Eat Good Fat, Get Fit
Eat Good Fat, GetĀ Fit
Iāve been reading quite a few books helping me in my quest to find a perfect Eating Green model. So far, Iām finding that a little more difficult than I anticipated. My research and experience is showing there is no āperfect modelā, but taking a little from each program and expert I discover. (moreā¦)

If someone were to ask me for my number one recommendation for eating healthy and having the largest positive impact on the planet, I would deeply consider telling them about Meal Prepping. (moreā¦)

The Other Side of Meal Prep: Meal Planning
The Other Side of Meal Prep: MealĀ Planning
This week Iāve been very focused on ways to improve my willpower when it comes to eating right. For instance, my writing group meets at a restaurant with very few healthy options. I donāt like to complain too much, because the restaurant lets us meet for up to 5 hours, every week, and they donāt charge us, and they donāt make us purchase food from them either. Itās a nice quiet area withā¦

Meal Prep Saves Lives.
Well, it saves forests. And saving forests saves lives- animals who live and depend on forests, and even us mighty humans. Without trees, we would literally not be able to breathe, so trees and the forests are kind of a big deal. (moreā¦)

ZooFat to ZooFit
I felt I had a lot in common with Drew Manning. Well, I wasnāt a personal trainer who couldnāt figure out why my clients didnāt get it. But I was a zookeeper who couldnāt figure out why it was so hard to convey conservation messages to zoo visitors. (moreā¦)

Kayaking: An Experiment in Conservation Fitness
Kayaking: An Experiment in ConservationĀ Fitness
This past weekend was very much a Conservation Fitness weekend. Bowling for Rhinos on Saturday. Sloth Army on Sunday morning. Then to round it out, Chris and I tried out kayaking in the afternoon.
Weāve tried kayaking before. Weāve done kayaking on Whidbey Island before. It was years ago, and we were considering getting kayaks to go on adventures around Washington. So we decided to rent a coupleā¦

May the 4th be with you.
Today is a fun day for movie fans, geeky fandom enthusiasts, and appreciators of puns. In the fandom world of nerdy movie lovers, today is Star Wars Day. Because, you know, May the 4th is a pun sounding like āMay the Force (be with you)ā. (moreā¦)

30 Days of ZooFit: Day 30- CreativityĀ 101
If anyone were to ask me what is the best website for learning and growing our mind, body, and yes, even our soul, I would recommend Brian Johnsonās Optimize. He discusses everything to live the best version of yourself, from health and fitness to meditation to being your most creative self. I have learned a lot from his Philosopherās Notes and his Master Classes. Most of what he teaches is inā¦

30 Days of ZooFit: Day 29-The SummerĀ Job
Working on my books has been a great experience. I set my own hours, which is great in theory, but in practice I need improvement. Iāve gotten lazier and lazier about waking up, getting started, and staying motivated. My writing has gotten a little better, and Iāve really developed ZooFit, but I am feeling a little bored with depression creeping up in the background.Ā (moreā¦)

30 Days of ZooFit: Day 28- Laughter, the BestĀ Medicine
Okay, Iām not gonna lie, Iām cheating with my post today. Not that I didnāt do anything ZooFit related, because I did- worked on homemade BOSU design and cooked a great Whole30 meal with zucchini (preparing for zucchini season with tried and tested recipes). But thatās not what I really want to write about.Ā (moreā¦)

30 Days of ZooFit: Day 27- Least ReinforcingĀ Scenario
Today I presented a class on Creativity for my writing group. While listening to the section on dealing with ātrollsā, I was reminded of a powerful lesson I learned as a zookeeper in dealing with setbacks. To be truly successful and to maintain a positive mindset, you must deal with setbacks and mistakes with only a positive approach. In animal training, we typically use the Least Reinforcingā¦

Over the weekend, while in Las Vegas, I did something to my neck. Slept on it wrong, didnāt gamble enough, whiplash from spending so much on booze and books at the auction. Who knows?
What I do know are two things. One, it hurts to jostle my neck around. Two, I still can do a workout. (moreā¦)

I tote a lot of advice and promotion to physical health and well-being, but rarely touch on the topic of mental health. Perhaps because I think of myself as a little mentally unstable, I donāt think Iām qualified to share on the subject. But fear not, while I remain mostly crazy, I do have thoughts on getting mentally fit as well as physically. And yes, it revolves around having fun and savingā¦

There are few exciting holidays for zookeepers. Christmas and Thanksgiving are often spent with our fur/feather/scaled families because, guess what? Animals have to eat. Daily. Itās weird, I know. But such is life of a zookeeper.
Know what holidays zookeepers DO get excited over? April 22. Earth Day. Itās not exactly celebrated by everyone, but it is an important day for zookeepers. Earth Day isā¦
