Happy Summer!

Hi Everyone,

Well, happy summer! I can't believe it's been many weeks since I have written. I have been busier than I expected with building my nutrition business, trying to get to the gym or run outside, take care of my children, house and carry out my PTA responsibilities!

I miss writing! What words of inspiration do I have tonight after not writing for so long???
Hmm.... I think I will keep it simple. I have been trying to focus on gratitude. I wake up and before my mind goes to everything it needs to do that day, instead I try to remember what I am grateful for in my life.

Also, I have been trying to bring this to my house and garden. It easy to get complainy about
what I would like my house to look like, my garden to be like, etc. Instead I am trying to think of how I can make it the prettiest house it can be. How I can take care of my garden and enjoy it for what it is. Take time to weed it and water it. That sort of thought process is what I am trying to implement. Seems important.

Also, food wise, I have been focusing on enjoyment of whatever I am eating. Going for what is local, fresh and delicious! Using fresh herbs, lots of lime and lemon to keep dishes full of flavor and zest!

Also, doing my best to make peace with my body. I read an interview with a woman who is doing some kind of training at Omega this summer. She suggested making friends with your body. Instead of treating it like a workhorse (which I am completely guilty of ), we should instead be kind and loving to our bodies. Thank our body for what it does and how strong it is. I have to say, this rung home for me. I would like to take the time out to thank my body everyday for all it does and how good it is to me. Maybe you could try this too.

Okay, it is time for bed!
Goodnight and more soon......
