Careers in Holistic Health: Corinne Bowen, Renaissance Woman (Part II)
Yesterday I had the honor of introducing you to the fabulous Corinne Bowen. Today you get to read the second half of her interview. Open up your heart and get inspired! 4. What would you say is the biggest reward in pursuing two different career paths simultaneously? I couldn’t narrow it down to one thing, [...]
Careers in Holistic Health: Corinne Bowen, Renaissance Woman (Part I)
In TOEFL, students are often asked to give 45 second responses to questions such as, “Who is your hero?” or “Who do you admire most?” When they ask about my heroes, Kris Carr is the first person who comes to mind. We don’t have Kris Carr here for us today, but I can do you [...]

music to move you, and rock hard abs
Three things became quite clear from your advice about running: If you’re heading out for fewer than 10 miles, almost none of you bring water. (I’m still trying to wrap my mind around this, but when it comes to long runs, I think you folks know better than I!) You guys friggin’ love Lady GaGa [...]

spent update: loving it (even on a sick day)
Let me begin by saying the Spent (Revive) program has been amazing so far. I’m a little over halfway through the six weeks, and I have felt healthier and more energetic than I have since…I don’t even know when. I’m still not where I want to be in terms of vitality, but I finally feel [...]
a slow transition to (mostly) vegan — part ii
Some people, like Lindsay, the kitchen genius behind Happy Herbivore, believe that being vegan is like being pregnant: you either are or you are not. You can’t be “sort of” vegan. I, on the other hand, choose to “embrace the gray,” to quote my dear friend Brigit. And I’m not alone. Even raw food goddess [...]
ted talks goodness
Inspired by some dear friends back in Philly, Michael and I started hosting monthly TED Talk screening and discussion nights. For those who aren’t familiar with TED, which stands for technology, entertainment, design, here’s a blurb from their website: TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as [...]
sun salutations goal*: day ii
What a gift this blog has been. Yesterday, I felt a little under the weather. Last night we had a friend over for a night of great wine and conversation, but staying up until 1am drinking vino didn’t do anything to boost my system. (It did, however, do great things for another project I’m working [...]
