Thanksgiving is not only about food, despite what the advertisers would have you believe. For me, giving thanks for a bountiful life is more than the food on my table; I need more than food to complete me. Family, travel, good health, physical activity and the love of others are all a part of the complex nature of a healthy person.
My dogs, our doga practice, a healthy diet, and a thriving family life bring my world full circle. I'm taking a few days off to enjoy my whole family, here for the holiday weekend. As I do so, if you're here looking for some reading, I'll leave you with a few carefully chosen articles on holiday topics, to help you nourish your own Thanksgiving:- Safe and Happy at Home: Dogs and Your Visitors--
