We take a holistic path to skincare and believe the health of your skin is more than a mere application of a product; it extends to the care of your mind, gut, and heart. And It's not just our belief — research has confirmed such a connection. 

Our commitment to providing you with soul-led offerings will always remain at our core. So, we've called on our community of trusted professionals in the skin, mind, and health sector to be of resource to you, with great hope of you finding your "groov" to achieve a healthy balance of life.

 

Selena Ayala

Integrative Nutritionist + Health Educator

Selena is trained in clinical integrative nutrition and is a National Association of Nutrition Practitioners member. She developed a deep interest in integrative nutrition, after relating to her body in a new way which expanded her curiosity and pushed her to examine the connection between food and the emotional drivers behind the disease in the body. This interest eventually led her to pursue an education at the Institute of Holistic Nutrition in Toronto, Canada.

Additionally, she further studied in Oaxaca, Mexico, with a Yerberos— a herbalist who relies solely on herbal prescriptions. Thanks to her visibility and advocacy experience, Selena is working to push our understanding of integrative nutrition and body literacy to empower women and help them thrive in their bodies at every stage of life.

  • We’re stronger together than we are alone.

    We must share resources, growth, and all of its benefits for the betterment of the collective, not just ourselves. A community fosters equal possibilities for everyone, giving concrete form to our core principles while cultivating a better environment — principally where the most vulnerable are.

    At IN GROOV, sharing and supplying resources encourages sustainable practices that, with hope, will have an eternal impact on people's lives in the best way.
