February 07, 2020 at 10:00PM by CWC More often than not I’m twisted into some position that involves one or both of my feet being off the ground. Now, I’m not gonna pretend that sitting is hard work. But sometimes, whether you zoned out and stayed in one spot for
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.

February 07, 2020 at 07:00PM by CWC Walking into the grocery store without a plan of attack (also known as a “shopping list”) is a calculated risk. With so many shiny-new products hitting the shelves every single week, breaking the bank at Trader Joe’s or your supermarket of choice has
February 07, 2020 at 05:30PM by CWC We’ve certainly come a long way since the ’90s—and not just because someone figured out how to milk oats and almonds. By now, virtually all healthy eaters have come around and accepted that some types of fats (namely, unsaturated ones) are full of

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.

February 07, 2020 at 02:00AM by CWC When trying to focus on plant-based eating, getting enough protein is often a top concern. Sure, you’ve probably heard that foods like tofu, beans, and chickpeas are good sources of the nutrient, but the advice often stops there. What’s less clear is how
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 07, 2020 at 12:00AM by CWC You know how sometimes, no matter how much water you drink, you can never seem to quench your thirst? The same can happen with your skin—especially in this freezing, dry time of the year. All of your usually dependable body lotions and oils
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 07:00PM by CWC Vegans might not eat chicken, but—surprise!—some of us still love the taste of chicken seasonings.

February 06, 2020 at 10:00AM by CWC Picture this: You’re at work. It feels like you’ve been there for days. You look outside to find near darkness, but the clock on your computer reads 4 p.m. What is this madness, you might be asking? Well, it’s February. The shortest month
February 06, 2020 at 02:00AM by CWC If you peek into any Pilates class, it’ll look like a lot of small movements and core-focused exercises (and space-age-looking contraptions a la the Reformer). While it’s true that Pilates is centered around your core muscles, the low-intensity workout modality has an extensive
February 06, 2020 at 01:00AM by CWC Establishing a healthy mindset with food isn’t always easy—especially if you’re recovering from diet trauma. After spending years trapped in a culture emphasizing that certain foods are “bad” (and you are too if you eat them), it can be difficult to extract yourself
February 06, 2020 at 12:00AM by CWC Moving into your first apartment is one of the most exciting things you’ll ever do. It’s a major move that makes you feel independent and shows all your hard work has paid off. Officially having a space that’s entirely yours also means it’s
February 05, 2020 at 10:00PM by CWC Akin Akman spends 40 hours a week teaching fitness classes. That doesn’t include his own workouts in the gym, or the classes he takes from the other teachers at his new AARMY fitness studio in New York’s Noho neighborhood (a second location also

February 05, 2020 at 03:00PM by CWC Melatonin supplements have had a constant home on my nightstand since I was 12 years old—so I guess you could say that sleep and I have had quite the rocky relationship over the years. And, in that regard, I’m hardly alone: When Well+Good
February 05, 2020 at 02:00PM by CWC It’s unfortunate that so many people regard foreplay as if it were a flight layover—that is, the place you stop by really quickly on the way to your final destination. But, since many of us understand foreplay to be the opening act for
February 05, 2020 at 01:00PM by CWC Using quality, dermatologist-recommended active ingredients in your beauty routine is a pretty clear-cut way to improve your skin. Lesser used and talked about, however, are tools that can take the results from serums and moisturizers up a notch. Electrical stimulation is becoming a
February 05, 2020 at 12:00PM by CWC Have you met anyone who claims their favorite food—or vegetable, for that matter—is a turnip? Chances aren’t great. After all, its historic backstory is that it was once a “get off the stage” tomato equivalent of Roman times, and Michelle Obama’s iconic Vine
February 05, 2020 at 10:00AM by CWC When you’re on the hunt for a new sweater, do you opt for the scratchy, will-rip-in-six-months option, or the soft, durable, goes-with-everything one? The latter, of course. So, why in the world would you want to outfit your bed (the place you spend
February 05, 2020 at 12:00AM by CWC Concealer is the most hardworking multitasker of all time. A product that can brighten under-eye circles and cover pimples? I’m sold. It’s likely one of the first beauty products you tried, and the one you turn to even on “no makeup” days. Everyone

February 04, 2020 at 07:00PM by CWC You may notice a subtle change in the workouts that you’re doing in fitness studios these days.

February 04, 2020 at 06:30PM by CWC Every once in a while, you may get the itch to walk on the wild side of the kitchen and—gasp—prepare a complicated recipe from scratch. You chop all your veggies to one-eighth-inch (aka a French “brunoise”), knead your own pizza dough as sweat
