Elson M. Haas wrote the book Staying Healthy with Nutrition which I used as a text book at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition (CSNN). I recently was re-visiting his book and came across a great quote which I decided fit with my life.
"When we shift our attitudes, we can change our entire lives" -Elson M. Haas
This quote got me thinking about staying positive. I am the kind of person who lets every little thing bother me. I worry and get stressed over the little things. So for the past week I have been focusing on the positive and really working on not letting little things get me down. I've been smiling more and enjoying the things that come my way. Being positive has made working out more enjoyable (instead of a chore I now think of running as "me" time), and I have been enjoying my meals more. Instead of "making" meals I am "creating" meals. The smallest change in thinking can result in a huge alteration in life.
Another quote I found really encompasses part of what Bundles of Energy is about.
“Food that's beautiful to look at seems to taste better than food that isn't.” -Emeril Lagasse
I love brightly coloured foods. I love "creating" a soup with all different types and colours of vegetables and beans. I buy green and yellow and red bell peppers from the grocery store. Who wants just a green salad when you can have a green and yellow and red salad?! I even add frozen blueberries to pancake mixes for not just the taste, but the look!
And really, who wants to eat something that looks bland?
I know that is what Bundles of Energy is about.....helping people create healthy, beautiful meals we can be proud of!
