Winter solstice is not a season for excess. It ’s a season for containment. The body wants warmth, steadiness, predictability. The nervous system wants quiet. Blood sugar wants rhythm—not spikes followed by crashes that masquerade as “holiday cheer” and end as 2 a.m. wake-ups. This is where intentional dessert belongs. Not as indulgence. As signal. This coconut cream cheesecake, paired with a bright citrus topping and grounding herbal tea, is designed to support winter physi

I prefer the medicines and the truths that are laid in front of me in the form of herbs, or what we have been trained to know as “weeds”. Those weeds that we yank from the soil or kill with chemicals, can feed us and heal us. The weeds can tell us what nu
