Fresh is Better: Healthy Eating Made Simple

/

By Gisel Habibnejad In Miami, living busy lives with fast-paced schedules leave little room for healthy meals due to time constraints. Fresh is Better has developed the ultimate solution for this—a daily gourmet meal delivery system that guarantees flavorful healthy options. The company is dedicated to making your life easier by providing convenient options from its delivery style to ready-to-eat meals. Not only this, their never-frozen philosophy stays true to customers: “We believe in living in a sustainable way, so wherever possible our fresh fruits and vegetables are grown locally and without the use of pesticides. The lean protein is hormone and antibiotic free, the fresh seafood is mostly caught right in the Florida waters, and even our compostable delivery containers were chosen with an eye to our responsibilities to the environment.” So how do you get started? You begin by choosing your preferred meal plan (Traditional, Paleo, Vegetarian, or Gluten-free). Next, select how many meals you wish to receive daily (breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two snacks). You can also pick between three meal sizes (trim, lifestyle, or pro) and indicate if you have any food allergies. And finally, your daily meals will be quietly dropped off at your doorstep sometime in the night. Each morning, you will be greeted with a cooler filled with ice bricks and your meals for the day. The cooler bags also come with your daily menu explaining each meal from the ingredients to the calories. These bags are so efficient; you can take them with you to work, run errands, etc. It’s impossible for you to ever get bored of the meals, as each day’s meals are completely different from the day before. FIB has one main goal—to satisfy your taste buds in a healthy manner through convenient delivery! For more information, please visit www.fibdelivery.com

Psychic Matchmaker Urges Women To “Get Their Head Out Of Their Apps”

/

By Alyse Mier Deborah Graham, better known as the Psychic Matchmaker from TLC, shared her advice on the challenges of dating in the digital age in her new book Get Your Head Out of Your Apps. Graham did a Q&A session with women and men during a happy hour at Books and Books about the importance of connecting with someone spiritually. “The premise of the book is to teach people how to communicate, teach people how to open up and follow my rule of three (three dates and three months of monogamy). What’s different about this book is that I teach you how to use that part of your brain that can connect with someone spiritually and use it to reach a higher frequency.” Graham also shared her gift with some women who were looking for answers on where and how to find love in an age dominated by nonverbal communication and offered them sound advice on steps they needed to take on completing and getting in tune with themselves.
