Hi, my name is Alyssa! Welcome to Flaxseeds & Fairytales (F&F), a health and wellness blog. I’m so glad you stopped by! I can’t wait to show you all the exciting resources I created to help YOU achieve your very own healthy, happily ever after. I believe in a balanced approach to health and wellness that includes healthy eating, fitness, meditation, travel, general wellness, and more! This blog is your fairy godmother—it contains everything you need to make your health and fitness dreams come true!
Why Flaxseeds & Fairytales? Because happily ever after starts with seeds. Every time you make a small step toward better health, you’re planting a seed. Whether it’s trying a new smoothie recipe, doing meditation for the first time, or getting a better night’s sleep, these “baby” steps are slowly but surely leading you toward increased health and vitality. Essentially, the name, Flaxseeds & Fairytales, is a more creative interpretation of health (the “flaxseeds”) and happiness (the “fairytales”). Together, these two things combine to give you a more balanced and fulfilling life. Let me show you easy ways to find your healthy, happily ever after!
