show yourself some love with these nurturing self-care ideas

 ”Today we explore something tender. Something many women silently struggle with the art of letting yourself receive, receiving love, receiving rest, receiving support, and receiving beauty.

So many women who visit me at Norabloom are extraordinary givers, mothers, daughters, partners, creatives, healers, entrepreneurs and caretakers…”

Learn more about me

I am the founder of Norabloom—a sanctuary where beauty, wellness, and artistry meet. My path weaves together many threads: I am a holistic esthetician, certified integrative nutrition health coach, somatic healer, yoga teacher, reiki master, and photographer. Each role is guided by the same intention—to nurture women in mind, body, and spirit, and to create spaces where they feel seen, held, and radiant.

I founded Norabloom 27 years ago as a small, soulful skin spa with my own line of handcrafted botanical beauty products. Over time, life invited me deeper into creativity—when my daughter was expecting her little one, I rediscovered my love for art and photography.  I’ve woven together all the things I cherish most into one harmonious offering—Norabloom.

I'm Holly!
