Wellness Wednesday: Natural Remedies for Managing Stress and Anxiety

Root has always provided me with knowledgable, challenging, and talented Yoga teachers.  Some of these kind & caring teachers I can personally recommend are Melissa Barber, Erin Wilson, Brittany Kerr, and Erika Bolstad.  If that wasn't enough, the variety of classes and a workable schedule keeps me coming back on a regular basis.  They have a beautiful NW studio and a lot of amenities (sauna, warm tea, showers, relaxing atmosphere).  I highly recommend anyone interested in just starting or wanting to grow their yoga practice to join the Root community.

I work nearby and pop in for lunch a few times a month when I have the time.  I leave feeling more relaxed, as though I just took a little time for me. (even though it's just lunch!) They have wonderful nutritious lunches featuring nutrient dense foods. I sometimes add an egg to make it more substantial. The curry, Japanese breakfast plate and greens dish are some of my favorites.  Their shakes are pricey, but oh-so-good and filling! I absolutely love their food and their vibe.  The music is very calming. I haven't tried their services yet, but look forward to it.

I LOVE Root Whole Body! As a wellness professional, I really appreciate the well-rounded experience they have created for a person's health and mental/emotional well-being. It's really lovely! The yoga instructors are all amazing, the food is delicious and the alternative care staff are fantastic. The chiropractic sessions I had recently, have dramatically reduced pain from a couple injuries and accelerated healing. I couldn't be more pleased. I'm so glad to be a Whole Body Health member! 

This little urban oasis is a spa and holistic health center wrapped into one. I have acupuncture, an infrared sauna treatment, facial and massage there. In between the treatments I get to hang out in the cutest of tea rooms. They also have a full cafe with vegan option which are SO SO good (especially the Japanese breakfast bowl made veg).

LOVE the food here. The cafe is organic + refined sugar-free. They have bowls, juices, smoothies, & tonics! Everything starts as vegan and you can add egg, smoked salmon, goat chèvre etc. also everything is gluten-free unless you get the soba noodles or a whole wheat wrap! Will def go back.
