1. Wild Card: Chipotle’s New On-The-Go Lifestyle Bowls Are Perfect For Anyone With Specific Diets

Chipotle is upping its healthy menu offerings with four new Lifestyle Bowls that are perfect for anyone aiming to eat better this year. The digital-only items are available now for pickup or delivery, which makes eating healthy on the go even easier. With the Keto Salad Bowl, Paleo Salad Bowl, Whole30 Salad Bowl and Double-Protein Bowl to choose from, it’ll be tough to pick which one to eat, yet easy to feel healthy and happy afterward.

2. Workout of the Week: Sleek, Sculpted Shoulders

Tone your shoulders with downward dog pushups. Start by piking your hips up into the air and come into your downward-facing dog position. Press your hands and toes firmly into your mat as you lift your hips high into the air. Keeping your gaze toward your feet, bend your elbows and lower the tops of your shoulders toward your mat. Straighten your arms to return to the starting position and complete one rep. [Swirled]


3. What to Watch: “Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee”

If you miss the days of “Seinfeld” and have an affinity for beautiful, vintage cars, this is your show. Each episode, which typically hovers around the 15-minute mark, features Jerry Seinfeld picking up a fellow Hollywood-star friend in a sweet ride of the day and enjoying a witty (and oftentimes meaningful) conversation over a cup of coffee.

4. What to Read: “Fun Home” by Alison Bechdel

If you don’t love comics or visual stories, you do now. Alison Bechdel marries a lyrical memoir with intricate, beautiful comics to tell her coming-of-age story. She blunders through her teens and early 20s to find herself while discovering some surprising similarities between herself and her late father. [Amazon]

5. App Of The Week: HeyDoctor

HeyDoctor is a medical app that offers inexpensive primary and urgent care via a few simple taps on your phone — no office visit, phone call, video chat or insurance required. It aims to help people with a variety of conditions within five minutes and makes access to necessary prescriptions and treatments a breeze. [Swirled]

6. R&R: Derma Rolling

If you haven’t heard about the latest skincare trend called derma rolling, get ready. The routine involves inserting hundreds of teeny-tiny needles into the surface of your skin with a rolling or stamping device. It sounds bizarre, but derma rolling can actually help stimulate collagen and elastin production in your skin. Just be sure to prioritize sanitizing your roller first! [Swirled]

7. What to Eat: Easy Blender Chocolate Mousse

Get culinary-grade chocolate mousse with your blender in under five minutes. With just six ingredients and the trusty kitchen tool, you’ve got an incredible, whipped dessert in no time. Your crew won’t believe you didn’t pick it up from the local sweets shop! [Swirled]

8. What To Drink: Matcha Latte

If you can’t get enough matcha, we’ve got the perfect recipe for an easy-breezy matcha latte made at home with (yep) a blender, milk of your choice and your matcha powder. You can add spices like ginger and turmeric (highly recommend!) or leave it plain and simple. Either way, it’s ready in just a few minutes. [Swirled]

9. Dream Destination: Douro Valley

Wine lovers need to check out Portugal’s Douro Valley, which is known for its age-old wine tasting and cellar tours. You can pay $150 per night for a hotel room overlooking vineyards with tastings and tours included. We recommend going during peak harvest season, which is in September and October. [Swirled]

10. Life Hack Of The Day: Lemon Edition

Squeeze a lemon in between a pair of tongs to get juice out effectively.
