While your essential oil diffuser makes for a chic interior design piece that also provides therapeutic peace, it could actually be doing more harm than good. Although this holistic approach to healing has plenty of pros from easing nausea to inducing sleep, diffusers can also trigger health problems if not used properly, especially for people

Let’s get one thing straight: I’m not a morning person. Due to unfortunate personal circumstances (looking at you, two-hour commute), I’ve had to forcibly become one. The only way for me to get in a workout is to do it super early, and exercise is a priority for me, even if I have to get

Studies suggests that mindfulness can improve your mental health, encourage you to make healthier choices, and even help reduce cravings.

Kate Miller and Anna Duckworth are cofounders of Miss Grass.

It was through cannabis that Kate found a lasting preventative treatment for her

Apples are a healthy staple in many households, but if you’ve heard rumors that they may be off-limits on a low-carb diet, it’s time we set the record straight. “A medium apple contains 25 grams of carbs and has a glycemic index of 36,” Amy Gorin, MS, RDN, owner of Amy Gorin Nutrition in the

If your goal is to carry all your groceries inside without making multiple trips, to have arms as sculpted as Angela Bassett’s, or improve your upper-body strength, you need to dedicate more time to strengthening your upper body.

Even if you’ve never seen a gynecologist, you’ve likely heard of a Pap smear, the screening that can help detect abnormal cells in the cervix, which could potentially lead to cervical cancer.

[embedded content] Simone Manuel and Katie Ledecky are two of the best swimmers competing today, but despite being BFFs — they both swam at Stanford and roomed together at the 2016 Olympics — they rarely go head to head in the pool. It makes sense; Simone and Katie race different events, with Simone dominating the

Originally, I wasn’t supposed to get my IUD inserted so close to finals week. My appointment had been set for a good two weeks before because, you see, I was trying to be smart. Had everything gone according to plan, I would’ve had plenty of time to get myself together before buckling down to my

To say we’re obsessed with sneakers would be an understatement. They occupy a large portion of our fitness-loving brains pretty much all the time. Whether you’re hitting the gym, going for a run, taking a class, or just doing errands, having a decent pair of kicks is important. We created a guide to the very

Fitness trackers are a dime a dozen these days, but finding one that actually fits your style is a hard task. This holiday, throw out that clunky old one and treat yourself (or someone else) to a pretty tracker worth showing off. To make shopping easier, we curated a list of functional and cute choices,

Sometimes, finding a great pair of leggings can feel tougher than Spin class. Because they all fit so differently, and different customers want different things from a workout pant, we’ve learned to listen to ratings and customer reviews when we’re shopping, and we’ve come across some seriously beloved pairs. Whether you prefer a full legging

Although I was always pretty fair-skinned growing up, I was jealous of all the tan celebrities I saw in magazines and on TV. And since tanning salons were still popular in the Midwest well into the 2000s, there were many girls in my high school who were tan year-round. To keep up, I got into

It’s only fitting that Simone Biles, the most decorated gymnast in World Championship history and an absolute badass redefining what athletes can do, has a crazy-talented, former-gymnast boyfriend who cheers her on with every win. The 22-year-old Biles and Stacey Ervin Jr., 26, have been dating for over two years, and they met in 2013

Cooler temps call for warm, cozy desserts, right? We love a sweet treat as much as the next person, but as often as we like to indulge, it’s always best to try recipes that are healthier than most standard desserts. And that’s exactly what we found when we went in search of these apple-flavored delights.

According to Oprah, it’s the holiday season — and that means her iconic Favorite Things list for 2019 is finally here. Of course, the first thing we did was scour it for health and fitness must haves, and Oprah didn’t let us down. Blue light glasses, colorful water bottles, and a Flywheel bike: take a

Over the past few years, I’ve come to love running, and because of it, I’ve completed 40 runDisney races. That’s 40 finisher’s medals that I’m very proud of, but when they started stacking up around my house and on my desk, I knew something needed to change. That’s when a family member gave me a

Pretty much my entire family runs, and the holiday season got a lot less stressful once I realized just how many running-related gifts are out there. Runners are weirdly obsessive people who care about things like organizing all of their race bibs and properly displaying their medals, not to mention finding the perfect sports bra,

I’ve always taken a vanity-first approach to buying sneakers. Without conducting any research, I’d walk into the It shoe store, pick out the cutest pair, and purchase them strictly based on their styling potential. After shooting pains in my knees and shins began wreaking havoc on my runs, I started to question my method. This

Sometimes the best part about getting fit is having a workout partner that can help hold us accountable. For Katie Holmes, that person is her 13-year-old daughter, Suri Cruise.

The couple that sweats together, stays together – right? That seems to be Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez’s motto, as the former Yankees player recently shared another joint workout video on Instagram. The soon-to-be husband and wife powered through an intense gym session, which they graciously captured on camera so we can all incorporate their

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is one of the world’s most dominant sprinters. At 32, the Jamaican athlete has been to three Olympic Games and medaled in each one (two golds, three silvers, and one bronze), and that’s not even mentioning her success at the World Championships and Diamond League levels. Just a few months ago, at the
