Winter is here so you know what that means: chapped lips! Along with drinking plenty of water and applying lip balm, you should also be using lip scrubs at least once a week.

Looking to add something healthy and a little sweet to your fall table? How about a spiced fruit salad?

Inspired by the classic fruit chaat common in India and Pakistan, this fruit salad has spicy, tangy South Asian flair. Whether you add it to your breakfast, brunch, dinner, or holiday table, it’s sure to wow.

Cold season is upon us, so what better time to get your immune system up and running with a nutrient-dense green smoothie!

I’ve been really into the greens lately and every time I incorporate more dark leafy greens into my routine, I end up feeling 100 times better. It really is true what they say about greens being the most important part of a healthy diet, especially when they’re raw. 

Have you ever stood in the middle of an orange orchard and breathed in the sweet, heady fragrance of oranges ripe for the picking? It is truly one of the most incredible experiences I have ever had. It could be nothing less than the scent of abundance filling the air, reminding my cells that they are not limited to what I put into my mouth, but that every part of my being can, at any time, access the Supreme Source of All that Is.

When you hear the word "abundance" what do you think of? 

Money? Wealth? Riches? Freedom

Want to welcome Blue Jays, Cardinals, and other stunning birds to your backyard? The better question is, who doesn't? Birds can bring such wonderful joy to a backyard, especially in the dead of winter, or late fall. The best part is, all the food you need to attract them can be found right in your local supermarket (and won't break the bank). Plus, feeding birds in the colder months helps them store and conserve energy for when they really need it (staying warm and avoiding predators). Here are the foods that will keep them coming back for more.

It’s December. It’s cold. Fresh produce reminds you of the sunny, warm seasons. So, produce this time of year can’t possibly be all that, right? Honey, you couldn’t be more wrong (sorry for settin’ you up). Winter fruits and veggies are just as fabulous as the summery ones; they’re simply different, and that’s absolutely fine!

Tis the season for all things pumpkin. After trying some pumpkin-orange juice at a fancy-schmancy restaurant; I knew I had to try juicing this autumnal squash at home.
