Meatless Monday: Three Ketogenic and Ayurvedic Smoothies For Each Dosha
Can the Ketogenic Diet (high-fat, low-carb diet) go hand-in-hand with Ayurveda (the world’s oldest health system) and raw veganism (the practice of eating only raw fruits/vegetables/nuts/seeds?) Absolutely! One of my favorite ways are smoothies.
Travel Tuesday: Bishop's Peak
Situated right in California's Central Coast region is the beautiful city of San Luis Obispo, located almost directly between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The city has some amazing climbing, some of our wolfpack dudes took the short trip to Bishop Peak to test out some joggers! Bishop Peak is one of the Nine Sister, or the Morros- a chain of volcanic mountains in San Luis Obispo. While June is peak climbing season here, you can get a good day with some pretty amazing views through September.
Meatless Monday: Super Fresh Strawberry Jam
Jam was seriously my jam growing up (well mostly jelly.) It’s sweet without being dessert and pairs perfectly well on a slice of bread with chunky peanut-butter. However, because I no longer have the metabolism of an 8-year-old (who can somehow live off sugar and not have diabetes), I’ve had to make some life-changes and one of those were saying bye to peanut-butter jelly time.
Travel Tuesday: New York City
Just last week, our wolfpack was able to head to the Big Apple for a packed few days of photoshoots & Men's Fashion Week parties! It's the city that never sleeps and since our team very rarely is on the same coast, we certainly made the most of the trip!
Meatless Monday: Mermaid Toast Gone Raw Vegan
Move over avocado toast.. Mermaid toast is the new latest Instagram craze. This inventive piece of toast, inspired by Vibrant and Pure, brings underwater magic to your mundane mornings. I was super inspired by the ombré blue color of this toast, as I love all things turquoise, and wanted to recreate it the moment I saw it. Except there’s one problem- I don’t eat bread.
Festy Friday: Northern Nights
As we gear up for Wolven Threads’ participation at this year’s Northern Nights festival next weekend, I wanted to give you guys some tips on how to make the most of this incredible festival experience. One of the most exciting things about this fest is that it is on a beautiful river! Make sure to pack all your Wolven Threads swimsuits so you can hop in and out of the water in style. They double as bodysuits and dry quickly so you can easily style them in a multitude of different ways.
Travel Tuesday: Utah
Nestled in the North Eastern part of Utah is the beautiful Wasatch Mountain Range, running 160 miles along the Utah-Idaho border. While many of us know the incredible wonders of South Utah, from the lushness of Zion, to the amazing Arches National Park, the North part of Utah is just as beautiful. We had some of our wolfpack head up to the Wasatch Range and get ready to celebrate the Fourth of July, living their Life Elevated.
Meatless Monday: Vegan 4th of July inspired snacks
Fruit trays are essential at every summer outing. Rather then running to the grocery store and buying a plastic tray of mixes fruit (it's plastic free July so this is a big no-no), create your own fruit tray and add a cute Fourth of July twist to it! It's fun & easy to make and your distant family members will think you are the craftiest person.
Travel Tuesday: Cabo
Located on Mexico's Baja California peninsula is the beautiful resort town of Cabo. It is popularly known as being the spring breakers paradise, however you can go anytime of year and have an amazing vacation. The white sand beaches and crystal blue waters are the perfect place to relax and read a good book, or hit the swells with your longboard and get in a good workout! After an afternoon of splashing in the waves and doing sun salutations with the setting sun, you can hit the town to check out some of Cabo's infamous nightlife. There's some delicious restaurants to choose from and you can end your night grooving to some local music. Our wolfpack headed to Cabo a few weeks ago so keep reading to check out some of our recommendations:
Meatless Monday: Smoothie Bowl with Salad Power Green Juice
I’m all about making smoothies low-glycemic and that means opting out of fruit-juice, frozen yogurt and excess fruit and adding in healthy fats and protein. Eating adequate fats and protein turns off your hunger hormones, allowing you to be further satisfied with your meal.. and not crave a sugary-treat later on. I’ve found this little hack- blending your smoothie with VEGGIE juice. Yes, it’s a real thing.
Call yo wife, call yo kids. Green juice + smoothie bowl just got married.
4 Ways to Live a Yogic Lifestyle
Yoga is pretty much everywhere these days. You can’t go to the beach, the park, a festival, or the gym without seeing someone doing an asana—or at least wearing yoga pants! While yoga has become “the thing to do” in Western culture, it’s really more about “the thing to live.” The physical and health benefits of yoga can’t be overstated, but if you’re limiting your yoga practice to a 60-minute session, then you’re missing the point. Yoga isn’t just a practice; it’s a lifestyle. And when you start to apply its principals beyond the mat, you’ll experience a more fulfilling life. Here are four ways you can start to live a yogic lifestyle.
Travel Tuesday: Lightning in a Bottle
Situated on the Central Coast of California is one of our favorite music festivals of the year, Lightning in a Bottle. The Do LaB throws this incredible experience filled with music, sustainability, creativity, personal expression, & all around good vibes. The Do LaB inspires authentic connections to ourselves, community, and our environment. We had some of our Wolfpack grooving through the weekend & starting their days with morning yoga. Check out some of our highlights from the incredible weekend.
