Bring Eden Inside With Your Own Herb Garden

Bottom line: we love indoor plants. But how do you give your Eden the best TLC when it resides on a teeny piece of real estate on your window ledge or fire escape? We’ve narrowed it down to five herbs that are happy to grow in a pot in your apartment (no backyard necessary). Best of all, they have the power to enrich your cells just as much as they enliven your space. Ancient cultures the world over have used herbs for their medicinal properties, and when we are lovingly crafting meals, we aren’t stingy. So, get a little dirty with this DIY—we swear you don’t even need a green thumb. View More ❯

3 Tips For Mealtime Mindfulness

We are firm believers in uplifting the every day, in taking intentional action to create a meaningful and beautiful life. And one of the most powerful practices we can implement to achieve this is elevating the ritual of mealtime. If our bodies are temples and food is our fuel, then that makes our meals a sacred act. If you’re reading this article, I’m sure you’re well-versed in the importance of balanced nutrition and the effect that our food has on our health. But lesser known, yet so deeply important, is the effect of how we eat. View More ❯
