Cooking

On Wednesday February 17, health company Well+Good teamed up with Even Hotels, a new wellness focused hotel, to present a Fashion Week Wellness event. Guests were treated to 45 minute yoga classes, meditation and reiki sessions, facials, manicures, and more! Also there was healthy cookbook extraordinaire, Candice Kumai, and Dr. Drew Ramsey, author of 50 Shades of Kale.

Candice Kumai gave a live demonstration of how to cook healthy snacks (peanut butter and chocolate balls!), easy green smoothies (secret ingredient: matcha powder), and quick Japanese bento boxes. She also shared with us an exclusive health secret: eat less meat! Her trick is to think of meat as a treat, not an every day food. Dr. Ramsey also was there to give us tips on how to use more kale in our diet, the superfood. There was also yummy kale and gin cocktails, a surprisingly smooth combo.

Guests were given gift bags for ultimate pampering, relaxation, and health to help them get through the rest of hectic fashion week. In the goody bags were copies of Candice’s new book, Clean Green Eats, a tinted lip conditioner from Ilia, nail polish from Deborah Lippmann, Stem Cellular Eye Lift Masks from Juice Beauty, Pür Miracle Mist, Essential oils from Naturopathica, and more!
