As a home health and hospice nurse for years, eating healthy on the go was always a huge challenge! It was way too easy to opt for a quick run through the drive-through to grab some fast food. The pounds packed on and I'm still working today to get the rest of them off! I finally learned how to make a healthy, delicious lunch so I could grab and go.That took a lot of dedication and discipline, but I found that it does work. I want to share with you how to plan, organize, implement and adjust your own habits to improve your eating on the go whether you work out of your vehicle or in a facility or office. Healthy Eating on the Go provides you plans for making and keeping lists of your favorite foods, and how to meal plan and prep those meals so you can enjoy them on the go. The book includes some of my favorite recipes to inspire and motivate you. There are links to products you may want to consider for making and implementing this process easier. It's available on Amazon.com in Kindle format and Paperback. Beyond the book, there is a WORKBOOK available HERE and on my Etsy Shop to print from .pdf files, or perhaps inspire you to make your own tables and lists.

Self care is such an essential part of nursing!! Journals that capture memories and gratitudes are invaluable. I designed this journal to be simple and easy to use because time is precious, but so are the memories. Enter a one r two word gratitude daily and log your favorite memories as they happen. Review entries when you need a boost or want to recall specific events. My Self-Care Journal is available on Amazon.com
