Hello, my friends, my lovelies. Hi Mom, or whoever reads this.

Biohacking Experiment: Chill N Out Cryotherapy Review

Hello, my loves. Just wanted to tell you about my biohacking experiment.

I don’t remember how cryotherapy entered into my consciousness, but perhaps it was through various podcasts I was listening to. I was vaguely interested in it, but didn’t pull the trigger until I was talking with my soft tissue specialist/injury recovery specialist (it sounds stupid, but I don’t know how else to say it). His name is Scott.

Back story here, I mentioned I sprained my ankle in early September, ...

DNA Fit review

So, I was so curious when I had heard about DNA Fit. It’s a saliva swab test that will “interpret your genetic data into meaningful fitness or nutrition insights, to help you discover more about yourself and make better informed decisions about your wellness,” and to create “genetically personalized training and eating plans.” Okay, I was sold. I paid somewhere ...

Connection Rio + Carnaval + Paraty + Source Temple, Etc

Sat 2/13/16 Connection Rio + Paraty + Happy Hammock 

Since the last update, I moved from Jabanga Hostel in Botafogo because it got sold out for Carnaval. Also, RFT was going to be closed too, at least partially, for Carnaval, so I accepted this. Also, I was curious to check out Connection Rio, as well, which is where I was headed.

Saturday I moved to Connection Rio in Barra Da Tijuca. It is a neat concept ...

Kickin it in Bali, 2015

Part I: Pineapple House in Canggu

After 27 hours of travelling (though not a bad 27 hours, I might say), I arrived at Pineapple House in Canggu, Bali. I was welcomed by Rachel, a delightful British girl who is running  her surf and yoga retreat based out of Pineapple House.

My time there was a bit more isolated than I had expected, but I made the best of it and read a lot of great books. (I read seven books in ...

Kundalini Yoga at Esalen with Kia Miller

Wow. All I can is…wow.

I had such an incredible time. The combination of everything..it was magical. Big Sur is so incredibly  beautiful.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then on top of that, Esalen is such healing land, with so much healing that has gone on there, that that is the nature of the land. They had clothing-optional hot spring hot tubs on the cliffside, overlooking the ocean, that were amazzzzing. I went 2-3 times every day for its healing.The food was grown from the ...

Day 16/90 Heated Vinyasa Class

Today I tried a (slightly) heated vinyasa class at Yoga at Cindy’s. I was still extremely terrible and flexible. And…strangely…weak. I am not used to holding myself in the positions specified, so ish was hard. As I was trembling and awkward, the teacher said “Find your joy!”

ummm…yeah.

I actually bought my first yoga mat (off Amazon) so I can stop renting mats. I bought a squishy one to cushion my knees. I now realize it makes for much more difficult balancing. ...

La Tourangelle Roasted Pistachio Oil

You may know I am obsessed with oils.

Right now I currently own:

  • White truffle flavored extra virgin olive oil
  • Organic sesame oil
  • Rosemary hemp oil
  • Chili flavored sunflower oil
  • stir fry oil (safflower oil)
  • Organic coconut oil
  • Garlic liquid coconut oil
  • Etc

I usually have macadamia nut oil on tap cuz that’s my fav but i just ran out but OMG. I may have just found its rival.
