This is one reason I recommend avoiding "sugar free" drinks and foods that contain monk fruit or erythritol.

New research suggests that erythritol, a popular low-calorie sweetener, may impair blood vessel health by disrupting the brain’s production of nitric oxide.

That warm, fuzzy feeling you get when you open the menu and see the commitment to feed us what's local and seasonal.
The drinks were so inventive!
Honestly I was a little skeptical about the vegan part - but the flavors were incredible! And without the "fake meat".
I wish I'd taken pictures of the food but we were too busy eating it😋

Some studies show that keeping a Gratitude Journal doesn't offer any benefits. But MANY studies reveal improvement in mood, better sleep, even lower levels of inflammation.
It turns out there are specific steps that make the difference in whether keeping a Gratitude Journal will help you feel happier, or just make you cranky about another thing on your to-do list.

Growing up we used to go around the Thanksgiving table for each person to say what they're grateful for. Research from UC Davis shows there's good reason to embrace that practice.

Expressing gratitude can:
- decreased depression
- reduce anxiety and job-related stress
- increase satisfaction and vitality
- improve sleep

The best-documented and simplest way to reap these benefits is to write in a Gratitude Journal. Yet I was curious to find that a few studies show no benefit from it.

I dove into the research to find best practices. And some of them will surprise you!

This week I will share one tip on Gratitude Journaling each day - to help all of us reduce stress and improve our vitality this holiday season. By Saturday you'll have a set of simple steps to get you started.
