This blog is about living life fully and beautifully in the face of challenges. I thought I’d start the ball rolling with a little list I wrote last winter, when I was gamifying my life with SuperBetter and doing a lot of hard thinking about self-care.

Eat whole, fresh, home cooked foods and be nourished.
Exercise enough to feel strong, fit, and energetic.
Take time to rest your body and be renewed.
Cultivate grace, poise, and fluidity.

Savor the sensuous nature of physical existence.
Affirm and celebrate your capabilities.
Compassionately honor your body’s limitations.

Weave a vibrant web of interpersonal connections.
Challenge yourself to meet new people and try new things.
Learn to listen well and deeply.

Awaken.
Write.
Grow.
