Hi HIH family!

This week on the Healthy is Hot podcast, Camille Arcese (Cami Cooks) shares her path leading to her dream job and passion - cooking. For as long as she can remember, Cami always wanted to cook on TV. But, it took her a while to realize that dream. Her family had...

Working a 9-5 job can make it challenging to fit in your HIH moments. However, working a 9-5 job that requires travel, can make it feel nearly impossible. The days are longer when you’re on the road. You’re eating all your meals in restaurants and you’re often running from...

It really is the most wonderful time of the year. The holidays are such a magical time, bringing friends & family together to spend time and celebrate the passing of another year. Inevitably, the holidays are also a time for food, and lots of it! No matter what holiday you celebrate this time...

Ok, it’s secret time: I am not a huge fan of sweets. There, I said it.

Now that the secret is out, what I can tell you is that I am still always looking for impressive desserts to serve my friends and family over the holidays. I try to find traditional recipes and tweak them to be gluten...

This month we’re recognizing Women’s History Month. And while there’s much to celebrate about how far we’ve come collectively as women, our hard-won progress is actually rolling backwards, especially when it comes to mental health.

Long before the pandemic, we knew women...

As I started to write this article I realized it might be mute. Why? As we slide into early fall 2022 we seem to be collectively coming up for air from the panda that's gripped everyone for 2+ years.  But, last time I checked it's still a panda, it's not endemic.  But most people are...

We all know the feeling of being excited about a Saturday night plan but not wanting to

throw off the progress we have made at the gym. Though our minds may tell us that these two

activities cannot co-exist, being aware of our alcohol consumption is the key to maintaining a

healthy...

The double-edged sword of social media in our society

In the last two years, since the height of the pandemic began and many of us were forced to be locked within our homes, the world saw a shift not only in our day-to-day routines but also in our way of looking at our health and our wellness....

When we think of the foundations of glowing, healthy skin, our blood sugar probably doesn’t come to mind. But glucose and insulin regulation can actually have a huge impact on our skin - in terms of texture and composition, proneness to breakouts, and even fine lines and aging.

We need...

A big part of any wellness journey is setting goals. It’s impossible to know what you’re looking to achieve if you don’t have a clear idea of what you want your end results to be. The challenge with goal setting is that goals can feel lofty, out of reach or insurmountable when...

In a time when we are all trying to find our way after a worldwide reset, I would like to introduce you to Carmelinda Dimanno, a TO yoga angel. I first heard about Carmelinda through a girlfriend of mine who was raving about her classes, energy and coaching style.  As someone who has been in...

Self-care doesn’t have to mean $400 spa treatments and a 14-step skincare routine. If we apply the practice of mindfulness to self-care—which at its core is just being able to maintain a sense of awareness while undergoing any simple activity—we can carve moments of self-care...

Over the last few weekends, we’ve seen nicer and nicer weather creeping up on us. Granted, my standards are pretty low in the Spring for what is considered to be “nice”, but as soon as the snow starts to melt, I immediately start to plan for barbeques. I have no problem firing...

Winter hits, and all of a sudden I have zero desire to eat salad anymore. A food I so enjoy during those warmer months just doesn’t have the same appeal as a huge bowl of soup the second it starts to get cold out. As much as I would love to live off of soup alone for the months on end of...

The backend of 2021 was not the best for me. As the months passed, I kept getting more and more discouraged, and borderline depressed, over where I was at in my life. My career was not taking off in the direction I wanted it to, the added pandemic restrictions around the holidays made it hard if...

I've lost track of the number of times that I feel defeated because I think that I "wasn't productive enough." Similarly, after a day of much needed relaxation and taking it easy, the damaging thought that it was an ineffective use of time because of the unattended task list surfaces. In Four...

Much more than just helping you “detox”, intravenous (IV) nutrient therapy has so many benefits for our health and wellness! In today’s article, we’re diving right in.

First, let’s start with the basics. IV nutrient therapy works by infusing certain nutrients (like...

Whenever putting together breakfast, whether it’s sweet or savoury, my goals is to combine foods that are packed with nutrients, and that will keep me full. Coffee for breakfast is a thing of the past. Yes, I used to be one of those people that had 2 cups of coffee to start my day and would...
