I was first introduced to The Dailey Method this past summer when I was asked to be a blog ambassador and take part in the #DoItDailey30 challenge. Doing it daily sounded like an excellent idea to me, and I was definitely up for the challenge. I just didn't know quite how challenging it was going to be. The Daliey Method (TDM) is not only popular in Ottawa's Glebe neighbourhood, but across North America and Europe, as well. TDM is an efficient and effective way to increase muscle length, tone, and balance, all while improving cardio strength, posture, and motivation. The work-outs are amazing and will have you burning calories while you're building muscle in a fun environment with amazing teachers and music. (This is key!). I'm so excited that The Dailey Method has opened their very own Dailey Cycle studio. "Dailey Cycle fuses The Dailey Method's signature focus on alignment and body sculpting with the cardiovascular benefits of indoor cycling to de...

Kellogg's is more than just my go-to for breakfast cereals, although eating a bowl of Special K cereal (and the new All-Bran Multi-Grain Crunch) is always a great way to start the day. I love the variety of Kellogg's cereals, but their new line-up of tasty granola bars are a great snack option, especially when you're on the go from work to after-school activities.  From quinoa and dark chocolate to mixed nuts and real fruit pieces, Kellogg's snack options are endless... and the best part is, they're healthy. Kellogg's Special K added two new flavours to their Nourish line and I love them! Nourish granolas are now available in Mixed Berries and Dark Chocolate  Coconut, which I love pairing with yogurt and fresh fruit for a healthy breakfast.  I also love the Special K bars, and the new Coconut Cashew and Dark Chocolate and Caramel are simply delicious. For extra protein on-the-go, the Vector Protein bars are the perfect choice, and a great snack to have po...

The holiday season was a wonderful time spent with family and friends, and overindulging on delicious foods and baked goods. Now that the holidays are over, and with routine finally back in our lives,  it's time to start eating healthy again. And thank goodness for that, because with an upcoming trip to Miami, there's no better time than now to get back to eating healthy, well-balanced meals. As much as I love getting back into my normal routine, I don't love meal planning (thinking of something different for my family to eat every day can be challenging) or the prep work in the kitchen. I recently had the chance to experience HelloFresh Canada , and my entire family loved it. HelloFresh Canada now delivers healthy, delicious, and convenient meal kits to your front door, so all the hard work—thinking of what you want to make for dinner, and then shopping for the right ingredients—is already taken care of for you. HelloFresh Canada takes care of meal planning, shopp...
