Field Notes

I grew up in a household where meals were made from scratch with seasonal vegetables primarily grown in our own garden. It was a perfect foundation for a healthy lifestyle. Somehow, I lost my way. I've searched for the perfect solution, tried different fads, and yet I find myself where I started. How do reclaim my health? What do I need to do to feel vibrant and healthy all the time?  I often think I have the answer, but I don't always have the actions.

I eat a plant based diet and limit carbs to gluten free varieties.  I believe that meditation or prayer (or both) daily keeps you focused, peaceful, and calmer. I love coffee, but try to drink tea more frequently than coffee.  It isn't always easy. My activity level isn't always consistent, but I love walking.  I work long hours in a career I love and this often drives my choices of less activity, convenience foods, elusive sleep, and sleepy meditation. I'm trying to pull it all together and these are my field notes.
