What do you do to feel inspired? My clients often tell me they desire something SO MUCH, but they just can’t seem to find the motivation. I know exactly what they mean, and I also know the secret to changing it. I remember a few years ago, one of those (many) times I was living in …

Recently, my friend Jessica posted about the topic of Compliments, and it was a great reminder for me. It made me think back to times when people did things for me that were extra nice, or when they let me know I did a good job on something. It feels so nice to get compliments, …
Today I was reading a post from one of my favorite bloggers, Alison, over at Mama’s Weeds. She’s super smart and funny, and I just like how she thinks (plus she lives where I used to live…and I met her once at a Brendan Brazier presentation). I really liked what she talked about today because it …
The other day, when I realized it was Coconut Flour Flatbread‘s birthday, I had to make something with it to celebrate. I didn’t want to go to the store, so I fished around for some things and came up with these burgers. You know I am crazy about burgers, but I like sliders a lot …

I’ve got a good system going now–early morning client, go for a walk, cup of coffee, work… yoga, friends, etc. I …

I was thinking a lot about the idea of transformation today (well, actually, I’ve been thinking about it pretty steadily since 2003, almost always claiming to be in limbo in some way), and my Mom sent me a link to a Dear Sugar column that had an awesome description of transformation in it (I heart …

My Grandma has Alzheimer’s Disease, and it has gradually progressed over the last few years (and this has sped up quite a bit recently). She’s quite happy most of the time, or at least when things are simple and she can stay in her house (or go to church). She wears the same thing pretty …
I’ve been thinking quite a lot lately about perspectives on food, especially after the (semi) recent election, as I’m living in California: Home of (failed) Prop 37. Had I been able to prove my residence soon enough register to vote here, I would’ve surely voted for Prop 37 because I sincerely believe that all people …
I’ve been promising this for a while… sample days of what I eat. I know I’ve said it already, but my only real hesitation is that I don’t want people to just copy what I do. I came to this way of eating after approximately 5 (or more) years of experimentation. I fully support the …
