🌲 Your body was built for the forest.
Did you know that phytoncides—the natural aromatic compounds released by trees—have been shown in studies to lower cortisol, calm the nervous system, and support healthier blood sugar regulation?

This is why forest bathing (simply walking slowly through nature with intentional awareness) is such a powerful, evidence-based tool for stress and metabolic health.

As we head into Thanksgiving weekend, I want to invite you into something simple and restorative:
If you’re willing to commit to one nature walk this weekend, drop a 🌳 in the comments.

Your mind, your cortisol levels, and your blood sugar will thank you.

Wishing you a peaceful, grounded, gratitude-filled Thanksgiving. 🤍

1 Thing:
Preparation Proceeds Precise Ex*****on.

By the way... at the time of posting this I have finished this race. I got 1st place overall!
I prepared precisely. I knew every obstacle, every turn, and my body. I beat a runner that used to be a collegiate cross country runner and had taken 1st place the previous year. Preparation works! Get it!

🍞 Have you heard of the 10:1 rule?
Use it to identify a better whole grain bread.

Just remember:
Carbohydrates should be less than: fiber x 10.

Or you could think of t this way:
1. Find the fiber grams
2. Multiply fiber by 10
3. Carbohydrate grams should be less than that.

Thank you Harvard School of Public Health !
