An optimal   blood pressure  reading is less than  120mm Hg and above 80 mm Hg .  The first number indicates the systolic pressure or the pressure in the arteries when the heart beats and fills with them with blood.

What's Your Focus🔎?

Focus, closely associated with intention and attention, is an often overlooked human superpower. The world around us is fiercely fighting for our attention and focus — An   article   from the McGovern Institute states that, “There are constant distractions in the world, a cacophony of noise and visual stimulation. How and where we focus our attention, and what the brain attends to vs. treating as background information, is a big question in neuroscience.”  If we learn to take back our attention and harness our ability to focus we can make profound changes in our lives. So often we experience nagging monkey-mind thoughts — self judgements and criticisms — saying things like, “I need to get more fiber,” or “I’ve got to manage all this stress.” Those fleeting thoughts give way to the next thing demanding our attention, and following through with a clear plan of action falls to the wayside. The thoughts will circle back to nag, but life continues at its frenzied pace, making ...

Dandelion 💛

The common dandelion,  Taraxacum officianale , is generally viewed as an annoying, invasive plant that’s challenging to control, but it’s actually a wonder weed with marvelous health benefits that range from improving digestion to controlling psoriasis. The bright, yellow flowers of the dandelion that turn to fluff are the harbinger of wishes for children and a nightmare for your lawn. That’s because a mature dandelion plant has a long, thick taproot that is difficult to remove. Once established, the dandelion plant will sprout season after season spreading its seeds via the wind across gardens, lawns, fields, golf courses and even cracks in the pavement. Dandelion  History and Use First mentioned as a medicine by Arabian physicians in the 10th and 11th centuries and later in the 1200s by Welsh healers,  dandelion  has been used as a laxative, stomach remedy, skin toner and treatment for arthritis, warts, PMS and kidney stones for centuries.

The Ultimate Spring Cleanse

Tips on what to eat, drink, and avoid for a  seasonal  reset. We detox so we can retox. There are a lot of people who would be mad at us for saying that, but let’s face it, our “good weeks” or—let’s face it again—our “good days” (aka good four hours) are for the purpose of the live-to-eat mentality we usually have on the weekends. We hit up our favorite nutritionist,  Mikaela Reuben , for a doable detox for spring that may just get you bikini ready in a super-balanced way. Maybe it will also allow for a nice retox that includes truffle fries at the end? We’ll get back to you… Summer  is coming, and with summertime brings pre-summer cleanses and the goal of weight loss. Although there is some truth to the fact that if you eat more calories than you burn you are potentially going to gain weight, what isn’t considered is that not all calories are created equal, nor do they act the same in the body. Some whole foods actually cause the body to burn twice as many calories ...

Kapha Dosha Imbalance 🌊

Feeling Sluggish & Tired? Your Kapha Dosha Might Be Out of Balance As we anticipate moving from winter into spring, we bring with us the malaise of  kapha season . Here's how to adjust your everyday routines to stay balanced. As we move through the waning days of winter and into the emergence of spring, we’re simultaneously transitioning into kapha season . In Ayurveda, the seasons are divided into three, with each governed by a different dosha— pitta ,  vata , and  kapha —all of which have distinct qualities, or  gunas . Late winter to  springtime  is governed by kapha. During this time, it’s important to take steps to keep excess kapha at bay so as not to experience an imbalance. Just as the ice from winter begins to melt away, the kapha we have accumulated during vata season begins to release in our bodies. This excess kapha is ideally eliminated, but if we aren’t properly aligning our bodies with the cycles of the seasons , this can lead to symptom...
