Inspiration Can Come From Anywhere…

I have learned many lessons throughout my life but some of the best lessons I learned when it comes to rest and recovery came from living with rabbits.

Lesson # 1: Playtime Is Essential
Lesson # 2: Naps Are Awesome - Rest When You Need to
Lesson # 3: Quality Food Is Important
Lesson # 4: Feel Your Feelings
Lesson # 5: The House Cleaning Can Wait

What’s one lesson you have learned that has served you well as you seek to live a life of energy and vitality?

Please share in the comments!

The world can be a harsh place, and many people feel daily stress and pressure. Lives are full of busyness and commitments, and it is easy to be short or seem uncaring toward others. However, wholesale kindnessfollow benefits the health of both the giver and receiver, and it’s so easy to give.

Kindness is free and easy to give with these ways to spread kindness. Consider walking in kindness every day.

𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐖𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐚 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫

As the holiday season winds down, I can't help but reflect on how it often leaves us with a mix of joy and exhaustion. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐮𝐞. It's like we've been running a marathon and now we're finally crossing the finish line, feeling a little worn out but hopeful.

I know many of us feel that pang of guilt too – for the things we didn't accomplish, for the moments we couldn't fully enjoy because our energy just wasn't there. It's a story that's all too familiar: wanting to do more, be more, but feeling held back by our own bodies and minds.

But here's the silver lining – a new year means a fresh start, a blank page. And this coming year, I'm inviting you to turn that page with me. Imagine stepping into 2024 not with the weight of what wasn’t but with a renewed sense of energy and purpose.

I've been putting together something special, a little secret project aimed at rewriting our energy story. It's about more than just combating fatigue; it’s about embracing each day with a vitality that makes every moment count.

𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐞'𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫. 𝐋𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐰𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 to the FULLEST.

Truly, there doesn’t need to be a special occasion to give to ourselves, yet we so often feel undeserving, choosing to treat someone else instead. I know it’s not just me who does this!

Treat yourself ideas so often come across as generic. I usually see things like take a bath, go for a walk, buy yourself dinner out. While I do, personally, enjoy these things, not everyone else does. If you don't enjoy these activities they won't feel like treats!

I put together a recipe for vegan blueberry danishes since they’re easy to make, pack, and eat during summer adventures. But, as an added bonus, blueberries freeze really well – which means you can make this recipe any time of the year!

If you’re growing herbs in a container–either on your windowsill or on your balcony or patio–you’ll want to make sure that the herbs you select all work well together since they will be in close proximity to one another. So, how do you know the best herbs to grow together? Generally, herbs that like the same environment can be planted together in the same container.

Sometimes being disloyal can be a good thing

The other day a frugal blogger friend of mine asked the question: “How many stores do you shop at for food?” I had to think about it for a second, before I answered “eight” — which is actually on the low side for me. I shop around when it comes to food. How about you?

Finding a good health insurance policy may seem like a daunting challenge, but it doesn't have to be overwhelming. Every policy features coverage with a premium and deductible, so if you use these three criteria to compare health insurance plans, you can quickly see which ones stand out. The best health insurance policies meet all three of these criteria so they can set your mind at ease about paying for the medical care you need to stay healthy both physically and mentally.
