Critics Review
As we well know, the food and health industry is saturated with new gen ‘-free’ foodies. What I like about The Naturalista is that it’s not so much a strict eating plan but a way of life that she calmly follows herself - from canapes to homemade deodorant - and encourages you to follow. It’s not some marketing guff; you can see in her daily apparel that she has a very free thinking, natural approach to life. Whilst I, myself, sadly have rather the opposite, Xochi does encourage me to look
at happy and healthy alternatives. - Sunday Times StyleAs we well know, the food and health industry is saturated with new gen ‘-free’ foodies.

You only have to read her work or look at her digital channels to see the authenticity if her principles. Aside from having a beautiful - and indeed highly aspirational - aesthetic, she has the ability to express concisely and in layman’s terms what many women are looking for: a more balanced (both spiritually and health-wise) lifestyle. - Katherine OrmerodAbout The Author
Xochi Balfour
Xochi’s first career was as a trends journalist and freelance writer for the Financial Times and the Evening Standard before abandoning office life to set up a street food van, Rainbo. But with that life came long hours, unhealthy food and mounting stress, and a dawning realisation that she could not sustain this pace of life in the long term. Xochi enrolled at the College of Naturopathic Medicine and started writing The Naturalista blog as a means of documenting her journey back to vitality through food, natural beauty and mindfulness.
With her husband Ben, Xochi travels to various teachers and workshops in the UK and beyond to delve ever deeper into what it means to live a healthy, balanced and spiritually connected life.
