Welcome to Live Life in Full Color
A blog by Dr. Ellen Harris
This blog is a reflection of my personal mantra—to live life in full color by embracing gratitude, peace, and wisdom in everyday moments. Here, I share pieces of that journey: the joy of growing and preparing nourishing food, the calm found in yoga and mindful movement, and the insight gained through journaling, travel, photography, nature, gardening, books, and the beauty of handcrafted textiles.
Live Life in Full Color is a space to celebrate a life well-lived—rooted in wellness, creativity, and connection. I hope these reflections inspire you to slow down, look closer, and find your own rhythm of gratitude, peace, and wisdom.
Gratefully, Peacefully, Wisely Jumping Out of 2019 Into 2020!
Five days ago I returned from a trip to India; no enlightenment or epiphanies but spirit lifted by a glorious trip and time for reflection.
