I went caffeine free this month and have to say the change in anxiety has been unreal. I’ve had absolutely no anxiety all month, even during all of the chaos right now. I’m never going back to regular coffee!
This is so refreshing to see a youtuber who is in the public eye talk about their anxiety and what helps them.I have struggled with it my whole life these are some meals I will be making! I also love your cookbook! Thanks so much !❤
Nicole I love how open and honest you've been about your anxiety and what you're doing to take care of yourself. Your videos are such high quality and high quality in CONTENT as well!!! Love you so much, thank you for being a shining light of honesty, positivity, and health on the internet.
I came on here looking for videos to help with my current anxiety, which usually veer toward the more philosophical/psychological/motivational...I feel like I came across this for a reason! I honestly had not evaluated what I have been eating to contribute to my anxiety! I eat healthy anyways, but I think I need to be more careful..Thanks for such an informative video.
Thank you for sharing this and your struggles, I couldn’t agree more that what you eat and drink affects your mental health. I’ve been searching for the things that work for me for years too. I find raw cacao powder (magnesium rich) Brazil nuts for selenium and anything naturally probiotic really helps me. Such as kefir yogurt, cheese and kombucha (sooo tasty) good luck with your anxiety journey I know first hand it’s a hard one to face on the day to day. Love this video ❤️
Stephanie Papi If you’re trying avoid blood sugar spikes, you should look into the glycemic load (not to be confused with glycemic index) of your carbohydrate sources (:
Although they are less processed, foods such as maple syrup, honey and dates (as mentioned in this video) are still forms of sugar and will cause your blood glucose levels to rise
I would love to see a video of your anxiety story I mean which symptoms and what you did to feel better. I guess a lot of people have struggle with anxiety and depressiol so I think this could help a lot of us ❤
Yours is the only channel I come to for inspo. You eat real food, that is delish and nourishing. I also love the clean with me and self care videos. Keep going. Love from East Africa
I quit coffee a month or so ago and have taken up Caf Lib. It IS good. I was impressed from the first sip. Thanks for the recommendation. Also, such a perfect and cute tea mug with the avocados!
And having PhD in Neuroscience I totally agree with the expression that gut is your second brain. Among others, Serotonin (hormon of happiness) is synthesised in our gut. That alone is pretty convincing :) And if you would like to check out some of my comforting recipes I would recommend you try my Thai Curry. Already making it is super soothing (I guess all of the fragrant spices tickling the brain) :)
I dont know if I'm even allowed to do this but when I made my minestrone soup that required leek, I also chopped the leaves super small and added it as veggie stock to the soup. I think I did it in another soup as well. It softened and we all ate it lol
Can you start linking in the video description your clothes? (When you know where they came from, I realize sometimes things are super old and you may not be able to find them anymore). Love the cuddly cardigan.
I AM GOING TO MAKE ALL OF THESE! I have anxiety at my dads idk why but ima do this! I am so exited for dinner yummy! The coffee looks so good 2! THE PENUT BUTTER COOKIE LOOK BOMB PENUT BUTTER WITH APPLES IS SOOO GOOD MY FAV COOKIES ARE PENUT BUTTER!!!
100% agree with you. I suffer with anxiety and truthfully when I eat poorly I definitely feel it. Just like exercise, always helps with my mental health also. I need to try Herbal coffee. ;)
also pls pls pls include more dessert recipes on your videos i have a massive sweettooth and i always am looking for healthy and less processed dessert ideas
I just bought your book and this coffee. I can relate so much to the anxiety and not participating in fun Starbucks drinks. I can't wait to try your version of iced coffee and make dishes from your cookbook. Thank you.
This is such helpful information and so natural and something everyone can implement!! Thank you so much for this!! I'm completely dedicated to living healthy and practice lots of natural remedies that I swear by!!! Thanks again!!!
I really like this video and the suggestions behind it except for suggesting to still have caffeine :/ caffeine and alcohol are the two first things to omit from your diet for those with severe or even mild anxiety
Thanks for the great video. I struggle with refined carbs and to much white sugar. I love to bake but having trouble stepping away from the traditional.
The link didn’t show the recipes? Also put my name on list to be notified when your cookbook is back in stock. Really LOVE your videos! Do you have a link where you list some of the recipes of the meals/desserts you make in your videos? 💞
Nikole!!! Everything looked so delicious 🤤 😋 you said your coffee can be found locally but is it only in Canada? Also, I NEED your mug🙏🏽🙏🏽 it’s super cute!! Thanks for sharing!!!
yuummm yuummm yummmm. your videos are just the best. love you girl. thankful for you and your positive way of life and your help getting through this time/ life in general haha
where’s the ingredients n direction recipe for fudge peanut butter cookie 😕😕 it’s boring to be stuck at home so i’d like to cook something delicious rn lol
Love this video as mental health is important. Love these recipes and the cookbook and with school being closed I have had more time to look up recipes I wanna try. I really like the smoothie recipes and talking about using ingredients to keep your sugar down as I am a diabetic and that’s always important. I also like the coffee recipe; but would have to modify it because of my peanut and nut allergies. Any suggestions you have for that would be awesome. Keep up the amazing work that you do!!!
Which cheaper blender did you use? I can’t find it linked... i would love a vitamix, but i just can’t afford it🙈 the blender i currently have makes smoothies with flax or nuts really chunky... not even the spinach blends well 🙈
Becky Rollins what kind of juicer do you have? In a health coach and I use juicers twice a week. I’ve a slow juicer so my juices are fresh and last up to 3 days. Yes it’s a bit of work but the rewards are there as well:) been juicing for a decade and happily stepping into my late 30s ;) juicing and smoothies in the morning are great for skin and overall anti-aging health
Gigi there is an idealist and then there the practical ones :) green juice is still good enough with its property almost intact if stored in glass container and if you’ve got a slow juicer. Fast juicers is where I’ve observed juice doesn’t stay another day because of the oxidation process. Hopefully this helps.
I went caffeine free this month and have to say the change in anxiety has been unreal. I’ve had absolutely no anxiety all month, even during all of the chaos right now. I’m never going back to regular coffee!
That's amazing!! Have you tried Teecheeno?? It's an amazing coffee substitute that tastes like coffee with no caffeine.
This is so refreshing to see a youtuber who is in the public eye talk about their anxiety and what helps them.I have struggled with it my whole life these are some meals I will be making! I also love your cookbook! Thanks so much !❤
You eat so healthy. You must feel amazing 💕💕💕
OMG These meals look so delicious!!! Also, thank you for talking about anxiety so openly without shame, its beautiful.
Massaging kale honestly makes all the difference!
Right!! It literally is a game changer!
What do you think about decaf coffee ?
Yes, quitting coffee made a huge difference on my anxiety! I quiet all caffeine 4 months ago.
PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS! ❤
Nicole I love how open and honest you've been about your anxiety and what you're doing to take care of yourself. Your videos are such high quality and high quality in CONTENT as well!!! Love you so much, thank you for being a shining light of honesty, positivity, and health on the internet.

Anxiety speaking with no shame, I couldn't love you any less!🙋♂️
I’m a Type One Diabetic and the mention of not spiking your blood sugar with every meal is exactly what I need ❤️ Thank You :)

I struggle with anxiety as well and a change in food does help with anxiety. When i eat cleaner my anxiety is decreased
Absolutely! That makes me happy to hear. Food is fuel + sets the tone for your day!

Love this video. Please could you do more videos on anxiety and how to de-stress would be great and relation with food..recipe ideas. Thanks.
I dont know if I'm even allowed to do this but when I made my minestrone soup that required leek, I also chopped the leaves super small and added it as veggie stock to the soup. I think I did it in another soup as well. It softened and we all ate it lol
Hi Nicole, I could not find the link to the budget friendly alternative to your Vitamix. Thanks
Ur green smoothie gives me good vibes. Pls upload a video on coffee recipes
Thank you for this, I will try out your recepies.
this is so weird I know but I never even thought to change how I eat for anxiety
100% your diet affects your anxiety! The more meat you eat that is pumped with hormones the more anxiety you will get.
Oh my, that looks divine and so comforting. Like a hug!
Can you start linking in the video description your clothes? (When you know where they came from, I realize sometimes things are super old and you may not be able to find them anymore). Love the cuddly cardigan.
Food-wise, we are really alike! I eat exactly like this and I also love it so so much:)
These dishes look delicious. I'm keeping this video so I can make these. Ty.
Nicole I roasted the sweet potatoes. Delicious.
So relaxing to watch this video and it gives me really cool recipes ideas ! Thank you :)

Yummmmm to all of the food\beverages in your video! I totally agree that keeping blood sugar steady helps with mood
Loved it! Just one tip from an Italian: it's brus - CHE - tta (brusketta) ☺️🇮🇹
Giulia hope you’re doing okay out there 💜

What a great video! Thank you so much!
This is everything! Thank you!
I really like this video and the suggestions behind it except for suggesting to still have caffeine :/ caffeine and alcohol are the two first things to omit from your diet for those with severe or even mild anxiety
What is the more affordable blender that you were talking about? Can't seem to find it in the links.
What about the link for the budget blender?
You linked everything but the one thing I was most interested in lol the cup you had your smoothie in! It’s so cute lol
I agree! I removed caffeine from my life too!
Kale chips are really good
Gosh everything looks so good! Also what was the other more affordable blender you said you’d use before?
That is what I'm trying to find as well. Dont see it anywhere. Scrolling through comments.
Why so delicious ! Can't wait to make that nourish bowl! :D
Love your videos , healthy diet. Thank you
Now I’m craving potato leek soup. That looks so good.
Very good.
Thanks for the great video. I struggle with refined carbs and to much white sugar. I love to bake but having trouble stepping away from the traditional.
I need this coffee recipe in my life. Coffee does give me jitters and anxiety
The correct pronunciation of bruschetta is brusKetta. Ch is a ‘hard’ sound in Italian. Hope that helps 🤗
I don't think that matters to anyone....
Can you link the other blender tou mentioned? Only the Vitamix is linked at this time 😘
The link didn’t show the recipes? Also put my name on list to be notified when your cookbook is back in stock. Really LOVE your videos! Do you have a link where you list some of the recipes of the meals/desserts you make in your videos? 💞
Hi Nicole! I went to the grocery store and got my hands on what I can get!
@Deborah, sounds great!! ☺️
Nikole!!! Everything looked so delicious 🤤 😋 you said your coffee can be found locally but is it only in Canada? Also, I NEED your mug🙏🏽🙏🏽 it’s super cute!! Thanks for sharing!!!

What was the blender you say it was more budget friendly?
What are your thoughts on people drinking apple cider vinegar for weight loss?

Hi. Will you please upload a diet thats iron rich? That would be great for people with iron deficiencies
What was the cheaper blender you used ?
My veterinarian always tells me if I’m making sweet potatoes, make extras bcuz they are a super food for dogs. 🐾
where’s the ingredients n direction recipe for fudge peanut butter cookie 😕😕 it’s boring to be stuck at home so i’d like to cook something delicious rn lol
would love it if you could make a video on some homemade dog food recipes.
What spices did you used to make cashew milk??
Love this video as mental health is important. Love these recipes and the cookbook and with school being closed I have had more time to look up recipes I wanna try. I really like the smoothie recipes and talking about using ingredients to keep your sugar down as I am a diabetic and that’s always important.

I couldn't find the link either
That potato leek soup is delicious
Not sure if you reply to your comments but how long do you roast the sweet potatoes??
The caf lib is only available in Canada? Not the states.
Yummy x absolutely perfect video xxx stay safe 🥰🥰🥰
For the soup could you add a chicken or veggie broth instead of water for more flavor?
Hi
You can use the whole leek it’s totally edible what you have throw away 🙈😊
Hanna Lutz she is not throwing it away she”s composting
I love your channel 😘👍💕
Do you know of any herbal coffee that is not made with gluten? The one advertised is made with barley, no?
How do you manage all those dirty dishes and gadgets? Any tips?
I dont use my juicer more than once a week for that reason 😒
Clean as you go!
Becky Rollins what kind of juicer do you have? In a health coach and I use juicers twice a week. I’ve a slow juicer so my juices are fresh and last up to 3 days. Yes it’s a bit of work but the rewards are there as well:) been juicing for a decade and happily stepping into my late 30s ;) juicing and smoothies in the morning are great for skin and overall anti-aging health
Sophia Pathak I thought you’re supposed to consume juice immediately because it loses all the health benefits very quickly.
Gigi there is an idealist and then there the practical ones :) green juice is still good enough with its property almost intact if stored in glass container and if you’ve got a slow juicer. Fast juicers is where I’ve observed juice doesn’t stay another day because of the oxidation process. Hopefully this helps.
I love my salad spinner too:)
OMG Your meals look so fancy
