Happy Meatless Monday! Whether you’re staying on track with good eating habits, feeding kids, or having a party, this versatile sweet potato fritter recipe will do the trick.

As someone who has been living with chronic pain for years, I’m slowly learning that nature has all the answers. We just need to ask the right questions and be willing to listen—listen to our bodies, to our minds, and to our souls. In our lifetime, we all go through physical and mental pain—not to mention heartache. And nature has everything that we need to heal, ready and waiting. 

Winter is a time of increased introspection. Now that the holiday season is over, it’s a great time to explore what your body needs and develop new self-care practices that will set the tone for the rest of the year. Meatless Monday is a movement that will support you in creating and maintaining healthy eating routines.

Winter is an optimal time for fostering reflection and contemplation.

Has Fido tried acupuncture to cure his pesky arthritis? Has hydrotherapy helped Bailey’s hip dysplasia?

The holiday season is the time of year for sweets. So many sweets, that by the time the new year rolls around we might be ready for something a little less over the top, but still festive! This is the perfect time for spiced poached apples. Although they have lots of flavor, they won’t send you into a sugar coma, and, they actually come with some nutritious benefits. Plus, they can be served simply and rustically, or dressed up for special occasions.

What is it about peanuts? Most of us love nuts, even to excess, and peanuts seem to hold a special place. But before you make a batch of peanut butter cookies, give this spiced peanut soup with kale a try. It contains ingredients you probably have in your kitchen right now, comes together quickly, and is rich in interesting flavor.

If you have ever been in the backseat of a car on a winding road and started to feel nauseated, dizzy, and just plain awful, you have experienced motion sickness. We often feel symptoms of motion sickness when we are on a boat, a train, and even when flying on a plane. Children can sometimes get motion sick when playing on swings at the playground or when on rides at the fair, such as a spinning ride, or one that has you hanging upside down. 

Looking to add something healthy and a little sweet to your fall table? How about a spiced fruit salad? And even if you’re thinking not another fruit salad, keep reading, because this is not your average fruit salad. Inspired by the classic fruit chaat common in India and Pakistan, this fruit salad has spicy, tangy South Asian flair. Whether you add it to your breakfast, brunch, dinner, or holiday table, it’s sure to wow.

Warm juices seem like a bit of an oxymoron—isn’t the point of cold-pressed juices to keep the nutrients cold? Yes, but gently warmed juices can still deliver a host of nutrients while also feeling more in line with the seasonal changes: in this case, cooler days, darker mornings, wind, rain, and in some cases, snow. Try out these fall-inspired warm juice recipes for a boost of antioxidants and a no-need-for-an-extra-sweater guarantee.
