But also the thing I think I've taken the most, most heat for on this in the spiritual side is, listen, I grew up with Catholicism as a frame of reference, but as a confirmation gift, when I was 14, my mother gave me my first deck of tarot cards.

I've been reading cards for like over 25 years.

And I mentioned there's a chapter in there about

If you find it helpful, like tarot, oracle cards, like these like seeming random things can give you some food for thought.

And it doesn't have to mean anything beyond like your reaction to that card.

But the Amazon reviews are hilarious.

Just how many people had issue with the mention of tarot cards in a book by a dietician.

I'm kind of, I kind of actually love that.

Exactly.

There's something to that.

And yeah, I don't.

And I think with spirit, especially here in the States, like it's it often gets lumped in with religious stuff and spirituality is a more religious thing.

But I think it's also about like that inner fire, like that inner spirit, not just something external.

And I think that's what I was really trying to look at in the book.

Like, what could we do to just nurture that inner fire and help it stay strong?

See, I mean, based on what we've been talking about, I think just take a walk and put some chicken on your pasta for dinner tonight.

Yeah, I mean, listen, take a deep breath, drink some water.

You know, if you've got some anxious thoughts circling around, write them down or talk to somebody about it.

There is research behind all of that.

Thank you for having me today.
