EP 103 | Fueling Calm – Foods, Habits, and Rituals That Rewire Stress
Description
Here’s the truth: you are what you consume — not just the food on your plate, but the caffeine, the chaos, the scrolling, and even the conversations you feed your brain.
If you feel anxious, bloated, wired, or stuck… it’s not just “bad luck.” It’s the signals you’re sending your nervous system every single day.
In this episode of Mindfulness & Matcha, we’re getting practical. I’m breaking down the foods, habits, and daily rituals that literally rewire your stress response and teach your body how to feel safe again.
We’ll talk about:
The foods that spike stress vs. the ones that soothe your system
Why caffeine before hydration is a cortisol bomb
Simple swaps that regulate blood sugar, cravings, and energy
Habits that keep you wired without realizing it
Daily rituals that anchor calm into your nervous system
If you’ve been stuck in chaos mode and wondering why you can’t lose the belly fat, sleep deeply, or stop craving sugar — this is your action plan.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
Why “you are what you consume” goes way beyond food
Stress-spiking habits most women don’t even realize they’re doing
