Happy Earth Day

Get out your patchouli and incense burners..

Put on your hemp clothing, love beads and birkenstocks.

It's time to gather round, hold hands and sing songs about birds and love and stuff.

 Let's dance, smile, and thank Mother Nature for her bounty.

I kid.
Not totally, because I think all of those things would be really fun.  Wouldn't they?  Just for an afternoon, go to the park? play some music? You don't have to go all out with the patchouli and hemp clothes...but....
sigh.
There I go again, as usual.
Anyway, in all seriousness...

Earth Day.

It's been a little more prevelent in my life with each year.  I have been striving to live a cleaner, healthier, more fulfilling life resulting in me seeing things differently.   I see things at a cellular level and how, at a cellular level, my body is affected by certain things of my choosing.   I am also seeing global impact which influences my behavior also.  In between, there is a huge expansion that remains a little muddy to me.  But each day I am learning more, growing more, and experiencing more. 

My latest kick is http://www.rawfoodrehab.com/  I cannot get enough of this website.  It is a wealth of information on health and wellness.  The webpage is super enticing.  There is a slideshow right up front, with the most delectable eye candy, the most tantalizing photos EVER!  A feast for the eyes, I just want to lick my computer screen.  Holy Mother Nature.  The food is fresh, raw, bright and full of happy little enzymes waiting to dance around your body.  It is so delicious and so balancing to the body.

Balance is key for me.  As a yoga teacher I strive not only for balance physically, but in all aspects of life.   I am finding that along with my yoga, I am moving to a higher level, this new balance with the food I am choosing to eat.  This way of eating has brought me to a new understanding about not only my body and how to fuel it, but the world around me.  It is life changing.

Stop and think about what you eat.  Is it serving you?  Is it nourishing your body?  giving you energy?  restoring balance?  protecting you from injury?  protecting you from illness? making you happy?

I invite you to take a look at the Raw Food Rehab.  If you do, look me up.  I have a suite there. I'm loving all the new knowledge.   I hope you will too.
