Quotes to ponder:

"Instead of abusing ourselves by putting junk in our bodies (just to satisfy cravings of comfort), we can find joy in the nourishment of our bodies with gorgeous, healthy, delicious food."

"We can just stop striving. Just find joy in this present moment, without needing the crutch of our fantasies."

"The bodies we have are incredible, wonders of nature, and we take them for granted."
