For Krystal wellness is a holistic approach that begins from within and culminates with how you interact socially and environmentally with the world. She believes that wellness is a lifestyle that you gain only through trial and error. And, in a multidimensional way she invites women and men of all ages to embark on their own journey. You don't have to be good at anything all you need is a deep curiosity, willingness and a sincere desire to be better than you were yesterday.
In her blog she writes to the everyday you and seeks to raise awareness to the growing mindfulness industry that is taking place all over the world today. Therefore, she also invites other professionals and talented spirits to work with her in various ways. She believes that with the right access to information, the proper resources and natural curiosity, people can be encouraged to lead healthy and well-balanced lives.
Five years ago Krystal decided to leave the hustle and bustle of NYC and find inner peace. Originally, she sought to remove herself from all the city life stressors and distractions, specifically the media influences and all the social ideals it imposed. By exposing herself to new experiences, people and ways of living Krystal was able to more deeply define her ambiguous sense of self and purpose.
She lived in the Dominican Republic for a couple of years without television and limited access to internet. In her spare time she took up various forms of yoga classes including AeroYoga, Astanga, Vinyasa, Hatha and Meridian stretching exercises. She experimented with many different forms meditations, Pranayama, mantra chanting, mandala painting and traditional Tibetan Rituals. She attempted to master the art of capoeira along with more mainstream fitness modules such as crossfit, paddle boarding, biking and running. To relax she got regular psychosomatic shiatsus, moxa therapy, applied kinesiology and polarity therapy. She explored her creative and artistic self through painting and journaling. And learned to cook with local fruits and vegetables while exploring many Ayurvedic remedies typical to the island.
During those years she also traveled to other continents including Europe, Asia, Central and South America, where she explored other wellness practices as well as cultures. After a couple years of living in Peru, a country rich in culture, biodiversity, mysticism, natural endeavors and adventure— she decided to move to Mexico. Through her blog she invites you to join her on her journey around the world and experience wellness at all its different levels.
Connect with her on Facebook, Instagram & Twitter.
Keep in mind that wellness means many different things to many different people and it changes depending on the time in your life. It is relative to your age, your goals, your needs, your strengths, your beliefs, your knowledge and your desires. As you come to know more about yourself, you will come to understand more of what you want. Wellness has many different dimensions from your physical body, to your spiritual practices, to your overall knowledge and your desires for more. How you interact with the people and the world around you also influences your wellness. True wellness requires an honest examination of who you think you are, who you are actually being and who you want to become.
With todays world of information, trends, distractions and social ideals many of us can feel lost or disconnected from who we truly are or who we want to be. Therefore as I invite you to be a wellness seeker, I invite you to get to know yourself, to get to know what you like or don’t like; what you need or have too much of - I invite you to find balance in all the dimensions of life. Try things out, fail, learn, grow, evolve and ultimately become who you were meant to be. Because being lost is the beginning to finding yourself and what you want. It enables you to identify the things that mean most to you and ask the questions you need to ask.
Through my interactive blog, I along with some other wellness seekers will share some of our very own personal wellness stories, know hows and insights. However, if you seek a more personal experience to jump start your wellness journey you can work with me personally through one on one wellness coaching from any part of the world. Or if you are seeking a deeper experience I welcome you to fully immerse yourself with any of our Insightful Retreats where you can explore different wellness dimensions first hand.
I hope The Wellness Insight inspires you to seek your soul, try out new things and embark on your own journey to the wellness you deserve!
