Beauty Water: Everyday Hydration Recipes for Wellness and Self-Care

by Tori Holmes

Overview

There is no better way to invest in wellness on a daily basis than to make sure we are drinking enough water. Holistic nutritionist and wellness entrepreneur Tori Holmes has developed ways to turn the simple act of hydration into a self-care ritual. As part of a timely conversation on beauty by ways of nutrition and supplements, she created 50 recipes for water-based elixirs that improve vitality, support longevity, and aid our bodies’ natural recovery mechanisms. She uses everything from common herbs like nettle, mint, and chamomile, to supplements like adaptogens, chlorophyll, and CBD oil to create elixirs for everyday use. Make her anti-aging Tocos Royal Jelly Plumper to aide youthfulness from within, Lion’s Mane Matcha to provide cognitive clarity, or Ashwagandha Chai Calmer for a good night’s rest.

About the Author

Tori Holmes is a nutritionist, a wellness entrepreneur, an author, and the co-founder of Nectar Juicery in Vancouver. In her early twenties, her spirit of adventure and her passion for life carried her through a grueling trip across the Atlantic in a 24-foot rowboat, as well as a very different but equally challenging adventure of facing a breast cancer diagnosis. Both experiences have made her turn to alternative medicine traditions from around the world, and she found her way back to wellness by utilizing the power of self-care beyond sick care. She is now a passionate advocate for the importance of water and hydration, alternative ingredients, and the power of our own bodies on the path to wellness. Today, she is a product developer and an ambassador for startup ventures in plant medicine.
