On day one of trying a yoga pose class, you get called a “yogi”. Much like if you go to a dance class, you’re a dancer. Or if you run, you’re called a ‘runner’. But there’s more context & nuance to explore here. My background … I was born & raised in various parts of Southern India for 27 years. I learned aspects of yoga culturally. But I started…

Last weekend we hosted the first POPFLEX pop-up in YEARS! But first let’s backtrack to the star of the show, our first collection designed with a print in years. I had a feeling that prints were making a comeback to activewear, and decided to add  dainty floral print to some of our favorite designs. We called it… The Meadow Collection 💐🌸🌷🌼 SHOP MEADOW   Feminine. Colorful. Inspired by wildflowers. And ummm do you see the ruffles on the Ruffle Bra?! Obsessed. The original plan was to release this collection like any other, but then Shopify reached out and asked if…

An iconic dish that epitomizes the essence of Italian cuisine? Eggplant parmesan. While the genuine Italian connection to eggplant parmesan, or Melanzane alla Parmigiana, remains somewhat controversial, what is not contested is the gastronomic delight of tomato-bathed tender eggplant strewn in melty cheese. This skillet version does away with the battering and frying of individual eggplant slices in favour of composing the dish in a single pan to make it a more accessible weeknight dish. A popular food in Italian kitchens, cannellini beans add some heft and protein to the meal.This recipe was originally published in the April 2025 issue…

815 Do you know that yoga can fit into the smallest corners of your life effortlessly? While learning from a teacher cannot be replaced, one can learn to integrate small pockets of practice throughout the week. And guess what? It takes only 5 to 10 minutes of your day at best. There are many days when I am slammed with group yoga classes, private yoga sessions, and yoga studio work, and simply cannot find the time and space to do an elaborate yoga practice. On such days, I make peace with a 10-20 minute practice consisting of the most essential…

After the craziness of the POPFLEX pop-up, Sam and I checked into The White Lotus – no, LITERALLY. We became the actual hotel guests of a world that only ever existed on on our screens every Sunday night. Guys, when I tell you the marketing MARKETING’D and the budget does not exist. The moment we pulled up to the hotel and saw The White Lotus Hotel sign and then Gaitok LITERAL ACTUAL GAITOK (aka Tayme) casually walk by as I grabbed a fresh coconut complete with an orchid – I was floating in a dream. Getting to watch the season finale live…

Let’s talk about the most ignored, underrated, and criminally neglected muscle group in fitness: your rear delts. You know, those little muscles on the back of your shoulders that look like angel wings when they’re toned—and like deflated balloons when they’re not. If your shoulder routine is all front raises and lateral raises, you’re building a McMansion with no backyard. Enter the rear delt fly, the ultimate exercise for balancing your shoulders, fixing your posture, and finally filling out those tank tops. As a trainer who’s rehabbed more rounded shoulders than I can count (thanks, desk jobs!), I’m breaking down…
