2011 —> 2012: A year in review

It’s finally 2012! The year that many have anticipated due to the ending of the Mayan calender.

1/1/2012 …the anniversary of my first Tumblr post of the new year, and last night (12/31/2011) was my Tumblr’s official birthday, which started with a post of a quote that inspired the name “Malleable Reality”.  So for me, this really is a year in review.

I’ve learned a lot over the year & really changed/grew as a person.  As I read over my post from exactly 1 year ago, I realized that I ended my post with my “to-do’s for the 2011 year:

- “Learn more about the things I’m interested in.”

- “Continue to take more steps to living a healthier life.


I was happy to read those two things & realized that I accomplished those things to the best of my ability within the year.  I’ve made a ton of changes in my lifestyle and learned a plethora of valuable information, some of it in which I shared here (via Tumblr) throughout the year.  These posts included: Buying organic produce, skin cancer, disease branding, toxic chemicals in our everyday lives, more chemicals in our lives, toxins in our skin care, the dangers of teflon, BPA levels in canned foods, chemicals in baby shampoo, the dangers of water fluoridation, birth control pills, the FDA and arsenic in your chicken, the secret ingredient in your store bought meat, the food revolution, and introduced a Back to Basics series which included posts on some of the changes I’ve made throughout the year that helped me to lead a better/healthier lifestyle.  You can view all of my posts posted within this last year here.

With that said and last year behind us, my plan for 2012 is to continue to learn and grow as a person, and hopefully continue with the changes I’ve made, and make even more changes for this year.  My “to-do” list for this year is pretty much the same as last year.  To continue improving and building on the things I’ve already done.  2011 was a great year for me.  I still have plenty of more information that I’ve learned and continue to learn that I have yet to post in a blog.  I will continue posting Back to Basics posts and updating everyone on my lifestyle changes & the “how to’s” and recipes, as much as I can.  However, this year, the Back to Basics posts will be moved to SUNDAYS, rather than Fridays.  

Back to Basics posts every Sunday for 2012, starting this week!
