Just saw this posted on the Azure FB page. What great advice! Baby steps are definitely important so you can make positive, lasting changes without becoming overwhelmed. I also encourage meal planning as a great way to plan ahead – adding to your point #3. It keeps me on track for eating healthy and making sure I have everything planned out for the week also results in less stress and more money savings. I have a section on my meal plan specifically for what I need to do to prep for the day and the day ahead, which also helps keep me on track with little mental effort trying to remember what I should be doing each day. That frees me up to stay focused on all the other things that are happening throughout the day. Thanks for sharing! Just adore your blog, it’s so inspiring and helpful! Blessings, kel

Charity, hello!

Here’s why I prefer sourdough: http://gnowfglins.com/2009/08/10/the-differences-between-quick-yeasted-bread-and-wild-yeasted-sourdough-bread/

So far I’ve used wheat and spelt with my sourdough. Both worked well. I haven’t tried Kamut, but I think it would be nice. Perhaps heavier, but such a nice, nutty flavor. Have fun! You can do it!

Thanks SO SO much for all of this awesome info… you really inspire me and keep an excitement for all of this ignited!! I think I am going to try to make a sourdough start… I’ve never done anything with sourdough, I need to research it a bit more. What made you decide to change to sourdough? Do you prefer a certain grain? I am mostly using Kamut!?
Thanks again BUNCHES!!
Hugs!!
Blessings,

Dear Wardeh — thank you for such great information and encouragement — for me the first step — even before cooking healthy foods, was to get used to preparing all my family’s food PERIOD. .

Then, as I got used to that huge step (for me) I substitute more healthy ingredients and preparation methods as I go. .

I could not imagine soaking my grains, if at first I had not been baking my own bread for a while — albeit white bread in a bread machine. . my bread machine bit the dust recently, so now I am hand kneading and slowly going whole wheat — don’t know when (or if) I’ll make it to soaking and sprouting — one step at a time, I guess. .
