Is Paleo a cult? (guest post)

by

I’ve heard paleo called a cult before. I get it. People who choose to eat paleo can be overzealous in sharing about it. Many preach it as the be all end all way for everyone to eat. Some come across a little elitist, some judgmental, and others if-you-don’t-eat-perfect-paleo-you’re-not-paleo-enough-ish. There is no lack of passion among the paleo community. Yes, some go a little ... Continue Reading

Navigating depression (guest post).

by

Ever since my experience with allergies and depression my perspective has shifted.  I *thought* I grasped depression.  I *hoped* I was supportive and helpful to friends when they suffered.  I learned I pretty much had no clue.  Please to welcome my friend, Denise.  Her beautiful, haunting words are the perfect reminder how there's so much more to HEALTH than just the physical.   Sometimes ...

  First let me just say that I met Carla in person at a recent Fitness Magazine event in New York City; and saying that her passion and energy are remarkable would be an understatement. I blog over at www.Kodjoworkout.com, and similar to Carla, one of my passions is to spread as much knowledge as possible, on health and fitness issues, including healthy eating. So that brings us to the topic ... Continue Reading

A practice of patience in the process of change (guest post).

by

A few weeks ago, our favorite MizFit posted over on the Facebook asking what we were choosing for ourselves that day to be *ready* for the week ahead.   I had an immediate answer to Carla's question: "I'm choosing to be kind to myself. To believe I AM stronger than I think I am. To be present, be open & not rush the process of change."   My last statement was most ...

Please welcome Jody! It has taken me ages---but Ive finally dragged her over to my neck of the 'net...

Even if a person loses 10 pounds, that is something to be celebrated – ... Continue Reading

Running for the “Non-Runners” (guest post).

by

I am not a natural runner. Running isn’t easy for me. I don’t put on my running shoes and go out for a run expecting the experience to be easy breezy. No matter what my running pace – whether I’m running a race and giving it my all, or telling myself to take it easy on a long run – running is hard work! Throughout college, I worked out regularly, but was never a runner. When I ... Continue Reading
