I'm generally not a shower-thinker, which maybe explains why people seem to REALLY social distance from me. Jokes aside, I prefer to get in and out as quick as possible, since in my mind our days can be

With temperatures cooling in our area as of late, hot yoga has become an increasingly-important part of my life again after taking a while off. In every class, there are a couple guarantees: sweating,

A good friend of mine is currently battling blood cancer. Her talents span far and wide, and she's very legitimately a world-class athlete that I believe could have competed at the highest level in numerous

Copy and pasted from a post I put out yesterday. For context, I suffered a subdural hematoma/brain bleed in a Muay Thai kickboxing fight last year, and had life flipped upside down for a while. Extremely

Life has gotten pretty wild these past few days, namely because my new iPhone came in the mail on Saturday. Didn't end up setting it up until Sunday night, but everything was going smoothly (and SO much

Khalil Rafati has a story that would make almost anyone's jaw drop. A now-recovered heroin and cocaine addict, he hit rock bottom at the age of 33 when he was unable to stand up from a pool of his own

I just had one of the most powerful reminders that I've had in long time. I'll keep it short and sweet, but how hard this hit home is difficult to verbalize. YOU ARE NOT YOUR THOUGHTS. We are what we do.

For better or for worse, I'm a huge Stoicism fan. It's not for everyone, but I feel as though the less reactive we can be and the more unattached we can live, the happier our lives may end up being. These

As soon as I left for my run the other day, I wondered if I was making a mistake. My body has been feeling strange lately, and I'm waiting on COVID-19 test results as we speak to see if that could be the

Have you ever heard of a fruitarian? If not, buckle up. It's a pretty wild concept. I've experimented with just about every breakfast idea you can think of over the past five years or so. I've tried high-fat,

"I'm going to try to..."_ We've all uttered this statement in one form or another. It's a way of making ourselves feel good as well as the person we're talking with; an acknowledgement that you

Whoever is able to invent a method to eliminate sleep from our schedules will be one of the richest people to ever walk this Earth. There are never enough hours in the day; between work, family, friends,

"Visualize Value" has been one of my favorite creators for some time now. His illustrations/messages are concise, powerful, and relatable for nearly everyone alive in some way. If you're posting

Most of us are lucky enough to have some forms of assets in our lives. Whether it be the standard 401K, a car, a house, or a collection of precious metals, chances are if you're reading this you have at

Compassion is defined by Merriam Webster as sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it. Being aware of suffering, and wanting to change it in some way. We've all

I don't know of a human alive who has stuck to every statement they've ever made. Us homo sapiens are big talkers; we love speaking plans, goals, and promises into the world. But speaking them into the

I'm admittedly not a big movie buff, for better or worse. I watch them here and there (mostly comedies), and frequently find myself on the inept side of the conversation when film stars or popular titles

Familial roots have been on my mind a lot recently. I've mainly been thinking about them in regards to privilege, and how our ancestor's ancestors (and their skin color/ethnicity) either helped or hurt

I write a lot about mindfulness, which is why the irony of this post isn't lost on me. If you're reading this, you almost certainly own at least a computer, cell phone, or tablet (and maybe all three).

Can we all agree that nuts are one of the best snacks around? Tasty, crunchy, and nutritionally-dense (just make sure you get packages without added corn/canola oil/safflower/sunflower oil), they provide
