If you love yoga and you love Kashi, I think you are going to be incredibly pumped about today’s giveaway!
This summer, Kashi is partnering with Wanderlust Yoga Festivals to celebrate mindful living and empower people to live a healthy lifestyle. When I was approached by Kashi and Wanderlust and learned about this partnership and their mission, I knew I wanted to be involved in some capacity.
For those of you who may be unfamiliar with Wanderlust, it is the fast-growing yoga lifestyle brand behind the five summer festivals that take place across the United States and Canada.
This year, festivals are popping up in Stratton (June 19-22), Aspen-Snowmass (July 3-6), Squaw Valley (July 17-20), Whistler (July 31-August 4) and Tremblant (August 21-24).
Wanderlust Festivals offers yoga, music, outdoor hikes, adventure runs, kayaking, paddleboarding, biking, lectures and more. I will be attending two days of the festival at the Stratton Mountain Ski Resort in Bondville, Vermont at the end of June and I would love to have you join me! (Be sure to check out the giveaway at the bottom of this post!)
Wanderlust Festivals promise to be an adventure for your body, mind and soul. The festivals bring together the world’s leading yoga teachers, top musical acts, renowned speakers, exquisite chefs and exciting performers. Attendees have the option of attending one day or several days for a multi-day mountaintop retreat experience. When researching the festival I am going to attend in Vermont, I found myself feeling more and more excited about the festival when I realized I will have the chance to not only immerse myself in music and yoga but also participate in adventure hikes, mountain runs and informative lectures about a variety of topics including nutrition, motivation and more.
Here’s a tiny glimpse at what’s happening from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. on Friday during the Stratton Mountain Festival:
There’s no shortage of things to do, huh!?
I’ve also been told that there will be no shortage in delicious food to eat!
In 2014, Wanderlust’s sustainable dining experience will be more prominent than ever and will feature Farm-to-Table dinners, high-end mountaintop dining created with fresh, locally grown foods and Wanderlust wine. A number of brands will also be on hand to provide attendees with samples, including Kashi. I am excited to partner with Kashi and Wanderlust and can’t wait to attend the festival and bring you guys along for the ride!
And that brings us to today’s fun (and delicious!) giveaway.
One PBF reader will win two tickets to the Stratton Mountain Wanderlust Festival in Bondeville, Vermont and will also receive a Kashi prize pack full of goodies I selected myself based on my personal favorites!
You can expect to receive lots of delicious samples including the following:
- Kashi Chocolate Chip Chia Crunchy Granola and Seed Bars
These crunchy bars are my new favorite! I love them on their own or crumbled on top of a cup of creamy Greek yogurt.
- Kashi GOLEAN Crisp Cinnamon Crumble Cereal
The Non-GMO Project verified cereal contains 11 grams of protein and no artificial additives, preservatives or ingredients. Most cereal leaves me starving an hour later, but this one has staying power! Bonus points for maintaining crispiness when soaked in a bowl of milk!
- Kashi GOLEAN Crunch Cereal
I’ve been buying this fiber-packed cereal for years and still adore it! I frequently use it as a granola substitute and sprinkle it on top of Greek yogurt or cottage cheese as a great afternoon snack!

Yoga is the change to say “Thank You” to my body!
I love yoga for the stretching and breathing!
I love the energy you get from the other people in the class, and getting an amazing stretch.
Yoga calms me; I’m usually high strung and fast paced, yoga brings me back and makes me slow down and calm down.
i love the fact that i am just where i am in that moment. i dont look at a clock, my pace, or my surroundings. it is a time of inner reflection and mind release.
I feel like yoga is a great way to recover after running a race. It helps me to relax and become more flexible.
I love the stretches and flexibility I get out of yoga. I teach indoor cycling and mixed martial arts. I love the feel I get from yoga after being so tight teaching.
i love stretching my body and relaxing my mind.
I love that it is such a peaceful thing you can do anywhere!
I love how relaxing and calm yoga is! I use it as a stress reliever after a long day! It is very calming!
I love how yoga allows me to be in touch with what’s happening with my body. This connection leads to increased awareness of the impact of other activities like running and biking on my body. I love the mindfulness component of yoga as well–it has helped me in many different aspects of my life.
Yoga keeps me sane! Being a military wife, our life can be so chaotic and difficult to plan however yoga reminds me to keep centered and not always try to be in control.
I love yoga because it reminds me to stretch and be more mindful of what my body can do!
The relaxation that yoga brings is the best. “In with the good, out with the bad”- what could be better?
I love yoga because it frees me! It helps me accept who I am and allows me to appreciate my body for what it allows me o do It’s strength carries me through yoga classes, running, swimming, and just overall loving life and living to the fullest! It helps me to work towards loving every part of my body without wanting to change it 🙂
Yoga is a workout and stretches me out, but I may love it most for the mental benefits it gives me!
I love how yoga makes me feel! I always feel better and stronger after a yoga class.
I do yoga before work and mommy duty in the morning…it make me a better and happier person to be around:)
It stretches your mind and body! 🙂
I love yoga as a way to wind down and stretch from my other workouts throughout the week. I typically go once or twice a week to heated yoga and it helps me center my body and thoughts for the week ahead!
Honesty is the best policy, right? I don’t LOVE yoga but I know that I NEED to embrace it and immerse myself in it to better myself as an athlete to prevent injury and increase strength. I would love to be motivated by yogi’s from all walks of life 🙂 Lol…
I love yoga because it makes my whole body feel strong!
I love how yoga lets me slow down and let’s me appreciate my body. Grad school keeps me super busy so I love when I’m able to set aside time to practice yoga It’s an excellent way to get some “me time”
I love how yoga allows me to challenge and move my body, but also relax and reconnect.
I love yoga for the workout, relaxation, and clarity of mind it provides me.
The thing I love most about yoga is the way I feel during and after the practice. During the practice I can escape from all stresses and am at peace. After the practice my body feels stronger than ever and fresh.
Ahhhh, yoga is my favorite workout. I love that it’s good for all of me — body, mind, and soul.
Yoga is something I’m learning to love, but my favorite thing about it is letting go and, even if for an hour, becoming mindful of your body, your surroundings and your ability to do things that you never thought you could.
I love that it helps to keep me injury-free!
Feeling relaxed in mind and body
I love how I feel after yoga. Completely relaxed mind and body.
I love the way it tones my body in different ways than my normal strength/weight routines do!
I love how yoga gives me the chance to escape the busyness of life and just relax and have me time!
I love the way I feel after a hot yoga class – even after a long day at work – I feel invigorated! Can’t beat that feeling!
I love yoga because it stretches out tight muscles after weight lifting sessions!
I love yoga for it’s powerful ability to pull me into the present moment and reveal the world as it really is. The practice nourishes my spirit and my body—what a gift!
I feel so at peace!
I love the stretch I receive from yoga, as well as the relaxation!
I find that for me Yoga is the perfect way to connect to my soul and I have been able to perceive all the positive things in the life only through yoga .
Yoga is one of those things I’ve never tried but always say I want to. My current gym doesn’t have yoga , and I’ve been too lazy to seek out another option. I really wish I did it now, because it would probably make a great addition (or substitution) for my pregnancy workout routine.
I love that it helps my recover and stay loose after running
I’ve actually never tried yoga so I think this would be the perfect opportunity to experience it in such a beautiful setting with people who love it and are true yogis! =)
Fun! I’d love to go to the Squaw Event! I don’t practice yoga as much as I should but I love the calm, centered feeling I have when I leave. So rejuvenating!
I love that yoga gives me a way to mix up my workouts as well as helping me stay mindful and present
I love how relaxed my mind is when I am done. It is so nice to be stress free for that little bit of time. It is also a great stretch to offset my running.
I love that when I do yoga at the beginning of the day, it energizes me….and at the end of the day it relaxes me before bed.
I love doing yoga after long runs. It always feels so good and makes me remember how important stretching is!
I love yoga because, as a triathlete couple, my husband and I can do yoga together and spend that 60-90 minutes relaxing and stretchings our bodies to recover for the rest of our training. A bonus is seeing my husband in his yoga outfits, tight pants/shirts 😉
I love yoga because it allows me to stretch for 60-90 minutes to keep flexibility and prevent injuries a runner and triathlete!
What I love most about yoga is the way it makes me feel afterward – refreshed, renewed and ready for whatever comes that day! It’s like a mental shower.
I love that yoga helps keep my hips and IT bands loose after running and how the flow and breathing helps me reset after a stressful day
