Live Life 365 with and by Mike Foster!

This is such a special blog for me to write, I'm grinning ear to ear - can't ya tell?  Sometimes you meet somebody and you know they are kindred spirits.  I must have a good healthy love for mine then cuz I sure love his!

I started following a blog by Mike Foster called Live Life 365 about three years ago.  Mike does videos on his blog that are great - I learned the easy way to cut/eat avocados, for instance.  You name it, he will tell you what it is, how to cook it and eat it - many things the average person has never tried I'll bet ya!  He is ALL about healthy foods, nutrition, staying motivated, taking walks in nature, and making good choices.  Every once in a while he will write a song and sing it with his guitar.  The walks I've actually BEEN ON with him since he takes his camera right along with him. 

He videos from his lanai in Maui on his vaca there every year - so nice to see it when there is winter in the air here - he videos when he is gardening and sweating - always good to see somebody sweat, isn't it? -  and of course  many videos in his kitchen.  Writing songs, writing blogs, making videos........

So what does Mike do?  He writes a book!  A very practical, very awesome, guide book on how to eat and live well 365 days a year!  Immediately I order it.  And it's great.  It's very Mike. 

He tells his story of how his life and health were horrendous, and self-destructive, and how he turned it all around.  Today he looks great, feels great, has energy and probably added YEARS to his life!
I just love a good story of people over-coming so much and getting it together to help others to do the same.  And he DOES.  His book is like his blog, filled with wonderful information anyone can use to improve their own health and vitality adding years to their lives as well!

It is not just the foods that Mike talks about that are healthy either.  His philosophies are!  All of this comes from a person who learned it all the hard way.  In my opinion, that is the best of all teachers, those who lived it and who KNOW.  Experiencing a turn-around in your own life makes for a powerful advocate for helping others change too - and Mike does a great job of that.  From following his blog I know he has helped a lot of people live healthier lives.  (By the way, he even printed one of my comments in the back of his book - thanks Mike!  You probably thought I wouldn't notice it, haha)

He offers sage advice on motivation, goal setting and spirituality.  This is an all-around, helpful, inspiring,  full of goodness kind of book, written by a guy with those same qualities.   Check out his website and blog where you can find his book, great videos and lots of Mike!  And then you will get it.  You will definitely know why I was grinning ear to ear when I started writing this blog.  It's Mike - and Live Life 365!

p.s.  Patricia over at Patriciaswisdom.com gave me a blog award last Thursday - The Irresistibly Sweet Blog Award - and I thank you, Patricia, from the bottom of my heart.  I don't do blog buttons cuz first of all I'm technically challenged with them, and also I've received a bunch in the past three years and I want to acknowledge, say thanks and treat them all the same.  It's such a honor to be singled out for these, seriously.  A very nice pat on the back for which I am grateful.
