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?

Food & Wine | Come and see the juicy details behind the NEW Smash Juice Bar

Traditionally, when it comes to Juicing & Healthy eating, I would leave the subject to our resident #DoTheDaniel expert Catherine Sugrue. The reason for this is that as a Holistic Nutritionist, she is actually educated on the subject and can speak to so many more aspects on the topic. That being said, with juicing and healthy food options becoming a standard in the city of Toronto, I feel as though the topic also translates over to my area of expertise since it is far from the “fad” it was five years ago. Juicing and healthy eating are here to stay, especially with it being as easy as checking out juicing and blending sites like this one (https://www.juicebuff.com/), anyone can get into juicing, considering all you need is a juicer and fruit/veg.

It’s why when I had the opportunity to be introduced to Smash Juice Bar earlier this year, I had to jump at the chance to write about their upcoming opening. Don’t worry Catherine, the next time you’re in town I’ll make sure to bring you by for a visit to Toronto’s newest addition to this bustling industry!

Health & Nutrition | Renew Life | Boost Your Brain, Baby!

Review by Catherine’s Cabinet (social links at the end of the post)

Do you know how many times a day I utter the sentence, “my brain hurts”? Okay, it doesn’t literally hurt, but my brain feels like absolute mush sometimes. We’re all guilty of taking on too much and then having to deal with what becomes that oh-so-familiar crash and burn effect. Well, I don’t like it, folks!
