Aimed at people who struggle with sleeping, melatonin diffusers are designed to give the user a hit of melatonin to help regulate their sleep cycles and put them to sleep. However, the jury is still out on melatonin

We all have moments when something we’re eating or drinking goes down the “wrong pipe,” throwing us into a coughing fit. “Swallowing food, even liquids or our own saliva, is a very, very complex process, and at every step of that process — and there are a lot of them — errors can happen, resulting

Since buying an at-home bike, I’ve found myself slacking on my arm-strengthening exercises. After 30 minutes of continuous pedaling, my legs are beat, and my sports bra is soaked — so it’s pretty easy to just call it a day. But strength training is what’s going to help me build up and define my biceps

As we approach one of the best seasons for outdoor workouts, you may be inclined to take your workouts to the trail. Whether you’re hiking, giving trail running a shot, or taking your bike to a local trail, getting outside to enjoy the cooler temps and fresh scenery is a fantastic way to keep up

When it comes to shopping for workout tights, there are a number of factors to keep in mind. The first, of course, is thinking about what activity you’ll be dressing for — cycling, for example, can be really uncomfortable in a pair of shorts — and then considering any other needs you’ll have.

Premenstrual syndrome (or PMS) is a condition many of us are intimately familiar with. In fact, 90 percent of women report experiencing symptoms of PMS, including bloating, headaches, and mood swings, in the days leading up to their period. But while you may know what PMS is, you may not realize why it occurs. You

Warm and cozy is how I want everything to feel come fall — my wardrobe, my apartment, and even my meals. I have my go-to flavors (aka pumpkin spice everything), but I also want to continue incorporating inflammatory-fighting foods into my regular diet. I turned to Lauren Manaker, MS, RDN, LD, and founder of Nutrition

For as much as I love sweating out all my stress on a stationary bike, I had always been the person unclipping from her bike and sprinting out of the indoor cycling class the very second the instructor’s final countdown is over — fully skipping the cooldown, of course. As you can imagine, my full

Netflix’s sports docuseries The Playbook starts with a riveting episode on NBA coach Doc Rivers, who led the 2008 Celtics to their first NBA championship in 22 years. But as Rivers recalls in the episode, the 2008 title was far from a foregone conclusion. In fact, the Celtics were coming off a 24-58 season that

When’s the last time you got a good night’s sleep? If you can’t remember, you’re not alone. According to the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention, one in three adults don’t get enough sleep, and a third of US adults report they typically get less than the recommend seven hours of sleep each night. What’s

We get it: when it comes to weight loss, it feels tough to even get started if you don’t have access to a gym, home workout equipment, or even a set of dumbbells. Of course, as you probably know by this point, weight loss has a lot to do with your life outside of exercise,

In Netflix’s The Playbook, five of the most iconic coaches in sports discuss the greatest challenges and triumphs of their careers. For Doc Rivers, a championship-winning coach who’s been a major presence in the NBA since 1999, one such hurdle came just months after he stepped into his current role as head coach of the

When Jill Ellis retired from coaching the US Women’s National Soccer team last October, it may have come as a surprise to some. Who could possibly hang up the clipboard mere months after leading a team to their second consecutive World Cup victory? But according to Ellis, she knew as early as Dec. 2018, six

2020’s marathon season has gone virtual, which probably means your 26.2-mile training plan probably needs some revisions — especially if you’re going the treadmill route. It’s an untraditional approach to marathons, for sure. Still, Alexandra Weissner, NASM-certified personal trainer, RRCA-certified running coach, and the co-founder bRUNch Running, confirms that it’s possible with the right training.

According to Melanie Elturk, the Haute Hijab community has been asking for an athletic line for years. “It was something that came right from our customer base,” the Haute Hijab founder and CEO told POPSUGAR. “And we didn’t want to do it unless we could really do it right.” The 10-year-old brand released its first

I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s planning some fall weekend escapes. Most of my fall weekend getaways include some sort of fitness element. Between a hike, a jog, or a long stroll around the city, I almost always have something planned that will have me breaking a sweat. This fall, I’m refusing to

Prior to becoming sober in May 2018, Erin Laraia struggled with alcohol and drug abuse for years, since age 21 through 25. “In a weird way, I felt like I had control over something,” Laraia explained, telling POPSUGAR that, when she got sober, she proceeded to feel many things in her life were out of

Lying in bed, heart racing, my thoughts are crowded with things I didn’t get done that day. I forgot to switch the laundry, again, I never responded to that email, and did I lock the front door? Sometimes, my anxiety is so bad that I have trouble falling asleep for hours. Other times, I wake
