Welcome to Foothills Feels Good!

Each week in our series, The Good Life, we will share with you a digest of what makes our community feel good. Recipes, Music, Practices, Movements, Movies, basically anything that brings joy, pleasure, and happiness into your life, and the lives of those around you.  Now, everything might not be your cup of tea but we hope you find something each week to try. 

This week the Foothills Staff will kick it off with some of our suggestions but we will need your help for next week and the week after. Submit your suggestions at the link at the bottom of the email.

My Go To (tofu) Guilty Pleasure

Rev. Sean here, okay I know, Tofu get's a bad wrap. It can be bland, and hard to cook. Not the first thing you would think of as a guilty pleasure but after a long day, when I'm looking for a fix, I look no further than America's Test Kitchen's Tofu Bahn Mi sandwiches. This take on the Vietnamese classic is tangy, a bit spicy, easy to throw together on a weeknight and leaves me with the satisfaction of the best burger, but the lightness of a salad! 

Intimidated by Tofu? Don't be. This recipe uses the best beginner technique that you can apply to so many other recipes. One other hint, use Braggs liquid aminos as a 1:1 replacement for the Fish Sauce if you are vegetarian.

Take a Moment: Guided Meditation 

Meditation can be daunting and it can be hard to fit in the 'cushion time' into our busy days. But even a few minutes of guided breathing and meditation can make a big difference in how we feel.  

Buddhist teacher and psychologist, Tara Brach, invites each of us to sit down, slow down, and listen to our bodies. 

Find a comfortable seated posture and then click the link below, and let Tara guide you through an 11-minute meditation (don't worry you can spare 11-minutes, trust me!)

Songs That Make Us Feel Good.

What do these songs have in common?

"This is me" from the Greatest Showman,
"Can't Stop The Feeling!" by Justin Timberlake,
"I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" from the Proclaimers

Answer: Each of these songs makes a Foothills staff member stop whatever they are doing and dance! Can you guess which song matches which staff person? 

Take a listen to the #FoothillsFeelsGood playlist and get your dance on!

If you have Spotify you can save the playlist to your album an add your own songs too (if not submit your songs at the link at the bottom of this email). 

What Makes You Feel Good?


For the rest of the series, we will be sharing your favorite tunes, movements, practices, and recipes with the congregation, so we need you to share them with us!
