The Holistic Hippie Podcast
With chronic disease and mental health conditions on the rise, more and more people are looking to holistic health practices to combat the negative impacts of living in the modern world. The host of this show is Jessi, aka The Holistic Hippie, a Registered Holistic Nutritionist & Lifestyle Coach, Yoga Teacher & Teacher Trainer, Reiki Practitioner, Past-Life Regressionist, and Student of Core Shamanism and Ceremonial Plant-Medicine. Most importantly - she's human. Jessi spent over 10 years struggling with her physical and mental health which is what has inspired her to pursue a career in wellness and why she is so deeply passionate about inspiring others to transform their own health & well-being. This is definitely not your average Health & Wellness podcast. Jessi is obsessed with spiritual growth and transformation and she created this show as a catalyst for collective change; a way for us to "do the work" together and to connect in a conscious community. Every week she delves into a new topic which she explores through the lens of holistic living, sharing openly and honestly from her own experiences. She prides herself on being real and sharing the things that most people won't in order to bring to light the fact that none of us are alone on this journey. If you are ready to take responsibility for your physical, mental, and spiritual health and move from surviving to truly thriving in this life, this is the podcast for you!

Episode 18 - Reflections on Happiness vs. Peace
In this episode I share my present reflections on the stage of growth that I am currently shifting into, while observing the many stages of growth & development. I discuss the concept of chasing happiness vs. inner peace and I introduce the 5 Klesha's, which are in Yoga Philosophy as the 5 obstacles on our path that create suffering; Ignorance, Egoism, Attachment, Aversion, and Fear of Death.
This episode is an open contemplation on what it means to take responsibility for our emotions and the concept of allowing emotions to pass before making decisions or assigning too much importance to our emotions. This is an episode that invites you to consider your own inner emotional landscape and explore with me what it might mean to choose inner peace over the constant pursuit of happiness.
