Join the Crazy Sexy Picnic Palooza!
May 20, 2013
Hi Sweet Friends, There’s a warm, earthy smell in the air. The jazzy birds are singing. Summer is nearly here, which means it’s time for my favorite activity of all — picnics! I heart picnics so much that I’ve been known to blanket crash a few in my day. If you haven’t caught the fever, now is the time. Saunter outside, sit your winter tush on a quilt and nosh in the fresh air. Lunch… Read More >
What’s in my pantry?
May 6, 2013
Hi Sweet Friends, My pantry is the trusty scout leader of my kitchen — always prepared! Over time, I’ve stocked my pantry with items that are the foundation for my meals and can be used in a variety of recipes or all on their own. Once you begin to collect your own favorite pantry pals, you’ll see a few things shrink: your grocery bill, your shopping list and your meal planning woes. Suddenly, half your… Read More >
How To Live in Harmony with High-Fiber Foods
April 22, 2013
Hi Sweet Friends, Sometimes when folks add more veggies and fiber-filled foods to their plate, their digestive system doesn’t cooperate very well and uncomfortable physical issues crop up. These not-so-awesome bathroom trips and embarrassing gassy moments have given fiber a bad name. But fiber really is your friend — you just have to get to know it a little better and learn a few simple fiber guidelines. Today, I hope to mend any grudges you… Read More >
What’s in my fridge?
April 8, 2013
Hi Sweet Friends, My refrigerator is powerful. In fact, it has a direct link to my overall well-being. This week I’m opening my doors in order to give you an in-depth look at my plant-happy haul. Disclaimer: My fridge isn’t always this shiny and clean (I dolled it up for you). And it’s not usually this packed (I wanted to show you my favorite goodies all at once), but I do stock it up with… Read More >
How to do less and live more
March 18, 2013
How can you make room for your well-being when there aren’t enough hours (or coffee) in the ever-exhausting day? We’ve been asking ourselves this question for decades. This isn’t breaking news. We all know that our lives are overbooked, and it seems to be getting worse. But lately I’ve been wondering if we’re busier than we really need to be. Are we creating extra work and obligations for ourselves by thinking we’re more essential than… Read More >
Quantum Biology
April 11, 2012
By Dr. Brian Clement
During the last few months I have taken individual threads that have been hanging around in my mind for years and began to weave them into a book that I expect to finish by 2014. After four decades of working on the front lines of disease reversal and life prolonging with pure organic and plant-based methods, a vivid pattern of cause and effect has emerged. For so long, my mind labored in the arena that… Read More >
Healthy Is the New Sexy
January 16, 2012
By Guest Blogger
So you’re a “wellness warrior,” but for some reason you are still not always practicing what you preach with self-care, and everything you’ve been “meaning to get back into for a while now” still keeps getting put on the back burner. What gives? I am not here today to mother you. Lordy … I don’t want that job. But I am here to take a stand for what I know is possible when you commit… Read More >
Widening the Circle: Being a Wellness Ambassador
September 14, 2011
By Jen Louden
You have a passion for all things healthy, green, raw, vegan – some or all of the above – and more! You’ve learned and are learning so much about green smoothies, dry body-brushing and kale crackers, it can start to make you feel a tad insane when people just. Don’t. Get. It. After all, it’s for their own good. You want soaring health and energy for them, and hey, it would be nice to be… Read More >
Don’t Settle for Being Well. Be Vital!
May 20, 2011
By Lissa Rankin MD
I’m so honored to be here with my new girl crush BFF Kris Carr on the main stage with all you Wellness Warriors to share with you why I believe you can be your own doctor. Because you can, you know … But first let me tell you why I went to school for 12 years to become a doctor – and then quit. I could write a novel about that. But to make a… Read More >
How Meditation Benefits Your Fitness Plan
February 22, 2011
By Guest Blogger
by Stuart Watkins Before reading this, give yourself a few breaths of stillness. Close your eyes, connect with yourself and just breathe. Feel immense gratitude for who you are, for what is flowing in your life and for exactly where you are. Just observe how healing, inspiring and refreshing it is to be still, to breathe mindfully and to be grateful. In this stillness lies an abundance of wisdom, creativity, healing, truth and inspiration. I’m… Read More >
Kris Carr’s 21- Day Crazy Sexy Cleanse
January 31, 2011
By Guest Blogger
What insane person would choose to do a 21-day cleanse in the first weeks of December with nothing but parties and festivities ahead? Me! On November 13, 2010, I declared myself a mess physically, mentally and spiritually. No spark, no twinkle, no joy and a muffin top that turned into a layered cake from under my bra line to my knees. With dismal blood results (nonexistent immune system) and a desire to have someone brutally… Read More >
Love List: Join the Crazy Sexy Diet Revolution!
January 26, 2011
I am blown away, humbled and stoked! Guess what? We find out whether we made the New York Times Bestseller list TONIGHT. Am I nervous? No. In fact, I’ll go out on a limb, against all my superstitious judgment, and say that I think we did it! I think YOU did it. But you know what’s bigger than the acknowledgments? The movement we’ve created. I see it firsthand. I see it in the bookstores,… Read More >

The Secret to Making Your Detox Effective
October 22, 2010
By Frank Lipman, MD
What is detoxification? Detoxification is what your body does naturally to neutralize, transform or get rid of unwanted materials or toxins. Although it is mostly ignored by our current medical system, the detoxification system is a key component of our body’s functioning, constantly working and interacting with all the other functions of the body. So a good detox program improves and optimizes the function of your body’s own built-in detoxification systems. This is done by… Read More >
Integrative Cancer Treatment
October 11, 2010
By Guest Blogger
This Oct. 6 marked a landmark day I have been dreaming of. Five years ago I was told that if I had surgery and did chemo and radiation, I had a good chance of living another five years. Well here it is. Although I did do some chemo – a decision I question frequently – I did not do surgery or radiation and live with my breast cancer tumor every day. I am not cocky… Read More >
Be a listener not a fixer
October 8, 2010
Recently, I stumbled upon a big ole pot of wisdom after doing some inner detective work and reflecting on the lessons I’ve learned through my fabulous coaching practice. It’s pretty simple. People don’t want you to fix them. They want you to LISTEN. Not only is being a fixer-upper a drag for others, it’s a major energy drain for you. My friends and family don’t need me digging into their business night and day, they… Read More >
Six-Time Cancer Survivor Discovers Wellness
October 4, 2010
By Guest Blogger
What would you do if your doctor told you that you had cancer? What would you do if he or she told you that you had cancer for the sixth time? Not many people can answer that question. In fact, my oncologist once told me that he couldn’t even give me a prognosis because there are perhaps only 12 people on the entire planet who have gone through what I had gone through and survived.… Read More >

Seth Godin & Power Storming
September 17, 2010
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_NOCptyi1c Today I’m talking about throwing caution to the wind. Do you find yourself getting stuck because you’re afraid something won’t be perfect? I know I fall into that trap time and time again and frankly it’s a bore, snooze, blah. This morning, an email from Seth Godin inspired me to reinvent a program I’ve been developing over the past few months and I am so excited to share it with you today…POWER STORMING! I’ll… Read More >
Trust & Calling Conditions
September 3, 2010
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8Qwp6Tisq4 Do you trust your inner wisdom or do you bounce around like a beach ball listening to everyone else’s advice but your own? When our minds are full of noise and confusion it’s hard to get to the heart of our true needs, emotions and feelings. Even though I’ve learned this lesson hundreds of times, I can easily forget my own advice. Luckily, one of my treasured mentors, Dean Ornish MD, saw this block… Read More >
