Thank goodness for my amazing YouTube fans! Last Friday, I posted a blog/vlog about my trip to Toys R Us with Baby Summer to buy some organic baby products and our scary labeling discovery (read the original blog here). I woke up this morning to a message from a viewer called WishoftheJellyfish that directed me … (Read More)
While I like to fancy myself somewhat of a domestic/farmer/DIY goddess, the truth is that I’m not running any 1800’s house over here. Sometimes I make my own toothpaste; sometimes I buy it. Sometimes I’m picking fresh produce from my garden for a meal; most of the time I’m hitting the grocery store or the … (Read More)
Since the moment I got serious about fitness, I’ve been on a mission to find the formula for true health. I know it has a lot to do with having a good attitude – a positive approach to life. You can’t exercise a bad diet away, so eating clean, whole foods like fruits, veggies, nuts … (Read More)
I’m not even going to pretend that the holidays don’t stress me out like crazy. Between explaining to my family over and over again why I’m not eating all the crazy processed fattening foods and convincing them that vegetarianism is not an eating disorder, I’m completely exhausted at holiday gatherings.

If you watch my videos or read my blog regularly, you know that I’m trying to shed my tomboy ways and upgrade to “glamorous lady” status. So far, so *meh*. I’m definitely taking much better care of my skin (I’m not using body lotion on my face anymore), and I’ve been making attempts to only … (Read More)

I’m launching a new mini-series of videos where I explore better/safer/cleaner ways to get beautiful and clean. My family is doing a complete overhaul of our bathroom cabinets and … (Read More)
Shobha rosewater freshening cloths! I’ve been using these swoon-worthy scented wipes almost daily since I was introduced to them while teaching at Strala Yoga in NYC. They are perfect for after waxing/sugaring/workout/yoga class/sweaty activity. I keep them in my bag at all times, because yes, I can get stinky during a good sweat sesh. I … (Read More)
This has truly been the best week ever… I made huge breakthroughs in yoga, we signed contracts on our new house, and I found out the IRS owes me $373 from, like, a year ago – woo hoo! And on top of all that, it was the best YouTube week ever, too! I got to … (Read More)
I eat McDonald’s french fries. Sometimes I try to show off in yoga and I end up hurting myself. I hate shaving my legs. Those are three things that are completely true. The theme in yoga teacher training this week is Satya (or truth), so I’m making it the theme for LBF Friday, too. Let’s … (Read More)
