Editor’s Choice: March Favorites
Light Returns. Energy Rises. We Choose Well.
March carries that subtle shift. The air softens. The light stretches. Something inside us says: it’s time.
Here’s what’s nourishing us this month - body, mind, and soul.
COOKBOOK OF THE MONTH
Whole Food Cooking for Every Day - Amy Chaplin
If March had a kitchen soundtrack, this would be it.
Amys recipes feel grounding yet elevated - whole grains, seasonal vegetables, deeply nourishing combinations that simply taste like real food made with care. Easy to follow recipes.
Why we love it this month:
It honors seasonal transitions beautifully.
It encourages slow, intentional cooking.
It makes whole foods feel elegant, not restrictive.
This is not “diet culture.” This is kitchen-as-devotion. And we are here for it.
FOOD BLOG We Always Return To
Detoxinista - Simple. Balanced. Practical.
When you want something nourishing but don’t feel like decoding a 27-ingredient situation - this is your girl.
March vibe: steady nourishment without drama.
BOOKS on the Nightstand
Guided by Laura Lynn Jackson
A gentle reminder that life may be more connected, guided, and meaningful than we sometimes allow ourselves to believe. A soft invitation to trust intuition and subtle signs.
March is a beautiful time to lean into quiet guidance.
Once Upon a Time: The Captivating Life of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy
Recently finished. Not strictly wellness. But fascinating. A portrait of an extraordinary woman, a portrait of style, fame, identity, and the cost of living in the public eye. It’s a reminder that outer polish rarely tells the full inner story.
Wellness takeaway? Authenticity over image. Always.
MEDITATION We’re Loving
Right now: short morning grounding sessions.
Just 10 minutes. Breath. Intention. Body awareness.
March mantra: Nothing dramatic. Just steady nervous system support.
MOVEMENT of the Month
Griffith Park – My Hood in LA
When winter lifts and everything turns that fresh, almost electric green - being outside becomes non-negotiable.
A hike in Griffith Park right now? Pretty in green. Slightly wild. Completely restorative.
Nature doesn’t rush. But it absolutely moves forward. That’s the lesson.
Wherever you are - find your version of that park. Let your nervous system exhale.
DRINK for March (but really always)
Iced Matcha with Oat Milk
Clean energy. Smooth focus. No caffeine crash drama.
Bonus: L-theanine helps smooth stimulation and support calm alertness.
Add cinnamon and a splash of vanilla. You are welcome.
Instant ritual.
SUPPLEMENT SPOTLIGHT (Always personalized. Always thoughtful.)
Magnesium
Why March?
Supports nervous system regulation
Helps sleep quality
Aids muscle recovery as movement increases
Many adults are mildly deficient
Not flashy. Just foundational. Foundations are sexy. We’ve decided.
BEAUTY RITUAL of the Month
Dry Brushing + Cold Finish Shower
Lymphatic support. Circulation boost. Skin glow.
Start gentle. Always brush toward the heart.
End your shower with 30 seconds of cool water.
It wakes up your body and your mood.
March = awaken gently.
LONGEVITY UPGRADE
Morning Light Exposure Within 30 Minutes of Waking
Science is clear: early daylight anchors circadian rhythm, improves sleep later, and supports mood and metabolic health.
5–15 minutes outdoors. No sunglasses if possible.
It’s free. It works. It’s deeply aligned with spring.
The HWell Thread This Month
If February was nourishment, March is activation.
Not aggressive action. But conscious forward motion.
Cook real food. Read something that expands you. Move outdoors. Sip something green. Pause before you rush. Upgrade one foundational habit.
That’s momentum done well.
With Love,
💚 Doris & Gaby
