Discover your Human Design type and what it means

Attempting to decode the mysterious "why" of our human existence has been a trend since, well, forever. To do so, some look to the subconscious and unconscious mind, and the modalities that help us to understand it better: think astrology, tarot, and other archetypal practices. Human Design is unique in that it combines several ancient systems of wisdom: the I Ching, chakra system, astrology, Kabbalah, and Myers-Briggs (among others); blending them into a single system to produce five different energy types. These energy types each have different ways of relating to—and thriving in—the world. Practicioners believe that by learning to work with your energy type, you can make your life flow more easily. Think of it as learning to swim with the current instead of upstream. Intrigued? Click on to discover your Human Design type and what it means.

Supercharge your health with these nutrient-dense foods

Eating a healthy diet and making sure we consume all the right nutrients can be challenging. We all have busy lives and sometimes our health suffers the consequences. We like to think that we give particular attention to what we eat, but many of us end up skipping meals, eating snacks on the go, and making poor choices in our diets. It’s common for many people to just grab whatever food is available, without even questioning whether it’s the right choice. Sure, we’re all guilty of this. We’ve all heard, numerous times, how important it is to have a balanced and varied diet, but what many of us don’t know is that there are foods that will make it easier to accomplish this feat. Some foods really do give you more bang for your buck—they’re called nutrient-dense foods. These nutrient-dense foods essentially have a high nutrient content for the number of calories that they have.

In this gallery you’ll find a selection of nutrient-dense foods that you can add to your diet. There is a bit of everything, from mains, to sides, to snacks. The important thing is that all these foods are very rich nutritionally in comparison to their caloric value. Click through the gallery and start eating better, more nutritious, foods today.
