In a world where self-care and holistic well-being have become paramount, there emerges a remarkable individual whose journey has seamlessly intertwined the realms of wellness, sound healing, and organic food. Meet Sarah Tanner, a trailblazing woman whose passion and dedication has not only transformed her own life but also touched the lives of countless others seeking a path to balance and vitality.

Sarah’s unique blend of expertise in sound healing and organic nutrition, coupled with her knack for creating engaging content, has set her apart as a true influencer in the world of well-being. Her belief that wellness is not a one-size-fits-all journey but rather a combination of practices that encompass the mind, body, and spirit is both inspiring and transformative.

On her social media channels (@sarahtannernz), Sarah shares her passion for organic recipes, from mouth-watering salads to her now iconic bliss balls. She believes that food should be a source of nourishment and joy, and her delightful dishes inspire others to embark on their own culinary adventures.  In addition to her culinary talents, Sarah is deeply involved in the world of sound healing. She recognises the profound impact that sound can have on our overall well-being. Using crystal singing bowls, the frame drum, Native American flute and the shruti box, Sarah curates sound experiences that promote relaxation and emotional balance.

Regularly organising both wellness evenings and weekend retreats, Sarah combines her organic cooking expertise and sound healing sessions to offer participants a complete holistic experience.  As we head into the busiest time of the year here at Maman, Sarah recently hosted an evening of relaxation and enlightenment for the team, providing tips for calm and reset alongside nourishing food and elixirs.  In collaboration with Sarah, over the coming weeks we are excited to share with you some mindful tips and tricks to combat the approaching ‘silly season’.

In a world filled with constant noise, Sarah's commitment to promoting organic food and sound experiences is a reminder that wellness can be achieved through simple, natural, and joyful practices. Whether you're looking to find peace through sound, embark on a holistic wellness journey or redefine your boundaries, Sarah is the influencer to watch for inspiration and guidance… one soothing note and wholesome bite at a time!

 

Introducing Sarah Tanner

Holistic Wellness Ambassador

Name: Sarah Tanner.

Profession: Content creator/brand ambassador in the organic food space and sound healer/wellness event facilitator. 

What inspires you: Anyone that is following their heart, truly happy people have always been an inspiration, and nature is a big inspiration.

Favourite Maman brands: I love Alix of Bohemia, the pieces are so magic. That Emmylou Noir embroidered coat is completely amazing! Also Misa Los Angeles, and the Hermina Athens necklaces.

Go to outfit: Pretty standard with ankle blue jeans, trainers, a cotton tee and then a casual cotton shirt jacket by day, swapped out with a blazer or leather biker by night.

Fashion mantra: It has to be me!

Style Inspiration/Fashion Icon: I have a friend in LA who is an incredible astrologer, and she always inspires me to wear more colour, more bursts of colour, and always more jewellery. Thanks Berit!

Last thing you googled: Millbrook in Queenstown – it is a very close desire to host a retreat there with my friend for women, so I was checking out the facilities.

Last book you read: Currently reading The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer

What’s in your handbag right now: A little notebook where I jot down any ideas that pop in during the day, wallet, lipgloss, and the phone of course, although that’s more often in the hand than the bag.

A day in the life of Sarah looks like: Like many women, a juggle with many hats. I’m a mum of an 11 year old girl, so she comes first, then it’s anything from creating a new recipe, filming, posting and cooking for the Instagram side of things and my brand ambassador roles, to cooking for events and groups, and doing meditation and sound bath experiences. A walk with the dog and maybe a boxing class or home workout too. 

Go to snack: Always a bliss ball. I love making them and I love eating them!

Favourite Instagram accounts to follow: Berit and her The Uranian Approach astrology account @theuranianapproach always helps me feel a little less crazy. I love her style of mixing fashion and art into it all. I do like the more esoteric accounts where I can leave the gram feeling better, or at least more thoughtful, than when I came on. This could be another sound healer, a tarot reader…and Maman of course!

Most coveted fashion item at Maman right now: The aforementioned Alix of Bohemia jacket – I didn’t want to take it off!

What’s the biggest fashion mistake you’ve ever made: Buying second hand mens suit pants as a late teen thinking they looked great. I think my head was shaved at the time too. The rebellious years! Now I rebel in a different way of style – just as long as it’s always me.

Favourite quote or saying: Be here now.

Current song on rotate: I cannot listen to Krishna Das Om Nama Shivaya enough times in my life. It always lifts me up. Musical goals!

 

Non-negotiable daily rituals: Some form of movement, and music. Either the drum, flute, or breath with the shruti box. Even if it’s just 10 minutes on creating sound, I always feel better for it. I also have a large obsession with scent, so choosing a fragrance for the day, depending on my mood, is something I do as a ritual. I find it’s a cool way to check-in with how I am really feeling, and in a way, it seems like a fun way to infuse my frequency.

What do you love the most about the work you do now?

Through my own experiences with stress, and life tests, I love that I get to help facilitate deep relaxation and self-reverence in others, which has also helped me immeasurably. I love that I can provide the space for others to pause, to fully listen, to their bodies and the sound. My first business was a beauty therapy clinic where my team and I worked on the outside, then my journey went to organic food content creation, working on the inside, and now, the wave has taken me to sound frequencies and esoteric adventures to nourish the soul side. What a privilege, and I am grateful for it all.

Last picture you took on your phone: Dinner – I am always creating and sharing content. Prior to that one, a drumming video where I am finally introducing singing!

Best compliment you have ever received: “You have the most amazing eyes – you are here to be a healer”. This came from a healer and it really touched my heart.

Best piece of advice your Mother gave you: “Go for it”. She has said this many times over my 45 years and no matter what I’ve been into, her and dad have always been incredible supporters.

Last words: After nearly 30 years knowing Kate and Emma, I am constantly so inspired by what they have created at Maman. Not only sharing their beautiful sisterhood bond, but also sharing their love of fashion and style in such a heartfelt way, all in tribute to their mum. Thank you for including me in your wellness steps for yourselves and the Maman team – you both are so special x
