When things get crazy in my life it’s easy to forget to eat at all, let alone to eat well. And because I normally put a lot of time into preparing healthy, delicious meals for my family, when I don’t have a lot of time it is SUCH a temptation to just grab “whatever” – and that might be a pre-made veggie burger, or rice cakes and almond butter, or bready things that help to fill me up without a lot of effort. This week I’m having such a week. I am organizing a big event here in my hometown on Friday – it’s Family Literacy Day, and in my  “other life” I am the local Literacy Outreach Coordinator. So I’m up to my eyeballs in details at the moment. But I’ve been doing pretty well this week of being mindful of what I’m eating, and I’ve been feeling grateful for this mindfulness because it’s helping me keep up my energy, and also the balance I need to stay calm and organized in the midst of stress and chaos.

There was a great image I saw on Facebook recently – a road sign that said “Fruit is Fast Food” – and it keeps coming to my mind this week. So when you’re busy and getting buried by your obligations, remember:

1) Take a few minutes to eat well – it will pay you back by keeping up your energy in this busy time.

2) Eating well doesn’t have to mean eating fancy – eat raw fruits and veggies, hummus and salads – easy wraps. Smoothies!

3) If you can find a little time for meditating and/or exercise – even a few minutes a day – again, time well worth spent, that will come back to you tenfold.

About a year ago, I decided enough was enough. I had a tiny rash on my right thumb for years and it itched like crazy—I couldn’t take it anymore. My doctor recommended an anti-itch cream, but I didn’t want to fight the symptoms, I wanted it to disappear—for good.

I took it upon myself to start researching possible sources. After scouring many books, articles, and websites, I made the decision to start eliminating foods.
