Most people encounter wellness far too late. They arrive when they are exhausted, overwhelmed, reactive, disconnected, or already in crisis. By then, the nervous system is overloaded, decision-making is impaired, and the body is no longer whispering. It is yelling.   At Holistique, we approach prevention differently. We operate from a simple but powerful framework often used in public health, safety, and systems design: the 10/80/10 principle . When applied to wellness, it ex

For Starters… I did not build Holistique because the world needed more wellness content. It already has plenty of that. What it needed was honesty, clarity, and a little backbone.   Wellness today is loud. It’s trend-driven, over-promised, under-explained, and often disconnected from real life.

Somatic therapy recognizes the body as an active partner in health and healing. In this post, we explore how nervous system regulation, bodily awareness, and movement-based practices support emotional resilience and overall well-being. Grounded in neuroscience and research, this is a clear look at what somatic therapy is, what it is not, and how integrating the body into care can support sustainable health.

Confidence is not a personality trait. It is a well-resourced life. In this post, we explore how self-care, financial literacy, and future planning reshape the way the brain processes thoughts and emotions. Learn how tending to your body, preparing for your future, and supporting your nervous system creates steadiness, clarity, and resilience. Confidence is not about eliminating the bumps in the road. It is about being equipped to navigate them with strength.

Creativity is one of the oldest medicines we have. In this post, we explore how art therapy and intuitive expression support emotional healing, reduce stress, and help the mind process what words cannot hold. Through science and lived experience, discover how color, texture, and movement can restore balance and reconnect you to your inner wisdom.

From the ancient ritual of heat bathing to the modern science of light and salt, infrared wellness bridges tradition and technology. In this post, we explore the evidence and experience behind infrared saunas, salt therapy, and red light therapy — revealing how heat, minerals, and light can restore circulation, balance, and calm. It’s not just self-care — it’s science meeting sanctuary.

Reiki is often described as energy healing — but its real power may lie in stillness, not mystery. In this post, we explore what science and experience reveal about Reiki’s ability to calm the nervous system, ease tension, and restore emotional balance. Whether you view it as mindful ritual or gentle energy work, Reiki reminds us that peace itself is a form of healing.

Crystals are more than decoration — they’re a reflection of our desire to feel grounded, calm, and whole. While science shows that crystals play a role in medical technology, their true value in wellness lies in experience. In this post, we explore how crystals support healing through intention, mindfulness, and meaning — not magic, but presence made tangible.

Co-parenting isn’t about the breakup — it’s about what comes after. In this post, we explore why creating a clear parenting strategy matters more than personal feelings, and how structure, communication, and respect help children thrive. Learn how focusing on stability over emotion builds resilience for everyone involved — and turns separation into strength.

Choosing a wellness provider is more than a practical decision — it’s a partnership. The right practitioner should understand your goals, honor your lifestyle, and empower your growth through evidence-informed care. In this post, we explore how to find a provider who aligns with your values, blends science with empathy, and helps transform wellness from a checklist into a way of life.
