Healthy happy you.
Men's facial hair has always been an enigma to me. With all the options out there — from beard to mustache to soul patch (shudder) to goatee to side burns — how does a dude decide? It never occurred to me that an agonizing day of windowsill moping, reflection dissection, and chanting was involved. Men are so vain. Read more
I've been to many different yoga classes, from Kripalu to Ashtanga to Jivamukti, and they all have something in common. At the end the teacher always leads the class in chanting "Ommmm." Om, actually pronounced "Aum," is an affirmation of the Divine Presence that is the universe and is similar to the Hebrew "Amen." In the Hindu belief, Om is the sound that was made when the whole universe was Read more
This week's Mad Men brings back a character we haven't seen in a while, Paul Kinsey, and gives us a look at a relationship between two characters — Joan and Don — who we don't often see interact (but wow, when they do, is it entertaining). Financial problems also start to make Lane Pryce sweat in a subplot that's obviously leading to something far more serious. The Paul story line kind of Read more
Republican Rick Santorum isn't known for his inclusive stance on gay rights. And last weekend, two men decided to go for romantic protest to the candidate: they kissed at one of Santorum's campaign rallies. In the video above, you can see the passionate make-out. The crowd confusingly responds by chanting "U-S-A," as the men were escorted out. Perhaps we can expect that same-sex kiss protest to Read more
Yoga is about self-acceptance and embracing little quirks in others, but let's face it — we've probably all found someone in our yoga class annoying. You may smile at them and even throw out a polite "namaste," but on the inside, you're rolling your third eye. 1. The Show-Off Oh, you can do a handstand? Wow. Oh, you can do Scorpion Handstand with your feet on your head. Impressive. Wait, now Read more
After a week's worth of TVD reprieve, it's about time we got some answers — specifically, ones that have everything to do with our favorite Original vamp Elijah and then some. From the tragic twisted fate of Bill Forbes to the shocking discovery Elena makes at home, we're still trying to wrap our heads around everything that goes down. Meanwhile, Bonnie and her estranged mother Abby are tasked Read more
The teaser for The Dark Knight Rises was a fun little preview of the final film in Christopher Nolan's Batman franchise, but the full trailer is the one that will send shivers down your spine. Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) is featured a little, but this preview mostly focuses on the villains: Tom Hardy as Bane and Anne Hathaway as Catwoman. I'm already loving Hathaway as an evil-doer, who hints Read more
Whether you're visiting your in-laws or on a business trip, spending a few days in a new location doesn't mean you have to put your yoga practice on hold. Word of mouth is great for finding a yoga studio nearby, but if there's no one around to give you a recommendation, you can turn to your iPhone, Blackberry, or Android and use Yoga Journal's new app FindYoga. This free app is a cinch to use and Read more
Prince William and Kate Middleton, who are now the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, are celebrating their six-month wedding anniversary. On April 29, the world watched as the royal couple said "I do" and sealed it with a Buckingham Palace balcony kiss. And while their first kiss was sweet, their second kiss was even better! And while the newlywed couple had the liplock scheduled (and had even Read more
Life has a funny way of working itself out for the 90210 kids, who seem to fall face first into money and fame. Between Liam landing a modeling gig without so much as trying, and Dixon magically booking a guest spot on Billy Bush's radio shows, it was just another typical week in Beverly Hills. Even the blacklisted Adrianna found herself back in the limelight after a long hiatus from performing. Read more
