I am a born and raised New Yorker so I have seen the city in many different ways. The city has changed with me and with every self-transformation, I find new things to do and see. I guess that’s why it’s the city that never sleeps! It’s the city that never slows down and is always transforming itself. The city can be anything for anyone at anytime. So when you want to go out and party, the city will be up all night for you. And when you want to workout, there’s a never ending amount of boutique fitness studios on every corner. And when you want to zen the fuck out, there’s a studio for that as well. New York City truly has it all.

These are my personal favorites. There will always be so much to do and not enough time. But I believe that when you find something that works, whether that’s what you eat, where you work out, or how you relax, then stick with it because obviously something is working. I love exploring the city as I have evolved from rowdy teenager to responsible corporate America adult to wellness seeker. I don’t think it’s weird that I know where to get a really great hydrocolonic and green juice.

Below are my insider tips for being well in New York City! And if there’s something you’re interested in doing that you don’t see below, let me know! I’d be happy to seek it out, experience it and let you know how it is! This is a place to learn, to grow and to seek out knowledge in all things.

Pressed Juicery (Freeze)

A foodie list wouldn’t be complete without dessert. And we’re not talking no fat, no sugar, flavorless cardboard dessert. We’re talking good for you dairy-free ice cream made from juice! Yup, juice! Pressed Juicery is known for delicious and refreshing juices from green juice to orange juice to activated charcoal to chocolate almond smoothies. And now their juices can be purchased in a frozen soft serve form. It uses only fruits and vegetables, just like the juices and is sweetened with dates. Then you can add chocolate or almond butter drizzle, fresh fruit or granola to make it a bit more indulgent. So go on and eat your green juice with a spoon!
