It’s no debate that doing yoga has some major health benefits. But what about benefits to those with arthritis or an autoimmune condition? Well, now it does thanks to the Power of Movement. This yoga challenge to help raise research funds is now in it’s fourth year running and hopes to raise over $250,000 on March 7th. Talking with Jess McIntyre of the Arthritis & Autoimmunity Research Centre Foundation, we learned more about how she got involved and why we should too.
Today marks the beginning of Lent. And we’re taking a double hit.

As you may remember, we took Peta’s 30-day vegetarian challenge back in September. We completed it, but unfortunately inhaled a party sized basket of chicken wings on the 30th night. The thing is, we’ve grown up eating and appreciating meat (free-range as well as organic). But as much as we love animals, it’s just been so freaking difficult to neglect our omnivorous instincts.

For those unaware of the term, lodging is quite simply the aprés ski – all day long. If you like to do one run (if that), then spend the rest of the day sipping on Baileys while scanning the crowd for a cute looking coach, then you are a lodger. If you’d rather shop for the perfect pair of goggles and matching mittens, only to wear them outside posing by the ski racks, then you are a lodger. If you enjoy riding the chairlift around several times while sipping on a bottle of champagne with your friends, then yes, again you are a lodger. So here’s the scoop on the various lodging facilities near Toronto (both public and private) for all of your fabulous weekends away.
In light of Marilyn’s recent video, we’d like to talk pot, alcohol, and celebrity influences.

Her video’s all over the news. The horror! The scandal! Our thoughts? She looks as elegant and gorgeous as ever – even when stoned on a basement couch. Here’s the thing, this is not new. Michael Phelps, Woody Harrelson, Seth Rogan, Drew Barrymore, Nicole Ritchie… celebrities everywhere are being caught for behaving…like normal people. The Cowgirls did some research to try and figure out why so many are against smoking pot – but the trouble is, there’s not much to hate besides a potential death by carb-icide.
