		<title>Change</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems like forever since I have posted.   The roller coaster called life has brought many changes over the summer.  Children turning 18 and moving on with life, new businesses, little ones learning to read and write, new friends emerging and old friends moving on. Some of us spread our wings and soar when change falls in our lap.  Others shrivel at the notion and want to curl up in a ball and die.  I have spoke about my 7yr old in the [...]]]></description>

We use patterns to help us move through everyday life, to cope through tough times and reduce stress. Our patterns can be helpful and healthy or harmful and unhealthy.

		<title>Get your grill on!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Barbecue, bbq, grilling&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.. those words go so sweetly with all things summer and outdoors.  But wait!  Summer is coming to a close this weekend &#8211; which could only mean one thing &#8230;. one last opportunity to grill up something delicious with family and friends.

		<title>The Great Depression</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Depression. It seems to hit all of us at some time or another. I had a bout with it myself 6 years ago, which I got through thanks to a terrific holistic doctor and some major life changes. Since then there have been  several &#8220;rough spots&#8221; where  I have lost my usual ability to manage the constant stresses and challenges of life, and most of the time my pattern has been to struggle as best I could through the daily [...]]]></description>

		<title>Recovering from Injuries</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Scar tissue is stronger than regular tissue. Realize the strength, move on.&#8221; – Henry Rollins August 28th. When I got the email with the date for my guest post, it didn’t even click. A week ago, I started thinking about what I was going to write and…duh! August 28th. Today is the one year anniversary of my hamstring tear. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what pushed me to go Paleo. It was pure desperation, but I haven’t looked back. Ironically, I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cave to the Crave?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cravings We all get them.  For whatever reason, we get a craving.  We start thinking about a nice juicy steak, made just the way we like.  It makes our mouths water.  Literally.  We plan that into one of our upcoming meals and when we dig in, it is oh-so-satisfying.   Mmmm-hmm. But what if the craving you have isn&#8217;t for steak but for ding-dongs?  Or a brownie?  Then what? Do you fight the cravings?  Suppress them?  Indulge in them full force [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beer.  The last surrender.  And I love it.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent eight years clean and sober.  That means eight years without touching a drop of alcohol.  Five years ago, after a long period of careful consideration, I decided to drink again.  While I am not in ANY way suggesting that a sober person attempt this**, taking that sip of beer did not lead me down a path of destruction.  Quite the contrary, I found that where before I lacked a natural mechanism that called STOP!, my body now clearly [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Dish on Sugar and Sweeteners</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I get a TON of questions about sugar and sweeteners. Most people just want to know which are okay to eat and which are bad. But, of course, I can't just say "eat this, not that" without some kind of explanation behind it. I could probably write about 10 posts on this topic, but for now I'm going to boil it down to a few key points.

1. ALL sweeteners, caloric or non-caloric, can contribute to weight-gain or prohibit weight loss.
2. Sweeteners that come from nature are always better to consume than those that come from a lab or factory.
3. Regardless of the source, it's ALWAYS best to minimize your exposure to sweeteners.]]></description>

		<title>A wee bit on F A T</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t profess to have any sciencey background or specialization, but as a life- long dieter (NO MORE!), I&#8217;d like to think I know a bit about it.  Having spent most of the 90&#8242;s avoiding fat of any sort, it was hard for me to wrap my head around the notion of actual *GASP* eating fat&#8230;.. ON PURPOSE!!  Remember the days of fat-free cookies and chips?  Seemed too good to be true &#8211; still garbage made with garbage!!!  It seemed like blasphemy [...]]]></description>

		<title>Let&#8217;s do Lunch!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Back to School time for many kids, and time to tackle the &#8220;what will the kids eat for lunch&#8221; question again.  Both of my youngest children now have two options for their lunches &#8211; either taking a packed lunch from home, or purchasing  lunch from a lunch truck or similar vendor at the school. Neither of their schools has a cafeteria, so buying or bringing along are the only options! Buying from a vendor Buying lunch every day isn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>
