ATHLEISURE LIST | ONE19 WINE BAR + FOOD

The Lower East Side has a number of gems and we like the idea of uncovering a new find. One19 Wine Bar + Food is not only in the LES but is located speakeasy style behind a storefront at 119 Essex Street. Guests enter the store which is currently a deli and go to the back through the curtain where a 28 seat bar room (12 chairs wrap around a L-shaped bar) welcomes you.

Industry veterans Chef/Co-owner Matt Rojas (Rouge et Blanc, Eleven Madison Park) and Sommelier Gianni Cavicchi (Nice Matin), helm this new spot that is focused on Italian wines and Italian-inspired small plates.

They encourage and offer affordable wine at this destination which explores lesser-known grapes. Their wine on tap program offers an environmentally-friendly way to enjoy it with collapsible kegs which are recyclable and have a lower carbon footprint than bottles.

Sommelier Gianni utilizes his Italian heritage to create a list of wines that showcase smaller producers and lesser-known grape varietals that reflect the diverse terroirs of Italy. Most of the wines are organic, natural or biodynamic and you'll find that nothing on the list is more than $70.

You won't find Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot; however there are unknown and ancient varieties like Albana from Emila-Romagna, Trebbiano Spoletino from Spoleto in Umbria and Forastera and Biancolella from the island of Ischia to name a few.

We suggest the Freshest Flight in the City that features 4 wines on tap including three from the organically farming Emilia-Romagna producer Tre Monti: Frizzante (Pignoletto), Orange (Albana) and Rubicone (Sangiovese), along with Rooftop Reds Traminette from the Finger Lakes. Rooftop Reds will be the only non-Italian producer on the wine list. Guests will be able to scan a QR code on the table for detailed information about the wines.

Chef Matt serves Italian-inspired small plates with a New York twist. We suggest 3 dishes to pair with your wine: Pepperoni French Bread Pizza with roasted chilis and fontina; Fresh Burrata with smoked cherry tomatoes and pea pesto and a shareable Cheese & Meat Plate with Ricotta, Alisios and Castelrosso cheeses, Finocchiona Salami, Prosciutto Cotto, Speck, pickles and grilled bread.

HIT & RUN

Netflix

The best part of the holiday season is being able to binge on a number of shows that you have heard your friends talking about. One weekend, we dedicated times to watching Hit & Run, a thriller that kept us on the edge of our seats as we get on a wild ride that takes us from Tel Aviv to NYC.

We meet Tel Aviv tour guide, Segev Azulai (Lior Raz), who is married to an American Dancer Danielle (Kaelen Ohm). She is heading to New York to audition for a project. On her way there, she is killed in a hit-and-run accident.

We see Segev trying to understand what happened; however, he is left to think about the possibility that it may not have been an accident. As we watch him navigate finding out what happens, we begin to see that he is not your average tour guide as he seems to be connected to a network of people from another life that have been able to provide intel on what happened to his wife and that she was also not who she seemed.

THE ART OF THE SNACK | SAPPHIRE CUISINES OF INDIA

This month's The Art of the Snack comes from Sapphire Cuisines of India which is exactly what's needed when it comes to having savory frinds for the holiday season that provides the right amount of comfort. We took some time to talk with its owner,

Darshan R. Shah. He talks about the Executive Chef and how he came to the restaurant on the UWS. In addition, he talks about what can be expected for guests when they come with friends and family to dine. As always, we always like hearing what we should eat and drink when we're celebrating our moments. He gives us the scoop on a number of dishes and cocktails that we should make a note of upon our next visit.

ATHLEISURE MAG: Tell me about Executive Chef Sachin Wagh. What is his culinary background and how did he come to Sapphire Cuisines of India.

DARSHAN R. SHAH: Executive Chef Sachin Wagh is an internationally known Indian chef who had previously worked with me at the internationally famed restaurant adä. adä was the only Indian restaurant in the world that was awarded the coveted “Five Star Diamond Award.” Thereafter, Chef Sachin also was the executive chef for Inflight Catering Corp where he spearheaded the Inflight Kitchen. His kitchen was the only one internationally to have an astounding 97% food approval rating to the passengers in Jet Airways. From our time at adä, Chef Sachin and I have a relationship that goes back about 20 years.

AM: How would you define the style of cooking and how does that mesh with the menu at Sapphire Cuisines of India?

DRS: Well, the very first thing I would point out are the ingredients. Indian food has long been the best tasting food in the world; however, spices were used to camouflage inferior ingredients instead of accentuating quality ingredients.

Second, in order to have the food taste its best, it’s necessary to grind the spices fresh and not purchase pre-ground or pre-blended spices.

AM: Sapphire Cuisines of India relocated to the UWS, how has it been to relaunch here and to merge elements of the former location while adding in new focuses for a fresh start?

DRS: Although they were successful in their old location, we felt a fresh new start would be optimal including maintaining some of the old favorites. We have therefore re-imagined the old Sapphire Cuisines of India.

AM: What can guests expect when they come to dine here?

DRS: Hope, quality service, and an amazing food experience as we continue to evolve.

AM: Can you tell me about the interior of the restaurant and what you have available for patrons who wish to eat outside?

DRS: It is a restaurant with a clean look and feel where diners are not overwhelmed with a busy interior, but also an outdoor patio providing spacious seating and a beautiful view of Broadway.

AM: What does Avant-Garde Indian dining mean?

DRS: To us at Sapphire Cuisines of India, it means that we can have a presentation of Indian food as we “eat with our eyes.” The menu and presentations continue to evolve at Sapphire though COVID has also been a difficult time for all in our industry.

AM: What are 3 appetizers that you suggest we should order when visiting?

DRS: I would suggest our Dahi Kebab, Hung yogurt, spiced, pan seared, over mustard tempered raw slaw; Shrimp Balchao, spicy shrimp in a tangy sauce; and Vitamin bhel, millet with raw mango, gram crisps, mint and tamarind sauces.

AM: What are 3 main dishes that we should enjoy when visiting?

DRS: Goan Barbeque Ribs, with masala truffle fries; Filet Mignon, with cumin tempered fingerlings; and our Morel Mushroom Biryani with truffle oil.

AM: What are 3 cocktails that you suggest?

DRS: A full bar is available, but the cocktail menu still being produced.

AM: To complete our meal, what are 3 desserts that you suggest?

DRS: The Masala Chai Panna Cota, Phirni Crème Brulee, and our Kheer, or rice pudding.

AM: As we begin to enter the fall and holiday season, are there special dishes or events that will be available during that time?

DRS: There were many things we had slated for this time, however, with the uncertainty we are facing, we are waiting for all these bans to be lifted and life returning to normal.

THE BACHELOR S26. E2. | CLAYTON DIGS DEEPER INTO THE RELATIONSHIPS

On today’s episode of ABC’s The Bachelor, we see the women getting relaxed in the Bachelor Mansion which seems like forever since we’ve seen it. Jesse Palmer introduces himself to the women formerly. He also leaves them the first date card.

Teddi, Ency, Malina, Gabby, Mara, Sierra, Geneivieve, Serene, Cassidy and X +head to their first group date with Clayton Echard. Joining this date is Hilary Duff and the women fangirl that she’s arrived. They are going to hang out with kids while creating a fun birthday party for one of them. Cassidy is not interested in getting the party ready and the girls notice that she’s nowhere to be found - they know she’s been hanging out with Clayton and has turned the group date into a 1-on-1 date. In addition, Cassidy let the kids know that she didn’t like them and dropped the cake that was made by Genevieve!

They move on to the cocktail portion of the night. Clayton says that he enjoyed the effort that took place and can’t wait to get to know more about them. As he chats with Serene and has the sweetest first kiss, Cassidy is throwing the gauntlet of being the utmost villain. The ladies at the cocktail party let them know that they don’t like how she has acted and she lets them know that she isn’t there for that and that she thinks that she’s going to get the rose.

Back at the house. another date card arrives with Susie getting the 1-on-1 date. Back at the cocktail party, it’s getting pretty intense. Clayton gives the rose for the group date to Cassidy which definitely makes the mood shift even further.

Susie’s 1-on-1 begins with Clayton and they have a helicopter date and of course, fly over the mansion. After exploring the area, they land on a yacht and enjoy champagne. He sees how Susie is just a chill woman who is appreciative. They end their date at the Hudson Loft for dinner and a bit of dancing to a song performed by Amanda Jordan. Of course, she receives the date rose.

The next date card arrives and Marlena, Elizabeth, Kate, Sarah, Lindsey, Rachel, Tessa and Shanae are going out as a group. Their group date is with Ziwe as she plays a game to illustrate red flags with a game of “never have I ever” and then they get ready for an obstacle course. Throughout the date, Shenae tries to push her way through; however, she misses some things while being mad at others who are getting further with him. Thankfully she doesn’t win, but she vows to recover her footing at the cocktail party. Sarah wins the challenge and they are onto the cocktail party. Clayton lets them know that he had a great time and that he looks forward to getting to know more about them.

In the first group date, we watch as Cassidy goes into attack mode to get what she wants. We saw Shenae talk with Cassidy and get pumped up to also gain ground like her friend; however, when we see her on the other group date, we realize that her actions don’t quite match what she says she wants to do. When Shenae finally gets time with Clayton, she decides to share that Elizabeth is not there for the right reason which definitely feels like she is grabbing at straws on this one. He pulls Elizabeth to the side to address the potential issue.

Sarah gets the group date rose. Shenae and Elizabeth chat and we all know that Shenae tried to throw her under the bus when she did nothing wrong. Shenae outs her ADHD status in front of the women and says that she is confused about their sidebar conversation. Ultimately, the entire situation is extremely messy and leaves everyone unsettled when it comes to what they can expect for the rose ceremony cocktail party.

At the party, Eliza does the cutest mini date in teaching Clayton how to scrapbook which was cute. She didn’t have a date this week, but found a way to stand out. Shenae takes the time to talk with Elizabeth to try to squash everything (mainly because Cassidy told her to stop what’s going on). Shenae continues to fan the flame by reiterating that maybe Elizabeth’s ADHD is the problem and that that condition doesn’t allow her to remember that they had had a talk to handle everything. In the end, Elizabeth is rightfully offended and shares with the women. In front of the larger group Shenae continues to mock her ADHD to a point where Cassidy even says that she has gone too far and that she can’t support that kind of behavior. Clearly their duo is quickly coming to an end.

Cassidy leaves the chaos to take some time with Clayton - even though she has a rose already. The ladies all support Elizabeth for being classy in the face of Shenae’s inappropriate behavior. Other girls wonder if they will have less time to connect due to the fact that there is all this drama going on. Cassidy lets the girls know that she is relentless in her pursuits. Interestingly enough, Cassidy told Sierra that she has a friend with benefits at home and she goes to Clayton to let him know what she has been told. She even pulls Cassidy aside to let her know what she did.

In 2 weeks, we’ll find out whether Cassidy will keep her rose and who will be selected to continue their journey.

SENT HOME: We have a cliffhanger so no one was sent home tonight.

RECEIVED A ROSE: Cassidy, Susie, Sarah

Each night during the season, we tweet about The Bachelor and you can chat along with us (@AthleisureMag + with our Co-Founder/Creative + Style Director, Kimmie Smith @ShesKimmie) to see what’s taking place!

Each week we will let you know who our faves were from the last episode and if we’ve changed up since then as it pertains to who we think should go to Hometowns.

We also suggest a podcast that we’ve become obsessed with over the past few seasons, Wondery’s Bachelor Happy Hour to get their feedback!

AWARDS SEASON | 79TH ANNUAL GOLDEN GLOBES WINNERS

The 79th Annual Golden Globes took place tonight with no attendees (except for Jamie Lee Curtis who wanted to show her support for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA). Over the past year, the HFPA has been embroiled in a number of issues due to their lack of diversity. The outcry became so loud that NBC stated that they would not air this awards show which typically is one that kicks off the year and has a number of phenomenal looks that hit the red carpet. We’ll have to see how many changes that they have made to see when NBC will pick it up again.

Despite not airing and not having attendees, they still announced winners through their website and social media.

Our predictions are in bold, the ones in bold italics are those that we correctly identified as winning and the names in italics are those that won that we didn’t guess correctly.

Getting adequate sleep can prevent excessive weight gain and heart disease. Sleep disorders, lifestyle choices, sleep disorders, or work obligations can also contribute to your lack of adequate sleep. In addition, you are likely to have less sleep if you have poor sleep hygiene.

Mattress quality also contributes to the quality of sleep you are likely to get. A bad mattress can cause discomfort making it difficult to fall asleep. In addition, poor quality sleep can adversely affect your physical and mental health. Here are tips to help you improve your sleep.

What are Unhealthy Sleeping Habits

Some unhealthy habits include:

●     Eating a Large Meal– While your body can do two things at once -sleeping and digesting, hitting your bed right after eating is not ideal. As you could suffer from unwanted heartburn or much-needed bathroom breaks - it could also negatively affect your sleep cycle.

●     Using Your Bedroom for Multiple Things– The growing use of electronic devices such as gaming systems, televisions, computers, and other gadgets can harm your sleep. It can interfere with both the quality and quantity of sleep, and to counter this factor, keep technology out of your bedroom.

●     Drinking Alcohol, Coffee, or Smoking Before Bed– Drinking alcohol before bed can make you tired and fragment your sleep stages. It can also worsen snoring and sleep apnea. On the other hand, caffeine drinks work as stimulants and can make you stay awake for long. If you are sensitive to caffeine, avoid taking it 4 to 6 hours before bed.

●     Vigorous Exercise Before Bed– Thirty minutes of exercise a day can give you a good night's sleep. However, strenuous physical activity can stimulate your nervous system and raise your heart rate, making it difficult to fall asleep. Therefore, avoid vigorous exercise before bed as it affects sleep quality.

6 Tips to Improve your Sleep:

1. Have a Sleep Schedule

Keeping a regular sleep schedule can help you improve your sleep and help you wake up quickly. Set aside at least 7 hours for sleep, and make sure that you wake up at the same time every day. If you do not fall asleep within 20 minutes, leave your bedroom, do something relaxing, and go back when you feel tired.

2. Pay Attention to What You Eat and Drink

Avoid taking a heavy meal just before bed, which can lead to discomfort that could force you to stay awake longer. Don't go to bed hungry either, and avoid alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine.

3. Create a Peaceful Bedroom

The more pleasant your environment is, the better sleep you get. Start by clearing clutter, keep your room cool, invest in good quality sheets, and add a relaxing scent to improve your mood.

4. Limit Your Daytime Naps

The more you sleep during the day, the less tired you will be at night. Daytime naps will likely increase your insomnia symptoms.

5. Exercise During the Day

Moderate to vigorous exercise during the day can increase the quality of your sleep. For example, running on the treadmill, pedaling, or simply walking can significantly improve sleep.

6. Keep Your Stress low

Avoid stress and go to bed only when you are sleepy. High levels of stress can lead you to feel overwhelmed right before bed and result in a racing mind that doesn't want to shut down.

Going the Extra Mile—Tips When Daily Tasks to Improve Sleep Aren't Working

1. Reduce Blue-Light Exposure During the Evenings

Too much exposure to blue light can affect your sleeping and waking internal body clock. Reduce blue-light exposure by cutting back screen time 2-3 hours before bed. Or invest in UV protectant glasses.

2. Purchase a new mattress

What if your mattress is the reason why you are not getting a good night's sleep? A mattress should support the health curvature and fit your budget. Finding the right mattress can add up to great sleep. You can shop Nolah mattress online and start enjoying your sleep.

3. Invest in Blackout Curtains

Blacking out light can increase your melatonin levels and make you fall asleep faster. In addition, investing in blackout curtains can improve the quality of your sleep as they can absorb noise, block direct sunlight, and control your room's temperature.

4. Take melatonin supplements

Melatonin supplements work as any sleeping pills, and you should use them as directed by a physician.

5. Rule Out Sleeping Disorder

Review your sleep history with your doctor to rule out any sleep disorder. Then, your doctor will perform a physical exam and ask questions to see if there could be an underlying sleep problem.

Sleep Well

For you to get high-quality sleep, it depends on how much you exercise, the combination of foods and drinks, and how much time you spend on your screens. A good sleep should refresh you and keep you alert and ready for the day. Ensure you take the proper steps to get the best sleep possible

HOW TO NATURALLY KEEP YOUR SKIN SPOTLESSLY GLOWING

The way your skin looks can have a huge impact on your self-esteem and confidence, and that is no secret. This is why you find many people looking for remedies to deal with skin problem areas like fine lines, blackheads, wrinkles, dryness, and pretty much anything that prevents flawless skin.

While synthetic cosmetic products may work, some people find them harsh on the skin, often leading to unpleasant side effects over time. This is the main reason natural skincare alternatives are increasingly gaining popularity today. With this being said, here are some tips on how to naturally keep your skin spotlessly glowing.

Use a Natural Exfoliate:

Dead skin that clogs pores and traps extra oil can be removed with natural exfoliants like lemon. Squeeze a fresh lemon into a bowl after cleaning it. Using a cotton wool ball, apply the juice to your face, allowing ten minutes before rinsing with cool water. You can dilute the juice with water if your skin is the sensitive type. Repeat the process in the morning and evening. Apart from lemon, other suitable remedies include:

●       Tomatoes - Tomatoes contain citric and malic acids. These are great at removing dead skin while unclogging pores, revealing the brighter, smoother layer of skin underneath.

●       Papaya - Thanks to its natural bleaching capabilities, papaya can help you get rid of dark spots and acne scars. This fruit contains antioxidant properties that help keep aging signs like crow's feet (around the eyes) and wrinkles (around the lips) at bay.

●       Banana - Next time, instead of throwing away that banana peel, massage it on your face or skin to decrease wrinkles, treat acne, and moisturize dry skin. Banana peels are high in vitamin C and other antioxidants, making them an excellent complement to your skincare regimen.

Cleansing Often

Regular cleansing is one of the main tricks in the book to ensure spotless skin. If you’d rather not go for those harsh chemical-laced cleansers, you could opt for raw milk. It is known to help rid debris as well as dead skin cells necessarily clogging the pores. You won't have to worry about blackheads forming. It not only removes excess oils and debris from the skin, which cause clogged pores and acne, but it also includes lactic acid, which kills the germs that cause acne. For bright skin, add a pinch of turmeric and apply it daily.

Support Healthy Collagen Growth

Alongside the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, the skin is one of the many parts of the body consisting of collagen as the main component. Due to factors such as age, poor diet, and disease, this component may weaken over time so that it no longer best performs its purposes in connective tissues as efficiently as before. While collagen can be found in food, dietary collagen is not usually as adequate and bioavailable as the collagen present in today’s quality supplements. This is why the folks at Cira Nutrition would recommend taking a collagen supplement if you want to improve your skin’s glow. 

Moisturize and Massage

Ghee is a renowned natural moisturizer. It boasts high levels of vitamins and antioxidants, which nourish and revitalize dull skin. You just need to apply and massage it on your face to realize the results. Cow ghee is both suitable for oily skin and dry skin. If you have oily skin, you may add three to four drops of lemon juice to the ghee.

Putting ghee on your belly button (or the naval region) is another fantastic method to incorporate this miraculous ingredient into your beauty routine. Use it every night before you go to bed. Don’t forget to take lots of water as it’s the best way to keep your skin supple and your body hydrated.

Finally, regular exercise can help support a healthy body, including your skin’s appearance. When combined with adequate rest and quality sleep, you could easily say goodbye to risks such as fine lines and premature wrinkles. Getting a natural glow for your skin has never been this easy.

6 BENEFITS OF TELEHEALTH FOR YOUR FITNESS JOURNEY

Today, technological advancement is changing how operations are conducted in almost every economic sector. People are developing ways to adopt the new norm by deploying sophisticated mechanisms like telehealth to enhance how they dispense their products and services. So far, it’s proving to be a safe avenue that complies with the prevailing restrictions like social distancing brought by the Coronavirus pandemic. 

Consequently, the uptake of telehealth has penetrated the fitness world, causing a shift in how fitness instructors and their clients interact. It combines professional fitness services and smart devices using internet connectivity to transmit workouts. This proves beneficial for both parties involved by saving time and money.

Typically, you rely on the physical presence of your fitness instructor to design a gym workout program and monitor your progress when you attend the prescribed fitness session. It takes a lot of planning for you and your instructor to determine your training requirements and how best to achieve your fitness goals. 

Here are six benefits of telehealth for your fitness journey.

1. Cost Saving

Expenses like a gym membership, fitness program subscription, travel to fitness centers, and trainer’s fees are attached to your fitness journey. In addition, this may overstretch your finances which can frustrate your fitness goals if not well planned. 

Luckily, telehealth is here to bridge the gap by cutting costs and being accessible from the comfort of your mobile device. Hence, you’re not required to physically be in a gym to train or get instructions from your trainer. 

2. Easy For Self-Management

To reach your fitness goals, you have to discipline yourself and train as prescribed in your training program. You want to maximize any free time you get to break a sweat to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Telehealth is an opportunity to monitor your progress throughout the fitness journey and highlight points that need improvement. It can beat or surpass your targets and keep you motivated when you hit your milestones. 

It becomes easy for self-management when you have a busy schedule and want to sneak in a fitness session in your calendar. Also, it becomes easy to control the intensity of your workouts to avoid overtraining your body or fatigue.

3. Customized Training

Usually, fitness instructors ask standard questions like your fitness goal to design your training programs. Doing so makes it easy to narrow down what to include in their workouts and the training requirements to reach peak performance.

Once done, the instructors can recommend a customized training routine to follow in your fitness journey. They can save video recordings of complex workouts through telehealth mediums like smartphones and tablets that you can copy during training sessions. 

4. Fitness Program Optimization

Telehealth can provide the extra exercises your fitness trainer forgot to include in your workout plan. It allows storage of fitness materials that you can benefit from by referring to previous programs and adding fuel to your fitness quest.

Furthermore, you can use smart telehealth devices like mobile phones to monitor your fitness journey data storage and management. It can be accessed upon request to assist with the planning and developing future fitness targets.

However, the internet of things (IoT) or smart devices is susceptible to cybersecurity threats that may expose your private information. It would be best to learn how telehealth technology works before introducing it to your fitness journey.  

5. Convenient Training Partner

Looking at the functions of telehealth, in general, gives you the idea of working out at your convenience. You can remotely engage your fitness instructor for more insights into your training regime and continuously improve your fitness state.

The key is having a smart device, internet connection, and access to fitness portals providing telehealth services. You’re encouraged to train while remaining focused on reaching your fitness destination consistently.

6. User Friendly 

Judging by the rise in the adoption of telehealth in most spheres of life is enough to prove that it’s not complicated to use in your fitness journey. You can interpret the prescribed workouts and health tips to boost your fitness condition.

In addition, you can get real-time results translated from the data saved in the telehealth systems to evaluate your performance on exercises in your training programs.

Conclusion

The benefits of incorporating telehealth in your fitness journey have a common foundation—convenience and low costs. You can access your fitness program, follow the right training requirements, and monitor your progress while reaching your fitness goals.

However, it is essential to learn how the telehealth systems operate to avoid confusion when translating the prescribed fitness plans. Also, ensure that you consult your fitness instructor before introducing such technologies in your fitness journey.
