Weuh! How’s your week been?
Ours has been full of wtf??? Wdym?? And then??? She said what??? Angela Yee…what was all that about???
But now it’s Sunday.
And as we all know, Sundays are all about rest and relaxation. However, as much as we like to lie to ourselves, wholesome wellness is not just about candles and bubble baths. It’s about reconnecting with you and figuring out why that thing your mom said has been bothering you so much (me??? Selfish??? Excuse me?) or planning your next vacay with your galpals.

While that’s perfectly fine and normal, the weekends are a bit of an achilles heel for those of us on a health and wellness journey because it really has the ability to throw us off track. Those few drinks turn into a drunken, hungover-worthy all-nighter; Pancakes in the morning ends with a big greasy burger for dinner; And gym? What gym? Never heard of her…Read More
