Ayurveda is complicated, there's no doubt about it. You need a guide. You also need a guide on how to navigate Ayurveda in the modern world, since it was developed in Ancient India, and most of us don't even live in modern India. Ali Cramer does a wonderful job demystifying Ayurveda so that it's livable … Continue reading Modern Ayurveda (Book Review)

Eat Live Thrive Diet (Book Review)
I know that when I first started to run, I overate for the amount of calories I was actually burning -- not intentionally, but it's easy to do. Eventually I figured out how to train and not gain weight (for the most part). I've noticed, though, that I can no longer eat as much running … Continue reading Eat Live Thrive Diet (Book Review)
Change your morning, change your life
What is the first thing you do in the morning? I'll bet for many the answer will be check their phone: email, facebook, instagram, etc. Maybe before you even got out of bed. Now think about this, and be honest with yourself: do you feel energized to tackle your day after that? Does it make … Continue reading Change your morning, change your life
Let Your Mind Run (Book Review)

Learn more about Deena at her Website here. I absolutely loved this book. Most of my sole sisters did, too, although one person … Continue reading Let Your Mind Run (Book Review)

All the miles . . .
. . . all the food Oh, how I wish that was true: that I could just eat whatever I wanted to because I run. I found out quickly, training for my first half marathon, that that is just not the case. Nor for me, anyway. But I do love the fact that I do … Continue reading All the miles . . .

It Was Me All Along (book review)
A weight loss journey "It Was Me All Along" (affiliate link) really spoke to me. It fit perfectly into my weight loss/management theme this past week (see my vlog and my post about why weight loss isn't punishment if you missed it). So many similarities between myself and the author, Andie Mitchell: Love of food Bingeing … Continue reading It Was Me All Along (book review)
Fast Girl: Running from Madness (book review)
Reading Wendy's book review of "Fast Girl" by Suzy Favor Hamilton reminded me that it was a book I was interested in, too. My library had it, it was available quickly, and I read it in three days. It's been a while since I read a book so quickly -- her ghost writer did a … Continue reading Fast Girl: Running from Madness (book review)
