  • soaking away this cold and drenching my face in @naturopathica calendula essential hydrating cream. my skin is a little extra dry and even raw under my nose from being sick so this stuff feels heavenly! calendula, which is in the marigold genus, is a “power flower” well known for its versatile healing properties 🌼 it has been used for centuries to soothe, protect and speed healing time of skin. calendula’s impressive anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant properties not only stimulate healing, but can also improve the overall appearance, health and youthfulness of skin. i geek out over all things plants and wellness so you know i love that @naturopathica was inspired by naturopathic medicine - honoring the healing powers of nature and the bodies innate ability to heal itself. cheers to that! ✨ #feedyourdivine #naturopathica #sponsored
  • good mood food ✌🏼 talking about the gut, mental health, a prebiotic rich plant-based diet and probiotics in my latest blog post. . . probiotics and supplements in general can be a very overwhelming space to navigate - even for well-educated consumers. being very intentional and clear on what is important to me personally, has really helped me select the products that I choose to incorporate as a compliment to my diet. . . I want radical transparency and an unwavering commitment to the people, animals and planet. I want to know how ingredients are sourced, how workers are treated, how they are giving back to their community and of course that products are effective without unnecessary additives. . . @megafood has checked off all my boxes and more which is why the new Mood* Shelf-Stable Probiotics were an easy choice for me - also super convenient as I have been on the go more recently. #megafood also has several other targeted probiotic options to meet your specific needs and lifestyle. as always, all #megafood products are certified glyphosate residue free 🙌🏼 link in my bio to read more. . . #sponsored #megafoodblogger #probiotics #guthealth #probioticswithpurpose *This statement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

  • I spent the majority of my teen years disrespecting my body. Counting, restricting, punishing, analyzing and comparing. While it would be a lie to say I don't still feel insecurities, I can say wholeheartedly that, at the very least, I feel grateful for my body everyday. . . Mindfulness has helped me acknowledge the nagging thoughts that creep in and seek to destroy my worth. It’s allowed me to truly honor my outward, physical being and delight in the quirks and the miracle that is this vessel. I am alive. I am able. Life and having a body to live it in is a gift. . . We talk a lot about ego as an antagonist, but but a depleted ego can be equally detrimental as a full one. Thus, when it finally came time for me to foster love and gratitude for myself, it felt awkward and uncomfortable - like I was doing something wrong. Filling up with self love is different than being full of yourself. Don't let this be confused with conceit. “You as much as anyone else, is deserving of your love and affection.” . . We are taught to believe we should not love the skin we are in but it’s the only home we’ve got - that and this planet. Let’s radically love, cherish and care for both 🌎 . . Swimsuit was gifted by @summersalt and made from recycled materials ♻️ code: CAROLINE10 for a $10 gift code to use towards a purchase of $95+ . . #feedyourdivine #gosummersalt
  • ...but lean and little bit closer👃🏼Anyone else know the struggle?! 😂 6 or 7 years ago I stopped using aluminum and paraben laden deodorants. Since then I've tried dozens of different deodorant brands and formulas. I even made my own for a time. Most of them didn't work at all, would wear off after the slightest activity/sweat, or after 2 weeks it seemed like by body built up some kind of immunity to them...? Many also gave me a painful, bumpy, red rash under my arms. . . Finding a deodorant that is free from harsh ingredients, super gentle on my crazy sensitive skin, yet also effective and of course #vegan and #crueltyfree has not been easy for me (or pleasant for John 🤣). I finally found one that works for me though! It’s been almost two months since I started using @native deodorant and I’m so happy 🙌🏼 No more rashes or 3pm/post workout funk. I feel and smell fresh for well over 24 hours. Most importantly, I feel confident in the product and ingredients I’m putting on such a delicate area of my body. . . Seriously stoked and excited to share 20% with you guys using code: plantbasedblonde20 🌱 so you can actually smell like roses 😋🌹 . . #gonative #workingwithnative #sponsored
