"Wellness is not the latest fad. Wellness is listening to what your body is telling you. It’s paying attention to your body and the subtle cues it gives when it needs more or less of something. It’s also investigating the root cause of what’s going on rather than masking the symptoms with a pill or by ignoring them all together." - Christina Tidwell

"I truly believe beauty is inside and out. Inward beauty is rooted in self-love, self-awareness and self-enhancement, therefore it’s important that we pay attention to these things and how we nurture them, but I also feel that it’s totally fine for a person to care about their outward appearance. We have a right to that. " - Minaa B.
