Hi, I’m Arielle
I am passionate about food, mental health, community & healing. Ironically, all of these things affect one another and play a vital role in our overall well-being.
In 2016, I was constantly experiencing excruciating abdominal pain after eating certain foods; which eventually landed me in the emergency room. Shortly after, I was diagnosed with a condition that affects the digestive system called, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Since my diagnosis, it has been extremely challenging to commit to a lifestyle that fosters healing mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally, while also allowing me to assist others on their wellness journey. Furthermore, my experience with grief during a critical time in my life has impacted my health in many ways that I never expected. So— I started Vzn Ari Wellness in 2023, not as someone who is an expert on health, but as someone with lived experience with pain & perseverance— as one who sees the need for community & connection in order to heal holistically, individually & collectively. My goal is to encourage, support, serve & connect individuals with resources needed for healing.
