❣- POST 3/3 -⁠❣ ⁠ Now that I am one year into my program, moving onto year two -- I am proud to announce that I am officially a certified Ayurvedic Wellness Consultant!⁠ ⁠ For those of you unfamiliar with Ayurveda, it is actually the "sister science" of Yoga. 🧘‍♀️🕉 These whole body all-natural, (holistic and spiritual) approaches to medicine and healing, combine both Yoga and Ayurveda together. ⁠ (Ayurveda providing the medical foundation)⁠ (Yoga the spiritual goal and practices.)⁠ ⁠ Because of my past training as a yoga instructor (on youtube😉), I knew the importance of the re-connection of Yoga and Ayurveda.⁠ ("It will provide the basis for a real dialogue with modern medicine addressing not only specific therapies but also the real causes of disease and how to maintain health and well-being in society.")⁠ ⁠ ⁠ -- Vegan -- first and foremost for the poor defenseless animals, and next for the health of self/planet.⁠ Taking it back to "hippie" (love & compassion to ALL).⁠🐷🐮🐥💗 ⁠ I will cover the topics mentioned above in posts to follow..⁠ 🙃😊 These words are all just labels at the end of the day, but they were my attempt to capture the essence of what TWH has to offer.⁠ Honestly, I'd rather just be authentic and share whatever I can offer along my journey.⁠ 😏 ⁠ I'm so thrilled to FINALLY be able to share this part of my life with you all now, as well as all of the new info I've gathered along the way. 😆🤗☺️ ⁠ ⁠ LOOK FORWARD to future posts about how The Wellness Hippie can best serve YOU! ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ 🥰--END--🥰 (at Bowie, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2oq_8TB8D8/?igshid=158hzszr06sfw

❣- POST 2/3 -⁠❣ ⁠ The more I became intrigued with the skin and gut connection, the deeper I began to research gut health, and how processed foods/dairy & meats effect literally EVERYTHING -- from our gut/brain/heart health, to our DNA/cellular repair and our mental and emotional health. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ These topics eventually lead me to find Ayurveda --⁠ one of the oldest holistic healing systems of medicine, with an emphasis of preventative health with a WHOLE-body approach.⁠🤗 ⁠ ⁠ I had a hugeeee 'AH-HA' moment when I discovered Ayurveda.⁠😮 It's exactly what I was looking for when I was in search of my next form of schooling and a way to combine my skincare profession with a holistic whole-body healing approach to nutrition.⁠ Plus it's a sister science to yoga, which I've been promoting for yearrrs now! 😃 I was amazed to discover such a field that encompasses ALL of the modalities I've been trying to tie together!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ (follow up with next post to continue story) 💞💓 (at Takoma Park, Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2oqJp1BdQN/?igshid=6ayh37wh1zqd

Sooo excited to update The Wellness Hippie's logo!⁠ 💖🎉 ⁠ With all the new changes that are to come with TWH, I felt it was only right to start with a fresh face 😎 ⁠ ❣- POST 1/3 -⁠❣ Why did I choose my brand name -- The Wellness Hippie?⁠ & What does it stand for??⁠ ⁠ So glad you are curious 😋😉 ⁠ ⁠ TWH was created 3+ years ago.⁠ At that time in my life I was just getting comfortable being consistent as a holistic Esthetician, but I just knew I was destined for more.⁠ ⁠ As an Esthetician who works on the largest organ [skin] every day, I know it's important what ingredients we are nourishing our skin with -- but because of my own personal research on nutrition [thanks to my vegan transition], I knew healthy skin goes beyond just what we put ON our skin, but also determined by the food we put INSIDE our body.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Focused to advance my skincare knowledge to benefit my own personal skin as well as the skin of my clients -- I decided to take my education to the next level.⁠ ⁠ (follow up with next post to continue story)⁠ ⁠💞💓 ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ I chose The Wellness Hippie, (if we're being real) -- because it was a broad branding name that fit with my natural persona and gave me the freedom to expand my brand services in the future (which was my vision/goal all along).⁠ ⁠ ⁠ THE WELLNESS (an actively pursued goal to be in the state of good health; all things natural, balanced and whole) ⁠🌱 ⁠⁠ HIPPIE (free spirit with a kind soul, love & compassion to all, spreader of good vibes & peace) ☮✌ (at Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2opvuVB4jE/?igshid=1kjg44mqayooq

Hi there, for those of you who follow me, but don't personally "know" me -- my name is Tammi ☺️⁠ ⁠ I created The Wellness Hippie's platform and it has been around for some time now... it truly has envolved as I've evolved. ⁠ ⁠ As new opportuities and inspired insights enter my life, my idea of how I want this platform to be gets altered in some way -- always for the better, of course 😉⁠ ⁠ As I've been making big moves with Ayurveda, Yoga and Esthetics.. my platform moving forward will be reflecting that.⁠ ⁠ This will be an educational source, as well as inspiring and motivating to give you allll you need and more related to health and wellness - BODY, MIND and SOUL ♥ (at Portland Japanese Garden) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2H12LZBolS/?igshid=1aeus6xi3merf

The super full moon in virgo was yesterday, and it was a much needed reminder for me to reflect on the things in my life that are no longer serving ME along my path within this lifetime. Sippin' on some warm herbal tea during this snowy day and continuing to slow down & REFLECT! ❄🌬⛄ 💕💕 (at Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuHWWbEhTn2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qk515audzs1l

It's been a while IG.. Winter is a time to take a step back and reflect. I've been really focused on mySELF these last few months - mentally, emotionally, spiritually & physically. Taking time for yourself isn't selfish... it's absolutely necessary, and winter serves as a reminder to wind down, take things slow & do what nourishes your innerBEING. 💕💕 (at Maryland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuHWPAUhbK-/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ns20y7uppauj

wow.. millions of beautiful Turkey's are raised and slaughtered every year, for a 'holiday' we call Thanksgiving.. to me, this is simply barbaric -- considering it's 2018 & we have tofurky for crying out loud! how is it that a holiday that is supposedly centered around peace, giving thanks & appreciation, as well as spreading love - also includes the oppression & murder of the defenseless.. taking the life of another being & placing their dead body in the middle of the table..😖 this just doesn't sit right with me and hasn't for awhile now.. but i was once in a position like many of you may still be in -- wrapped up in 'tradition'.. this year take a stand & start new traditions -- ones that align with positive morals & ethics. my thing is that it's just very sad [to say the least], the way these creatures are treated & mass produced.. when i started to align my food choices with my beliefs, i was able to bridge any gaps of disharmony that was subtly happening within my body. being able to eat an abudance of GOOD TASTING FOODS that were created by the one & only, mother nature, has left me with a GREAT APPRECIATION for LIFE & the RESPECT for another BEING'S LIFE! 🦃🐖🐄🐓 this year I'm so very grateful for the ability to be in alignment with my values of compassion & justice! 💓 ** long post but IMPORTANT to spread the message for those without a voice 🦃 ** thanks for reading! - I'D LOVE TO HEAR SOME VEGAN MEAL IDEAS! got some??
