Love is healing. Love is comforting. Love is holy. Food can be all those things, too.

Your purpose is about discovering and nurturing who you truly are, to know and love yourself at the deepest level and to guide yourself back home when you lose your way. That's it. Everything else is your burning passion, your inspired mission, your job, your love-fueled hobby, etc. Those things are powerful and essential, but they're not your purpose. Your purpose is much bigger than that.

We consume far too many animal products, processed and refined foods, saturated fats, and empty calories. Industries that profit from both our ignorance and our misfortune spoon-feed us confusion and deception.

We always have the potential to rise. Rise out of our slump. Rise out of our negative thoughts. Rise out of our comfort zone. Rise out of our complaints. GET UP AND RISE. Rising is a choice that's one powerful thought away.

What if your purpose is to take impeccable care of yourself so that you have the energy and joy to serve others?

While I may never be in remission from cancer, I am currently in remission from an unhealthy relationship to food.

Direct your mind where you want it to travel instead of always going for the ride.
