Gardiner Wholistic Health

Breathing new life into my office space... After being unable to go to my office for the past 4 months it is definitely a bit strange to back back (to say the least). Some things feel the same, but many things feel very different. I am hoping that my new little marigold sprouts can help to symbolize a new beginning, and represent the strength and beauty and perseverance that is life! May we all move into this next phase of the world with love, hope, respect, and an open mind! . #massagetherapy #massagetherapist #lmt #lmtnyc #nycmassage #nycmassagetherapist #cnmt #medicalmassage #medicalmassagetherapist #clinicalmassagetherapy #vegan #veganlife #plants #medicinalplants #marigold #calendula #gardening #lifeaftercovid #backtowork #myoffice #newlife #hope @ 501 5th Ave New York

Saw these guys on a walk the other day...anyone else having a flashback to the Alice in Wonderland cartoon?? I must say, there is something truly cathartic about being able to take the time to stop and smell the flowers. We miss out on so much when we are rushing around in our daily lives, and nature (even the urban kind) is pretty rad!

Reorganized my herbs for medicinal teas today! Forgot I had all these cool little jars ... Made a tea with lots of nutritive herbs (nettle, oat straw, red raspberry leaf, calendula) which help bring the body into balance. Peppermint to aid in digestion. Lemon balm and spearmint to relieve anxiety and sharpen focus. And a little hawthorn for heart health! I had so much fun learning about all of this last year when I did my nutrition certification! Really glad to have a moment to revisit this! . . . #herbalremedies #nutritionist #medicinalteas #foodismedicine #herbalmedicine #massagetherapist #nycmassagetherapist #nycnutritionist #herbjars #health #wellness #healthandwellness #stayinghealthyinquarantine #selfcare #selfcaretools #lmt #cnmt #afpanutritionist @ Astoria, New York

I’ve always wished for a quiet outdoor space to drink my tea in the morning and observe nature...who knew, it was here all along... I’ve lived in my apt in NYC for over 14 years, and (don’t get me wrong) I’ve sat out on my fire escape before, but it was always considered kind of a faux pa to use it as your own personal balcony (fire hazard and all ). But with everything that’s going on, we all need some fresh air! I’ve been seeing lots of people in my neighboring buildin...g sitting out on their own fire escapes reading, meditating, working, and even just getting a little sun! So I brought out my little folding chair (don’t worry, I bring it back inside when I’m done. Safety first!), and I’ve made this one of my favorite parts of my new daily quarantine routine!
