Hello! My title is Tatyana and I used to be born and raised in Montreal, Canada. My wellness journey actually solely began in my mid 20’s. After years of feeling misplaced, spending an excessive amount of time on poisonous relationships, partying an excessive amount of, not honoring or caring for my physique, & working at jobs that didn’t gentle me up, I began to dig deeper.
For many of my life, I felt very misplaced & confused with what my objective was – what I used to be placed on this earth to do. I struggled at school & didn’t really feel obsessed with any jobs that had been on the market. After years of feeling numb, feeling uninspired in my work & my day after day life, & feeling like I used to be barely scratching the floor of my potential, I knew I needed to make a change. I used to be bored with the limiting beliefs that had been replaying in my thoughts (that I wasn’t ok, or sensible sufficient, or worthy). I used to be bored with feeling like I used to be dwelling my life on auto-pilot with no actual objective or vacation spot in sight.
I noticed that each one the problems I used to be having began with me; the damaging concepts I had of myself & the shortage of self-love & self-awareness that I had. I used to be continually in search of happiness & validation outdoors of myself. I noticed that to be able to heal, I needed to look inside, I needed to begin loving myself, & working on daily basis to turn into the most effective model of myself.
I used to be round 27 years outdated after I determined to purchase my first self-development books. I walked into my native bookstore and picked up the next books: You Are a Badass: Find out how to Cease Doubting Your Greatness and Begin Residing an Superior Life by Jen Sincero, Mastering your Imply Woman by Melissa Ambrosini, & The Universe Has Your Again by Gabby Bernstein. Studying these books gave me a way of peace in figuring out that I wasn’t alone. It additionally helped figuring out that my solely limits had been those inside my very own thoughts.
Since then, I’ve learn so many superb books & have been mentored by actually inspiring individuals and I’ve additionally realized to follow gratitude and fall again in love with life. I actually attempt to give attention to being within the current second and having fun with the little issues; a heat cup of espresso, contemporary sheets on the finish of a protracted day, a sizzling bathe, an opulent skincare routine, the sensation of the nice and cozy solar on my pores and skin, a superb plate of pasta 🙂 I believe that we’re so centered on the issues that we don’t have and we’re at all times striving for larger and higher, that we neglect to be glad about the issues we do have.
I’m 31 and I’m deeper into my wellness journey now greater than ever. To me, wellness begins along with your thoughts; the ideas you suppose, the concepts you’ve got of your self which is why I’m so obsessed with mindset & self-development as a result of I consider all of it begins there. I’m additionally tremendous obsessed with meditation, shifting my physique, consuming entire meals, & doing what feels good.
