Vibrant Aesthetics

You ever ask the universe for a sign and it gives you one?

And then another and another and another until you’re like Oh My God Uni- I GET IT. No more signs!😵‍💫

This here is one.

No, this isn’t me moving out early.

This is what i walked into 30 minutes before my first patient because our water heater leaked and the fixers of said water heater moved everything out of my office and into my treatment room.

So instead of settling and prepping and getting ready for my first patient - i sweated my ass off moving things around so I could have a somewhat presentable space for my patients.

Oh and did I mention they found asbestos?

I almost cried. Then i almost screamed (well, i did scream a little). Then I talked to my husband who said a few curse words for me and encouraged me along my way.

I share this not for pity because right now I’m laughing. Cackling even at the audacity of the universe.

Maybe she knew I needed another few signs to settle my soul after making the decision to close.

Maybe she just wanted to laugh too.

Cheers to the signs we seek, manifest, and find - the mind is such a powerful space ✨💗

Nothing but love and thankfulness for the last nearly 3 years 🫶🏼

Did you know the IPL laser we have at Vibrant can target Rosacea and broken red vessels on your face?

These results were after only ONE treatment 🤯

After each treatment we can get rid of more and more redness and target the lighter pinks to really clear up and brighten the skin with a series of 3 treatments.

Book your IPL treatment today and stop covering up redness with concealer in as little as 4 weeks 🥹

The way our body and brain snuggles us up when we do things we know they love 🥹🥰😁

I know this pair is polarizing (just like the world of wellness🫣) but I’m here for it. At least for now ❤️

Do they have a name yet? Tayvis? Traylor?!!!! Team Traylor 💖🤣

Not sure if it’s because it’s the holidays, or my birthday a few weeks ago, or 7 weeks of sinus congestion, or just random post-hot tub musings, but here are a few things that have been on my mind the last bit:

✨ it’s ok to feel and to feel it all. And if it’s a feeling you don’t love - that’s ok to, because it will change and move on. That’s why they’re called eMotions, not eStandstills❤️ so if you’re having a hard day or week or month of feelings - know it’s ok to sit in them for a while and also know they will evolve just like you.

✨ “The universe is always conspiring in your favor” a quote adapted from The Alchemist has been one I’ve started including in my affirmations. While toxic positivity is exactly that - toxic - you can decide or even pretend that the events that happen to you are somehow For you. A lesson, a perspective, a moment to uncover thankfulness, a choice to slow down even if you don’t feel like you can.

✨ At the end of the day we’re just animals who need to be fed, watered, and loved. Feeling sick for so long and feeling burnt out owning 3 businesses and momming 2 girls has humbled me HARD this season. And rather than waiting for a day when it’s all magically better - I know I need to get back to the basic, simple things.

I can’t always cook three amazing nutrient rich meals every day. But I Can focus on drinking enough water today.

I can’t always exercise and lift weights but I Can MOVE my body and lungs by dancing to Frozen songs or singing Bad Blood with Aspen in the car.

It’s not all or nothing. It’s not big or small. It’s simple. Choose simple over complicated overwhelm and your chances of success sky rocket 🚀

Unless it’s sourdough bread starter and baking. Then it will always be big and complicated.

Struggle with bloating, excess gas, or stomach pain?

Some of these things could be to blame…

Here are a few tips to addressing bloating - but first - make sure you follow .np for wellness tips and tricks ✨

1. Slow down when you eat
2. Practice breath work
3. Drink plenty of water
4. Get your gut tested for bacterial infections like h. Pylori
5. And test for other bacterial imbalances

Testing means you can target specific imbalances instead of guessing what your gut needs ✨

And make sure you keep an eye out because there will be an amazing Black Friday deal on gut testing 🥳❤️

“These are a few of the scariest things” (in Sound of Music singing)

What’s in your scariest haunted house?

And what are you going to be for Halloween??? 💀🎃👻

It seems impossible to figure out what foods or drinks or behaviors are “good” or “bad” these days.

That’s not just because there’s so much information out there - it’s because there is very little black and white advice.

Most of my wellness clients come to me thinking coffee is the issue and “if they could only give it up” their problems would go away.

But is it coffee? Or is it the way you’re drinking it?

Coffee has some of the highest concentrations of antioxidants out there and isn’t inherently “bad”.

But you’ve got to meet your body, your gut, your nervous system halfway and help it out.

Curious how? DM me ☕️ and I’ll send you my favorite ways to enjoy my daily cup ✨

Trouble falling asleep?
Trouble STAYING asleep?

Give a bedtime routine a try.

Morning routines tend to get all the attention but a bedtime routine is just as important.

These simple things do more than relax you - they send signals to your brain and body that it’s time to wind down and get ready for rest.

Our society trains us to think we don’t need rest but it’s as vital as breath and water.

It’s how we recharge and recover from the day.

It’s how we store memories.

And for our tiny people in our homes - it’s how they *grow*. (Did you know the hormone that allows us to grow and develop - Human Growth Hormone - is only released when sleeping? This is why teenagers need more sleep…they aren’t lazy, it’s primal).

You don’t need all of these things to have a solid routine either, just one or two activities are all your body usually needs to settle down.

But if you’re finding yourself wired at night and extra anxious/amped, it might be helpful to start with a longer routine at first to really help regulate your circadian rhythm.

These techniques and more are part of my 1:1 wellness program where I help identify imbalances in your daily rhythm that are impacting your mood, gut, sleep, and patience ✨

I’ve got quite a few new followers (hiii👋🏼) so thought I would do a little reintroduction!

✨I’m a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and also a wellness consultant focused on women in their 30s/40s as they approach the dreaded menopause *gasp* years

I have over 15 years of healthcare experience and I currently practice as an aesthetics provider .candlernc specializing in Botox, lip filler, and laser services.

As a wellness consultant I prioritize nervous system regulation to get women out of the fight or flight mom mode and heal their gut woes so they can actually be present and enjoy their lives (yes, it’s possible!)

And here are 5 non health rated random facts about me 🤗

1. I love candy corn
2. I hate haunted houses and scary movies
3. I moved to Alaska by myself when I was 26 (well I had my two dogs with me and that’s all that mattered)
4. It’s impossible for me to pick ‘favorites’ (fav food, song, artist, etc)
5. I’m an enneagram 4w3 so I’m always down to be moody, ditch the shallow chitchat and embrace a rainy fall day

Tell me something about yourself below! But more importantly, do you love or hate candy corn????
