Nutrition Nugget: What's In Your Cup?
Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about what's in your cup, the mindset story that's been sitting with her all week. As Salad With a Side of Fries starts to celebrate its seventh anniversary, this week's Nutrition Nugget centers on a simple question a Buddhist monk once asked his students, one that Jenn says stopped her in her tracks the moment she heard it. It starts with a spilled cup of coffee and ends somewhere much deeper, touching on stress, community, and the parts of ourselves we don't always notice we're carrying until life gives us a bump. Jenn ties it back to two themes she returns to on the show, but this time with a twist that feels personal. So what is in your cup? And more importantly, what spills out when someone bumps into you? Jenn has thoughts that will likely change how you move through the rest of your week. Like what you're hearing? Be sure to check out the full-length episodes of new releases every Wednesday.

So I heard this story, [00:00:30] and it just made me pause. It gave me that [00:00:35] food for thought, and so I made a note of it, and I [00:00:40] think this week is the perfect time to share it, because if you're listening the day this goes [00:00:45] live, Salad with a Side of Fries podcast is officially seven years [00:00:50] old. Totally wild. I mean, when I started this seven years ago, I had no [00:00:55] idea that this is where we would be.
years, I have something very [:Now, as the story goes, so [00:01:20] a Buddhist monk asked his students a question. He said, "If you're carrying [00:01:25] a cup of coffee and someone bumps into you, why did you spill the coffee?" [00:01:30] Each and every student said, "Because someone bumped into [00:01:35] me." He replied and just said, "No." He goes on, [00:01:40] "The reason you spilled the coffee is because that's what you were carrying in your cup.[00:01:45]
pilled water." Then he said, [:So each and every day, pause and think to [00:02:15] yourself, 'What am I carrying in my cup today?'" And I think part of the [00:02:20] reason why this struck me is because we spent a lot of time on Salad with a Side of [00:02:25] Fries going through the nuts and bolts of health, wellness, [00:02:30] vitality, longevity, healthspan, and this week's episode, [00:02:35] sexspan.
gtime listener, you've heard [:And so to me, this story fits right into that. [00:03:00] Stress is often what shakes us. I also think it [00:03:05] impacts what fills our cup. And then even still, what spills out [00:03:10] of our cup impacts community and connection. [00:03:15] And so it just left me wondering, like, what kind of a world would it be if more people [00:03:20] were like you?
arry love and compassion and [:So mindset is [00:03:45] powerful. And my hope is that this story from [00:03:50] our Buddhist monk of what's in your cup helps you shift your [00:03:55] perspective and fill your cup with maybe a little bit more joy, more [00:04:00] peace, and more generosity today and every day this [00:04:05] seventh year of Salad with a Side of Fries and onward. So ask [00:04:10] yourself, I guess, what's in your cup today?
