For years, I have been expanding into more into healthy assertiveness and yet what is unfolding in me by lifting weights (now in a more harcore way at the gym) feels profound. Physical practice quite easily leads to distinct, measureable personal evolutions.... Which diet is best?
Which diet do you believe is the best for overall human health? I’ve done a million and one ways of eating, and I’ve currently landed on prioritizing protein, fiber, and colors (diverse veggies).... - lyssa...
Physical movement is super central to my well-being and is completely second nature to me. If something is frustrating me, I take a walk. If I'm sad, I hit a workout.
