One gorgeous Saturday in early fall we were playing touch football on the hillside with neighbors, running and laughing and being goofy.

We all have stress in our lives. The thing is how to manage our stress, so we don’t become overwhelmed, go over the brink, and even get sick.
Imagine a glass of water. Each stress adds to the volume of water, and if we have too much stress, the glass overflows — at which point we may manifest symptoms of illness. On the flip side, we can take good care of ourselves and be mindful about balancing those stressors that we can — so the level of water stays lower in the glass.
Sometime during the decade I managed Food As Medicine, a nutrition training program for physicians and other health professionals, I came up with this saying, and I’m sticking with it: If you eat a healthy meal, you’re healthier.
