This week, we explore a delightful mix of lifestyle events, from vineyards to fiber for sensitive stomachs, and even tried out some invigorating workouts. 1. Vineyard Revelations: Our adventure began with an amazing lunch at Union Square Cafe in New York City, where we learned about the vineyards and wines from Loudon County, Virginia. Did you know that there are nearly 50 wineries located just a short distance from Washington, D.C.? The region is a growing hotspot for wine enthusiasts, and we savored every sip. 2. Gut Health and Fiber Boost: Next, we headed to Clean Market for an afternoon of wellness. There, I experienced a gut health IV trip and discovered Hilma's new product: “Daily Fiber and Digestive Enzymes.” Shockingly, nearly 95% of Americans don't get enough fiber daily! Hilma's plant-based prebiotic fiber powder aims to change that, providing six grams of gentle fiber to support digestion without the discomfort. Plus, it's sugar-free and tastes great in smoothies. 3. Skincare Serenity: No week is complete without skincare updates! MZ Skin's “Skin Calming Range” caught my attention. Designed for sensitive and redness-prone skin, this collection includes the soothing “Calming Rescue Serum.” With ingredients like pro-vitamin D3, red sage root, and hydrating prebiotic extract, it's a must-try for maintaining radiant skin. 4. Workouts Galore: Let's get physical! I dived into three diverse workouts: Level Up with Layla: Circuit training with TRX, battle ropes, resistance bands, and weights. Layla emphasizes agility and mobility alongside muscle building. Jazzercise: A dance-infused workout that feels like a party! It's a global sensation, and I had a blast trying out the cardio sculpt class. P Volve: Low-impact exercises to sculpt and tone. Jennifer Aniston approves, and the ever-changing routines keep me on my toes. 5. Pre-Trip Beauty Essentials: As I prepare for my Mediterranean adventure, I've got beauty appointments lined up: Nails: A pedicure for pampered feet and press-on manicures for chic hands. Hair Care: Freshly touched-up color and roots ensure confidence throughout the trip. Facial Hydration: A pre-trip facial keeps my skin glowing and ready for any climate.
