AUDRIS!!! Wow I was thinking about you this week -- with the Plan gearing up -- and wondering how you were. I'm so glad you're back and blogging! I've missed you! Best wishes for 2011 -- as we continue down the path. xoxo

Joanne Duffy commented on Audris Wong's blog post 'One Year Later'

Welcome back Audris! I remember you well from last year ~ so glad to hear that this little community was so helpful for you in 2010. In turn I can say that reading your words last year were of year-long benefit to me... I look forward to another…

Cindy McCain Hamrick commented on Audris Wong's blog post 'One Year Later'

Very inspiring! So I think you nailed it for me - it's been difficult for me to understand why this program is so appealing to me and I know this sounds silly but it never occurred to me that I needed to plan and take the time…

Audris Wong commented on Audris Wong's blog post 'One Year Later'

Thank you! That was a lovely comment to read. I wasn't sure if I should come back and be all "look at me!" but at the same time I think helping others find some hope and inspiration is as gratifying as achieving it…

Anna Salerno commented on Audris Wong's blog post 'One Year Later'

What a great post! It's made me think a lot about where I am as well, and I admire you for putting it out there and above all for finding that kind of... happiness? contentment? fulfillment? Whatever it is, keep up the good work, and I hope to…

One Year Later

Ah, New Year’s Eve. A year ago, I was looking over the Whole Life Action Plan and thinking, what the hell have I gotten myself into, agreeing to blog? I was hopeful and excited, a little anxious wondering what I was supposed to write about, if I was going to be able to do “it” right, and that “it” could have been anything from detoxing for four days, to not embarrassing myself in this blog, to…See More

Good luck with all your goals! This was such a hopeful and gentle post, and I'm really glad to see you keep up with your blogging. I'll miss your posts, definitely. I haven't given up bread, but I do plan on giving up muffins, scones,…

Audris Wong commented on chaya goldberg's blog post '2 Weeks Detoxing?'

Hi Chaya -- if you check out Dr. Junger's book Clean, you'll see you can go a little longer on strict detox, up to 4 weeks. I'm finding that even post official detox, I still really love the way I feel if I have a smoothie instead of…

Audris Wong commented on Caroline Conway's blog post 'A Late Recap of the Plan'

Caroline, I took a few weeks off from the whole community but I'm so glad you continued to post! About a week after I saw you I was sitting with some friends chatting, and I started laughing so hard about something I became completely…

Congratulations! I love what you said -- "I did everything I said I would do". That's such a great feeling to have!

Food, movement, rest, and love -- it's so true! We need all of them for nourishment, and when we get them, our hearts and lives are so full. Good luck with everything; I have enjoyed your blog so much!

Great photo! I had an amazing time yesterday on the set, and meeting you all and the other bloggers was so wonderful. Thank you again!

Well, it is an investment...but consider a trainer. I did--and I tell you, following an adorable young thing around the gym is a great way to stay interested in strength training!

This was my husband’s idea of support during the Plan:

But to be fair, this was also:

He didn’t do the Plan with me, and that’s for the best. I don’t like being nagged, and if he’d cheated, I would have too. But he did listen when I whined about how hungry I was, how much I hated my last post, how I didn’t have time to meditate. I’m pretty sure he’s glad it’s almost over, despite the Plan’s… Read more

Taking Time to Recharge

My Christmas tree is still up.

That’s my 5-year-old in front of it. As these posts wind down, I felt like she needed to make an appearance!

Nearing the end of Week 4, I have indeed made soup (butternut squash, which came out very well, yay!) and went to hot yoga (which was just yoga in a hot room. I think I was expecting something more … primal.) I have journaled, eaten well, reflected, and focused on gratitude. And I have been… Read more

Putting this list together was very enjoyable, taking stock of all that went well these past few weeks.

{My very first meal on the Action Plan! Like Leah, I love the mango smoothie.}

Definitely carrying forward:

Detox! It was definitely a knock-you-down, grit-your-teeth challenge some days, particularly early on during coffee… Read more

Re: Stress Management -- OMG the chart is amazing! I fully endorse this practice! Structure is important, I treat The Plan with the same logic. I'm sorry you don't feel entirely at east at home -- it reminded me of that commercial of the two kids quietly working at the table with their Mom looking on and when she hears Daddy pulling up she throws around flour and plates and after he walks in she says, "I just need an hour." Is there a room in your house you can go to and be undisturbed? Virginia Woolf style -- A Room Of One's Own.
