Welcome and Thank you for listening. Do you have a wellness tribe? How do you maintain your health? Do you have separate groups who you eat with and others that you exercise with? Do your communities overlap? I will discuss this topic and much more on today's episode.
We had our second holiday potluck with the practice yesterday and it was a great thing to witness. Happy healthy people sharing plant based food and family stories. We are pack animals and need to fit into a group. Life is easier as a team sport. A sense of community provides comfort, support and guidance. I love watching people interact and support each other. Our team provides support and guidance as well as accountability to our members as they work to improve their health and wellness. Together we have created a tribe that shares a common interest. We are readily accessable for medical care if needed but more importantly, we are there to prevent and reverse lifestyle diseases that compromise the enjoyment of life. Not only do my members have a relationship with me and the staff but with each other.
More people have heart attacks on Christmas and New Years than any other time of the year per a BMJ study. This is all preventable by maintaining a healthy plant based diet, exercise, and having a positive mental attitude. It certainly helps to be around people who are like minded.

Thank you once again. My daughter, son and 2 grand girls are visiting this week and none eat plant based. I plan to set a colorful table anyway! Will make sweet potato enchiladas but will include a salad with ingredients in small bowls so they can add to their salad what they want. I will have my own oil free dressing but they will likely choose a regular dressing. I have made cocoa bites to take to local Christmas gatherings and I must say so have had compliments on those. Little did people realize they were eating dates, a variety of ground nuts, chia seeds and flax seeds! Will send my son info on the Game Changers documentary coming out. He has Netflix but so far he has been very resistant to change even those My guess is he is in the obese category of BMI. Wish I had known all this about plant based eating many years ago, but I will be an example and share what plant based eating has done for me. Always look forward to your suggestions. Still hoping to get down to your VegFest, hopefully next year. Am talking with a plant based friend and we are probably going to attend Plant Stock in August in North Carolina. 3 hour drive. Trying to invite others to go as well. Keep up the good work and I see your practice as ideal!
