AMRAP. For some reason this acronym always reminds me of a sandwich. Probably because I spend a large portion of my life thinking about food. Unfortunately for us all though, AMRAP is nowhere near as delicious as my breaded friend. Quite the opposite… much better for you though.

The 6 Health Apps on My Phone
Phone apps have seriously changed the world we live in. From connecting with friends, to ordering dinner, to shopping online, to taking better photos, to tracking flights, to wasting time… there’s an app for pretty much any situation you’re ever likely to encounter. But how do you know which apps are worth your time, and which ones you should steer clear of? Well, when it comes to health and fitness apps at least, I can help you out.

Valentine’s Day Un-Baking – Raw Choc Cake

But if you’re staying strong on those New Year’s resolutions (go you!) and are looking for a healthier alternative to the regular store-bought stuff, this post is for you. It’s a raw chocolate cake, developed by the team at Kamalaya Koh Samui, aka my dream holiday destination.

And – lucky us – today she’s taken time out to share her thoughts on how to add yoga into a fitness routine.
