Breathe in...breathe out... . . In moments of extr

Breathe in...breathe out...
.
.
In moments of extreme stress, the body and mind suffer greatly, making us more susceptible to infection, inflammation, depression and anxiety. .
.
The one tool I find helpful in times of intense stress is the one we all have available to us at all times. Breath. Something we may take for granted when we're well. .
.
Breath sustains life, sure, but breath can also settle our nervous system, bring us into the present moment and help us cope with our emotions. .
.
Breath also has a direct impact on our heart rate, digestion and every other system in the body. .
.
So if anyone needs this right now, close your eyes wherever you are and take 10 slow breaths counting to 4 when inhaling and 6 when exhaling. That's it. Repeat as needed. .
.
Sending love to you all!

"The whole universe is contained within a single human being – you" - Rumi

This is a wonderful reminder that we all matter - and no life is more or less important than another. .

Ever since we've had to move into an era of #socia

Ever since we've had to move into an era of #socialdistancing and adopt a new way of living, the internet has offered a lot of suggestions. .
.
There seems to be a push to be awesome while staying at home, cook pantry meals, clean your house, enjoy time with your kids, create art, get in shape and do all these fun, amazing things indoors. And I’m responsible for this too (clearly I create things online).
.
But the truth is many of us are left scrambling with our feelings. We feel stuck, incapable of making sense of this new way of living. We miss our friends, our families, the lives we have created. Many don't feel like doing anything close to creating and are simply feeling stuck. .
.
I just wanted to say to those (and me) who feel pressured to create and make, it's okay to not do anything right now. It's okay to mourn the things we no longer have, it's okay to be silent, it's okay to rest, it's okay to just be. Despite the internet’s best intentions to help us cope, it is okay not to have things figured out and it’s okay to just be however you are wherever you are. .
.
And if everything gets too loud, step away, take a break. You can rewrite your own history however you wish. .

How are you keeping yourself "well" right now? I'd love to hear any tips or ideas that may inspire others!
.
.
Perhaps the arrival of spring is one of the only things keeping me in some sort of equilibrium these days. .
.
Between bouts of anxiety and disbelief at the dire situation all around us, I'm finding hope in birdsong, daffodils and shoots of green popping up. .
.
I'm also finding hope in this strange alone yet togetherness we are all experiencing. Because each one of us is struggling to make sense of this new reality.
.
.
So for a little diversion and to honor the first day of spring, here is a little green brightness in a bowl. May it distract you for even a second and bring you some relief. .
.
And if you feel like joining me in a little spring brightness, share your recipes, or anything that brings you a little hope with the hashtag #stepintogreen. And click on the hashtag to check out inspiring posts from my friends collaborating and show them some love.

I’ve been struggling to focus lately. Anyone else? There is a lot of uncertainty and much out of our control. .
.
The news is grim and my need to compulsively check it, not helpful for an anxious mind. .
.
So here is a bit of a distraction. An easy vegan beet hummus on Paleo pizza crust, topped with crispy chickpeas.
.
.
How are you keeping your mind occupied?

What we need now more than ever is a voice or reas

What we need now more than ever is a voice or reason and collaboration. Instead of panicking about the adjustments we have to make, we should embrace the fact that we collectively are doing something as a global population and facing something that's taking down rich, poor, public figures and the unknown. .
.
We can all do our part. So don't take too much toilet paper, don't take too much food or water. .
.
If we can think about others and show humility and a sense of respect for everyone's well being, we can get through this. We can together (or 6 feet apart), get through this. Perhaps life as we know it will never return to normal, but so it is. We've adapted for a long time, we can do it again. Stay well my friends! . .
