Wow! It is approaching 3 months since I went into quarantine and life has changed in many ways. I have to admit, I am now getting restless and just waiting for our vibrant city to open, but I do acknowledge that life will not be the same as precovid.
Watching the events in these last 10 days has made me realize that a new normal maybe is what the world needs. Unfortunately I realized that I myself need to really spend some time educating myself on the Black Lives Matter movement. Just saying I am not racist is not enough, and I am trying to reflect on my life and where I have been wrong and right in my internal thinking. I know one thing for sure and that is I am so grateful for all I have and I hope and pray that justice and equality prevails.
I wanted to share a quote by the great Martin Luther King Jr that has resonated with me, this past week.
“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.”- Martin Luther king Jr
As a health coach, I am always encouraging my clients to take small baby steps towards their goals as each step leads to the overall big goal.
Today, I encourage you all to think of one small thing you can do to help the make the world a better place, as it is the small contributions that carry this world forward!
On another note, I have become a fan of Yotam Ottolenghi and have ordered 3 of his books as all his recipes look simple and delicious and most importantly fresh and healthy. His desserts also look divine and I did make his blueberry almond coconut cake!! It was utterly delicious! It did have butter and sugar but almonds, coconut and blueberries were the stars! More to come when I try some recipes!
I want to end with positive and healing thoughts to all!
Support those around you, educate yourself, and feed your mind body and soul. ❤️
