I was recently introduced to the surprisingly timeless poetry of Kabir. I’ve been thinking about all my teachers lately, and the many forms they take…

I Had To Seek The Physician

I had to seek the physician
because of the pain this world
caused
me.

I could not believe what happened when I got there —
I found my
Teacher.

Before I left, he said,
“Up for a little homework, yet?”

“Okay.” I replied.

“Well then, try thanking all the people
who have caused
you pain.

They helped you
come to
me.”

Last night my friend told me this dock used to be dead straight yet here it is, surviving and soon to be thriving, despite all the storms and shifting sands 🤍

Did you know that walking in the forest improves cardiovascular function, heart rate variability, neuroendocrine and metabolic indexes, benefits immunity and inflammatory processes, increases antioxidants and more? This all enhances one’s emotional state, attitude, and general feelings of well-being, and physical and psychological recovery, and helps allieviate anxiety and depression. Plus it’s just so pretty. It’s free and accessible here in Bellingham, so get out there!

Peri-menopausal women: Are you getting enough protein? Probably not. The range you should be shooting for is 2-2.4g/kg of body weight. That’s 130g of protein for a 140lb active woman. In other words: a lot more than most of us get.

I’ve tried numerous protein powders to increase my own intake and most of them are pretty gross! This one is tasty chocolate and light on the stevia (which I do not enjoy and seems to be why I dislike most powders). Available at my office.
