Hello Autumn 🍁

This morning, I took out my headlamp for my early run, and it hit me—it’s officially that time of year. The air feels crisper, the mornings are darker, and I’m starting to crave rhythm and structure again.

Summer will always be my favourite—hikes, paddleboarding, lazy lake days, long evenings with friends—but there’s something about the first day of fall that invites us to exhale. It’s a gentle reminder to slow down, ground ourselves, and welcome routine.

Our gardens and fruit stands are brimming with the last of the tomatoes, corn, peppers, and cabbage, while soups, chilis, and hearty casseroles call us back into the kitchen. Eating seasonally is a way of moving in tune with nature—just as the leaves let go, we can also reflect on what no longer serves us and set an intention for the months ahead.

For me, this is where my three pillars always come alive:�🌱 Nutrition – Nourishing with seasonal foods that warm, ground, and balance.�🌳 Mindset – Setting intentions, reflecting, and releasing what feels heavy.�🍂 Movement in Nature – Hiking as the colours change, feeling the crisp air, and honouring our bodies with mindful movement.

As women, we often prioritize everyone else—kids, family, work, community. But fall asks us: What about you?

What is one thing you’re ready to let go of this season, and one intention you’d love to bring in for yourself?

I’d love to hear your thoughts below 🍂💛

Here’s to cozy evenings, golden trails, and the magic of new beginnings.

Hello again 💛 It’s been a little while since I’ve appeared here. I took time this summer to slow down, recalibrate, and deepen my journey of holistic healing. I’ve missed this space, and I’m pleased to reconnect.

For those new here, I’m Candi a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and Certified Life Coach based in Creston, BC. I also work as a nutritionist and guide for one of the world’s top-rated health reset programs in the Kootenays. I grew up surrounded by these mountains, where nature has always been my greatest teacher.

Summer is my favourite season, filled with hikes, mountain biking, paddleboarding, and lazy days at the lake (I even learned to crochet this year thanks to my best friend and her daughters!). But now, as the days grow shorter and the air turns cooler, I find myself craving rhythm, routine, and grounding once more. Just as the trees change and gardens overflow with coloured peppers, squash, and root vegetables, our bodies also align with the seasons—seeking quieter evenings, nourishing foods, and deeper connections.

That’s the core of my work: supporting women in finding time to move their bodies in nature, reflect, connect, and nourish. And as a little sneak peek — I’m excited to be launching a new Fall Hiking + Holistic Wellness Program in October that brings all these elements together. More details will follow soon.

For now, I’d love to know, what’s been grounding you as we head into this new season? 🍂✨

🌞 Slowing Down for Summer (But Exciting Things Are Coming…)

Summer is one of my favourite seasons — long, light-filled days, hikes that start early and end with breathtaking views, lazy afternoons at the lake with friends and family, fresh produce straight from the garden or market, and slow mornings sipping tea in the sunshine.

This is my moment to pause, reconnect, slow down a bit, spend more time in nature with family and friends, and leave room for inspiration to arrive.

✨ So I’ll be stepping away from social media for the next few weeks — soaking up these beautiful moments.

But don’t worry… I’ll be back soon with some exciting things for Fall 🍂

🍁 A new seasonal wellness program

🥾 The return of the Women’s Hiking Group (our Spring series was such a beautiful success — thank you to all who joined!)

🌿 More nature, nourishment, and meaningful connection

If you’re looking for a reset or want to stay informed, keep an eye on my website — my email newsletter is launching soon (along with a gift to support your wellness journey!).

Until then, I wish you a summer filled with sunshine, stillness, joy, and moments that reconnect you with yourself.

With heart and gratitude,

Candi 🌸

🌞 Hello, Summer! 🌿

There’s something magical about this season — the way the sun lingers a little longer, the days invite us outside, and the rhythm of life seems to soften just enough to let us breathe a bit deeper.

Summer is nature’s invitation to slow down, savour, and reconnect with the land, with others, and with ourselves.

This is the season for:

✨ Long hikes that leave your body tired and your soul full

🍓 Simple meals made from what’s fresh and in season

🌼 Evenings barefoot in the grass, or watching the sun dip behind the mountains

💬 Conversations that happen on porches, trails, and picnic blankets

As a Holistic Nutritionist and Life Coach, our wellness is closely connected to the earth's cycles, and summer is an ideal time to embrace joy, mindfulness, and play. 🌻

Whether you’re resetting your health goals, seeking more energy and clarity, or simply wanting to feel more grounded, summer is a great time to start. And it doesn’t need to be perfect.

💫 Looking for a fresh start this season?

🌞 Summer Solstice: A Time to Soak It In 🌿

I can feel it in my bones — that turning point where spring’s momentum softens into summer’s golden stretch.

The light lingers longer, the berries ripen, and there's this deep invitation to slow down and soak it all in.
As a Leo and lover of summer, this season calls to something within me. Morning runs in the early light, bike rides in shorts, and paddleboarding after work while the sun kisses the water — I live for this. Yet, I often wish time would pause, holding on a little longer and not rushing through the sweetness.

The Summer Solstice marks the longest day of the year — and it's more than a seasonal shift. It’s a reminder that we can bloom, expand, and celebrate how far we’ve come. 🌻

As we cross this threshold into summer, I invite you to reflect:
✨ What lights you up right now?�
✨ Where in your life are you ready to shine more brightly?�
✨ What slight shift could bring you more joy, energy, or connection this season?

This is the work I love — helping women realign with their health and rhythms through food, nature, and mindset. Whether seeking more energy, hormone balance, or a reset connected to nature’s cycles, this is your reminder: you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.

🌿 The body knows how to come into balance — sometimes it just needs the space, the support, and a seasonal nudge.

👉 If you’re ready to feel more grounded and vibrant this summer, I would love to walk alongside you. Feel free to message me or visit the link in my bio to explore how we can work together — from personalized coaching to seasonal wellness plans that align with your life.

Wishing you warmth, light, and long, lingering sunsets this solstice.�~ Candi 🌸

🌿 Your Nervous System Needs Nature 🌿

Last week, I sat barefoot on a mossy rock by the river, with the sun on my face and surrounded by cottonwood trees. I hadn’t planned to stop; I was merely out for a quick walk between client calls. However, something urged me to pause. To be still.

As I sat there, I felt my shoulders drop. My breath deepened, and my thoughts slowed. I wasn’t trying to meditate or fix anything—I was simply present, and that was enough.

As a professional hiking guide at one of the world’s top health and fitness retreats in the Kootenays, I’ve witnessed firsthand how nature softens our edges. I see guests—busy professionals, tired caregivers, high performers—arrive tense and overstimulated. However, something shifts after a few days of mountain air, morning movement, and forest trails. Their pace slows. Their breath steadies. They remember how it feels to feel good.

And it’s not just a feeling—science backs this up:

✨ A study in Frontiers in Psychology found that just 20 minutes outdoors significantly lowers cortisol, the stress hormone.

✨ Research on Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing) in Japan indicates that natural exposure lowers heart rate and blood pressure while activating the parasympathetic nervous system, which is your “rest and restore” state.

In a world that continually pulls us into doing, planning, and achieving, nature calls us back to simply being.

🌞 With summer here, remember that healing is just outside your door. Let the sun warm your skin, walk barefoot on the grass, sit by the water, or breathe under the trees. You don’t need a full-day hike to feel better; you need a few moments of connection.

Sometimes, your nervous system needs the quiet hum of the earth.

I'd love to hear—what’s your favourite way to reset in nature?

🌿 See What’s Been Happening in the 90-Day Spring Awakening Program. 🌸

Creston’s First Women’s Hiking Group
Aligning your wellness journey with the seasons yields powerful results. This spring, we’ve been doing just that. For the past two months, a wonderful group of women has come together to move, nourish, and reconnect through weekly hikes, seasonal nutrition, and mindset work grounded in nature. And we’re not done yet—there’s still one more month to go!

✨ Here’s what participants are saying:

“It’s re-sparked my love of hiking.”

“I’m leaving my comfort zone and exploring new places.”

“This is helping me focus on what matters — and grounding me to follow through.”

🍎 Nutrition
Each week, we explore a seasonal theme that boosts energy, elevates mood, and balances hormones. From liver-friendly greens to gut-friendly snacks, our food pillar emphasizes genuine nourishment, ensuring it’s both accessible and delicious in everyday life.

🧠 Mindset
Through affirmations, reflection prompts, and weekly journaling themes, we delve into what it means to create lasting change from within. The women in this group have opened their hearts, taken courageous steps, and built resilience through every chapter.

🥾 Movement in Nature
Our Monday hikes have become sacred—a rhythm of moving our bodies, connecting, and exploring the surrounding trails. The laughter, the quiet moments, the muddy boots, and the mountain views… these are the memories that linger.

💬 Favourites so far?

“Learning new trails, I didn’t know existed.”

“Having accountability and following through.”

“Being with other like-minded women.”

“Your support and leadership.” 💛

🍂 Coming This Fall:

If this post speaks to something you’ve been craving — more nature, connection, nourishment, and clarity — then stay tuned for my Fall Seasonal Program. We’ll continue to align with the rhythms of the earth, our bodies, and the beautiful community of women walking this path together.

🌸 Summer Rhythm — Not Summer Slump

This season can be a whirlwind — travel, long days, busy weekends, and flexible schedules.

As a mom, business owner, nutritionist, and hiking guide at one of the top health and wellness retreats in the world (Mountain Trek) — I understand how easily routines can get lost in the mix.

As we enter June, summer feels just around the corner. With it comes the invitation to shift from rigid routines to supportive rhythms.

When I adhere to a few simple practices — like early morning walks before the heat, preparing vibrant meals on Sunday, or pausing outside barefoot — I feel anchored, even amidst the summer swirl.

🌿 This week, choose a rhythm that helps you feel grounded. Then revisit it repeatedly.

💬 I’d love to know: What is one ritual or rhythm that helps you stay aligned during this time of year?
