Stress can show up in many ways - and the way we care for our bodies matters.

Simple habits can help support how you feel:
✔️ Eat regular, balanced meals
✔️ Choose foods that keep your energy steady
✔️ Stay hydrated throughout the day
✔️ Take a moment to pause and breathe

Food won’t fix everything - but it can be part of a routine that supports your body and your mind. You don’t have to do everything at once - taking it day by day matters.

No garden? No problem. A single pot of herbs can help you save money over time.

Fresh herbs at the store can cost $2–$3 for a small bunch—and they don’t last long. A small basil plant can cost about the same and keep growing for weeks with proper care.

🌿 Easy options to grow at home:
• Green onions (regrow from scraps in water)
• Mint (grows well in containers)
• Basil (needs sunlight and regular watering)
• Cilantro (great for cooler weather)

You don’t need a garden - just a window, a small pot, and a little care.
