Despite being insanely busy lately, I've been feeling energized and just generally great... I think I may owe it to my recently-adopted (mostly) plant-based nutrition. It's actually easier to stick to than one might think. One super easy way is to make hearty soups! I am currently halfway through a vegan white bean & garlic concoction ...

This spoke to me today - such a truth. The examples I could give from experiences in my life - oof - suffice to say, I am convinced our thoughts hold great power over our lives and I would not be running today had I not realized this ☺️

I am a supporter of the #sweateveryday mantra. The laundry aftermath? Not so much...

Don't be afraid to feed the fire in your soul // 🎶 Wolf Like Me - TV On The Radio (one of my favorites for a tempo run)

How Halloween is this run?! The trail I was on just happened to go alongside this burial site, which had graves dating all the way back to the 1600's. Interestingly, stumbling upon this was pretty appropriate; I've been reading a lot about the soul the past couple weeks. In the midst of all my reading, coincidentally, I was invited last minute to hear Dr. Brian Weiss speak (google him and you'll understand the relevancy). A few days later, a family member passed away, only causing my meditation on the subject to delve deeper. The day of the wake, here I was, feeling my most-alive while among the lifeless. Sometimes I feel like life is just yelling at me to live, learn and grow. ✨

When you love someone, the best thing you can offer is your presence. How can you love if you are not there?...To be loved means to be recognized as existing. - Thich Nhat Hanh // Savored the tea as well as good conversation, minus the cell phones. So important to truly connect with one another and yet it is so easy to forget to do so. We are used to quick text conversations and emails; however, nothing can replace feeling the air in a room vibrate with laughter. #runzenrun #latergram #mindful #recharge #relaxation #meditation #taiwan #tea #teaceremony #mycupoftea #goodvibes #goodness #lovinglife #openmind #gratefulheart #zen #happyplace

Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question when you are the answer. - J.
