Why do you butter me up, buttercup, just to let me down?
and
Ah sugar, ah honey honey
[You are my candy...]
And you got me wanting you
and
Pour some sugar on me…
All popular lyrics, all probably written by sugar addicts. It’s not hard to imagine: lovesick songwriter, writing the lyrics as she snarfs down a pint of icecream or as he drowns his sorrows with a wine spritzer.

Remember those summer days that seemed to last forever when you were a kid? When you’d forget to eat or had not a care in the world because you were having such a great time doing other things? When you’re living your days with abandon and savoring each delicious detail, recreating this type of flow is easy. You’ll feel and be healthier, more positive, and more resilient against the ups and downs of your life.

We had so much fun at my live workshop Eat Your Stress Away – The Right Way on Monday evening here in San Francisco. There were over 30 attendees – more than had RSVP’d!
Tons of great questions and group participation. Each attendee got to score themselves on my Stress Resilience Factor Finder (tm) quiz and see where they stood. Maybe because this is San Francisco and all, but everyone scored in the upper 2/3′s of the range, which means they were well on their way to becoming friends with the stress in their lives and not letting stress undermine their health in the long term.
Uh-Oh. Great Coffee. (And is it ok for your health?)

I think I may have just found the perfect coffee.
- It’s shade-grown and songbird friendly (which supports my love of songbirds… see this post: Tweet Tweet
- It’s decaf. SWISS WATER PROCESS decaffeinated to boot! So hard to find… Why is this so great? With clean-body living, it is necessary for me given my health and low-to-no tolerance to chemicals to seek this out, because this decaffeination process is 100% chemical free.

- It’s organic. Yay.
- It’s priced comparably, if not cheaper than other good quality coffees.

This is a topic near and dear to me. Chronic stress paved the way for my severe autoimmune conditions to set in suddenly (well, it had been building up for years, but I didn’t know that at the time), and managing that stress through my nutrition and lifestyle choices has helped me get my health and life back.
