Vegan Recipes | Made to Nourish
For a few weekends in a row, I've written this post in a reflective, calm state, posted it early in the day, and spent the remainder of my Sunday doing what needs doing.Not today: the Sunday Scaries swooped in this morning, and in spite of planning some nice stuff in the afternoon (including seeing a play with my mom) that helped to quell them, I've just been too scattered to sit down and write anything. I'm starting a new internship rotation tomorrow. The end ...
A few weeks ago, in sharing a lasagna recipe, I mentioned that big, casserole-like dishes have been a meal prep time-saver for me lately. They're more involved than other recipes, but once they've been prepared, they give me at least 4-6 extra portions of food. And they're a nice way to break up my routine of soups and stews and bowls, which—though trusty allies throughout my whole internship year—are getting a little repetitive at this point.I often get ...
It's been a lovely couple days of taking my own advice.In Friday's post—the responses to which I'm so grateful for—I mentioned the importance of learning how to relax, and then practicing relaxation whenever possible.

As this week approached, I asked folks on Instagram what recovery topics they’d like to hear about. One of the questions I got was how to eat around others. The question didn’t specify a stage of recovery, but I think it’s an important conversation for any stage! At the start of recovery, learning to eat…
There’s always an official NEDA week theme, but most of the time the posts I write for this week end up finding a theme of their own. The National Eating Disorder Association’s theme for 2019 is “Come as You Are,” which emphasizes diversity and inclusivity in our community of those living with EDs, those recovering…
Happy Monday, friends! As you probably noticed, I took a pause from weekend reading this week in order to reflect on National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. Each year, I use this week as an opportunity to reflect on my own recovery and to celebrate recovery with all of you. This year’s NEDA week theme is…
