- Drink green tea. I can do this. My goal is one cup/day.
- Start Reading Labels Lots of our food has chemicals, GMO's, etc. Be mindful, read labels. Educate yourself. My family has been living WHOLE for 5 years now. We are not 100%, but we are conscious and aware every day.
- Forgive Someone "studies show that forgiveness can lower blood pressure and heart rate and reduce depression, anxiety, and anger." I'll buy that.
- Have More Sex Okay!
- Join a CSA What better way to each more vegetables then having them delivered every week. If you don't have room or time for a garden, help you local farmer.
- 20 Minutes of exercise or more at least 4x a week.
- Get More Sleep Following Gwyneth on Dr. Oz I am going to try Magnesium. Let's see.
- Meditate My family is looking at Buddhism again. I dable on and off.
- Portion Size Be mindful about the portion on your plate. I could totally be better about this one. We bought smaller dinner plates!
- Pack a Smarter Lunch For me this means, thinking ahead. This is where I am horrible! Need to be way better!
- Call an Old Friend Talking to old friends makes me so happy! The relationships from my past are some of my strongest.
- Floss! Enough said. I have a bag on my desk at work. Right in front of me!
- Practice Saying No This is hard. I had to do it a lot when I first came home with my son. I had to do it for me. If people get mad at you...they weren't really close to you. Your close friends will always respect.
- Stretch Dogs stretch every time they get up! I am bad but will try and be more mindful.
- Keep Healthy Snacks on Hand I should do much better then I am. It takes planning and thinking.
I am a wife, locavore, foodie, fitness junkie, gardener, cook and mother of a beautiful son! I am passionate for just about everything. Follow me and my family on our daily journey. I hope to inspire, teach, inform and maybe make you laugh.

I have been using a magnesium powder, Natural Calm, and it works wonders. I recover faster from my workouts, sleep better and my mind less busy. Great stuff!
