Healthy eating is achieved by adding a variety of nutritious foods to your daily diet. It is important to choose a variety of foods from each of the 5 major food groups to provide the body with a range of different nutrients needed, promote good health, and reduce the risk of disease. As a bonus choosing a variety helps make your meals interesting and less boring!

The 5 food groups are: (1) vegetables, legumes or beans, (2) fruit, (3) lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, nuts and seeds, legumes or beans, (4) grains (mostly whole grain or high fiber varieties of cereals), (5) milk, yogurt, cheese or alternatives

The occasional “junk” food is not discouraged! Life would certainly be dull without the occasional potato chip, bowl of ice cream, or slice of cake! A key thing to remember – do not deprive yourself of these indulgences otherwise you are sabotaging your goal of eating healthy. The key to our indulgences is moderation.

It does not matter where you begin or with which food group you begin. What matters is that you begin!

The most asked question someone new to yoga asks is, "what do I need?" In my opinion all you really need is a smile and a willingness to try!

The most common items needed are:

Mat: Inexpensive yoga mats can be purchased at WalMart, Target, TJMaxx, etc. If you prefer not to invest in a mat early on in your practice, use a beach towel! You want something to deter you from slipping during your practice. A towel placed over carpet is ideal.

Blocks: These are fantastic for adding support, bringing the floor closer to your hangs/fingertips, or assisting with balance! Hard cover books make great substitutes for blocks. Avoid paperbacks, however, as they are too soft and could collapse in the middle of your pose. When choosing blocks, make sure they are the same size otherwise your balance can be toppled.

Strap: Use a bathrobe sash or scarf or tie. The strap assists the arms in reaching the toes when needed or desired.

Choose one day each week and declare that day to be your Sabbath. On this day you schedule nothing that has to be accomplished. You do only those activities you want. Let your spontaneity shine on your Sabbath. You can do this!
