I Am Adventurous! I am excited about seeking out new challenges to open my worldview, shift my paradigm, shake and stir my status quo. With each new adventure, I learn something interesting about the world around me, and about myself. Photo credit: Michael Powell Photography

Healthy! Confident! Brave! Strong! Annnnd a I have this sweet, fat kitty who loves a freshly warmed-up lap! Bonus! Post-workout selfie with no makeup, a sweet sweaty glow, lumps bumps and curves doing what they do as I keep working hard towards my better-health goals. I’ve released 30 inches overall and a few pounds of fat that were causing me pain, through loving myself and gently moving my body. To be clear: Healthy Comes In All Shapes And Sizes.

Here’s a tasty and simple salad that’s light and quick. Just the ticket to keep you on track after a holiday feast. The dark leaf lettuce and lean turkey are pleasantly filling without the painful bloat and food coma. Dressed simply with hemp seed oil and freshly ground Kampot pepper for nutty, earthy flavor balance. So good! Romaine lettuce Shredded chunks of turkey breast About a tbsp of cold pressed organic hemp seed oil (I like the one from Nutiva) Freshly ground Kampot pepper I like to get my pepper from my pals Cris and Tom at Pepper Project, because…

Monday Mantra: I Am Healthy & I Am Whole! Pictured here is an incredibly lovely little girl named Caro (Carol). I met her years ago on my first visit to Kenya, when I was doing humanitarian work with Tumaini International. I will be sharing more about her in my next blog post this Wednesday, but for now- I wanted to share her smile and her strength with you. She’s such an inspiring person to be around! <3

In a world where far too often there is tremendous pain, brutality, and the ugliness of senseless violence- it is ever more important to look for and find Beauty in our daily lives. Just as Light overcomes Darkness, so does True Beauty overcome Ugliness. See Beauty, Be Beauty.

Mantra: I like to eat, so I choose nourishing meals that satisfy me! Here’s a tasty little something I whipped up in the kitchen that makes a nice light meal or a hearty side dish: Brussels Sprouts & Bacon. It was filling, sweet, crunchy, savory, easy-peasy and super satisfying. I don’t really measure stuff, I just kind of play with it- so the measurements are more guesstimate than fact. I also don’t actually count calories, but if you’re into that then this is pretty low-cal. You can always substitute margarine for the butter and leave out the bacon, if that…
