When I first embarked on my yoga/spiritual exploration years ago, I had an agenda. I had specific, measurable goals and a timeline of one year (<- type-A anyone?).

The Ultimate Guide to Meal Planners & Templates
It’s a new year, and with that, we’re all trying to level up our game when it comes to eating healthy and moving more. I get it, and I do the same thing, particularly after what seems like a month-long holiday-fest where there’s a steady stream of cheese and wine going into my mouth. Personally,…
Easy Paleo Braised Brussel Sprouts (Low Carb & NSNG)

When I lived in Canada, my friends and I would take trips down to Buffalo to shop the outlet stores for cheap clothes and then head to a local grocery store for all the fat-free garbage not yet available in our own country. I wholeheartedly embraced the fat-free phenomenon. I remember my first trip to…
