How my journey began

After experiencing a serious hormone imbalance in 2015, I immersed myself in holistic health practices, culminating in the completion of the Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor Program through Kerala Ayurveda Academy in 2019. I felt inspired to share the valuable benefits of Ayurvedic principles because I knew so many people looking for information to gain control over their health.

My experience as a yogi, yoga teacher and studio owner combined with my passion for holistic wellness has equipped me with the tools to guide others on their health journeys. 

I founded When Living in 2022. Our mission is to empower individuals by offering simple, accessible rituals and practices that align with the natural rhythms of the seasons. Through When Living, I curate seasonal boxes filled with handpicked products from trusted Ayurvedic brands and small businesses. Each product is thoughtfully selected to naturally support and enhance your health. 

I am passionate about curating a community that inspires and creates more harmony and control in each of our unique health journeys. As When Living continues to grow, we will  expand our offerings, host seasonal events and partner with experts to enrich the well-being of our community. 

I’m excited you are here! 

Be well,

Julie Helmes, Founder, When Living
