In this episode of Eat the Damn Bread we talk with self-care expert, Kelly Newsome Georges, of Ritual Care. We also dive into the misconceptions of self care and how true self-care can be ritualistic and be utilized as a tool to support you not just in the moment, but throughout your day.

Kelly also shares her wisdom around why we are in need of understanding the true essence of ritual care and how it can support us during this especially heightened time as we deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Of course, as Kelly currently lives in the South of France, we couldn’t leave without picking her brain about the differences between French and American women and how they approach this topic of self care!

Tune in to hear this wonderful interview and gather all types of gems to support you in not just surviving, but thriving!

Health and nutrition are always top priority in my book, and I many of us are especially considerate of it during the current COVID-19 crisis, as everyone is worried about their immune system.

The great thing is that if you attend to your health and wellness consistently, not just in high need times your body will take care of you.  This is why it is so important to identify the specific diet that your body responds to and allows for you to maintain optimal health.

In today's episode I chat with Sophie Van Tiggelen from the blog, A Squirrel in the Kitchen.  She is an authority on the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) who has authored several books on the subject and develops recipes specific for the protocol.

She shares with us exactly who can benefit from an AIP diet, why you should consider eating this way, even if you have no know autoimmune issues and gives us a wealth of resources for you to dig into to learn more!

In the states, vacation and holiday time can be limited, and therefore selecting how you spend this time is a high priority, and getting it right is crucial.

Retreats have become a viable option for vacation time over the past few years, but what makes a retreat the "thing-to-do" and why would you select a retreat over a traditional vacation and vice versa?

In this episode we discuss the difference between a retreat and vacation. We also go into detail about what makes a retreat worth the time and money. And of course, we connect it all to your overall well being.

REVIEW: Don't forget to leave a rating and review for the podcast! Your 5-star review might just be shared on an upcoming episode!

Let me say that this topic is definitely on target and today is all about sharing the wellness practices of the French. A lot of these are going to come from French women, but guys out there, you can definitely utilize these! They are not necessarily gender specific.

It's all about how the French use these practices to live and create a life of elegance in the mundane and the minutia of it all. Now, let's not get it twisted, no matter where you live in the world. And no matter how your wellness practices are, there are still going to be tasks that come up requirements that can't be circumvented. And for me a laundry to fold that will make you feel less than tres chic by any means.

But, what I love most about the French wellness practices, and their approach to life is that it's bundled in this elegant fabric and it just makes it feel like a five star resort versus like an entry level hostel. So today my points of reference for our topic come from two of my favorite books from French authors.
