This is a powerful quote and something you should remember when you are journeying into any new endeavor but also when you are moving through the world. It's taken until three years ago for me to be able to be authentic. I really didn't know what that meant. I feel like at this point in my life, I'm living in my most authentic skin. As a result, I think people are more inclined to be my friend and to be themselves around me. Maybe this is why students come into my office and just gush....something to ponder!
How does this apply to my Paleo life, my active life, my scholar-practitioner life? Well, that's easy! I'm true to myself and the way my body needs nourishment and I refuse to follow a strict way of eating that limits me and doesn't allow me to enjoy the things I enjoy most. In terms of activity, I do what I want. I go to barre, I walk (I try to get at least 8000 steps during the work week and my goal is to increase on the weekends), I work out at the gym sometimes. I just do what feels good for me. I love that. I love that my way of life is for me and no one else.
