How to Use Food to Boost Your Mood

Hi, I’m Mary Beth and I’m exhausted by the news.

I’m also an emotional eater. This isn’t that much of a confession, because I believe that all eating is emotional eating. Recently, I’ve embraced and honored that how I feel affects how I eat, and how I eat affects how I feel. But that is a potential problem given that, with climate change and politics and virus outbreak and locust swarms (locusts!) in East Africa, in many ways it feels like the world is falling apart — and personal concerns in our individual lives only add to the stress.
