OK – it was a busy summer and blogging somehow completely
fell off of my map. It’s now Fall and
time to reset and regroup.
Wasn’t sure what I wanted to write about – had a few ideas
jumping around in my brain and wasn’t sure what direction I wanted to
take. Then, yesterday, I’m looking through
some books I haven’t read in a long time, pull out “There’s a Spiritual Solution
to Every Problem” by Wayne Dyer, and open it at random to the following
passage:
“How do you treat this
body? What foods do you use to replenish and replace it with? Do you drink
pure, uncontaminated water on a regular basis throughout the day? What toxins
do you absorb? How much peaceful rest do you provide for it? Do you keep it
balanced with nutritional supplements? Do you exercise it regularly? Is your
breathing harmonious and unstrained? Is your emotional state calm? Do you meditate
to bring yourself into harmony with God? In short, are you a great friend to
your body?
Your body must be
loved; it is your home and must be cleansed of all junk. Your body is in your
service continually. Even while you sleep it works for you, digesting, removing
dead cells, bringing fresh oxygen, converting nutrients into blood. All for your survival.”
Who knew that flipping through a Wayne Dyer book would
provide some great material for a nutrition blog?? So my fellow adventurers, are you treating
your body with the respect, kindness and love it deserves? I’m consciously
working to treat mine better.
Now for some personal, non-nutrition related news – in the previous
post (way back in June, sheesh) we celebrated my son’s graduation from CSUF in
May (YAY!). In June, we celebrated my
daughter’s graduation from high school (another YAY!)
Here are my graduates in their stunning attire:
Have a fantastic day, and be good to yourself – you deserve
it!!
