“What is something kind you did today?”
 

 Physical Health
 
 Eat Well
 
 Sugar perhaps is your kryptonite.  Sugar is also very very good at hide-and-seek.

 Be Active
 
 Fascinating (to me, at any rate) look at measures we look at that indicate ‘health’ and why it is these are good measures.

 Let's move!
 
 There are days when it is just too much to get a hard sweat on.  That doesn't mean you can't do a workout that will leave you feeling amazing rather than sweaty.

 Spiritual Health
 
 What is 'human well-being'?  How are you doing with that skill, human?

 Mental & Emotional Health
 
 We spend a lot of mental energy on worrying.  Can't help it; we are human.  But sometimes that spending moves into 'wasting' levels.  Reframe those worrying thoughts into something more effective and useful.

 Social Health
 
 Social health includes being there, being present in the good times and the bad.  Sometimes, it is just important to be there.

 And another, since this is so on-point: of course, we are going to fight with our spouse/partner/co-parent/boyfriend/girlfriend.  Though we may be social creatures, this is a L O T of time together.  And during a particularly stressful time, too.  How to be in a relationship, quarantine-style.

 Happy Monday! Two links for you today. The first is for a laugh:

 The second is for your mental wellness. Because who doesn't want to watch a live-stream of manatees or whales? (Adding several stops to my bucket list with these... )

 Who's ready for some cake?  Aren't we all?  And this one is a lemony, almond-y easy-to-throw together deal that you can be enjoying in less than an hour.

 New post: gird your loins! And know that what you are doing in the kitchen makes a big difference.
