While it’s true that we love a good HIIT workout or strength session all year long, there’s something about October that makes us want Halloween-themed everything, and that includes our fitness routines. Sometimes that means blasting our favorite Halloween cardio playlist, other times we’ll swap our dumbbells for a precarved pumpkin. (Leave the pumpkin guts

Image Source: retrospec.com At the beginning of the year, I decided to meditate once a day day, every day, for all 365 days of 2021. I had never meditated consistently before, so let’s just say the learning curve was steep. One thing I quickly realized is that sitting on the ground for 10 to 20

My first IUD insertion was — not exaggerating — the most painful experience of my life. I remember screaming, nearly fainting (I had to lie on the table for about 10 minutes afterward), throwing up on the way home, and weathering waves of debilitating cramps for days. So when the five-year mark rolled around and
It happened out of nowhere. One minute I was rinsing vegetables in cold water, and the next, I was fishing for my rings out of the garbage disposal. Uh, gross! Another time, when I was eight months pregnant in the summertime, my rings almost got stuck on my finger, and I had to stop wearing
