» Breathe. Post written by Leo Babauta. Breathe. Breathing can transform your life. If you feel stressed out and overwhelmed, breathe. It will calm you and release the tensions. About Us Self Sufficient Me is a blog about self-sustainment by growing our own produce (plant/animal), and self-fulfilment by looking after our health (physical/mental) through exercise and slowing life down a little. At the same time, we focus on our environmental footprint and how we can improve our “patch of dirt” not only for our own benefit but also to better develop the surroundings for other plants and animals - it's their world too. Our common sayings... We try to, "look, and see the Earth through her eyes;" and we say, "You don't have to be self-sufficient in everything just be self-sufficient in something," also, "respect your body and keep it healthy through regular exercise." Our articles feature many of our own self-sufficient achievements based locally on our small suburban Bellmere property in South East Queensland, Australia, approximately 45kms north of the capital Brisbane.
Woman Who Had Almost Formed Healthy Sense Of Self Rejoins Social Media OVERLAND PARK, KS—Having reportedly developed an increased sense of satisfaction with her body image, career, relationship status, and overall identity in recent months, area woman Katie Baransky came remarkably close to forming a well-adjusted, positive sense of self before rejoining social media Tuesday morning, sources confirmed. “I was thinking I might just get back on Facebook, maybe Instagram, and just casually check in from time to time,” said the 29-year-old woman whose self-esteem was right on the cusp of being healthy and is now mere days away from once again plummeting into a veritable maelstrom of jealousy, neediness, and self-loathing. “I’m just going to use it to keep in touch with friends and see what people are up to. It’s supposed to be a fun little diversion, you know? And that’s what it’s going to be for me this time.”

Walden Effect: About Us We're a couple of back-to-the-landers living simply on our 58 acres of swamp and hillside in southwest Virginia. When we arrived on the farm in September 2006, a hundred year old barn stood amid a mass of blackberries and honeysuckle so thick we could hardly push our way through. Since then, we've cleared a couple of acres (leaving the rest of the forest to grow naturally toward its climax state), installed a free trailer to live in, and are learning to farm. (You can read about our adventures starting in year three in our blog archives.)
