Daily Five By Carolyn Brown
1. Wake-Up Water
Drink 16 oz first thing, before breakfast or coffee, to start your day on a hydrated foot. I typically add an organic greens powder or lemon slices, but the water is my wellness non-negotiable to start my day.
2. Outside O’clock
I left nyc after 12 years for a nature and space infusion in Boulder, CO. Getting outside into sunshine & nature for at least 20 minutes a day — no phones allowed — is my favorite anti-anxiety and de-stress tool.
3. Monthly Acupuncture
Monthly acu helped heal my cycle and painful and emotional period symptoms. Our Indigo offices in Stamford & Westport offer acupuncture & herbs for everything from fertility to migraines.
4. Couples Therapy
The best gift my partner and I have ever given each other is one hour a week (sometimes 2) of total focus on our relationship, with the help of a therapist & intimacy expert. The benefits of learning one another’s attachment styles & “parts” (from Internal Family Systems), thinking through our life & family vision, and openly talking about sex has had a ripple effect far beyond our relationship. 10/10 recommend.
5. Winner Winner Earlybird Dinner
I love a simple, homemade, early dinner. Giving your body time to digest before bed helps all your other regulation processes, from hormones to immunity to memory. I aim for 2-3 hours food free before zzzz’s.

Norwich Meadows Farm
After working in the dairy division at Cornell Cooperative Extension for six years, Zaid Kurdieh and his wife Haifa decided to open their own certified organic farm in 1998. Starting with just a half acre behind their house, their vision of supporting the community has become a reality and now they farm over 200 acres. Norwich Meadows Farm produces food that is free of harsh chemicals and is grown using natural fertilizers. Realizing the health of the earth’s resources is paramount in the production of food, they have made a promise to always strive to preserve their agricultural land, and to use it in a manner that is economically, ecologically, and ethically sound.
