10 Wellness Instagram Accounts to Follow

July 5, 2018 by Hillary Leave a Comment

I’ll be the first to admit that I spend way to much time scrolling through social feeds, in particular Instagram. Don’t we all? I mean, I’d be lying if I didn’t say that sometimes I’ll watch Instagram Stories while say curling my hair or munching on breakfast. And laying in bed, mindlessly scrolling through my feed, well yeah… not a good habit in the slightest.

Social media is a double-edged sword: one of disconnection and connection. On one end, you can spiral down a deep hole of comparison. Filters screw our perception, and more often than not, they act as highlight reels. They can also be addicting, distracting us from living in the moment by focusing on how to share said moment via a photo, perfectly-timed boomerang, or video. On the other end, social media can be a tool of connection and inspiration. 

I follow a lot of people on Instagram (ahem, 850+), so this is by no means an exhaustive list of my favorite accounts. It is simply a taste of some of the accounts I come back to again and again. An aestetically-pleasing Instagram feed is a work of art, really, and while I greatly appreciate branded accounts with eye-catching color schemes, the accounts that attract me the most are those that feel REAL. Those that inspire me to ditch the filters, and show life as it is.

These badass women inspire me on the daily, and are worth a follow. And while you’re at it, feel free to follow me on Instagram at @hillontherun ?

@happyhealthypnw

Emily is a fellow IIN Health Coach, and an adorable one at that! Whether she’s popping up at 4:00am for an Orangetheory Fitness class, rocking a cute outfit, or creating killer (health) coaching programs, Em lights a fire under my butt to pursue my passions. She also lives in the hip city of Portland, Oregon (oh hi, beautiful Pacific Northwest!), and I’m only slightly envious of that.

@shapinup

Take one peek at Amanda’s feed and I promise you’ll get an immediate travel itch. Amanda is an American Expat fitness guru temporarily living in Barcelona, Spain. She continually inspires me to experiment with different kinds of exercise, enjoy a matcha latte, and embrace doing things independently from solo lunch dates to weekend trips (in a foreign country). Amanda’s feed is eye-catching and a must for anyone who loves food, fitness, and travel.

@katie_loveluck

I can count on Katie for a daily laugh. Seriously, all I have to do is watch her Instagram Stories and I am guaranteed to smile. Her sarcarcam isn’t like any other. She’s usually sharing something about her pets, her crazy curly hair, or the inside scoop on all things Charlotte (North Carolina) while sipping on an iced coffee. Katie encourages you to not take life too seriously.

@wellnesswithedie

Edie is a blonde-haired, blue-eyed Colorado-livin’ doll. She is also a health coach with an undying mission to help women love themselves through body acceptance and positive self-talk. Her feed is full of colorful, nourishing food and powerful reminders about self-acceptance that pull at your heart strings. Thanks for being the sunshine that you are, Edie.

@jamiemendell

Jamie is not only a self-care guru (and I’m not talking about manis & pedis here) but an intuitive living expert (my words, not hers)… but she is a Lifestyle Coach for good reason. While Jamie coaches women to be their own best friend and feel all the feelings, she simultaneously opens up about her personal life — most recently all that has unfolded with her cross-country move from NYC to San Fran. Jamie’s wisdom encourages me to be more in-tune with my myself, and that being REAL never gets old.

@laurcardarelliseib

Fitness enthusiasts, Lauren is your girl. Her feed is jam-packed with sweaty workout snippets that will make you want to get off your butt and move! Whether it’s hitting the gym, or running on a tropical beach, Lauren’s dedication to fitness is strong… like her core!

@shutthekaleup

You may know Jeannette already – as she has quite the following – but if not, I am happy to introduce you to this petite mama and health living queen. I wouldn’t say no to lunch at Jeannette’s house as her kitchen is a superfood haven. She’s a baller at meal-preppin’ real, wholesome food for her fam. Photos of her eats and exercise will spark your interest, but her vulnerability is what keeps ya around. She talks on her Stories like she’s talking to you. She’s not scared to share the tough stuff, and she is authentic as all get out.

@corinnedobbas

I guarantee you will feel better about yourself after scrolling through Corinne’s feed. A Food & Body Image Coach, she steers you away from any sort of restrictive, diet mindset and, instead, empowers you to love yourself — where you’re at, with the body you’ve got. She also is the host of the podcast, HeartSpace, which is worth a listen.

@musingsbymeghan

Meghan is a kombucha-sipping accountant by day, blogger by night who shares her musings in her own personal wellness journey. Her feed led me to her blog where I learned that she, too, suffers from SIBO (but has since kicked its butt). Connecting with others that are going through something similar is what these social feeds are all about in my opinion. Meghan’s feed captures her genuine approach to pursing wellness in her own life, without all the filters and fluff.

@constancelyeating

Connie is a 24-year-old gal taking life by storm — almost a registered dietitian with a masters degree, intuitive eating and movement is the name of her game. Her relaxed view on eating and exercise is refreshing. Wether she’s nannying, grabbing a margarita with a girlfriend, or cranking out college exams, this girl keeps it real through and though. Connie’s mature devotion to her passions and education will take this young gal far.

“Anxiety is a symptom, not a diagnosis.” - Dr. “Anxiety is a symptom, not a diagnosis.” - Dr. George Papanicolaou

It’s no secret that I suffer from chronic anxiety and panic attacks. Or at least I don’t intend it to be. Because while there can be a lot of shame and embarrassment around both of these, I know I’m not alone in my experiences. While I’ve leaned toward the more anxious side most of life, my bothersome anxiety has steadily increased since my mid-twenties - some periods being worse than others. 

It’s not a complete surprise that my mental health has taken a dip during my first full gloomy Seattle winter — in the height of a pandemic. 

Here are some ways I have been nurturing my body & mind as I work with a team of practitioners to work on understanding the **root causes** of my panic, and to live with more ease. 

» no coffee (not even decaf)

» meditating regularly - I’m using @insighttimer 

» gentle movement

» weekly therapy sessions

» attempting cold showers (this is hard for me!): if you’re interested, you can research how this impacts the nervous system

» working with a naturopathic doctor to focus on gut + hormone health

» trying a new Rx - a decision that took years of consideration

» lastly, opening myself up to vulnerable conversations/sharing my story and my experiences in efforts to reduce any shame and connect with others 

I am not my anxiety.

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
