I took two days off social media and my phone earlier this week to enjoy camping, hiking and a digital detox spa day at @scandinavewhis . It was so nice to have my phone on airplane mode and be surrounded by nature with no distractions! I will so be doing this more often, and have decided to keep my phone on airplane mode from 9 pm- 8 am so I get some me time w/o distractions ✨ Thank you @scandinavewhis spa for treating us to a lovey day! They promote a hydrotherapy cycle which is an ancient practice for the mind body and soul- it’s a hot then cold then relax cycle. It’s amazing for detoxification, increasing blood circulation and activating the lymphatic system. I felt so relaxed and at peace after this 🙏🏻 Photos line up: Scandinave spa in whistler, nairn falls campground, green lake, scandinave spa entrance and yummy vegan/ gluten free pizza at our campsite! It was the perfect little getaway 😊 would love to know if you’ve tried hydrotherapy- what are your thoughts? 👇🏻

So happy to live somewhere with so many places to disconnect and spend time in nature 🙏🏻🌊 My experience growing up in Toronto, Ontario with my family: a “hike” was a trail walk and our idea of an outdoor adventure was lying on the dock at the cottage 😅 In Vancouver, a weekend outdoors means climbing a mountain and I’m loving it! There’s beautiful hikes, day trips and beaches all over 😍I’ve always loved nature and now I’m spending so much more time stepping outside of my comfort zone on this beautiful earth 🌍 Next up is my first ever overnight camping trip 🏔 What’s your favourite way to spend time outdoors? ☀️🌿🌎

Big life moves over here ✌🏻 A month ago I packed up my life in my car with my boyfriend and cat and we drove across Canada from Ontario to B.C. After 5 days of driving, exploring and seeing the country we settled in Vancouver 💕It’s scary to leave most of your loved ones and move thousands of miles away. Change is scary, but change is also expansive ✨ Reminder, in case you need to hear this: things can be scary but that doesn’t mean you aren’t MEANT to do them. The best things in life don’t come out of your comfort zone, if your gut is saying do it- do it. Even if it’s scary, you’ll grow from it and you won’t wake up one day wishing you did. This has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! The slower, nature filled, beach filled, mountains everywhere, green juice, health, yoga coastal vibes out here is my shit 🙏🏻 I have been converted 😅 #westcoastbestcoast #sorrymomanddad 🌊 🏔 ☀️

Let’s talk beauty ✨ I have been using a variation of this home made mask for years. Especially in the summer when my face is getting so much sun it needs a little extra love! This mask has no chemicals, xenoestrogens or any other toxic substances. It’s made from all natural ingredients you have at home! Here’s the recipe 👇🏻 Mix 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, splash of apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp organic ground coffee & 1 tbsp raw honey (I use @eliashoney_ and LOVE it) This mask is perfect after sun exposure because it’s so hydrating and nourishing. The coffee grounds lightly exfoliate without being too harsh. Apple cider vinegar is antibacterial and antifungal, it’s great as a toner. The raw honey is the powerhouse in this mask, @eliashoney_ is my favourite brand and they are local to B.C! Raw honey calms inflammation and acne, moisturizes and balances your skin. I use this mask everyday in the summer and leave it on for 10 mins. You can also put some on your lips for exfoliation and hydration! If you want your tan to last it’s important to exfoliate and moisturizer often :) Let me know if you make your own face masks at home 🙏🏻😊

NOW 👉🏻 swipe for pre quarantine (Jan 2020) 6 months difference between these two photos. I just started back at the gym this week and it feels great 👍🏻 it’s been almost 5 months of at home workouts which was a great mix up but I’ve lost close to 15 lbs (mostly muscle I had built over years). I was able to try new workouts and get back into pilates and doing yoga everyday but I missed weight training. I lost a lot of muscle in my glutes because I wasn’t able to maintain or build using a kettlebell and 5 lb dumbbells at home😅 All this being said I am so grateful to be back in the gym and to get started on some new goals! Let me know below if you’re back at the gym and what YOUR goals are 👇🏻👏🏻

Father’s Day was a couple days ago so I decided to make a healthy, gluten free “brunch style” pizza for my dad. I was obsessed with this pizza crust about a year ago and haven’t made it since but I’m definitely going to get back into it! Its so versatile you can really add anything and it’s super healthy :) Socca pizza 🍕 🍳 Take a cast iron pan and put it in the oven while it pre heats at 425. Mix 1 cup chickpea flour with 1 cup water and let sit. Once pre heated put 1 tbsp olive oil on the pan and put it in the oven for a couple of minutes. Take the pan out and put the flour mixture on the pan and place in the oven for 5-8 mins. Take the pan out pour 1 tbsp olive oil on the crust then add toppings! I added vegan pesto, broccoli, avocado, spinach, shallots, garlic, and black olives cook for 8-10 mins. If adding an egg like I did, at about 7 mins pull the pan out, crack the egg in the middle and return to bake for 3 mins. Top with fresh parsley, S&P and enjoy 🙏🏻
