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 relaxes me!!
I absolutely Love yoga. I love that there is always something to learn and have fun with. One of my favorite teachers said that he likes his class to be like a sandbox for us to play in, and it truly feels like that. I love trying a terrifying looking arm balance and falling on my face a little bit or trying an inversion and (safely) tumbling out it. It’s all so much fun!
I love the relaxed and stretched out feeling! I could fall asleep after savasana!
I love how you can see the changes in your body gradually
I love that yoga allows me to come to my mat at peace and leave behind all my unnecessary (but unfortunately unavoidable) life stress! On my mat, my mind is quiet and a quiet and peaceful mind is difficult to achieve in the hustle and bustle of today’s world! I would love to experience Wunderlust!
I love the feeling of relaxation after restorative yoga!
I love how balanced yoga makes me feel, not just physically but emotionally as well.
I love yoga because I know that every time I step onto my mat will be a different experience, but I will always leave feeling challenged, inspired, strong, and focused.
I love that yoga makes me feel fierce and calm at the same time!
best thing about yoga is that it makes me a better runner, and running makes me a better person. win win.
What I love most about yoga is that it’s calming and helps me center myself while still being a challenging workout. People who don’t do yoga because they think it’s just a fancy stretching class are so wrong!
I don’t do yoga, but my sister does and loves it! If I win, I would give the tickets to her and my niece.
I love that it challenges me physically and mentally….I have such a hard time being quiet and at peace, but I can really get there when I practice!
I am relatively new to yoga, but I love how it is helping my flexibility! I’m hoping soon I will start seeing a difference in my strength too.
Yoga has become my refuge throughout grad school. It calls for 100% of my focus and allows for body, mind, and soul to (as cheesy as it sounds) become one and be still. Plus all the variations have been awesome change up between my usual routine. 🙂

Love how yoga forces me to slow down while still challenging me!
I love that feeling i get of knowing that all that got be thru the class was my own inner strength.

I love the daily gift of being able to tune in to my own needs — can’t serve others unless you serve yourself!
What I love most about yoga is how good it feels to stretch my muscles while also calming my mind and whole body. Doing a lot of cardio makes my muscles tight and to stretch feels amazing! Leaving a yoga class always leaves me feeling at peace
It forces me to stretch! I don’t know why I have been skipping stretching lately 🙁
I get really bad migraines and tension headaches and often yoga is the only thing that helps!
I really enjoy yoga because I have such a busy mind and anxiety and it allows me to reach a point where I can feel relaxed for once. Yoga calms me!
I love practicing yoga. It is an amazing way to truly focus on one purpose while challenging your body to do new things. My yoga instructor frequently asks us to dedicate our practice that day to ourselves or to someone special. I have chosen to dedicate many of classes to a student at our school that, because of cancer, has physical limitations. I run and do yoga for her because I can!
I feel that it helps me to reconnect with my body.
