Since entering the world of intuitive eating these last few months, the concept of what it means to be healthy has been on my mind a lot. These are my reflections on what it means to be healthy. https://t.co/mQjkZKpusC

If you worked in a retail setting and a group of 20 or so unmasked customers walked in in protest, what would you do? Asking for a friend. @RegionofHalton

@joyoushealth I'd love to be able to reduce the use of my blue box and opt for container-free, plastic wrapping free foods. It's hard! But we don't drive or own a car. We take public transport and bike (more bike these days).

@sedailisavhcaz @canadiangirlbc1 Because wearing a mask helps stop the spread of the virus. Pretty simple. So other people are protecting you by wearing a mask.

6. The health benefits of cycling outweigh the safety risks by a factor of 20:1
7. Studies comparing commuting by bicycle+car report that cyclists find their mode of transport as flexible+convenient as those who use cars, w lower stress+^feelings of freedom, relaxation+excitement

[Violeta Puente @VioleNutrition]

Why bike?
1. Low cost. Inclusive.
2. Powered by our own energy
3. Improves Cardiovasc health, DM2
4. Bicycle commuters report a higher quality of life
5. An adult cyclist typically has a level of fitness equivalent to someone 10 yrs younger+a life expectancy 2 yrs ^ the avg

@TheSpec @radleyatthespec Yes they have the money. They just don't want to spend it on supporting bike transportation. It's a car culture.

Tourism aside, I rely on Sobi to get me home when I arrive to the GO station in the night time. It's a 5 minute bike ride home vs a 20 minute walk in the dark.

[Violeta Puente @VioleNutrition]

Having fun with my cousin visiting from abroad. We always relied on sobi for group outings. Sobi was an essential part of the tourist attraction in #hamont. People were always impressed. I'm heart-broken. @cityofhamilton @SoBiHamilton

[Violeta Puente @VioleNutrition]

Last year in May. Typical Hamilton outing, Bayfront, bike ride using Sobi. At this time I didn't have a bike so heavily relied on Sobi to get around. @cityofhamilton @SoBiHamilton

@RDValerie Dancing 100%! Salsa probably the most uplifting, if not 90s r&b.
