Hello Beautiful People,
I'm so glad you're here.
I created purified lifestyle to share a way of living with less toxic inputs and more nourishing ones; a way of refining life down to what truly supports us.
Purified Lifestyle
Purified (adj.) free from excess, simplified to essentials.
Lifestyle (n.) the daily choices that shape how we live, move, eat, rest, and grow.
WHO I AM
I’ve lived through both extremes — chaos and order, depletion and vitality.
I’m peaceful and intense, quiet and bold, grounded and curious.
I am a student and a teacher, always refining, always learning.
I love time with my family. I love moving my body — dancing, stretching, biking, snowboarding, hiking. I love gardening, organizing homes, building websites. I love being in nature, listening to soulful music, playing the cello, reading how-to books, and having meaningful conversations.
Over time, I’ve built a lifestyle that makes space for these things.
WHAT I DO
- I developed a Lifestyle Operating System to help us reflect, simplify, and create our own rhythm.
- I create plant-forward recipes inspired by raw, vegan, and seasonal eating.
- I design flexible strength routines inspired by years of training and teaching aerial arts.
- I organize homes and routines to match my client's goals and ideal lifestyle.

MY LIFESTYLE
For years, I was sick and tired of being sick and tired.
I was disconnected from my body’s needs.
That all changed in 2011 when I watched several documentaries about health. I stripped everything back to the simplest version of nourishment: raw, whole, vibrant foods. From there, I slowly rebuilt; adding, testing, observing.
Today, my diet is more aligned with nature's rhythm and getting the most nutrients from local farms. I do not follow rigid rules. I follow my body's signals from years of observation.
- I eat mostly raw, fermented, and plant-based, but remain flexible.
- I prioritize hydration, herbal teas, mineral-rich foods, and seasonal variety.
- I avoid processed foods, artificial ingredients, and chemical-laden products.
- I use natural oils and herbs in my daily care routines.
- I move daily, outdoors whenever possible, using nature as my gym.
For me it has never been about extremes or perfection. It was always about creating a sustainable way of living that supports my energy, my work, my family, and my passions.
A BRIEF HISTORY
When I first started, I dove into raw veganism overnight. It was radical, healing, and eye-opening. Over time, I refined my approach into something more sustainable — blending knowledge from nutrition, movement, mindfulness, and old-world wisdom.
I learned to respect the body’s natural cycles; how food, movement, rest, and emotion all work together. That’s what I now teach through Purified Lifestyle: a balanced system of living that adapts with you.
If I’ve learned anything, it’s this: simplicity is powerful, rhythm is healing, and balance is the foundation for everything.
Much Love,
Amanda Nicole Smith
