Health & Nutrition | Shangri-La | The Healthy Oasis

It’s no secret that I love Toronto.  My aim is to travel back there as much as humanly possible.  But, much like the many other health-conscious people out there, I struggle with the whole planning aspect.  What do I eat while I’m on-the-go?  How do I keep up with my healthy routine when it feels like there is no routine at all?  How do I truly enjoy myself without throwing off all of the hard work and progress that I’ve made?

Not only are the DoTheDaniel.com ladies (see Amanda & Catherine coverage here) tackling Ottawa and Montréal, but we are also in the midst of expansions in the west. Did I also mention that I work a full time day job AND manage FASHIONIGHTS for Julio? It doesn’t leave a lot of personal care time to say the least… That’s why when I was introduced to the latest innovations from NIVEA, I immediately knew it was a must for my daily beauty regime.
