying groceries or playing with your kids can be opportunities to get moving, build strength, and alleviate anxiety.

 

And don't forget about the power of play! Playing with your children helps them develop and can be a fun and effective way to stay active.

 

Let me show you how to make physical activity a natural part of your daily life, so you can feel strong and energized while keeping up with the demands of motherhood.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness

​

Anxiety can be a common experience for many moms with young children, but mindfulness can help.

 

It's not just for Buddhist monks or those rare few who can clear their minds.

​

Being mindful is more about being aware than stopping your brain from thinking. The mind is meant to throw signals around and stay occupied, but this can often overwhelm us.

​

By practicing mindfulness and redirecting your focus, you can learn to observe your thoughts with curiosity, compassion, and non-judgment.

 

Over time, your mind can become naturally calm and less prone to anxiety.

​

In my program, we'll explore various techniques to help you integrate mindfulness into your daily life as a mom with a toddler.

 

From mindful daily tasks such as cooking, eating, and walking to meditation, body scans, breathwork, nature basking, journaling, and more, I'll guide you toward a calmer, more centered state of being.

Radiance

 

As a busy mom with a little one, prioritizing your health and wellness can often feel like a luxury you can't afford. However, taking care of your body from the inside-out and outside-in can create a radiant shine that leaves you feeling rejuvenated and refreshed.

 

While practicing holistic health can help nourish your body from the inside, taking care of your external body and face is just as important.

 

By incorporating a simple daily and weekly radiance ritual, you can reduce tension and anxiety while rejuvenating your entire body - making you look and feel your best as you navigate the challenges of motherhood.

 

With just a few minutes of self-care each day, you can achieve a glowing and refreshed look that matches the beauty you already possess.

I aim to guide you toward regular practices that will leave you feeling rejuvenated, calm, and confident in providing care to your toddler and family.
