Hallelujah, I made it to my final day of the cleanse! I can honestly say I’ve never thought more about food than I have in the past 72 hours, and I’m excited for this experience to finish. At the same time, I’m shocked at how much energy I have (I’m…
When I woke up on day two of my Juiz~s three-day cleanse, my headache was gone and I was feeling surprisingly alert. The morning passed smoothly with minimal food hallucinations. Later that day I caught up with Sylvia van Alphen, owner of Juiz~s and health expert. She bought the business a little over a…
For most people, Monday mornings are a bit of a drag. But this Monday in particular I have been dreading more than others. I’m nervous and anxious but oddly excited at the same time, as my three-day juice cleanse with Juisz~s is beginning. I discovered Juisz~s through a simple Google…
A lot of friends like to ask me about the latest “it” foods, and matcha green tea is definitely one of them. But while matcha is a relatively new trend in healthy eating today, it’s actually been around for hundreds of years – and for good reason. It was used…
Een weekend weg in eigen land bestaat binnen mijn vriendenkring meestal uit het bezoeken van een andere stad met de meiden om daar even los te gaan (je moet immers weten wat de plaatselijke kroeg in Brabant of Groningen te bieden heeft).

Moon Juice is a California-based company that’s like a modern-day apothecary for mind and body-enhancing remedies including cold-pressed organic juices, cleansing programs, “moon milks” and “moon dusts.” All their products are…
The building where the new ‘enlighten-your-busy-lifestyle’-shop, slash health cafe, slash yoga hangout YAY is now located, used to house international ad agency SID LEE’s Dutch HQ. Aside from the cafe part which remained and got refreshed, you wouldn’t recognize it. Nowadays, healthy juices are served in the area previously meant to hedonistically start the…
Op de locatie waar nu drukke-levensstijl-‘verlichtende’-winkel, slash health café, slash yoga hangout YAY huist, zat eerst het hoofdgedeelte van internationaal reclamebureel SID LEE. Dat zag er toen heel anders uit, al was het café-gedeelte er al wel. Er werd tijdens de vrijmibo echter iets anders geserveerd dan gezonde sappen! Van FOMO naar…
