Veggin' It Up In State College

Revive, Refresh and Renew were the themes for the PA Women's Retreat this weekend in State College. It was all that and more!

Well over 300 women came together for classes and workshops that inspired body, mind and spirit. I was honored to partner with Sheryl Glover and talk about beautiful God given food. Sheryl shared her personal health journey focusing a lot on diabetes. She made us stop and really think about ourselves - what we are doing/not doing to take care of the life God has given us. With gentleness and deep conviction she really inspired us.

After an introductory shower of Spring Mix Confetti, I was able to do my usual plant push while letting the women try some delicious concoctions. Enjoying lots of audience participation, we learned about incorporating FAR MORE whole plant foods into our daily diets.

I look forward to the Embrace Health Seasonal Supper this Saturday night,7:00pm at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Glenside. It is another night of inspiration, education, support and delicious real food! I hope a lot of you will come and bring friends. (By the way ladies these are great for guys. We will have several men sharing. Somehow forums like this seem to move the men way more than hearing it from their wives!!)
