I am so excited to share with you the new and updated look to my blog, www.life-remodeled.org. I felt it was time to revise the logo to help better show the purpose for my blog. The sprout has a lot of meaning behind it for me and symbolizes visually, the growth in my own life and from my eating disorder recovery.
Growth is always positive and even if it’s just a tiny sprout of change, I know I’m moving in the right direction. So many areas of my life have been impacted by this tiny sprout and I’m working on continuing to grow and share what I’m learning.
“Look! I’m doing a new thing; now it sprouts up;
don’t you recognize it? I’m making a way
in the desert, paths in the wilderness.”
~Isaiah 43:19
In the beginning of my recovery, my agent had a wonderful idea to have me plant a seed and learn to take care of it as it grew. This helped me to learn how important it was to take care of my own body and my mind. As I saw new growth in what I planted, I was also seeing new growth in myself. Honestly, a few of my plants didn’t make it; growth is not always easy. Like taking care of a plant, recovery and transforming your mind is a daily process. Even after the plant has grown, you still have to take care of it on a regular basis. There were days that I wasn’t sure I would ever see any change, but like my little plant, soon the soil opened up and new growth began.
Life-remodeled.org has a new look but continues with the same purpose of sharing the importance of a clean and balanced way of eating; spreading awareness about eating disorder recovery; promoting a positive body image; and sharing healthy and delicious recipes.
