On Wilshire Blvd within walking distance from my home!

I'm so excited that Seed Bistro has opened on Monday, Aug 29th! Want to share my Flickr photos with you. The menu sample is on seedbistro.com.  Here are a few examples: Paella, Flageolet cassoulet, and squash risotto. They have healing organic vegan dishes like the 3 seaweed salad and burdock kimpira approved by Sanae Suzki, co-owner of Seed Bistro You can call 310-477-7070 for details or reservation (dinner only for now). Can't wait until they start serving lunch! Will post updates on Twitter.

I love Brentwood. I can walk to most places like the bank, the Farmers Market, the public library and healthy places like Seed Bistro, an organic vegan restaurant. Executive Chef and owner, Eric Lechasseur even signed a copy of his dessert menu for me!

I Love Brentwood

A to Z Guide of Brentwood

I practiced yoga for an hour at CorePower Yoga. Feeling energized and relaxed, I visited the Brentwood Country Mart. I took photos and posted them on Flickr. I bought an Author-Illustrator Starter Kit at Diesel Bookstore and really like the store, so I went back to look at more books. I stopped by Sweet Rose creamery but they weren't open yet. I look photos of other stores and posted them on Flickr. Hope you'll join me for a Brentwood walk one day. Follow me on twitter.com

I Love Brentwood & Culver City

The Help Group - Silver Lining Store

 

I Love Brentwood 90049 - My home & that's why I started the A-Z Guide.

Walked with my dog Sparky to the Farmers Market today. Talked to the vendors about my blog, Co-op's Birthday celebration on Tuesday 8/23 & the Good Food Fest 9/14-18. Not many vendors know about this event. I will blog about it later. Didn't have enough cash to buy the yummy dips & salsa at a stall, so went to Vincente Foods to get some groceries + cash back with my debit card. Found some organic dark chocolate covered goji berries. Bought 3 packs! Also got other healthy snacks + Himalayan pink salt. Took photos of my purchases & posted them on Flickr. I wonder why we don't have a place like the Silver Lining here (rent too high?)

Returned to Silver Lining Designer Resale store to look for more bargains, but didn't buy anything. Had a snack at a restaurant in Culver City around 4 pm before getting ready for the Laughter and Yoga class that I co-lead with Kim Selbert.This is a combination of yoga, laughter, dancing, music and fun 1-hour class with me (Yoga Teacher) and Kim (Certified Laughter Yoga Leader). Laughter & Yoga is in Dr. Oz Top Health Tips.

I blog about the Westside on my Fit-Twist Health blog at http://fit-twist.blogspot.com.

Guess Where I Was Contest

After teaching a Fit-Twist yoga class on Saturday from 9-10 am at a gym close by, Kim and I went to Cafe Rivva for a Post Yoga Smoothie that we both loved. On Sunday, I returned to the Farmers Market at around 8 am. Then, went to a big fitness event nearby to check out the Expo Vendors. Took photos, enjoyed the free samples and will follow up with some of the ones that I liked. Brought my dog Sparky along, met other dog owners and had fun (Guess 2 spots correctly, get chance to win a prize!) Returned home for a light lunch and took a quick nap. Had a snack at a mall in Culver City around 4 pm before getting ready for the Laughter and Yoga class that I co-lead with Kim Selbert.This is a combination of yoga, laughter, dancing, music and fun 1-hour class with me (Yoga Teacher) and Kim (Certified Laughter Yoga Leader). Laughter & Yoga is in Dr. Oz Top 10 Health Tips.

UV rays are harmful to your skin. Only 56% of adults are protecting their skin from the sun. Skin cancer accounts for nearly half of all cancers in the U.S. You risk of getting melanoma, a deadly form of skin cancer doubles if you ever had 5 or more sunburns.

Yoga is a meditative practice that revitalizes the body and mind, reducing stress while promoting health.  The goal is to achieve balance between mind and body through poses or asanas and breathing techniques.  My classes are fun to help people relax yet feel energized. "Yoga is a good complement to resistance training," Malibu Gym General Manager said. "It provides a relaxing experience..." I love yoga because it helps me be balanced mentally and physically. http://www.fit-twist.net
