One of my favorite ways to nourish myself is with raw foods and fresh-pressed juices and from the moment I first tasted Organic Avenue’s Green Lemonade, it was love at first sip. Founder Denise Mari just makes wellness look good. She’s a fierce entrepreneur and I’m inspired by the empire she has built on her own personal values that a… Read More
If New Yorkers are flocking to the southern tip of Manhattan on a cold and windy Saturday night, there has to be something worth going for: a can’t-miss sample sale, a celeb appearance or perhaps to check out Danny Meyer’s latest eatery, North End Grill. On any given weeknight in my quiet and cozy TriBeCa neighborhood, most of the popular… Read More
I used to be sick all the time. I was seriously that girl who got a cold that wouldn’t go away and then when it finally did, two weeks later I’d be wiped out in bed with a case of the flu or something like it. No fun. Illness is now very rare for me and when I do get… Read More

Volunteering has always been a big part of my life and I love that the NYJL not only offers an opportunity to volunteer on a committee of my choosing but that I have had the opportunity to enhance my… Read More

I’ve been feeling lately like certain parts of my apartment were falling victim to my habit of accumulating. So… Read More

I’ve been selected as a VIP Blogger for the event so I’ll be blogging live all weekend. But that’s not the only reason I’m excited for this can’t-miss event. Here’s what’s also getting my green juice flowing:… Read More
One of my first memories of Sharon Gannon, co-founder of the Jivamukti Yoga School and Method, was in a Thursday night meditation class at the Union Square studio almost six years ago. I had never meditated before and although intimidated, I felt guided to “learn how.” I struggled to sit still and my feet fell asleep but Sharon’s calm and… Read More
You asked for it, so I’m giving it to you right here on my blog! As a New Yorker, I like to dine at all the hippest restaurants but that doesnโt mean I sacrifice my healthy lifestyle.

I live in Tribeca, just steps away from the Brooklyn Bridge. I often run over the bridge but I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve taken a leisurely stroll over it. One of those times was earlier this month when I wanted to slow down so I spent a cold Saturday afternoon alone with my camera… Read More
