Hello Reader, An artist’s practice is very much like how I see nutrition. They play around a lot and figure things out - but they also take time to practice foundational movements, looking at Masters who came before them to see how to do things. An artist learns about color theory and how red, yellow, and blue can be mixed together to make green, orange, and purple. They learn about perspective and angles and how that can create depth. They learn about line weights and strokes. They understand light and how it affects how we see form. Sure, you can sit down and paint something without any skill, and it might look okay, but you also might end up with brown muck. The same goes for nutrition - if you understand the building blocks of what your body needs for fuel and how food provides those building blocks, then you can start to meet your nutritional needs by creating meals with those building blocks. It seems simple; we all played with blocks as kids. Nutrition is the same; you have some basic components and put together in different ways, you’ll get different results. The key is figuring out how they best fit together to get the results you want. Go check out todays post on IG to see a more in-depth version of what I mean and how you can take this into your week. As always, you’re working on the skills of Awareness of what is happening in your own life and then analyzing how you can apply your nutritional knowledge. I would love to know, reply to this email, what do you know about nutrition and the building blocks of your nutrient needs? Pay attention to the rest of this week, can you recognize the building blocks of nutrition in the meals you eat? Cheers, Morgan |

I had a couple of harsh realities handed to me this week. My dog injured his leg playing around with my partner last night - and it was a glimpse into a possible future. He is a 72 lb golden with hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis. He’s had surgery on his right hind hip and probably needs it on his other. So far, we have been managing with pain meds and love. But last night, after roughhousing, he started limping and couldn’t get up to walk to the bedroom - so we carried him. FYI - he is mostly...
I’m 25 days out from a half-marathon race I haven’t been training for. Monster Mountain at mile 1.7 😳 And yet, I’m strangely confident. Have you ever committed to something you weren’t ready for and then didn’t give enough time to? As the days dwindle down, I’m reminded that consistent movement builds a foundation for spontaneous adventures. When you build movement into your life you can be ready to do things on a whim and tap into those benefits. Even though my run mileage has only brought...
