BNV Updates
Well hello there, it has been a while hasn’t it? Hope you all are doing well and yes, I have missed all of you.
So what’ been happening. Let’s see….
Health-wise both me and my wife are doing fine.
Although I did get in touch with a buddy I used to work with, and he has not had such luck as he almost died and is now on weekly dialysis. Another friend I worked with DID die, as well as another friend’s husband. Sadly, all these people are (were) much younger than I am 😢. It just reinforces my belief that this lifestyle we are all part of really IS the healthiest one of all.
And I honestly think it goes way beyond the food too.
In my support group we often read books together and Dr. Dean Ornish’s UNDO IT was one that really resonated with me. He teaches that there are FOUR pillars of health.
Eat well
Move more
Stress less
Love more
So exercise is just as important as what we eat, AND managing our stress as well. Particularly NOW in this chaotic world we find ourselves in.
And the “love more” pillar? That’s all about building those healthy, loving relationships. It’s about surrounding yourselves with like-minded people that will support you, no matter what. That is what I try to provide in my support group with daily live-streaming and monthly zoom meetings.
Currently we are reading ATOMIC HABITS by James Clear to try and find easy ways to make those 4 pillars habitual. It truly is about changing your entire lifestyle!
Anyway, I have been spending a lot of time there, and of course any of you are welcome to join us. There is a slight cost, but that it only to cover my cost of hosting the group. I’ll leave a link here….
Other than that, I am working on a project with a local friend and naturopathic doctor that I think will be helpful to a lot of people. And I am also writing a new ebook full of delicious MEXICAN recipes.
AND ….. I just returned to YouTube yesterday.
My intention is to provide a new video every WEEK to help BRAND NEW folks to this way of eating, especially those of us over 40. I’ll attach the video here and if you like it, please hit the like button and leave me a comment. If really helps me out and oh, don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE and ring the notification bell so you don’t miss any of my upcoming videos.
Before I go I just want to mention I had 3 more boxes of my cookbooks delivered before Christmas…. so there’s plenty if you haven’t got a copy yet.
Chat more soon!
