August 27, 2019 at 11:12PM by CWC Current mood: mourning the end of #HotGirlSummer. It seems like just yesterday we were all anxiously awaiting the first single from Taylor Swift’s new album, and spiked seltzer hadn’t yet overtaken rosé as the official drink of summer. Now, Labor Day Weekend is

August 27, 2019 at 07:00PM by CWC Let me guess what you did for lunch today: a. Eating it at your desk while catching up on emails b. Getting a sandwich to-go and scarfing it down on a park bench or in the car c. Lunch? Oh, you mean the

August 27, 2019 at 06:48PM by CWC I have a laundry list of items I’d like to “train” myself to do. I think it would be super cool, for example, if I could master the extra-loud, coach whistle using just my fingers. I’d also like to learn how to jump

August 27, 2019 at 02:00PM by CWC It’s always baffled me that my gray, grimy, candy-wrapper-laden couch is the setting for so much of my sexual activity. But recently, I learned about responsive and spontaneous desire, and the differences between them helped to clear up confusion about the goings-on reserved
August 27, 2019 at 02:00AM by CWC My name is Hilary, and I am a former Floridian. However: despite spending roughly 18 years of my life in the sunshine state, I rarely ever wore hats. Sunny, humid, 90-something degree summers? “Bring on the rays!” declared teenage me. Fiercely squinting my
August 27, 2019 at 12:00AM by CWC Ask any beauty expert to share their thoughts on toner, and you’re pretty much guaranteed two things: 1) they will have a strong opinion about it; 2) those opinions will be vastly different across the board. I have been team “toner is a
August 26, 2019 at 07:45PM by CWC Pretty much any time I find myself face-to-face with a professional tasked with taking care of me in some way—doctors, dentists, stylists, facialists, nutritionists, et al.—I feel a sense of shame around how I’ve been taking care of myself. (Read: imperfectly.) In most
August 26, 2019 at 07:15PM by CWC Welcome to Trainer of the Month Club, our brand-new fitness series, where we tap the coolest, most in-the-know fitness leaders to create a month-long fitness challenge. On Mondays, we have our “sweat drops” where you’ll get access to the week’s workout that you
August 26, 2019 at 04:56PM by CWC The end of August brings about several realities: summer is ending, school’s back in session, and Virgo season (August 23 to September 22) has officially arrived. In this astrological case, the zodiac wheel mirrors real life since Virgos are known for being hyper-organized,
August 26, 2019 at 01:00PM by CWC A few years ago, an aspiring actress friend of mine wrote a screenplay as a means to an end, with the ideal end being an acting career. That script did land her what some would call kindling for a career—but as a TV
August 26, 2019 at 02:19AM by CWC With the frivolity of Leo season now at your back, brass-tacks Virgo dominates the week ahead (big time)—especially as the Northern Hemisphere autumnal equinox gets closer and closer. Meaning: As the moon wanes back to new (as it will Monday through early Friday
August 25, 2019 at 10:00PM by CWC Unless we’re talking puppies, avocados, or Taylor Swift songs, I am of the belief that less is more—especially when it comes to healthy eating. No, I don’t mean less food—I mean less complication. It can be incredibly easy to get caught up in
August 25, 2019 at 08:00PM by CWC For me, “stressful” and “mornings” are like avocado and toast—but like, if the avocado were brown. I don’t think I’ve ever woken up and not felt anxiety. Or at least that’s how it was until I discovered the Bedtime function on my iPhone.
August 25, 2019 at 02:00PM by CWC To all the Scorpios I’ve loved before (and also just regular platonic friends who were born between October 21 and November 23), plain and simple, I would follow you to hell and back. Something about being born amid the crisp air of
August 25, 2019 at 12:00PM by CWC People say that perfection is overrated. They’ve clearly never experienced the joys of a satisfying a.m. bowel movement. And, medical professionals agree, a healthy stool is a great indicator that your pipes are in tip-top shape and your body is getting the proper
August 24, 2019 at 10:00PM by CWC You know the insect prob has gotten bad when opening a window leads to a whole internal debate: How much fresh air is worth a swarm of gnats moving in? Hmm, maybe if I wear a hoodie and sweats I can sit on
August 24, 2019 at 12:00PM by CWC Mention to any MD or dietitian that you experience afternoon fatigue on the reg and they’re bound to ask you: What are you having for breakfast? This probably won’t come as a shock, but foods high on the glycemic index—aka insulin and blood
August 23, 2019 at 08:51PM by CWC No shade to Western medicine, but the Chinese variety is by far my fave. My acupuncturist saved my life (hyperbole alert!) during an excessively painful egg freezing cycle, and I now rely on her for everything from herbal medicine to relationship advice (only
August 23, 2019 at 10:00PM by CWC Breathing exercises, essential oils, and even spending ten minutes petting a furry friend can all help lessen the physiological effects of stress. Something else that can work in your favor: snacking—if you choose the right type of foods. According to food mindfulness expert
August 23, 2019 at 09:52PM by CWC Cardio and strength training are often placed in two separate boxes. (Even at the gym, the free weights tend to be approximately 1,000 leagues away from the treads, spin bikes, and ellipticals.) However, the two fitness modalities don’t have to be two separate
August 23, 2019 at 08:10PM by CWC If the idea of sitting down to a well-rounded breakfast each morning before work is enough to make you laugh (Next you’ll be asking if I have time to read the newspaper!), a smoothie might seem like the perfect on-the-go option. What’s better
August 23, 2019 at 07:39PM by CWC Treating yourself to great, clean skin care does not—I repeat, does not—have to mean emptying your wallet for the sake of the cause. In fact, you can get a radiant face, by way of ingredients that don’t belong on a “hazardous waste” list,
August 23, 2019 at 07:25PM by CWC It’s easy to become thigh-crampingly fanatical about counting your steps. Despite the naysayers who claim there’s no science behind the 10,000-steps-a-day-for-health benchmark, there’s something satisfying about hitting that milestone. It’s like a shiny badge that says, “Even if I skipped SoulCycle today, I have proven
August 23, 2019 at 04:58PM by CWC You’ve already scored a healthy win just by making Chopt’d your lunch or dinner destination; anything greens or grains-based is loaded with fiber. But just like at any other restaurant, if you ascribe to a specific eating plan, there are certain factors to
August 23, 2019 at 02:00AM by CWC One of the final frontiers for body positivity in the fitness world: women having muscles. Society has a particular image of what it means to be feminine, and being shredded is often not included in that limited view—to the detriment of athletes across
August 23, 2019 at 01:00AM by CWC I like to joke that if future humans are anything like me, legs won’t be evolutionarily necessary. That’s because I sit at my desk and use my laptop most hours of the day, and then I move on over to my couch to
August 23, 2019 at 12:07AM by CWC After a day spent off Instagram yesterday, I dived into my feed for a few minutes before bed to check in on the latest in #hotgirlsummer content. But instead of a series of smoldering selfies, I found shocking images of the Amazon rainforest
