slow living with Helena Woods

Helena Woods is with us again and we’re talking all about slow living—something that will not only help us get through this quarantine but also improve our lives in general. 


Helena’s philosophy is to do less, and care less. She shares her story transitioning from a fast-paced life in New York to a simpler one in France. She walks us through what a typical day looks like for her, which includes connecting to her intuition, fun photoshoots, bike rides into the city, and picnics with lots of locally made cheese.  


We recognize that many of you are struggling through recent changes due to the spread of the Coronavirus. Helena offers her best advice on embracing the situation in a way that honors our values, maintains mindfulness, and leaves space to simply ‘be.’ 


Listen to this episode to learn how to grow during this unique global experience. 


Helena Woods is a destination family photographer, writer and an American expat living in France. She opened her photography business in 2016 and has since photographed families and couples across the world. The city of Strasbourg held a touring exhibition of her portrait series “Children of the World” and she's been recently featured in the latest issue of Living France Magazine. She runs an active blog and Youtube channel called "Simple Joys" and loves to explore topics relating to slow living, values and finding appreciation in the simple joys of life. An enneagram type 7, Helena finds the most joy dabbling in hobbies like astrocartography, painting, snapping polaroids, studying birth charts, reading the Akashic Records, and making things with whatever she can find.
