Health, fitness, beauty: Challenges for February

February 1, 2013 by findingpaola

  Since I’ve been working incredibly long hours lately both in my regular day job and side projects, I decided to start giving myself health and fitness, and sometimes beauty challenges every month. There is certainly nothing healthy about staying at your desk for 13 hours straight trying to tie numbers in, or sitting the apartment all day on weekends to work on side projects. For February, I decided to come up with the following: Fitness: running 3 miles,  four […]

Central Park really doesn’t cut it sometimes when you really want to go for a nice, long walk in the woods.

Health, fitness, and the city I love

April 4, 2012 by findingpaola

Yesterday, I went to Bikram yoga for the first time in maybe a year.  After 90 minutes of pulling, stretching, tugging, flexing, pointing, and almost passing out, I walked about 4.2 miles home. I think the fact that the sun was still out and the weather was beautiful, it gave me extra energy. I felt extremely invigorated. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Bikram yoga, it is a type of hot yoga practiced generally in a 105 degree-Fahrenheit […]
