Status Update #1

Topics include: a life-changing natural fiber sports bra, an overrated sauna, and colonics

A new intimate monthly dispatch for my paid subscribers.

I often get asked to be a bit more personal. That’s not what this is about, I say. Plant Based is a digital publication, a wide-ranging, well-researched online media company¹ that is about educating and inspiring my readers, not about the intimate little details of the wellness content and practices that occupies my brain and behaviors. As I write it out, though, I realize the latter provides a unique, somewhat related value to those who are interested. I don’t like to make anything off-limits to anyone—I think wellness and information should largely be accessible—so the paid benefits are only additive. A cherry on top of Plant Based’s current offerings.

My status updates will be casual, and subject to change. They’re monthly dispatches on the news I’m reading, the modalities I’m currently testing, and the routines I subscribe to but rarely talk about. I’ll talk about the content I’m consuming, the products I’m experimenting with, and all of the stuff that’s left on the cutting room floor. If you’re related to me, probably don’t read this.

This is just the start of the additional paid offerings I’m planning to roll out. Soon, we’ll have a master resource of essential NYC health and wellness establishments, and some other fun stuff that I won’t give away right now. A little mystery is a good thing.

Oh, and in these monthly status reports, I’ll try my best to do a giveaway with a prize from one of my favorite brands, which paid subscribers can enter by commenting if they’re interested. Today’s is the Everyday Essentials Kit from Rōz. Huge.

A Life-Changing Sports Bra

I’m working on a rather robust non-synthetic activewear guide, and in my research, I’ve found my favorite sports bra to date. I’m having a hard time sitting on this information in the meanwhile, so I’m going to reveal its identity.
