If you feel like your mind needs some extra TLC these days, you’re not alone.  Once upon a time, our life was . . . different. In fact, whether you go back 10,000, 1,000, or even just 100 years ago, our day-to-day tasks and mental demands were a far cry from what they are today. For most of human history, our “schedule” has primarily revolved around things of non-negotiable value or immediate importance, including: Sourcing and/or making food and drink Contributing to our tribe by working on designated tasks/holding a job  Fostering family and group relations ..read more

“Sorry … what did you say your name was again?” “Hang on … I just lost my train of thought.” “I’m overwhelmed with so much to do … and yet I feel stuck and can’t do a thing.” Most of us have experienced at least some form of poor brain performance at one point. Still, we often feel helpless and alone in our struggle. What’s more, any decline in cognitive abilities can result in frustrating minor inconveniences on up to debilitating consequences, with symptoms that might include ..read more

Pink frosted cupcakes. Bright green smoothies. Bubbly blue cocktails. Who doesn’t love the lure of vividly-colored foods? Using colors to enhance the visual appeal of our foods is nothing new, but that’s not to say all of our modern applications have been exactly what you’d call a smooth process. Though natural, plant-based dyes have been used for millennia around the world, it’s synthetic hues that have dominated our modern food industry as an inexpensive means to produce bright, consistent colors. And this pervasive use of artificial additives is certainly not without controversy: from the ..read more

Keeping meals low-key is the subscribed vibe of summer, and few dishes do it better than kabobs. (Food-on-a-stick always equals fun, right?). Once assembled in advance, kabobs grill up in mere minutes, and delight even picky eaters with a colorful lineup of tasty morsels, meant to be enjoyed one at a time. Although kabobs don’t always have the healthiest reputation traditionally, there are two ways to make kabobs a more energizing meal (and not one that makes you feel heavy or sleepy after you finish a couple of skewers). First, using vegetables as the ingredient base for kabobs makes for a s ..read more

Few things are more synonymous with summertime than sinking your teeth into a fragrant, steaming corn on the cob, fresh off the grill. And while some purists claim corn needs absolutely no additions, I beg to differ. Subtle enhancements can take a good corn on the cob and turn it into a treat you can’t bear to put down. Here’s everything you need to know on how to make this seasonal staple better than ever:  Method Matters: Before we dive into the accoutrements, let’s take a quick look at corn-cooking 101.

With warm days in the forecast, weekends booked up with outdoor plans, and the season’s wardrobe sliding into minimalist mode, summer is an exuberant season that loves to deliver the happy vibes. But while all the fun in the sun is nourishing for the soul, the truth is our skin isn’t always as pleased. A kiss of sunshine is healthy – essential even, with its vitamin D benefits – yet extended sun exposure can become an expedited ticket to topical aging, and sometimes even inducing more serious consequences, like skin cancer. So, what’s a sun-worshiper to do? Quality natural sunscreens are undo ..read more

In case there was any doubt, writing a cookbook is an abundant time in the kitchen. There’s ideas to be explored, recipes to created, foods to shoot photos of, and retests to make for Guinea pigs (aka friends and family, of course!). My experience with my last cookbook, Superfood Soups, was certainly no different: we were certainly very grateful to enjoy such an edible plethora for the year during its creation. But over time, it’s always interesting which recipes from such an extensive project make their way to the subjective “top.” Interestingly, the most popular book recipes often vary for ..read more

Habits are powerful. Habits can be positive, like meditating, or habits can be negative, like smoking. Habits may consist of large or small activities, ranging from hopping on a long bike route every morning before work, to brushing your teeth each night before going to bed. But what all habits have in common is frequency. And it’s this repetition in which they are practiced that shapes our lifestyle … and, inevitably, the outcomes of our lifestyle, too.  So what makes habits so … well … habitual? You can thank the constitution of your brain for that one. Because your brain has so many t ..read more
