What I Ate for St. Patrick’s Day!

St. Patrick’s Day brings out the Irish in all of us and I am no exception. For this “What I ate in a day” I’m giving my food a green festive theme. Normally I’d love to eat Bangers and Mash, or a nice slab of Corned Beef, but I’m trying to be good and eat healthy. I traded the heavy holiday foods in for lighter, green and gold colors that were still packed full of flavor and didn’t leave me feeling deprived.

How Meditation has Changed My Life

That’s what this post is all about. As a skeptic, I wasn’t sure how meditation could help me with my problems. It seemed too simple, but now I meditate most days first thing in the morning. I hope to explain what my experience has been and how it’s changed my life for the better.

It’s National Family Caregiver Month

This is National Family Caregiver Month! I learned very quickly about caregiving as a child. I was the oldest of three children, and I was often responsible for them. I was also homeschooled and often had to help my mother with her home daycare business. I was raised to not really think much of myself (which is not healthy, by the way), but for me, caregiving was just something I was made to do. However, as I got older and my mother became sick, I really learned how special and difficult it is to be a caregiver. In this post, I would like to share some tips and resources I wish someone had given me when I took care of my mother. If you are a caregiver, I hope this helps and gives you the allowance to take care of yourself.
