Want proof that the habits you keep make all of the difference? Confucius said, “Men’s natures are alike; it is their habits that separate them.” John Dryden famously said, “We first make our habits, and then our habits make us.” And Aristotle noticed that, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.” It’s pretty clear that the habits you adopt will shape who you are. What are your habits? Do you eat the same thing for lunch, go through the same exercise routine, and fall into bed at the same time each night? Or maybe you’ve made a habit out of eating something sweet before bed, avoiding the ....

Spaghetti squash is the easiest of all the veggie noodles to prepare since the noodles are already formed in nature.

Make Spaghetti Squash Noodles:
1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Cut the spaghetti squash in half, lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. 2. Rub the inside of each spaghetti squash half with coconut oil and sprinkle with sea ....
