What’s so special about 
My Neighborhood Health? 

YOU BELONG!
 
  1. -MNH Neighborhood Activity


May 14th - June 25th

Take our 6 week challenge!


I know it’s a busy time of year and most

of us think, I can’t take one more thing. I

want to challenge you to do just that!


Here’s a few ideas:


1 MORE run this week

1 MORE set of reps

1 MORE try

1 MORE walk for the dog

1 MORE glass of water

1 MORE yoga pose

1 MORE serving of veggies

1 MORE pushup - each week


You get the idea! Choose one thing for the

next 6 weeks prior to summer, come

up with your own thing, challenge

yourself. It’s more fun and will be more

rewarding if it’s a REAL challenge.


Go ahead give it MORE!! Share with us on Facebook or contact me here. Can’t wait to hear about your challenge!

- School Lunches


I was recently introduced to the Lunch Love

Community and think that while we are

rethinking school lunches and policies we should

definitely take a look at these videos. They share

the ups and downs, the challenges and hurdles

and yet the success of changing school lunch

programs. Inspiring!


See this video below: The Labor of Lunch

We have been providing the Wellesley

Food Pantry with fresh produce on

This month we will be bringing

strawberries. Donations should be dropped

off by June 12th. We also happily take any

other donations you would like to bring.

I’m currently reading a book written by one of our neighbors, Margaret Moore. I hope to interview her. She has written Organize your Mind, Organize your Life: Train your Brain to Get More Done in Less Time along with of Paul Hammerness. Paul explains the brain while Margaret, aka “Coach Meg”, shows us how to implement the task of everyday life. For me, taming the frenzy and shift sets have been extremely valuable. If you are feeling distracted, stuck and unorganized, this book will tell you how to get it straight with your mind bringing you to a calm, structured state of wellbeing. I have learned a lot about my brain I did not know. It turns out, I’m not loosing my mind! 

If you think you are loosing your mind, give this a try and support our local book store: Wellesley Books!

- What I’m reading:

Well, I’m definitely no farmer but I keep trying, I started out with some seeds this year and learned a few lessons. While I had my dining room table covered in seedlings the month of April most did not make the transplanting. Ugh! A few things are still hanging on and looking pretty good. My basil has made a come back and then I went out and purchased a few more hardy plants to fill the void. I will admit, I do love to garden just wish I had more time. For extra’s I’m thinking of having a herb stand in my front yard for neighbors and of course, friends. :)
