How to eat healthy out of a hotel room


We’ve all been there: staying at a hotel, with nothing healthy to eat.

There’s no kitchen even if you tried to eat better. Maybe there’s not even a grocery store nearby.

But if you have a mini-fridge, there are solutions! It can be SO easy to eat healthy and avoid going out to restaurants 3x per day.

Here’s how to eat healthy of a hotel room:

Tip #1: One of the other practitioners attending the business retreat I went to last week had the GENIUS idea of ordering groceries for delivery from Whole Foods (available with Amazon Prime). This was perfect for ordering items for an easy-to-make breakfast and light lunch! The delivery order was dropped off at the hotel’s front desk.

Tip #2: Opt for items that you can combine with other ingredients to make more variety. E.g. hummus can be used as a dip for veggies, or spread onto a tortilla for a wrap. Romaine hearts can be used to dip into hummus, or added to a wrap for a nice crunch.

Tip #3: Bring ingredients from home to supplement. E.g. I brought protein powder in a plastic baggie to add to my Greek yogurt, which I then topped with blueberries. (I used the Designs for Health Chocolate PurePaleo Bone Broth Protein Powder which you can buy for 10% off on Fullscript after creating an account)

Tip #4: I recommend focusing on 2 things: protein + fiber. That’s what will keep you full, regular in the bathroom, and energized.

Here’s my Whole Foods grocery order. This was enough for 2 breakfasts and 1 lunch:

  • Greek yogurt (+I added my protein powder) (protein)
  • Blueberries (fiber)
  • GF high-protein egg wraps (protein)
  • Organic sliced turkey breast (protein)
  • Hummus (fiber + protein)
  • Romaine hearts (fiber)

It’s all so simple, but it provides just enough variety, and keeps me healthy & full.

Hope this gives you some ideas for your next hotel stay 🤎

In health,

Strength training is everywhere right now - which I’m super happy about! Other than the obvious aesthetic benefits, lifting weights also improves many other systems in the body. Here's what research tells us about strength training: ✨ Muscle preservation outlasts other fitness adaptations - you lose strength more slowly than stamina or flexibility after a break ✨ Hormonal benefits - improved testosterone in men, better hormonal balance in women, which directly impacts mood and anxiety ✨...

Here's my first newsletter since having a baby 7+ weeks ago! I'm frantically typing up this newsletter while baby Teja is still sleeping... I mentioned on my belly growing post on Instagram that I would share more details & photos from my birth on this more private platform... so ready or not, here it is. We were lucky to have a home birth - it's so interesting how everyone has their own preferences for where they feel safe. I knew that I would feel much safer at home than I would at a...

Still pregnant as I write this... it's Tuesday 6/23 and baby is now over a week late, which feels like the universe giving me a lesson to surrender! Baby will come when baby is ready, and all I can do is let go and trust the timing... so we'll see when this little one decides to make an appearance! Last weekend we celebrated a small Blessingway. In case you've never heard of one, a Blessingway is a sacred ceremony traditionally practiced by the Navajo people to honor and support a woman as...
