I am obsessed with acupuncture and it’s healing + meditation benefits. Your wellbeing is tied to your happiness and productivity, and this is why most successful people commit to prioritizing health and fitness. You can always make yourself even better than you think you already are. Here, we call it
I’ve been doing the Grouse Grind a lot this summer because I haven’t been able to ride my bike due to my shoulder injury that keeps on flaring up from whiplash. I have dozens of fresh insights daily because I keep on putting myself into flow states. That’s when you
MAKE THE WORLD YOUR OYSTER BY LIVING IN A STATE OF AWE. Make time to marvel at everythinggg. If you hang out with me, you have to know I’m literally like an over-excited child… but in a bandage dress, Valentino’s, Chanel, occasionally swears, and can drink a lot. A friend
I’m all for fail-proof recipes because I am someone who once messed up pancake mix, and I just don’t like following recipes rules. I also hate wasting an expensive piece of grass-fed beef because I always seem to overcook food but this fail-proof prime rib takes a few minutes to
There are some people who are okay with living a conventional life which is 100% okay. ✌️ There are some people who were born with innate curiosity and the urge to ask questions. I grew up reading biographies of powerful women, fantasy novels with female heroines, historical fiction, and was
Staying fit, lean, and healthy year round may seem unachievable to so many people because they look health and fitness the wrong way. The media loves to promotes instant gratification such as “how to get a bikini body in 2 weeks” but this leads to a lot of yo-yo dieting, eating
I am all for spontaneity and was never the one to follow rules but I’ve always realized the importance of having a solid routine right from the moment you wake up, and implementing small daily healthy habits throughout the day. This creates the right mindset and tone for the rest
My Greek boyfriend loves his hummus, and being #cheapandasian, making hummus at home is just so much more economical. Plus it is sooooo easy and most importantly, I know exactly what is in my hummus. I don’t buy a lot of already-prepared foods because I like to curate as many
What goes up must come down. If you know me, you know that I would ALWAYS choose to climb uphill than to descend downhill. It use to be because descending gave me anxiety but these days, I just like ot make sure each bike ride is challenging. 😉 If you
Back in April 2013, I climbed our local Cypress Mountain for the first time. Last April 2019 (this entry has been sitting in my drafts since), I went up there with my best friend on her first one! How dope is that?! I probably wrote this story once long ago
PRE-RIDE If you are just an amateur athlete like me, most people don’t realize but they don’t actually need to eat much before doing a workout in the morning (depending on the intensity, of course!). If I am doing a ride at an easy pace (which is pretty much most
Back in my twenties, you would always hear me ranting, “I hate cooking!! With my spare time, I’d MUCH rather be doing something else!!” [aka riding my bike]. Now that I’m a little older and wiser, I’m glad to say that I immensely enjoy cooking for both therapeutic and health
Hi! I am Kate. I walk the walk and I talk the talk. I’ve been living a self-proclaimed “effortlessly” fit and healthy lifestyle for the last decade. This blog has been around since 2005 and serves as an archive for my journey.
I’ve been biohacking since 2014. I believe we need a balance of modern medicine and holistic healing to thrive in our world today.
I do NOT diet, count calories, watch my macros, nor do I beat myself up if I don’t workout daily. Eating well, cooking nutritious and delicious meals, and exercise is as second nature to me as brushing my teeth. How? I focussed on habits and lifestyle instead of outcomes. Wellness shouldn’t be hard!
