Another Celebrity Diet Fail May 7, 2019

Many of you might know that I am a long time yoga practitioner, but you might not know I also became a teacher around two years ago. Recently I started teaching a weekly morning class (House of Jai, Mondays 9:30-10:45am) in addition to my occasionally subbing. My husband asked me: "Why take on more responsibility?" Funny, I hadn't thought of it that way at all. For me, it was about sharing my love of yoga with others and challenging myself to do something new.

How To EAT Healthy Food Every Day! April 23, 2019

Yesterday was Earth Day and it really made me think about our planet and climate change. I've been recycling for years and I carry a reusable shopping bag with me every day for groceries and misc. stuff; yet know I can do better (much better!). Lately I have stopped drinking from a plastic straw when out and bought paper straws for my home for the first time. BUT I admit for some reason drinking my iced-coffee from Starbucks lately sans straw just hasn't tasted the same!

Can A DNA Report Help Identify Your Best Diet? April 9, 2019

Shared a quote on Instagram last week from a yoga book of mine called The Bhagavad Gita: "On this path no effort is wasted, no gain is ever reversed." It resonated with me because I feel at the end of the day what really matters is how committed we are to something. When we give up too quickly because of failure we lose sight of where we wanted to go in the first place. Stay on your path, focus on the positive and try and let the other sh*t go!

Eggs…Healthy or NOT? March 26, 2019

It might not feel like spring, at least here in NYC, but according to the calendar it's officially here! Personally I've starting going through my closet and deciding on what to donate or sell on consignment (Rule of thumb, if not worn or looked at in 3 years perhaps it's time to part ways!). Hey, got to get rid of some old to make room for some new, right? Anyway, how many of you do this in your kitchen?

Daylight Savings Edition March 18, 2019

Happy Daylight Savings!!! This morning while browsing through Instagram I read this quote: "I need a coffee so I can go and get my coffee." I laughed out loud! Who can relate? Losing an hour of sleep on Sunday definitely had an effect on me. And I don't remember it happening before??!!

Why You Gain Weight Back! February 28, 2019

Every once in a while I feel the need to make the following statement and yes, it's for the record! Here goes: "Just because I am a nutritionist - I do not care if you eat red meat, fried foods or drink alcohol. As matter of fact I like to partake in all three as well!" The end. Thank you!

How Important Is Breakfast, REALLY? February 12, 2019

SO, having coffee with a friend today and she said to me: "I know you aren't going to like this; BUT, I really think I can't eat gluten!" Well, to be honest when I typically hear this comment out of nowhere my hair does stand on end! However, this time it really didn't! You see, it wasn't out of no where; this particular friend has made this comment to me more than once before. Yes, I admit the first time I was like "REALLY????".

Should YOU Be Drinking Celery Juice? January 31, 2019

Confession time: I don't drink enough water! I know I should - yet I still don't! Funny how that is, right? We know we should do something good for ourselves and yet, we still don't! I do think though that the first step for improvement is admitting there is a problem to begin with. So here goes: "I have a problem drinking enough water!" Phew!

Another Celebrity Diet You Don’t Want To Follow! January 24, 2019

Week two of the New Year! How are the resolutions going? (Gasp!) I feel it is important to remind you that no matter what happens with your health goals, you can ALWAYS start over! OR you can always switch gears. For example, you swore you were going to start bringing your own healthy lunch to work, and then after a couple of days realized that is NEVER going to happen!
