A Taste of the Good Life in the City of Angels
conscious living

Sunshine, Tinseltown, and legendary surfing - what's not to love about the City of Angels? We roll out the red carpet to some of L.A. 's secret destinations for nourishing body, mind and soul. Bianca takes a walk on the glitzy side at a Beverly Hills hotel famous for A-list organic facials, private yoga sessions and spa treatments to the stars. Then, surf's up for spiritual healing at the Self-Realization Fellowship Lake Shrine gardens in Pacific Palisades, where meditation, silence and the healing power of nature offer a welcome refuge from the city's hectic pace. Bianca takes a front-row seat at Vegan Fashion Week, while Michael cruises Venice Beach for a vegan fivecourse meal at a Michelin star restaurant where meat eaters bow down for a taste of the good life.
