Welcome to Healthy living. I strive every day to be healthier. I been inspired by what I have learned as a nurse, and as a public health professional about what health is. I believe that to be healthy we have to look at the whole person, and address underlying issues that can cause illness. I believe that nutrition and taking care our mental health is very important when it comes to health. On this page you will find tips, ideas, recipes to be healthier as well as resources I find helpful.
