Empowering our kids to make friends with all kinds of food, but especially veg as they are like best friends for our body, mind and planet is super important. However, if your don't feel good about feeding your family, then it will have a massive impact on how you all feel and eat.
With this said, I just wanted to share a quote from James Clear, author of Atomic Habits. Brilliant book.
🔥"I have learned that whenever I think "I don't have enough time to do that" what I usually mean is "I don't have enough energy" or "I am not actually interested in doing this."
What I need to do a better job of is not managing my time, but rather caring for myself and identifying my true interests. When I am well rested and working on something I am genuinely excited about, finding time is rarely a problem."🔥
I want to encourage you to think about.
❓What can you do to take better care of yourself?
I've taken up painting and surfing again. I'm not great at either but I feel like I am doing things just for my own joy again.
❓What can you do about the 'feeling behind the doing' of feeding your family?
My go to is music when I'm cooking. If I am in a real funk, I put on Katrina and the Waves - Walking on Sunshine (click the link, play it and you're welcome).
Which one of these meme's do you relate to? Hit reply and let me know.
I'm a bit in the top camp. I can't believe it's time to turn our attention to back to school already. I'm taking Ril shopping for his uniform and school stationery next week, and still trying to resolve how I now only have 1 school aged child.
