You Are What You Read

I am currently reading, Mad About the Boy, by Helen Fielding.  It's the third book in the Bridget Jones series and it's a total escape.

I often read more than one book at a time, usually one fiction and one non-fiction.  My current non-fiction read is Deepak Chopra's, What Are You Hungry For?  It has made me want to eat more of these:

It's all about awareness and "lightness of soul," which are really good things.  Here are four ways I lighten my soul (currently, though not always consistently):

1)  Read inspiring books (I'm also reading God Never Blinks, by Regina Brett)

2)  Exercise (the elliptical is my biggest mode of exercise right now)

3)  Meditate (using a cd and meditating for 10 minutes)

4)  Write thank you notes (part of this is for my job and part of this is because I know the benefits to me and hopefully to the recipient)

I feel the need for a fifth way, so today I will see if something strikes!
