If you're visiting the Toronto area and you have a couple of extra days, I highly recommend you hop in the car and drive up the 400 (the major highway that runs north of Toronto and is the most direct route to this region). Canadian's refer to this spot as Cottage Country. It's a mixture of estate lake homes, pass down generational cottages, resorts, hotels, and camp sites. This region is peppered with some of the most beautiful lakes and wildlife. It's a must visit if you're in the area! And the best part? It's four seasons! It has something for everyone no matter the time of year. But personally I prefer the summer time visits!
As much as a documentary or narrative feature set outdoors can scratch the nature itch when you can't run off to the backcountry yourself, neither comes close to the escapist power of an book that gets your cranial gears cranking. Sometimes, the landscape of a great book will inspire future adventures to that very place! But just as often, disappearing into a book that makes use of wild places is an adventure in and of itself. Here are 14 books—fiction, nonfiction, and illustrated children's books—that will have you reaching for your walking stick.
What you eat is VITAL to how you feel—in fact, your overall health is impacted 80% by food! I know it seems daunting, but every good choice adds up, just as every bad choice culminates ultimately as obesity, brain fog, headaches, gut issues, achy joints, diabetes, and heart disease. Do yourself a favor and start now; take control of your food, before the toxins, pathogens, parasites, and deficiencies take control of you! I’ve made this list (and will continuously add to it) so that it’s easy to make the right decision every single day! It’s not about deprivation, it’s about nourishing your body, mind/brain, heart/soul every single day!
Trust that I know a little!! We’ve had 3 babes that have all used these items listed and I wouldn’t do anything different. It’s made our lives simpler! 🥰
