Whole Living Thoughts- July/August

Whole Living thoughts this time are for both July and August so I thought I'd put them right smack in the middle of the month.

I have to say that I look forward to reading the list more than any other part of the magazine. 

1. Some of the best inner journeys start with the passport-stamped kind.  (Pass the in-flight peanuts.)
2. When our life stories start to sound predictable, it's time for a rewrite.
3. Overrated: multitasking.  Underrated: unitasking.
4.  Summer tomatoes: the universe's way of reminding us that good-for-you food tends to be delicious.
5. Midwives- of babies, ideas, peace- do amazing stuff.
6. Expanding the mind: always a cool thing-so what if it sounds a little too '60s-trippy.
7. Perpetually good advice from James Brown: "Get up offa that thing- and dance 'til you feel better."
8. Running on the beach beats trudging on a treadmill every time. (Just sayin'.)
9. Ever notice how people brighten up when you recognize their efforts?
10. There's a reason why nature is sometimes called vitamin N.
