This is my favorite “go to” sweet potato casserole recipe for the Thanksgiving holiday and for other, warm, delicious winter meals. You can have that great flavor without all the added sugar and calories of other traditional casseroles. If sweet potatoes are on your menu this holiday, you may want to give this a try and it just may become your new favorite too!
While going through some difficult times recently in addition to the planning for the upcoming holidays, I was suddenly reminded of the need to manage daily stress. There is one thing our bodies stop doing when under stress, BREATHE! Its’ often something we don’t realize or think about but can be crucial to relaxing and relieving stress. Unlike meditation, which is another good source, you don’t need a quiet place to sit with music.
This simple technique is one I love because you can do it anywhere (shopping, airports, or at your desk), you don’t need any equipment, and you feel instant results. It acts as a natural tranquilizer and instantly calms the nervous system. I learned this technique years ago from Dr. Andrew Weil and it has become a daily tool for me. Just follow these directions and it will soon become second nature. (more…)
