  • Reminder; there is no need to “make up” for the holiday. . Tomorrow is a Monday - after a holiday - and the start of a new month. A trifecta disaster if you live by the rules of diet culture. . Instead, make choices this week that feel good. . I’m craving movement, so I’ll make that a priority. I’m also craving crisp greens, warm veggie based soups, a slower introduction into the work week, and long snowy walks in the park with P. . What are you craving? What would you like to prioritize this week? .
