Hey there, I'm Mallory Riess!
Thanks so much for stoping by my little space here on the web and reading my story! I can't wait to teach you everything I've learned over the years, and believe me I have A LOT of knowledge and experience to share!
I'm a mama, yogi, DIYer, oil lover, natural health enthusiast and super committed to helping you live your most aligned life.
My biggest lesson has definitely been becoming a mama and everything that goes with it. Every day I am learning to navigate motherhood and how to create a loving & healthy home. Now, I don't have a whole lot of parenting answers for you (still figuring all that out myself, although human design has giving me some amazing insight to stay tuned because I may have some answers soon!), but I can help with keeping your kids healthy! We all want healthy kids because healthy kids are just happier kids and mama I know you want your kid to be happy just like I do.
When we first brought our son, Eero, home, I felt lost. He was colicky, gassy, had a serve case of torticollis, and was just an all around unhappy baby. Being a first time mom and confronted with all of this was HARD and compounded by my own emotional issues lead to my PPD. The first 6 months of Eero's life was full of a lot of tears from both of us.
Then his first REAL cold and fever hit. I didn't feel prepared and didn't know what to do to help him. Everyone just kept telling me, oh just use Infant Tylenol and Ibuprofen, but this didn't sit right with me. I knew all I was doing was masking the symptoms and not actually helping his body to heal. My baby was in pain and I wanted to do everything I could to help his body be strong and fight. This lead me down a path of diving into natural remedies, learning how the body works, and ultimately empowered me as a mother to care for my babies.
Now I know what to do keep my babies healthy from my abundant toolkit of lifestyle choices and natural remedies. I no longer have that panicked feeling when Eero or Emma spike a fever, I know exactly what to and it is my mission to help every mama feel confident in taking care of their families. There is truly so much we can do when we understand how the body works, even in simple terms and I can't wait to share it all with you!
I'm here for you, through the up and downs, tears and smiles, I will be here to help uplift and encourage you. Know you are not alone, in fact there is a whole community of mamas waiting for you to join us and go against the status quo. Our bodies are meant for health and our lives are meant for abundance.
