It was two weeks ago. I was running with David. I felt slow and heavy and in pain and it wasn’t the first time. I have been battling issues with my posture, pain in my joints and tight hips and hamstrings for well over a year. I’ve sought treatment, but mostly ignored the pain and hoped it would go away… Read More
When I revealed what’s inside my bathroom cabinets a few weeks ago, I was forced to take a good hard look at my makeup. Admittedly, I wear less makeup now on a daily basis than I used to, and I’ve overhauled my makeup bag every couple of years as I’ve grown more conscious of natural products and earth-friendly companies, but… Read More
I know what you’re thinking. Fries? On this blog? These aren’t just any fries. They’re acorn squash fries and you may want to hurry and try them before squash is out of season at the end of the month. I knew that I wanted to make some comfort food with this squash and create fries but I wanted these fries… Read More
When I first met Gabrielle Bernstein in 2008, she was speaking about happiness at the New York Junior League. At the time, I had a lot of drama in my life and never considered I could be a happy person. I was going through the motions. I thought to myself then that Gabby was the kind of person I’d like… Read More
I gave up my bagel and cream cheese habit several years ago. Thankfully, you won’t find that kind of deli fare on the menu at Kutsher’s Tribeca. Instead, you get a contemporary spin on Jewish American classics artfully served up (in ample portions) in a clean and modern bistro setting. Eager for a light lunch, mid-week, we strolled over to… Read More

And I think it’s no coincidence that many have an Institute for Integrative Nutrition student or grad behind them. The Wellness Warrior Finding the perfect healthy balance of mind… Read More
Whenever I’m hungry I play a little game with myself. Instead of satisfying the “hunger” immediately, I check in with my body first. I’ll get to exactly how this works in a second … and, I know, it sounds weird. But when you consider that hunger is actually controlled not only by the gastrointestinal tract (the stomach) but also by… Read More
I get the Sunday Blues really bad. No matter what time of year it is, when Sunday rolls around I usually have some anxiety about the week ahead. The weather was perfect yesterday so David and I took a long walk from home in TriBeCa to Eataly on 23rd Street. Yesterday was my day off of working out so the… Read More
In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, I’m bringing you this easy recipe for shishito peppers. Decidedly not Irish, the recipe was created by a native of Ireland (my boyfriend) and they are green. Plus, you’ll be doing a jig when you see that these only take 2 minutes to make. Shishito peppers have been popping up on lots of restaurant… Read More
