Subtle Habits That Make People Respect You More (5th Thing)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/31443a4c-7619-4b25-847d-b249010abce2/transcript

Amy takes a heartfelt trip down memory lane after reading through some old emails. As she was searching for a recipe, in honor of her mom's birthday, she came across emails that made her laugh, cry and reflect—including a scary moment when her dad went missing for a week. Amy also talks about the concept of “toxic gratitude,” inspired by a recent newsletter from Mike Foster. Hope you enjoy listening and the Cherry Berries on a Cloud recipe is below....you won't regret for one second making this!! 

Cherry Berries on a Cloud

6 egg whites
1 tsp, cream of tartar
¼ tsp. salt

Beat until frothy, add 1 cup sugar. Beat until stiff (about 15 minutes). Spread in a 9 x 13
pan. Bake for 60 minutes at 275 degrees, turn heat off and leave in the oven for 12 hours.

8 oz cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Cream these ingredients after 12 hours. (Or, if you will be pressed for time after the
12 hours, you can go ahead with this step adding the whipped cream and marshmallows
and keep refrigerated until time for cloud to come out of oven)
2 cups miniature marshmallows
16 oz whipping cream – whipped
Fold into creamed ingredients. Then spread it over the egg white cloud. Refrigerate for 8 hours!

2 cups strawberries – can use unsweetened frozen
1 can cherry pie filling
1 tsp lemon or lime juice
Use as topping

We all have tasks we dread—dishes, laundry, cleaning up after a party. Amy & Kat share a few ways to reframe what you’re doing so that you can find joy in everyday, ‘un-fun’ chores. Also, if you overthink, there’s a little move to try out (called the 'head drop') for when you need your brain to turn off and Amy explains how to do it!

Quote: "Doing Laundry as an adult: washing 30 minutes, drying 50 minutes, folding, 5 to 7 business days"

Benefits of Head Drop:

-Calms down anxiety

-Helps reduce stress

-Promote relaxation by increasing blood flow to your brain

-Relieves tension

-Relieves Neck Pain

-Better sleep
