Sixteen members of our Robson Ranch New Beginnings Yoga and Wellness family had a great morning on June 16 at the home of Nancy Neal with her daughter Kristin Myres. Kristin shared her inspiring story of implementing a plant-based eating regime in 2009 after the birth of her fifth child when she was struggling with her health.

Since her teenage years, Kristin had struggled with respiratory conditions, illness and fatigue. Today, eight years later, with the birth of two more children bringing the total to seven, she has continued her healthy eating journey for herself and her family and feels better than ever.

Kristin shared that she initially met with a lot of resistance from both family and friends with her dietary changes. But now they embrace what she is doing, and she is constantly being asked to address groups on different aspects of her eating and wellness program. We were lucky to have her share her experiences with us!

Kristin bases her program on the work of Dr. Michael Greger’s research based “Daily Dozen” essential foods to include in a healthy daily diet. Kristin and Linda walked through a typical day from breakfast to dinner and shared smoothies, soups, appetizer, entree and dessert recipes needed to get the Daily Dozen essential foods groups into your diet. And did I mention we got to sample these delicious taste treats throughout the morning?

Check out the delicious recipes Nancy and Kristin shared that are posted in a new “Healthy Recipe” section on our New Beginnings Website, www.new-beginnings-yoga-wellness.com.

Thanks, Kristin and Nancy, for making it a morning to remember!
