The Dark Side of Medication

I blogged over here today:

I'm directing you there because I think it's an important topic. And because I think that we can all learn from eachother's experiences.

Wish I could say "April Fool's" on this topic, but I can't.

In good health,
janeen.

Luscious-ness

Health and vitality are luscious. Feeling good is luscious. Life is luscious.

Here is where I write about wellness:

http://luscious-ness.blogspot.com/

Once, I weighed in at over 200 pounds. I existed on fast food. I detested the idea of exercise. I lacked motivation. My weight held me back in every aspect of life.

Twenty years later, I'm a brand new person. I like to think of myself as a resource for fitness. I advocate for foods that heal. I love to see change. To me, a perfect body is a healthy body.

On this blog, you'll find recipes (I love to cook) and information on new supplements and exercise trends. I've also chronicled my own health struggles with endocrine issues and I have shared the dietary program that I currently follow (no sugar, no grains).

I like to share information. I'm not an expert. I miss frozen yogurt, mochas and pancakes. But I love feeling good more than I love a good bowl of pasta.

I'm going to be 40 this year. I always thought a tattoo would be a great way to commemorate this milestone age, but now I'm not so sure.

My clients and students tell me that teaching is my calling. I think that I might do many, many things in my life. Any of them could be my calling. I can tell you exactly what I'll be doing tomorrow. Next week might be completely different. I kind of hope that it is.

Life is full of suffering and sadness. I often wonder how we do it; how we make our way, despite the ever-constant challenges of sheer existence. The silver lining often isn't radiant enough to see.

Sometimes, I have to slow down and breathe. I like to create experiences for my yoga students; experiences that temporarily take them from the rigidity of real life. A great playlist helps.

Having a child expanded my heart. Motherhood redefined my identity. My idea of gratitude was forever changed. A career will always take a backseat to time with my child.

I wish that good health was more of a priority in our society. I'd like it if mothers took more time for themselves. I hope that I can touch the lives of the people around me in a way that makes a profound difference.
