I was SO honored to be invited to teach two back-to-back yoga classes at the stunning Westlake Village Four Seasons Hotel for Global Wellness Day. As if I wasn't lucky enough, my whole family and I got to make a staycation out of the experience, too. Head over to the blog to hear why staying at a Four Seasons is like heaven on Earth – especially when you get to share yoga with a tribe of amazing people in a gorgeous garden! 

My amazing assistant, Taylor, and I recently visited a HEAVENLY sweat lodge in LA. It was Taylor’s first time, and she ended up loving it so much that she wanted to spotlight it as the Philosophie Heart of the Week. Read on for what to expect at a sweat lodge like Shape House + why it’s THE perfect ritual to integrate into your summer cleanse!

Just like there are “good” fats, there’s also good types of bacteria and yeasts that we actually WANT in our bodies. Without probiotics, our bodies are prone to disease and inflammation so it’s important that we eat them on a regular basis to maintain a healthy gut. While plain yogurt infused with a spoonful of Berry Bee Honey is always a yummy way to nourish your gut if you enjoy dairy, here are three DELISH dairy-free ways to get in your probiotics!

When it comes to living a more resilient life from the inside out, rituals are a MUST for living a healthier life. One small ritual every day – like making a superfood smoothie, journaling, or taking vitamins – can make a WORLD of a difference. While I feel like there aren't a lot of vitamins or supplements that I can get behind, I've been a big fan of Ritual Vitamins for a really long time. Read my latest Heart of the Week to learn why! 

Mother Nature’s monthly visit can also bring about those not-so-fun set of aches and pains. While reaching for chocolate or OTC meds to combat cramps may seem to be the best course of action, put the pills and sweets aside and instead ease the pain with a gentle yoga flow. Not only will these five poses support achy quads and thighs, open the hips, and relieve the body of menstrual discomfort, they’ll also calm the mind and open the heart.
