I would love for this to be taught in every high school health class. And I’m sharing it here, on the Speak Happiness blog, because no one is happy when she’s starving. Been there done that (I was a runway model during law school — 5’8″, 115 lbs., and every day someone I worked for told me I was fat).

Food nourishes, not just the body, but the brain and the soul.
Fed people are happy people.
Healthy people are happy people.
Be nourished! Be happy!
