EP52 "On Being Brave" Hellen Yuan

HELLEN is a collection of thoughtfully curated self-care tools created by Hellen Yuan, a New York-based wellness practitioner, foodie, designer and entrepreneur with over 20 years’ experience in the luxury, ready-to-wear fashion industry. Born in Taiwan and raised in Los Angeles, Hellen’s life has always been a blend of east and west mentalities.  After having experienced several losses in her life, Hellen found solace in methods of healing more closely related to her Taiwanese roots. She sought out many nontraditional healers, and eventually studied to become a Reiki practitioner herself. Part of this healing process also involved bath soaks; Hellen started developing layered formulas with potent healing mixtures of essential oils, salts, flowers, crystals, and sound. HELLEN launched with four hand-crafted bath brew recipes that address different areas of a person’s life, correspond with the four elements, and open four of the chakras. In 2019, Hellen furthered her study of plant medicine by becoming a certified Aromatherapist through the renowned National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy. Favorite tonic: Every morning I make a juice tonic for myself – I call it my "Omega Cold Pressed Juice"! The ingredients include lemon, mint, lavender, ginger, beets, carrots, apples, turmeric and orange. It really helps build my immunity, which is so important during this time, and it is super anti-inflammatory.  I also create infused water that I drink throughout the day to further boost my immune system, detoxify, help with digestion issues. Plus, it is a great way to keep hydrated and it is super low in calories! I added a few of my favorite recipes below: Ginger/ Rosemary or Mint / Lime or Lemon Lavender/ Cucumber/ Lemon Strawberry/ Mint/ Lemon You can find Hellen at:  www.hellen.nyc @hellennewyork --- Are you ready for your transformation?

EP51 "Keep it Simple" Jules Miller

London native Jules Miller was no stranger to supplements when she founded The Nue Co. Having grown up with a doctor for a grandfather who specialized in the study of Vitamin B12, she knew the basics. It was only after she personally turned to supplements as a means to combat IBS, however, that she started to see the problems within the industry. She found that, as a general rule, 50% of the ingredients in supplements are composed of synthetic fillers, bulking agents, and processed ingredients –– all of which made her IBS worse. Disillusioned by brands touting misleading messaging, questionable ingredients, and poor quality products, Jules realized that she could create a solution. She left her job as a marketing executive to take on the supplement industry, developing products that utilized scientific research, clinically tested and clean ingredients, and the best practices from alternative medicines like Ayurveda. By the time the brand launched in 2017, Jules had become a pioneer, redefining the entire category by creating products like Debloat Food + Prebiotic, which has consistently sold-out year after year and which many customers have called “life-changing.”  When she’s not at work redefining the supplement category and taking on the wellness industry, Jules advocates for mental health awareness, gender agnostic brands, and sustainability. Jules splits her time between New York and London with her husband, Charlie, and their beloved french bulldog, Lola. Her favorite Ritual: One of my favourite morning/evening self-care rituals is to make my own interpretation of golden milk - the Debloat Latte. I create it by mixing our DEBLOAT + PREBIOTIC supplement, that carries a combination of organic turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, in with warm frothy coconut milk...it’s delicious and great for soothing the stomach.

This is what her work embodies.

EP45 "Deep Soul Healing" Angela Shore

About Angela: "I have thrived under the tutelage of a master healer, a seasoned medicine woman who is my confidant and soul sister today. After many healings and teachings, I received my certification at the Kerala Ayurveda Academy, and studied at School of Ayurveda and Panchakarma in Kerala, India. My unquenchable desire to help others find peace, relief, and answers is a continuous passion. I have a natural philosophy of holistic wellness and ecological focus that plays into every aspect of the brand; from the organic, pure ingredients to the humane ethics employed every step of the way. I’m wild about anthropology, photography, art, design, music, hospitality, wellness, ecology, exotic foods, spices, and everything that smells beautiful. I’m a traveler to my very core and find immense fulfillment in documenting, and sharing my journeys. The most transformative travel experience I’ve encountered was attending the largest Spiritual Human Gathering called Kumbh Mela in India. I’m a bit of a rock & roll yogi and sometimes rock shaman, so you may find me at a Patti Smith show, and I never leave home without wearing a turquoise cuff or two. My style and approach to Clean Beauty is a constant innovative creative process. Above all, I believe in living and practicing a balanced life, and loving Mother Earth."

I love food, I am 95% vegetarian, sometimes a vegan :) I do honor our animals to heart. I can eat a platter of sushi easily…with love.  I can not live without my ---YOGA. I’m at it 4-5 times a week, my go-to for calming, OM +++ body strength, and sometimes my tears for a good release as I am healing a broken heart with losing my Aunt Idell. Grieving is real.  Most of all, nature & sunlight is my HIGH. I love to go on adventures and hikes when time allows. I burn a lot of calories by walking naturally.  I’m pretty simple in my skincare routine, between cleansing with Dr. Bronners tea tree for face & body + Youth To the People’s kale, green tea, spinach vitamins…superfood cleanser for face, packed with antioxidants ….sulfate—phthalate free… To follow, I always OIL face and BODY…start my day with Jiva’s ATMAN (SPIRIT) BODY or THUNDERBIRD BODY...and in the evening 1967 BODY is my very own date night oil  My extra face favs on hand in the cabinet *Touch Balancing Face Oil by PAOLA, Josh Rosebrook and Poppy and Someday’s face creams.

Following this, Heloise took a position with influencer Garance Doré, to work on her affiliate program and secure brand partnerships within the beauty and fashion industries. To focus on her love of wellness and beauty, Heloise continued at a PR agency in NYC as the Beauty Director for a variety of brands across skincare, body care, hair care, makeup and wellness. She launched Note PR in July of 2019 with co-founder Shannon Comstock. Shannon Comstock, co-founder of beauty and wellness agency Note PR After graduating from the University of Michigan, Shannon Comstock started her career at Sotheby’s, where she managed press campaigns across jewelry and fine arts divisions. She later served as Account Manager at Project MM, a boutique, Brooklyn-based PR agency in the luxury beauty and grooming space.

A favorite non-negotiable self care ritual or routine OR a favorite recipe or tonic. Heloise: I love to soak in the bath with either HELLEN’s magical Reiki-inflused bath brews or Bathing Culture’s Dipsea Soak, loaded with hemp-derived CBD. Bathing is great way to process a long day of work! Sometimes I even bring a notebook and pen with me, so I can do a little brainstorming and planning for the days ahead. 20 minutes is just enough time for my muscles to relax and the creative juices to flow!  Shannon: Something I could never give up are my daily long walks with my dog, Penny. Getting outside and moving first thing in the morning is a refreshing way to start the day, rather than jumping right into the mad dash commute. And at night, I've been loving my aromatherapy inhaler from our client and friend Hellen Yuan. She's created a really lovely formula that encourages restfulness, and it's the perfect way to wind down in the evening.
