I’m Sophie! Nice to meet you! I am 24, recently I graduated and I now have a masters degree in ‘Health Psychology’. I strongly belief that being healthy is very much about being happy, feeling good and taking good care of yourself. Stress is related to 99% of all diseases and people who feel good and take care of their emotional health have a very strong immune system and get sick rarely. Also, if you are happy you heal much faster than when you are not. When you are happy your cells are too. Remember.. be careful what you tell yourself, your cells are always listening.
I am from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and right now I live in the beautiful San Francisco. I always loved traveling and have lived in Asia, America and had the opportunity to I travel to more than 20 countries in Asia, which was an amazing experience. I am addicted to bikram yoga and currently I study for a year to learn graphic design and web design.
My food journey also has been quite a long one. I went from eating unhealthy, periods of unhealthy eating to being almost too obsessed with eating healthy. Now I finally found a way that works for me, what makes me happy and it doesn’t have to be perfect. Feeling good and staying slim is not about discovering some secret code or depriving yourself of the foods you love. Instead it’s about making conscious decisions, and eating foods that you enjoy, and make you feel satisfied. So many people are trying to lose weight by eating diet foods, diet sodas and low calorie, low carb foods. Those foods may have zero calories, but they have tons of chemicals and toxins that will not make you feel good inside and out. They will diminish your natural beauty because they are not natural. Eating should be a way to nurture and energize yourself, it is not supposed to be not be stressful.
Feed yourself healthy, living & nurturing foods but importantly, also feed yourself lots of love, fun & pleasure.
I hope to inspire you, also when things are not ideal, by sharing my finds online that are about all kinds of things that are good for you.
Hi Sophie,
You look radiant in the above picture! Perhaps due to your good sense of diet and positive outlook in life?
Just curious, was that photo taken in Singapore?
Warmest regards.
Thank you so much! And yes that photo was taken in Singapore, wow good eye 🙂
Amazing blog i can say…..and thank you so much for liking my posts although i have much more work to do. I didn’t realize that others could see it.
Thank you and keep on blogging !!!! 😉
P.S. Really !!NICE work !!!! 😉
Cool blog Sophie! Thanks for liking my post 🙂 I saw this post on Singapore and got excited, because I spent a semester studying in Singapore and also had the opportunity to travel around Asia… had to be one of the best times of my life so far, and I’m 24 too!
Thats funny, I spend some time studying in Singapore too, after that was when I did some of my travelling and it was the best time of my life too! It was great to meet so many people from all around the world in Singapore and being part of so many international students 🙂 When did you study there?
Wow ! you have been working on your blog for some time, It is great to see someone with useful information in their blog for a change.
Hi Sophie!
I’m impressed with your article and effort to put the word out there regarding how we speak to ourselves. I come across a therapy task years ago which involves looking at your 5-year-old self and talking to him/ her in an encouraging manner. Our memory from each moment lives and breathes.
Also, thank you for liking my post “Write it down and move on.”
David
Hi! Thank you for liking my post! Still a long way to go!
Great to see “like-minded” blogs around :))
I like your blog Sophie. You’ve done an awesome job putting everything together. There seems to be a hint of your personality in your blog.

Nice meeting you Sophie – even if it’s just virtually here, hahaha. I love the description and introduction you’ve made of yourself, which certainly explains why your postings are useful, well chosen and so lively! I’m very glad you found my blog and “knocked” at my door by liking one of my posting. I’m looking forward reading your future postings, and sharing some insights and interests with you through our blogging:)
Thank you! I am very interested in the topics on your blog as well, I would love to learn more about ayurveda especially because I don’t know that much about it yet but it seems like a very good thing to get into.
Hi Sophie,
You are so right about food needing to be enjoyable as well as good for you. This is why I love the Raw Food Lifestyle so much. You can have really delicious treats that are actually good for you. Life doesn’t get much better than that! Great Blog. Good luck with it.
Have a delicious day, Ann-Marie
I love eating many raw foods too! I like that it makes you get really creative in the kitchen and you get so much energy back from eating all these living foods.
Sophie, your apple and pear made me smile.
Great 🙂 I enjoyed making them haha!
[…] (number 2) Sophie at dailyhealthboost.com reminded me to say that what I’m saying here completely gels with stress. She mentions so in […]

Thanks for liking my blog Sophie. Between health psychology and yoga you should have life thoroughly sorted. 🙂 Margaret
Hi Sophie: thanks for liking my Love4Gambia blog post on yoga. Just read the “about me” section of your blog. Seems you have found lots of wisdom already in your 24 years! Keep on soaking it up!
hi Sophie! thank you for visiting my blog and like one of the post. i love your blogs, too. it’s just want i need! 🙂
Hi! Good to hear, I love the drawings on your blog a lot, hope to see you around!
Sophie – you’re awesome! Thanks for swinging by my page! I once met Bikram himself in Munich. I mention the encounter in my book , The Power of Slow. Best to you!
Thank you so much Sophie for visiting my blog and giving me a “like”. Appreciate that. Plus, the extra added benefit of getting a new healthy recipe for chocolate pie. Thanks again. Your blog looks great!
Hi Sophie,
What a very cool idea for a blog! Thanks for checking mine out. It is currently still in the development stages, but I am hoping to add real pictures soon!

Hi Sophie,
Thanks for visiting my blog. I love your philosophy on health, food, stress and life. No wonder you look so radiant and beautiful!
Jan
Thanks Jan! (blushing)
I would also like to thank you for coming over!!
Seeing your about health and motivation, i will come here often. I post the same things.
Howdy Sophie –
Just a note to say thanks for visiting my blog, I’m glad you did. It looks like I’m going to enjoy reading yours.
Good luck in San Francisco. wish I was still there. I lived on the peninsula in Pacifica for 30 years.
Take care………….
Thank you so much for “liking” my blog. I have very much enjoyed what I’ve read of yours as well. 🙂
Thanks for the like, Sophie. Wonderful blog you have here.
Hi Sophie!
Sounds like you’ve got a great head on your shoulders. It was fortuitous that we linked up this way. I’m a Zumba instructor here in the Austin, TX area and have just started a group on Facebook called F.O.R. Getting Healthy (Friends Of Robyn) so that my friends who are also on a path to improve their health can help motivate each other. I’ll definitely be checking our your blog for information to share.
My very best regards,
Robyn
Hi Robyn! Ooh I heard many great things about Zumba, I would love to try it. I go check out your facebook page now.
This is an excellent blog that I would love to be able to refer back to in my own. It is in line with my own writing as it is focused on those things which really capture the ideals of healthy living! Excellent combination of solution and fun! You’ve made a new follower out of me! ~James
p.s. LOVE the fudge pie recipe 🙂
Hi Sophie …thanks for the like. I was curious and came to find out more…and although we are of different generations I think we share a common approach to food. It’s lovely..let’s enjoy it and not get hung up about it. Let’s try to keep it natural and let our bodies tell us when we have had enough.
I look forward to staying in touch.
Kindest regards, Lesley
That’s so cool all the places you’ve been! How are you liking San Fran? my MOm grew up there and loved it!:)
Love San Fran a lot! It must be my favorite city (at least to live at, haha).
ps. your blog is so beautiful, love the jewelry!
I totally agree with your philosophy, I will keep reading your blog. Thanks for liking my blog.

Thanks for liking my blog! I cannot express how happy I am to have a visitor who took the time to click that like. I plan to check out your blog as well. Healthy eating is a struggle for me and so I can learn from you!
I know.. there are so many temptations, especially in the US. Where I am from (amsterdam) it is quit different! Luckily there are also plenty of healthy options available here 🙂
Thank you for reading (and liking!) my blog. I’m exciting to pass the time at work checking out your blog. Any good positive psychology recommendations?
Hi,
Thanks for “liking” my post. This may sound like a stupid question, but how did you find me? I’m having trouble just searching for myself, ha-ha!

Hi Sophie,
Thanks for dropping by our blog! We really love the positive vibes that emanate from your blog. Keep up the good work 🙂

Hello Sophie, I am pleased that you stopped by my blog. Health issues, staying fit, art, and spiritual (Buddhist studies) growth are very important to me. And I love the Netherlands. Twenty artists and I had the pleasure of exhibiting our work in Deventer Holland in 1990. I am an avid mountain and road biker and love yoga as well. I am living near Asheville, NC. I will be subscribing and stopping by your blog more often. Some of my art reflects various forms of mindfulness, personal accountability, and philosophical views. I hope you will stop by again and subscribe.
Namaste

I wish you well and happy and hope you will drop by again soon.xx
Sophie, I totally agree with you. I have made some decisions to eat healthy and have already stopped drinking tea and coffee.I eat rice most of the time and I am planning to change my eating habits and to eat healthy food. 🙂
Wow thats great! I know giving up coffee is hard to do but you get so many benefits when you stop drinking it so often.
I LOVE your blog, Sophie! We have a lot in common, it seems. 🙂 thank you for “liking” my post! I will definitely be stopping by your blog frequently!

Sophie! Thanks for liking my post concerning having a good day on a regular basis…I am essentially an optimist but there are times these days when that is just not as easy as I would prefer! I use my arts and crafts to bring me back to a very good place! Love your attitude!

Man! You have one crazy standing bow! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I mostly interact with running bloggers so it’s nice to hear from a yogi!
Thank you Laura! Standing bow is my favorite pose. I used to run a lot, now that I do lots of yoga I cut down a little bit but I still love running. (It’s just so hilly here in San Fran haha)
Sophie, Thanks for the like on Christmas All Year Long. I am trying to eat healthier, so I will be watching for new posts from you. Jean

Congratulation for your writings
Ciao!!
Hi! I’m Ty!
Nice to meetcha!
Thanks for popping by my blog…I can’t wait to read more of your little tips & tricks. Maybe I can get Mom off coffee for good!
I totally agree with everything you said regarding our health. Good message.
Hello Sophie, I am so glad to make your acquaintance. I’m from the Bay Area and it makes my insides vibrate with happy memories to hear you are living in San Francisco. Your blog is filled with healthy, happy, inspiration. Good luck to you in everything you do!
Barbara
Hi Barbara, how fun you are from the bay area as well, I love it so far! thank you for visiting my blog.
Thanks so much for swinging by my blog, Sophie – I too, love Bikram yoga (and wish I could practice more) and quality food. By any chance do you follow the Weston A. Price foundation? Cheeseslave has a great WordPress blog you may be interested in. Check her out if you have time – and keep writing!
Hi Jenn! Thanks fo stopping by my blog, I don’t know the Price foundation but I’m going to take a look now!

All my best,
James R. Eberts
Thank you so much James, I will keep up with your blog as well!
Hi Sophie,
Enjoyed reading your philosophy–quite giving. I like your simplicity articles as we don’t often take the effort to make things simple so we can be less stressed. Reminds me of a quote from a spiritual leader, Gururaj Ananda: It is so simple to be happy, but so difficult to be simple. That’s my life and challenge.
Thanks for liking my nascent blog and have a great and simple day!
Thank you Dear! You are having fun!!! 🙂
Thanks for liking my blog post Sophie. Hope you visit a few more times.
I checked out your blog. Very impressive – I think you’ve found a great way to be happy.
Thanks again,
Gord
What a wonderful website. Given my background in health care and my interest in promoting health through a nutritious diet and lifestyle choices, it is great to see you promoting such wise information (and at such a young age!)
Thanks for stopping by my blog, Sophie, and letting me know about yours. Great stuff!
Hi Sophie great blog you do look radiant in your picture. Thanks for commenting on my blog, I am having problems with my links staying on my pages when someone buys something? How did you do this any suggestions, thanks Sophie.
Being a geographer, I heard an interesting theory that’s actually very, very true- health is directly attributed to the environment/location of the individual and with so many commercial ways that supposedly keep you in good health it is VERY easy to forget. If you eat healthy, exercise, and generally upkeep your body, why would you get a random heart attack much earlier than “expected?” The air you breathe and the water you drink everyday. I also believe that good health related to having a healthy mental environment, such that it motivates you to live and keeps daily life vibrant rather than bland and gray.
Hi Sophie, I loved you site and thanks for visiting my blog, I am glade you liked the content. I hope more people will visit and see that we can make a difference in our environemnt and our health with LaundryPure. It has done wonders for me and my family. here is my website and a great link. This will take just a moment to upload. http://www.myvollara.com/toddsmith12

You are inspiring and love you for your words and beauty. -A
Hey Sophie,
thanks for liking my posts — so important to have encouragement when you’re just starting blogging! Looks like you’ve been spreading sunshine to quite a few folks :), yours is a good example to follow.
I think our philosophies on life and health quite agree, and I too have gone through a Bikram yoga addiction period.
Good luck with your blog and web design, will see you around the bloggery!
Sophie….you have a very special blog…wishing you well…kathy
Hi Sophie, so glad that you stumbled upon my little blog, Its new and a work in progress but I am happy with how its developing, I too am into good health and trying to have the best body and inner strength possible. I love to make lots of good home cooking so keep coming back to see whats new and feel free to request any recipes that you fancy seeing. you can then re-post them to you site if you do. Take care, and send San Fran my love…. I adore it there…. Thanks!
Hi! Your blog looks great, I love all the step by step pics. The sushi post is my favorite 🙂 I tried making it a few times but it always falls apart haha! I’ll try your recipe soon!
This is great! Subscribing. I definitely could use some of these tips to slow down and take better care of myself. Keep posting!
Glad you like it!! 🙂
Love this line: “Remember.. be careful what you tell yourself, your cells are always listening.” So true!
Glad you found my blog, and I hope it brings happiness and health into your life!
Hi Sophie,
I agree with you. Eating and thinking healthy is the key to feeling energetic and enjoying life and work. It’s wonderful that at such a young age you understand this. You have your whole, happy, healthy life ahead of you!
Thanks for liking my blog.
Thank you so much Anne! It’s always been a huge interest for me and the more I learn about it the more exciting and logical it gets.
Hi Sophie…wow, you have lots of great comments here! – We seem to have a similar philosophy about things… I loved your profile about yourself, very natural..Iget quite frustrated by the articles I read bagging natural medicine/berries etc as they really do give people an excuse not to be healthy! I look forward to reading more! I just came from New York – I really love the States (i live in Australia & London) – how did you get to stay there?… many thanks…Ian 🙂
Hey Ian! Glad you like it 🙂 I love New York too, I’ll be there in a few weeks! I moved to study and it was always a dream to live in San Francisco. Where do you live now?
Thanks for the like, your blog is awesome! I am highly into Bikram as well. Looks like you have done a lot of living in your 24 yrs 😉 keep up the good work!
Greetings Sophie, and warm winter wishes from beautiful B.C.! Your mastery in health psychology is shining through particularly in your advice, “be careful what you tell yourself, your cells are always listening.” Intimately true! In fact, by what we tell ourselves (words and thoughts), and how we feel about it, we create not only our whole life, but the world around us too…pretty darned powerful, hmm?!
Thanks so much for checking in with my blog…becoming conscious is a magnificent adventure, yes??
kind thoughts and sparkles, kathleen
Hi Kathlene, yes!! it is a great adventure, and very rewarding as well. Im glad you like it!
Hey Sophie,
Thanks for liking my post! I have a feeling I am going to like yours too. I could probably use a little stress-relief/inspiration (as you can probably see by my blog;) Look forward to reading a lot more form you as one of your newest followers. Take care!
Thank you for following. Pass it on please…
Thank you for checking out my blog. I really love your site. I pulled it up and I was smacked in the face with exactly what I needed. LOVE IT

Nice to meet u, i’ll read your blog more often. I’m from Guadeloupe, a french island in the caribean sea where I own a restaurant farm-inn. Read u soon.
Nice to meet you too! I didn’t know Guadeloupe so well but I googled a bit and it looks so beautiful1 It must be great to live on an island, I always get a very calm feeling when Im on an island & away from the chaos 🙂
Sooooooo inspiring!!! I love your blog. Thank you!!!
Thank you!!
i very much resonate with your blog – thanks for your compassion & effort.

Hi Sophie,
I am looking into doing a touring puppet theatre show in the UK for pre-schoolers, thats 2 – 4 years old, based on healthy eating, where the characters are fruit and vegetables. I don’t supose you have come across any great short stories aimed at that age group that could be adapted. Or any other company’s doing something like this? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Liz.
Hi Liz, What a great idea! I can’t think of any specific examples right away but I do have some experience with showing children video’s of health and the power of visualisation.
For example, there is this video about the cells in the body and the effect what positive thinking and visualisation has on the cells. The children would see the ‘bad’ cells as criminals and the ‘good’ cells as strong police agents. So when the children would visualise the police agents as healthy and strong their immune system would get stronger.
An idea would be that you have stories about what positive effects the fruit and the vegetables do to their body, their mood and energy level. You can think of stores where the healthy foods can be portrayed as nice, fun, helpful and strong while unhealthy foods can be portrayed in a way that doesn’t benefit them.
I think making the fruits and vegetables look cute and fun to them will already benefit children of such a young age a lot.
I hope this helps, lots of good luck with this great project!
Sophie
Just need to click the email reply button too!
Incredible, Sophie, to be so young, so positive, educated, health conscious, & well traveled. Keep writing & inspiring & I’ll keep reading your blogs!
Hi Sophie, Nice to meet you too and thanks for visiting my blog 🙂
What a great site, and smile you have. I agree with many things you say. Especially how stress & diet are so closely related to disease. I keep saying that’s why cancer is on the rise, esp. in the U.S.
About four years ago I started eating all fresh foods, no more canned, frozen, or processed foods. Well, on occasion I indulge and notice how the food affects me mentally and physically.
I started this experimental diet to better manage my pain level (Fibromyalgia triggered by spinal cord injury from car crash in 2007) and noticed a dramatic change immediately. Inflammation is absolutely inspired by our diets. Fried food is the worse! Now I choose to eat this way and I regularly make fresh vegetable juice and enjoy how it makes my skin look, and the energy and alertness is priceless.
Wow, That is soo great! You are the living example of the power of living a healthy life. What a great decision and commitment.
Very much agree that happiness is key to a healthy life…we all find different ways to get there and sometimes it takes longer but the hope is to get there 🙂 I also love to travel!
So glad that you stopped by so that I could read your blog. Love it and enjoy that San Fran sun!!!
Hi, Sophie!I want to offer my congratulations — you’ve been nominated for the Versatile Blogger award! Actions to take will be posted on my home page, http://www.diabeticredemption.com, as soon as I complete the notifications. Yay you!!!

Hi Sophie! You stopped by my blog last week and liked my “Healthy Air Travel” post, so I wanted to thank you! I’m sorry it took me a while to get back to you, I’ve been traveling and then spending time with family. 🙂 You have a fabulous blog, though, and we seem to have a lot in common! I took some health psych classes in college, and now, being a health counselor, I totally agree with everything you say about the relationship between emotional and physical health. I am so glad you found my blog because I can’t wait to start following yours! Happy and Healthy Holidays!

Thank you Brenda! I would love to visit Mexico, I’ve never been there.
Hey Sophie – great blog! I definitely agree with your philosophy of life and food. You’ve got a lot of great thoughts and inspiration here. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Good to meet you, Sophie– good wisdom in your learning path 🙂 Suits your name well! The post you liked– I’m thinkin’ the “pleasure” side of it would be to put the avocado seeds into a ginger-and-citrus tea, sweetened with honey 😉
…either that, or if you wanted the whole seed for the fiber, you could use a really buff food processor, and put the powdered seeds into a fruit smoothie!
Thanks for visiting! And yes I love using the seed of the avocado in the blender. it is super healthy 🙂 Many people don’t think of eating the seed but it has so many health benefits!
Hi Sophie, i can’t help but notice you took this picture in Singapore. That’s where I am from. It is awesome that you have traveled to and lived in so many places! I would like to do the same some time soon. Cool blog!
I love Singapore! Thanks for visiting my blog 🙂
Thanks for checking out my blog! I just enjoyed reading several of your posts. I agree – there is a very strong connection between being happy and being healthy. Since losing 35 pounds, I have noticed how much better my mood is. I can only imagine how I will feel when I lose the rest of the weight!
That is great Dan! Thank you for reading my posts.
Hi Sophie 🙂 I like your name .. so alluring 🙂

Hi Sophie–thanks for the “likes!” I enjoy your blog too. It’s nice to know others share some of these “yoga-ish” values. You’re doing some cool stuff. Lynda
Hi Sophie,
Thank you for liking my blog post. I was amazed at how much we have in common. I have been thinkng of doing Birkham Yoga. I have the book but am scared if I can take the heat. I am in Hawaii and was a teacher in Japan. I also love to travel and have been to Amsterdam once. I just came back from a book tour to London. I have fibromyalgia and osteoarthrits and want to keep on dancing. I am working on my next memoir but have so much to do as I am not as young as you are lol I also believe that trauma causes disease in most cases and I want to work to holistically heal body and soui aloha Mariyn Maya

Well said in your post above, Sophie, and thank you for liking my blog post. People who laugh a lot heal more quickly from cancer. I’ve known that anything is possible, because of psychic and spirit experiences since birth, that we are energy first and that there are other worlds. It wasn’t until I instantly became vegan (after 3 weeks of studying TM in the 1970s) that I began studying food, no longer for its gastronomic glories!, but its effects upon our energetic bodies and well-being. I’ve evolved through many stages and am now predominantly raw. My premise since that time has always been that energy and matter are interdependent. PS I lived in Van Wou Straat in Amsterdam opposite Albert Cupyt Markt also in the 1970s; and have also lived or spent time in Singapore, Zambia, Algeria, France, Greece and Italy. With Dawn Light Blessings and great joy in 2012!
What a great journey you have so far in your life. It sounds lik you have some very interesting ideas to share. I lived close to Van Wou straat as well! Where in the world are you now?
Thanks for finding my blog. I enjoy your too.
Sophie, Thank you for liking my blog. I’m so happy to see someone so young who hasn’t taken health for granted. It is too often easy for young people to do. You are radiant! Keep shining. I’m inspired by your words.

Thanks, Sophie, for dropping by my blog. I have loved looking around here at some of your posts and admire your passion. Stay true to who you are as you are a bright ray of sunshine to a world that desires it.
I love yoga! Been doing it at work on Tuesdays for the last 4 years. Even when I was at my heaviest weight I could always bang out an hour of yoga and feel better.
Thanks for checking out my blog.
Hello Sophie, thanks for visiting my blog and liking one of my postings. Love your blog, very well done. I’m looking forward to reading your future postings, and sharing some insights and interests with you through our blogging:)

Hi Sophie,
Thank you so much for liking my blog. My intent is to offer a cup of comfort as often as possible.
“Now I finally found a way that works for me, what makes me happy and it doesn’t have to be perfect.”
Sophie, I love your statement that I quoted above, because 2012 is my year to let go of perfection,in exchange for excellence. Perfection keeps clicking the dimmer switch on my light preventing me from sharing it with the world.
I will keep up with you via your blog. All my best 🙂
Wow good for you 🙂 That is a great way to start improving your life!
Without good health, life is very difficult. Like your blog

You’re quite interesting. I really like your blog. Thank you for checking out mine, as well.
Sophie, Thanks for liking my recent post “How’d that work out for ya?” I’m looking forward to exploring your blog now. Greg
Sophie, thanks for stopping by my writing blog. (I have a house blog and a media blog too). I enjoyed reading your blog. Looks like you’re really busy!
Hi Sophie, thanks for liking my blog.
I love yours. We have for the last 6 months started every day with a green smoothie. My 7 year old son LOVES them – the more disgusting they look the more he wants to drink them. It’s so satisfying to see him eating so many serves of raw fruit and veg and enjoying it so much.
For 2012 my mission is to eliminate as much processed food from our diet as possible. So far it’s been over 3 weeks of not eating anything that comes out of a plastic wrapper or can. The only packaged food we’ve had is milk and yoghurt (natural set in the tub) so I’m pretty proud of that.
But as you can see from my blog I do love eating out so that’s my guilty pleasure. But as my friend always says “It’s what you do most of the time that counts”.
Keep up the good work from one Dutchie to another (my dad is from Den Haag) and from a fellow Bikram lover, Namaste.
That is so great you all doing all this for you and your family! You shóuld be proud 🙂
Hi Sophie! 🙂
Much gratitude for visiting and liking my post. I love your blog.
I’m into anything psychologically, spiritually and emotionally healthy stuff too and this blog of yours is quite a treat. 🙂
Thanks for liking my blog post, Sophie! You have a great blog here, and I will definitely be back to spend more time! 😉
Thanks again! Keep up the great work! ❤
All The Best,

Hi Sophie
I totally agree with your philosophy that being healthy is about being happy, feeling good and taking good care of yourself.
If you feel good in your mind, then your day should be a much more positive one and you will be able to radiate vitality and energy to pass on to others.
Stay positive.

It is so refreshing toknow someone my age is enjoying all that life has to offer. I checked out your blog and I love the health and fitness tips. I just recently lost 40 lbs and I am looking for pointers to stay my current size. I hope you enjoy all the beauty the us has to offer while you are here, and I hope one day to see the beauty of the netherlands.
That is so great! It takes lots of commitment to lose that much weight. Good for you!!
Hi Sophie!
You blog is very nice! Thank so much
I thought you were some kind of bot when I saw you commented on my budding blog. It turned out to be a blessing to click on your profile and come read a bit on your blog. Good timing for me as I tossed and turned last night until 6 a.m. trying to get negative thoughts out of my head. Glad to know others write about the things I thought I was alone in thinking about (when I’m not being negative). I’ll make sure to come back and read some more in the future!
Thank you so much! Negative thoughts are annoying right? It also helps to imagine a huge ‘stop-sign’ when you notice any negative thought process starting and decide just not to react further.
Thanks for stopping by at my blog. Dont know how you found it but glad you did! You remind me that I should take up meditation again. Its been a while-13 years!
Hey Sophie,
thanks for liking my post, I just recently decided to start a blog here on wordpress, so I can’t tell you how much I appreciate knowing someone out there is reading my posts, I really like your blog, I’ll be following it for sure, I kinda like those healthy desert ideas, got me thinking about some sweet treats lol

Thanks for liking my post, Sophie! I used to live in the Netherlands when I studied at Leiden University as an undergrad. It’s a small town outside Amsterdam. I miss it so much!!!! I love your blog and your positive outlook. I hope you enjoy living in San Francisco. I’m here too in SF, at work now! (shhh) I hope you have a wonderful day. ❤
Ohh I love Leiden! I also studied there for a year, I did my masters there!
That is so funny haha. I met many international students there, I wonder if I’ve seen you around.
wonderful attitude Sophie! Connection to pleasure, self-worth, and loving and living and laughing life are the key .. . especially when we encounter the hard times!
I’m looking forward to some chocolate banana pleasure soon 🙂
Thanks so much for your virtual visit, Sophie. Loved your worksheets.
thanks for “liking” my blog and for bringing me to yours. love your outlook on life, and particularly amazing that you’ve reached the understandings you have at your young age. Good for you. Hope you will find other inspirational ideas on my blog as well, but honestly don’t know how you have time to browse through so many blogs. Wish I could devote more time to it.
with love light and JOY
Jane
I love your attitude about food and fitness! I have a similar story and am working on balancing it all.
Sophie, Thank you for your kind comments about my blog.
I’ve reviewed some of the recipes on your site and I feel healthier all ready! I’m looking forward to being a regular reader! So much wisdom at so young an age.
Thank you for reading my blog and liking my Revelations post. I look forward to following your blog and believe that every connection occurs for a reason. I have been following a strict grainless diet and trying other holistic approaches since early December in hopes of keeping my MS in remission. My motivation is my life and reading a blog that focuses on the psychology of healthy living is the missing piece of my puzzle. My blog, http://msguidedjourney.wordpress.com has so far focused on my back story and I am now ready to focus on the healthy lifestyle choices I have been religiously following.
