Uplifting foods

• Dark Chocolate (70-85%): Has a high antioxidant level, stimulates the production of endorphins, and can create a calm and connected mood.

• Kale: A vitamin powerhouse, kale has high vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, and magnesium. This reduces fatigue, aches, pains, general sickness, and depression.

• Berries: Reducing inflammation in the body as a whole, berries also have a chemical composition similar to mood stabilizers that are prescribed.

How to make to happen

• Lifestyle not Diet; Keep healthy snacks easily available

• Keep all `avoid` foods out of the house

• Words have power; how you talk to yourself can increase success 'I can`t' (39% success) versus 'I don`t' (64% success), (Boston College and University of Houston; Patrick, Hagtvedt, 2011)

• Ownership and identity
