Nourish Together - Weekly Newsletter - 9/23/21

Hi, Sweet Friends,

Welcome back to Nourish Together, a compilation of wellness products, practices, tips, and inspiration I'm loving right now. Plus, any updates that I feel are awesome and worth sharing.

I hope you find value in the content.

Recipe of the Week

I first made this Spicy African Yam Soup recipe when I was working on my Registered Dietitian credential at Mount Mary College. My classmates and I took over the campus dining hall and cooked a Mediterranean Feast for our fellow students! I chose North African cuisine and immediately fell in love with this recipe. It’s incredibly flavorful and super easy to make.

The recipe is delicious as is. Oftentimes, though, I will eliminate the chickpeas (tough on my tummy) and add more peanut butter. A friend of mine adds rotisserie chicken when she makes it.

I hope this recipe becomes one of your new fall favorites!

Inspiration

Today, I had the opportunity to celebrate five women who were recognized for their incredible service to the communities in which they live. I left with lots of “goosebumps” feeling totally inspired.

Then, I spent a few hours with a friend who I absolutely love and adore. I left her home feeling peaceful, cared for, and emotionally energized.

It was a day filled with deep human connection. I highly recommend it.

One of My Favorite Things (NOT sponsored, just sharing a product I use and love)

You can imagine my complete surprise and delight when I learned that my tent neighbors at Summerfest this year were Colette & Mark, my same tent neighbors from Bastille Days in 2019!

It was so fun to be reacquainted! Colette & Mark sell Hip Klip Wallets and I finally bought one after constantly thinking about them for TWO YEARS!

Hip Klip Wallets can be clipped to your waistline and are intended to be used in place of a purse. I had a different idea for using one.

I have sleep issues and listen to white noise at night on my phone. And, although I turn on “airplane mode” and use wired headphones, I cringe at the thought of the remnant magnetic field around me.

Hip Klip Wallets are made with a copper-plated lining that offers protection from this potentially harmful exposure. I just slip my phone into the wallet before I fall asleep.

People have different thoughts on electromagnetic pollution. I’m someone who doesn’t think it’s awesome for my body, and I like to take steps to reduce it.

(Shameless Nourish Plug: Did you know that Black Tourmaline Crystals are also thought to help reduce levels of EMF pollution?! That’s why we include them in our Sage Smudge Spray.)
