The Holistic Hippie Podcast
With chronic disease and mental health conditions on the rise, more and more people are looking to holistic health practices to combat the negative impacts of living in the modern world. The host of this show is Jessi, aka The Holistic Hippie, a Registered Holistic Nutritionist & Lifestyle Coach, Yoga Teacher & Teacher Trainer, Reiki Practitioner, Past-Life Regressionist, and Student of Core Shamanism and Ceremonial Plant-Medicine. Most importantly - she's human. Jessi spent over 10 years struggling with her physical and mental health which is what has inspired her to pursue a career in wellness and why she is so deeply passionate about inspiring others to transform their own health & well-being. This is definitely not your average Health & Wellness podcast. Jessi is obsessed with spiritual growth and transformation and she created this show as a catalyst for collective change; a way for us to "do the work" together and to connect in a conscious community. Every week she delves into a new topic which she explores through the lens of holistic living, sharing openly and honestly from her own experiences. She prides herself on being real and sharing the things that most people won't in order to bring to light the fact that none of us are alone on this journey. If you are ready to take responsibility for your physical, mental, and spiritual health and move from surviving to truly thriving in this life, this is the podcast for you!

Episode 7: The Spiritual Practice of Nourishment
In this episode I talk about the myriad of ways that we can begin to shift our perception to see our diet and way of eating as a spiritual practice, and also to consider our diet to encompass everything we consume including media, music, conversation, thought forms, etc. I cover a number of different ways that I began looking at diet differently and offer advice on little shifts that you can make to start seeing things a bit differently. To master the diet is truly to master the mind, and so diet is a very relevant way to practice mindfulness. Our paradigm needs to shift from the idea that a healthy diet is a restrictive diet. Consider that our conventional and highly processed & refined diet is actively restricting the body of nutrients daily while making improvements to the diet to include whole foods is actually rewarding the body with essential nutrients and life force. Making these small shifts internally are very powerful when it comes to making any lasting changes in our lives since often how we do one thing is how we do all things.
