February 11, 2020 at 10:00AM by CWC If you’ve ever struggled to break out of your foggy morning haze or felt ravenous for sugar-filled snacks after a night of just okay sleep, it’s not your lazy-Sunday mentality taking over—it might be that your circadian rhythm (you know, your internal clock
February 11, 2020 at 10:00AM by CWC In the age of “if you didn’t Instagram your workout, did it really count?” fitness can feel like an all-or-nothing proposition—but it shouldn’t. Together with Michelob ULTRA—the next-level light beer that wants to take the stress out of staying fit—we’re exploring ways to be
February 11, 2020 at 02:00AM by CWC During the winter months, dry skin tends to get all of the attention. You swap foaming cleansers for nourishing milky ones, you double down on hydrating ingredients, and you slather on extra coats of moisturizer all day long. But there’s something else that’s
February 11, 2020 at 01:00AM by CWC Granola bars seem like the MVP of snacks. Not only are they downright delicious, but most importantly, you can toss one in your bag to have on hand when you’re out and about. But don’t be fooled by the marketing and packaging into
February 10, 2020 at 09:05PM by CWC Do you think you’re a social media hoarder? Are you planning to unfollow Instagram followers or accounts that make you feel like garbage? Of course you are. The entire point of social media is that we rarely follow people who make us feel

February 10, 2020 at 07:31PM by CWC “Shopping your stash”—aka making use out of things you already own in an effort to buy less—has become a stronghold of sustainability. We’ve seen it happening in our beauty cabinets, in our closets, and in our refrigerators. But the most recent place the
February 10, 2020 at 07:00PM by CWC For the unlubricated—er, uninitiated—there are three main types of lubricants available to level up your pleasure time: silicone-based, oil-based, and water-based.

February 10, 2020 at 02:00PM by CWC Even in a world that’s growing more inclusive by the day, many of us still embrace the concept of monogamy in a strictly binary framework—you either are or you aren’t. “From the day we are born, there’s an overarching narrative that one day
February 10, 2020 at 01:00PM by CWC I don’t think it’s any secret that our current food system is, well, broken. It’s not okay—or even logical—that a hamburger costs less than a salad. It’s not okay that 70 percent of the world’s human use of water goes to animal production—not, in
February 09, 2020 at 08:00PM by CWC Typically, when people want to build their stamina, they start incorporating high-intensity interval training and gradually decrease their recovery time between sets.

February 09, 2020 at 06:00PM by CWC When a wellness goal of eating healthy reaches a point where it’s totally stressing you out, it’s pretty much counterproductive. (We all know how bad stress is, right?) But it makes sense why so many people get burned out trying to figure out
February 09, 2020 at 04:00PM by CWC There’s something about buying your first home makes you feel so empowered yet so small at the same time. It can get complicated fast, making you feel like you’re in over your head. Luckily, you’re not alone if you’re working with someone who
February 09, 2020 at 12:00PM by CWC Exercise balls are primarily used for, well, exercising. You can use them for strengthening your core, improving your stability, and toning your arms. They’re not just great for all things fitness, though—they’re also a super underrated way to stretch your lower back, not
February 08, 2020 at 06:00PM by CWC Thanks to technology, we now have more access than ever to information about how our bodies are performing during workouts. In addition to having our heart rates (and more) strapped to our wrists, many fitness classes now also track our data for us,
February 08, 2020 at 12:00AM by CWC When you first fall in love with someone new there’s a fiery, extraordinarily horny adrenaline rush that makes even a trip to the farmer’s market an erotic experience.

February 07, 2020 at 09:00PM by CWC If you’ve ditched dairy for sustainability reasons, you probably assume that alt-milks like oat, soy, and dairy are better for the environment, period. You’re right. But each type of plant milk does have an environmental impact—some greater than others. However, understanding that impact
February 07, 2020 at 06:00PM by CWC Self care. Mindfulness. Staying present. These phrases are synonymous with today’s holistic health movement, but that doesn’t mean everyone’s approach to wellness is the same. For some, self care includes addressing past traumas; mindfulness involves applying ancient wisdom to contemporary challenges; and staying
February 07, 2020 at 05:00PM by CWC During last month’s full moon in Cancer, we collectively felt all the feels. But the full moon this month—the second of the decade—is in Leo, so things will carry on a bit differently. Nicknamed the snow moon, it takes place on Sunday, February
February 07, 2020 at 04:00PM by CWC Ever have something really great happen in your life and then you follow it up with an action that’s deeply self-sabotaging? If so, you’re not alone; whether or not we consciously realize it, many of us engage in activity that directly stunts our
February 07, 2020 at 03:00PM by CWC If you’ve never been able to touch your toes, fear not: It’s totally possible to increase flexibility. But like getting stronger, faster, or better at anything in your life, you’ve gotta work at it, and that starts with targeting the right muscles. Certain
February 07, 2020 at 01:00PM by CWC I could plot out a linear map of the course my life has taken to this point based solely on a handful of close friendships. Even though each pal is a unique snowflake, the retrospective viewpoint I now have has distilled the reality
February 07, 2020 at 12:00PM by CWC There are two types of people in this world: those who view the glass as half-full, and those who see the glass as half-empty. This phenomenon is called perception, and our perceptions profoundly impact how we experience life. “Perception molds, shapes, and influences our
February 07, 2020 at 10:00AM by CWC We’re one month into the new year, which means it’s time to check the pulse on the goals you set for yourself in January. Are you on track and totally crushing them? Or did you abandon ship on day two? Somewhere in between?
February 07, 2020 at 01:00AM by CWC Full disclosure: I overthink everything. Literally—from what foods I should eat to how many articles I can write a day as a freelance writer, it’s all chaos in my mind. Many times, my fear of the future paralyzes me to the point where

February 06, 2020 at 07:30PM by CWC Long distances get all the glory. Marathon training, in particular, begs for praise. After all, a cool 20-mile training run over a weekend adds up to two or three weeks worth of cardio for some. But the thing about running marathons is this:
February 06, 2020 at 06:00PM by CWC When Hitha Palepu was pregnant with her second child, she experienced two significant—and scary—panic attacks. “The second panic attack happened when I was at the end of my first trimester,” she recalls. “I think it was work stress, the stress of taking care
