## Resource

Psychiatrist and author Dr. Drew Ramsey joins host Erin Connors to explore practical ways to protect mental fitness during the holidays, from setting boundaries at the table to rethinking alcohol. They dig into nutrient-dense eating, hydration, and simple swaps that lift mood, plus why dark chocolate can fit a healthy plan. Dr. Ramsey shares strategies for easing loneliness, taking a digital detox, and prioritizing sleep, including a plain-English tour of the brain's glymphatic cleanup system. Listeners leave with doable steps to feel more present, connected, and resilient through the season.
