Heal Your Body

We always think it’s helpful to start at the beginning. So be sure to check out the Story Behind Root + Revel and how Kate, our founder, healed her body naturally. We’re all about living naturally, without sacrifice here, with a particular focus on complete holistic health and wellbeing.

Here are a few healing essential guides:

Intuitive Eating

Let’s talk about food! We follow intuitive eating, an evidence-based model and self-care eating framework integrating instinct, emotion, and rational thought that ultimately teaches you how to be the expert of your body, rather than leaning on outside rules to make your eating decisions. Intuitive eating does not mean ignoring health; rather, it’s recognizing that nutrition and health are NOT a one-size-fits-all approach.

Intrigued? Read this Q&A with an Intuitive Eating Nutritionist, and then check out Why Diets Don’t Work + What to Do Instead and How Intuitive Eating and the Anti-Inflammatory Can Co-Exist.

Holistic Health

By now, you’re probably starting to get the hang of our philosophy here at R+R: we take a truly holistic approach to achieve true wellbeing, because health is not just about your body, the foods you eat, or exercising. It’s also your mindset, how you take care of yourself, how you manage your emotions, what kind of relationships you have in your life–it’s the ALL of it! 

First, you have GOT to prioritize self-care. Stop saying “I don’t have the time” and take 5 minutes RIGHT NOW to choose something from our 50 Ways to Practice Self Care List that you will commit to doing TODAY.
