Last week we discussed the Pitta night time between 10pm and 2am and how we can best prepare for a restful sleep as much as possible. The summer months can be more difficult to get to bed early but in the coming weeks we will notice the earlier sunsets which is the perfect time to start building this habit into your routine. Gradual change is the way to go with this one and I can personally speak to the benefits of cultivating an evening routine that supports this habit. Think about putting a baby to bed when it comes to lighting, sounds and for most of us- screens.

We also discussed the Habit Evolution Technique: Anchor Statement and how a simple statement can help us keep steady as we drift through the tides and ebbs and flows of life.

Our plant wisdom for the week was Jatamansi. Presuming most of us are familiar with the supportive medicine from Lavender and Chamomile for our evening routines, jatamansi might be new and is known to especially help with quieting the mind to prepare to rest.

Habit #3: Start the Day Right

This week we will be diving into how we can build up our morning routine. This habit can be as simple or as dynamic as you wish but being purposeful as early as possible in the day will truly set you up for success throughout your day. Success is going to mean different things to each of us and part of our morning habits is making space to figure out what that is. We will discuss what a healthy morning consists of, why it is such a special time of day and how to make the most of it no matter where you are starting from.

We can continue some yoga postures, or try on some breathwork- reply or comment here if you have a preference for this week!

And of course we will also include another Habit Evolution Technique and some Plant Wisdom.

Habit #2: Go to Bed Early
Evolution Technique #2: Anchor Statement
Plant Wisdom: Jatamansi

We started this week’s call with some yoga, specifically touching on some postures in a moon salutation that you might find helpful during our hot summer days and pitta season.

Building from Habit #1, eating our BIG lunch, we discussed this week how to roll that into a restful sleep and more importantly why it is such an important part for our overall health and wellbeing. If you find yourself scrolling on screens or caught in a “next episode” loop this call is one you don’t want to miss. It might help you fall in love with sleep again :)

We combined this with an overview of the technique Anchor Statement again building from last week where if we can identify a brief statement that summarizes the identity we are building it can help keep us anchored as we make choices through our day.

And finally for some plant wisdom we highlighted Jatamansi. Although there are many sleep and rest supportive plants like lavender, chamomile and passion flower- this is one I had not previously heard of and is used in Ayurveda specifically to calm the mind and enhance sleep.

Here are some resources and tasks that you can use and refer back to as you practice this week’s habit:

Some Resources

• Here is the link for the Sleep Cove podcast that has helped me fall asleep many times. Christopher Fitton’s voice is very soothing and there are tons of stories to choose from.

• Check out the YouTube recording of Habit #2 call if you missed it or want to revisit it along our journey.

• If you have not done it yet- take a few minutes to do your DOSHA quiz.

• And lastly, feel free to use this link to add our weekly zoom call to your google calendar including the link to join.

Last week we launched into our first Habit: Eat a Big Lunch. Beginnings are always my favourite, be it starting a new book, a class, the September school season… there is something about all the potential that has always motivated me when it comes to beginnings. My enthusiasm tends to be at it’s peak as well as my commitment and execution, compared with endings where I find that personally I tend to taper off or sometimes just settle in with “good enough.” For some of us though beginnings can be the more challenging part, trying to change gears or finding tensions between old patterns and the new ones we are trying on for size. Luckily, one of the best parts about this course is that we consider everything as data and therefore there is no “getting it wrong” or failure. Every step or misstep informs us on our journey and how to regroup, tweak and try again. Quite simply our Habit #1 recap was to just Eat your biggest meal when the sun is above your head (between 10am and 2pm to be more precise). This allows us to take advantage of our peak digestive enzymes as well as prepare us for a good sleep which…. happens to be the subject of our next call this week!

We also discussed the Habit Evolution Technique: The Person I am Becoming and how to get clear and cultivate a sense of the newidentity we are creating. When I very first started this course years ago my first new identity was that I was “becoming the type of person who wakes up feeling rested and ready for the day.” It felt like miles away from my current reality but I can tell you now, it has been realized. Sure, not every single day but most days it is true so from my experience this technique works and it is a great starting place when we decide we want to make a change.

Last week we also discussed some plant wisdom the support our big lunch, namely ginger and fennel as supportive plants. One of our members shared one of their lunches with me this week where they tried fennel out for the first time! Here is a link that she shared for an easy fennel salad recipe that she tried this week if you are looking for some new fennel inspiration :)

Habit #2: Go to Bed Early

This week’s habit builds nicely from Habit #1. When we successfully eat that big lunch we have set ourselves up for success to have an earlier, lighter dinner which is actually one of the best things we can do to support a restful sleep. This week we will discuss why this is so important, the best time of day to sleep and the benefits over time of getting to bed early. We will also be touching on tips and tricks of how to bring this habit gently into your life and some of the common obstacles that we tend to encounter and ways to overcome them.

This week we will start our call with some simple yoga postures. No mat is necessary if you don’t have one but feel free to use one if you do. And of course we will also include another Habit Evolution Technique and some Plant Wisdom.

Habit #1: Eat a Big Lunch
Evolution Technique #1: I am becoming the type of person who…
Plant Wisdom: Ginger and Fennel

It was so lovely to launch into our new round yesterday with all of you. I especially loved some of our trouble shooting at the end of the call where we got a chance to consider how this new (for some of us) habit could be incorporated into our daily lives.

Week 1 is a good chance to practice “aiming for a B-” and don’t get discouraged if things don’t go as planned. Let curiosity lead your journey and consider it as more of an experimentation experience where we are collecting data on ourselves, what works, what doesn’t.

Keep your goals small and achievable and focus on momentum rather than perfection. For this week perhaps a starting point for some of us is to just eat something for lunch if that is new to us, for others it could be more like fine tuning what that lunch consist of or maybe bringing some new mindfulness to meal time.

We also discussed this week the Habit Evolution Technique of cultivating the identity of who we are becoming. If you haven’t done so already take a few moments and envision who you will be at the end of these 10 habits or in 108 days from now (that’s November 28th by the way). What identity are you focussed on or in other words Who is the person you are becoming?

Want some help with that digestive fire this week with your lunch? Try some ginger tea. It is as easy as slicing some ginger and pouring hot water on to it. (PS. The easiest way to peel the skin off of ginger is to use a spoon and scrape it.) Feeling overheated or have a Pitta imbalance? Try fennel for a similar herb that also supports digestion.

You might find it helpful to have a journal or use an agenda if you are old school like me to track some of your thoughts and create something that you can look back on because although this change is subtle and gradual, by showing up for yourself and practicing new habits, the change is inevitable.

So for this week here are some resources and tasks that you can use and refer back to as you practice this week’s habit:

Some Resources

• Take a few minutes to do your DOSHA quiz, especially if you have never done one before. The results may surprise you! (You do have to sign up on the site with email but you can unsubscribe right away if you don’t want more emails etc.)

• Here is the link for the YouTube Box Breathing that we did if you would like to try it again this week or save for later

• As promised, here is the link for the YouTube recording of yesterday’s call if you missed anything or want to revisit it along our journey.

• And lastly, feel free to use this link to add our weekly zoom call to your google calendar including the link to join.

Welcome friends to another season of LiveWell 108. You may not know but LiveWell 108 has been a work in progress for me since 2012! It started off as a Wordpress blog where I would share art and wellness and has since transformed into our weekly habits group and we have been meeting regularly since 2021. The name LiveWell was something I created as a twist on my last name Boswell and 108 is the auspicious number representing one, nothing, everything (if you turn the 8 sideways into an infinity sign). I love the name because it fits the organic nature of what we discuss and represents what I like to call The Art of Living Well.

We don’t follow strict rules, we make suggestions. We try them on for size, see what fits and learn how to guide ourselves from the inside out so that each of us can cultivate a life for ourselves that feels like Living with Ease.

Each of our weekly calls include:
-some Yoga or breath work
-introduction to one of our 10 daily habits
-one habit evolution technique
-plant wisdom, and finally
-a chance to regroup and discuss

Today, we start again from the beginning with Habit #1, one of my personal favourites: Eat a Big Lunch.

Habit #1: Eat a Big Lunch

Our first call tends to run a little longer as we will do a brief Introduction to Ayurveda and the Doshas which we refer to throughout our calls. Next we will jump into our first habit which is all about the best time of day to eat, why and how we can incorporate this new habit into our life.

It is hard to believe that our Vata season is coming to a close although the flowers and sparks of bright green cannot lie- we are changing seasons. In Vancouver I wouldn’t be surprised if we get a little hit of snow this month or next but it certainly won’t last long as the days are getting longer and things are warming up.

Last week we discussed Habit #8: Mindful Eating also known as Grandma’s Guidelines or in other words some tried and tested approaches that can help us bring mindfulness when we eat. Things like setting the table, candlelight (especially this time of year), music, friends are some of my favourite mindful tips but this habit also includes things like limiting snacks, how much water and what temperature is best to promote healthy digestion and absorption of nutrients. We also touched on some of the best and worst food combinations and how to combine tastes to ensure we are activating all parts of our tongue to complete the satiation feeling and find balance with our meals. This habit is subtle, yet powerful and I am happy to share the recording -just let me know :)

This week we will be discussing:

Habit #9: Come to Your Senses

This was the habit that I was the most excited about when I first embarked on the journey years ago. We will be discussing the easy, simple and basically free ways that we can take care of our senses which are the gateway for our experience on earth. Taking care of our senses is not to be overlooked and it is something that yogi’s have been doing for thousands of years. Join us today!

And as always we will be discussing the many benefits as well as tips and tricks to incorporate all of these new habits into your daily life.

It’s been a bit since my last post, like Vancouver this passed week the holiday season hustle and bustle was a bit of a foggy blur. We actually met twice since and discussed how changing our daily habits can affect our relationships and how to cultivate relationships that support our growth and well being. Newsflash- the support and shared enthusiasm we often seek doesn’t usually come from those we are the closest to and we talked about navigating that.

We also met last week and discussed Habit #6: Self Massage. This was the habit that I was most excited for when I first started this journey five years ago. Now it has bloomed into a nearly daily habit (yes, 5 minutes counts) and has actually changed how I feel in my skin. Protecting and cherishing this outer layer that connects inside me with the outside world and taking the time to use my warm hands with long strokes and luscious oil regularly is one of the best forms of self care I have found.

We discussed some of the issues being in the north with colder, darker winter days and also troubleshoot some of the logistics like how to avoid clogged pipes and prevent slips. If you would like the recording to last week’s call feel free to reply.

Yes the Youtube Channel is still very much on my list, despite lack of fruition. Still in the works. Check out our YouTube channel here and subscribe if you would like to receive notifications when the recordings will be posted. It is listed on Youtube as LiveWell 108.

This week we will be discussing:

Habit #7: Sit in Silence

I would consider this habit the peak, or the culmination of all the other habits. In other words the other habits lay the foundation from which this one can eventually arise and it is really about finding, making, taking the time to stop, drop and sit with yourself. I cannot imagine a more important habit to cultivate with the level of screen time and the rapidly developing language models (like chat gpt). Inner guidance, our intuition and peace within are the prize with this one. It doesn’t have to be fancy, and yes, 5 minutes definitely counts.

As always we will be discussing the many benefits as well as tips and tricks to incorporate all of these new habits into your daily life.

Last week we dove into Habit #4 building on our foundation of a big lunch, early to bed, starting the day right- we added in a breath body practice before breakfast. Considering our bones and muscles make up the vessel that carries us through life, we discussed how even as little as 5 minutes a day (while the coffee bodum is brewing) would be enough to notice gradual change over time.

I hope to get under the finish line of this current mercury retrograde and get this videos up on the channel but if not feel free to ask for the recording in the meantime.

Habit #5: Eat More Plants

An hour certainly isn’t long enough to fully capture the power of plants and our connection to them but we will skim the surface. Winter months can be challenging to feel connected to the plants around us but we will be discussing this today along with the importance of diversity and connecting to plants inherent wisdom.

Habit #4: Breath Body Practice (before Breaky)

We have set some of the solid foundation with the earlier habits and no matter where you are starting from we can find a way to incorporate this habit into your daily routine. Our bodies are funny in that when we don’t notice them- everything is working smoothly. This habit encourages us to be proactive and engage with intention even if it is in the smallest way, so that we can support our vessel through our entire life.

Last week we aligned just in time to go over Habit #2 with the Autumn time change. Going to bed early is much easier to practice in these darker days and a gentle wind back is where we will find true transformation.

Habit #3: Start the Day Right

I have a feeling this one isn’t what you think. We are getting down with the power and truly the importance of elimination and how critical it is to start the day right. To put our best foot forward we want to let go of yesterday and envision the day ahead as well as set ourselves up for success to receive the benefits of the morning hours.

We had a wonderful catch up and meeting this week discussing Self Massage and all of it’s benefits, tips and tricks. It seems to be one of the more difficult habits to bring home in the modern world given some of the special considerations for oil in general, yet potentially one of the most beneficial for our overall health and wellbeing if we take the time to incorporate this practice into our daily lives.

May 22 we met and discussed the benefits of eating more plants. Shortly following that we embarked on what was scheduled to be a three- five day plumbing job that turned into over a month. Life happens.

Last Thursday we discussed the importance of the one non negotiable habit: A Breath Body Practice. Considering that our bodies are our first home, our vessel, that carries us through it makes sense when you think about it that we would prioritize it’s care. More specifically we want to bring our attention and our regular practice to the health of our spine and our muscular skeletal structure because let’s face it- enjoyment and living well starts here.

Habit #5: Eat More Plants

Yes, I know this can be a triggering statement given the tensions between eating preferences, the vegan and vegetarian movements etc. but hear me out. This habit is for all of us. This week we will be discussing the POWER of plants and the medicinal qualities that they bring to our lives. This is not about what to eliminate- we focus on what to add into our nutrition and why it is so important to include diversity, seasonality and even local foraging into our daily lives.

A Brief Recap

Last Thursday we met and went over what I consider one of the most important of the daily habits. You see, our LiveWell habits are not just for our bodies to thrive but for us to reveal the harmony within and there is nothing better to do that than good old meditation. In short we discussed the importance and theory behind Starting the Day Right by waking up with gratitude and clearing the great channel within. Practically speaking this amounts to enough water to provoke complete elimination so that we are fresh to start the day and be present for what is, as opposed to carrying around yesterday’s waste. We have all heard about the gut/mind connection and this is exactly why elimination and a brief meditation can work together to expand our consciousness to a much broader perspective and help bring living in harmony into the forefront of our lives.

Passcode: 9mv=R.pv

Habit #4: Breath Body Practice,
Before Breakfast

Building upon our previous habits, we have lined up eating a big lunch, going to bed early and taking a few minutes in the morning to cultivate a broader perspective of our lives. This week we will add on a very approachable and malleable habit that will support your vitality for your entire life: moving your body, connecting with your breath BEFORE eating your breakfast. We will go over why the timing is ideal and a variety of options for any stage or style of life. It doesn’t have to be a marathon to start but breaking a sweat daily is ideal. If that isn’t in the cards yet, fear not- we have options for how to start.

Consider that your body is your first home. How much time and consideration do you put into your “home” with decorating, tidying, entertaining, gardening etc.? How can we reconnect with the priority of our body, the vessel that actually carries us through, and cultivate a practice in honour of that.

A Brief Recap

Last week we met and discussed the ins and outs of going to bed early. Building from the momentum of our previous week, we can set ourselves up for success by going to bed early without a full belly and after a bit of wind down time. We also discussed the importance of the sanctuary of BED and how much it contributes to waking up with energy and vitality.

I am sorry to say for some reason the recording did not come through! I will dig deeper in my spam but so far I have not seen it so apologies for not being able to link it here as I planned to.

Alas, if you come to our call this Thursday and want a little recap I am happy to provide that :)

Habit #3: Start the Day Right

I promise you this is not what you think it is about. It isn’t about the power of journaling, intentions, or having that instagram worthy morning routine… we are getting down to the meat and potatoes of Living Well and we are talking about- elimination!

This isn’t typically a subject that we tend to discuss outside of a doctors office or when things are going wrong but I am a huge fan of shining light on to this subject because it is a HUGE indicator of how we are doing in our bodies.

Ideally, we want to be a “pooping champion” and eliminate everyday upon rising. We don’t want to take yesterdays waste through us during our day do we?! No.

This week’s call we will discuss all things related to achieving a rhythmic elimination with your body and how to best support progress. By the way, it can be much simpler than you think to get on track and some of the solutions to being regular might just start with a glass of water at the right time.

Here is the info to join our call and I hope to see you there:
