What Does Cheating Feel Like: My Breakup Story

December 9, 2019 By jaclyn 10 Comments

Yum

The truth is breakups are tough, no matter what. Sometimes, they can be a lot more painful than others. Cheating makes them so much more complicated, hurtful and raw. I chose to finally share my story (one year later) because I needed to give myself time to gather my thoughts. I didn’t want to write this post in anger. It is not my intention to share personal details for financial gain or validation. But after sharing that I was going through a breakup in January 2019 (without any details), and being vulnerable about that, I received so many messages from people. Even months after it, I had people reaching out to me asking for advice getting over a breakup as they were going through one. So, I have chosen to share more and I remain committed to bringing awareness to subjects that usually don’t get talked about. For me, cheating was one of those topics. What does cheating feel like exactly? Read on to find out…

Self Care After a Breakup: Five Things I Learned

June 20, 2019 By jaclyn 1 Comment

self care after a breakup

I can safely say (and I am sure almost anyone would agree) breakups SUCK! Recently, in November/December 2018 I went through my first major heartbreak and it nearly broke me. In fact, for a time, it did break me. I couldn’t focus on anything, had zero appetite, couldn’t sleep and cried more than I ever thought possible. When I was going through it, I didn’t think I’d ever get past it. It felt like the hurt, anger, disappointment and sadness would stay with me forever. In the months that followed the breakup, I managed to work on a few things that really helped me feel stronger than I had ever felt before. Self care after a breakup is possible and today I am sharing five ways I learned how to practice self-care.

How the Binge Restrict Cycle Keeps You At War With Your Body

March 1, 2019 By jaclyn 2 Comments

binge restrict cycle

Have you ever heard about someone being happy on the current diet they are on? Chances are slim that if you’ve ever been on a diet or restricting foods in some way that you felt happy doing so. I can remember back to my first diet at age 15, I felt miserable. I was restricting my calories to 1100-1200 a day, working out more and more and I was miserable. Being so miserable about my body and food made me miss out on life way to much. Plus it kept me stuck in the binge restrict cycle for years without even realizing it. Today I want to share with you how restriction and food deprivation makes you miserable and what to focus on instead, because there is so much more to focus on, trust me!

How to Practice Self Love: Tips From Women in Wellness

January 3, 2019 By jaclyn 3 Comments

how to practice self love

Self love is something that a lot of women struggle with from a young age and unfortunately continue to deal with as they get older. There are so many reasons that self love is difficult to practice in reality. Things like the images we see on TV and in the media that secretly tell us we aren’t good enough, limitations we place on ourselves, diet culture and the list goes on. It is my personal belief that self love is something that is very individual to each person. What works for one person won’t work quite the same for someone else. So finding what works for you and putting in the work is essential. Which is why I wanted to reach out to some amazing women that I admire in the health and wellness industry to see how they practice self love in their everyday life. I hope that this post inspires you to try something new when it comes to self love or just encourages you to be a bit kinder to yourself. If you are interested, please check out my 21-Day Self Love Challenge that starts January 7th! But if you’re reading this after, you can join anytime and complete it on your own time.

What is Intuitive Eating: And How it Helped Me

what is intuitive eatingI’ve been talking about intuitive eating for over a year now and I’ve written about it a lot over the year. But, it occurred to me that I have yet to delve deeper into what is intuitive eating. And so I wanted to share the basics of intuitive eating and also share how changing the way I eat and look at food changed my whole life. …

Self Love After Weight Gain: How To Change Your Mindset, Not Your Dress Size

February 21, 2018 By jaclyn 16 Comments

Yum

self love after weight gainSelf love after weight gain is tough, it requires a deep mindset shift and today I am sharing four mindeset shifts that I hope will inspire you to learn to show yourself love no matter what. We are more than half way through February, the month after January otherwise known as Diet-uary. Uhhhmmm, did I just make that up, yes, yes I did. But you know how it goes, January is the month where many attempt to start new healthy habits, diet and of course lose weight. The obsession with weight loss is so real which is why the weight loss industry is a billion dollar business. They work because they prey on your emotions, your fears and society’s unbelievable and unattainable standards of beauty. If January is national diet month, then February is love month, with Valentine’s Day and all. But, what if instead of focusing all our love on things, we turned that inwards and focused on self love. Learning how to show yourself love after weight gain is one of the hardest but most rewarding things I learned how to do. I want to share some mindset shifts that really made self love after weight gain possible.

Guest Post: How Self Care Helped Heal My Relationship with Food

February 13, 2018 By jaclyn 6 Comments

I am so excited to introduce fellow Holistic Nutritionist and friend, Rachel Molenda! She is talking all about self care activities and what self care really means. I wrote about self care here, and I love how Rachel agrees that self care isn’t about going to a spa or getting a massage (though those are nice). It is about the deeper work that you need to do. I love how Rachel connects self care activities with helping to heal your relationship to food. I hope you enjoy this guest post as much as I did reading it!…

What is Self Care And Why It Matters

November 30, 2017 By jaclyn Leave a Comment

Yum

what is self careSelf care seems to be gaining a lot of traction in the health and wellness space. And the health and wellness space just keeps on growing, but what is self care exactly? I love that self care is getting some much needed attention, but I think that it can become a little muddled in what it really means to practice self care. Sure, taking a bath in water dusted with rose petals and fancy spas are all great options, but they ignore some of the bigger things. The truth is that sometimes self care isn’t at all Instagram worthy….

Hi! I’m Jaclyn, a Holistic Nutritionist and foodie. Over the past few years, I have developed a deep appreciation and understanding of food, wellness and self-love.
