“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” –Matthew 11:28
our clients are facing difficult divorces and custody actions, and he tries to empathize with them as best he can. It’s hard seeing people going through those painful experiences, but Walt finds solace in knowing that he and the rest of the team can do their part to make it a little more bearable. Walt deeply values the fact that he gets to work where he serves the people who live in his community, and the enthusiasm he brings to the office is also evident in his different activities and positions outside of work. “I volunteer a ridiculous amount,” Walt said. Among his various volunteer roles, he serves as a mentor for high school boys to become leaders, and he was also appointed by the mayor to sit on the Denver African American Commission. When he’s not in any of those roles, however, he also loves spending time with his nieces and nephews.
Tomato andWatermelon Salad (Yes, Really!)
SAD EARLY! D Now, Before the Sun Goes Away
Ingredients
• • • • •
1 tsp peppercorns, coarsely crushed
1 tsp coriander seeds, coarsely crushed
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1/2 tsp turmeric
hard to find vitamin D in foods, but milk and other food products are often intentionally enriched with it during processing.
1/4 cup coconut oil
• 4 cups seedless watermelon, rind removed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes • 2 heirloom tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes • 8 oz feta cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes • Sea salt, to taste
The most common solution, however, is taking a vitamin D supplement, which can be purchased over the counter at drugstores and grocery stores. It is commonly recommended for people living in places with harsher winters, and although there are negative side effects if taken in excess, a regular daily dose of vitamin D is a healthy way to ensure you have the right levels in your system. This month is the perfect time to begin that process. Vitamin D can take several months to build up to effective levels in our bodies. It may be the hottest time of the year in many places, but it’s also the ideal time to start fighting SAD early!
Directions
1. In a small saucepan, sauté spices and herbs in the coconut oil for 3 minutes over medium heat to create turmeric oil. Take the pan off of the heat, then let it cool. 2. Combine the watermelon, tomatoes, and feta on a large platter or in a bowl. Drizzle with cooled turmeric oil. Now, simply sprinkle with sea salt and enjoy!
