Can an acupressure mat really help you stress less and sleep better?
IMAGINE LYING DOWN on a padded mat dotted with hundreds of sharp plastic spikes. It's not the most relaxing thought, but many people swear by acupressure mats and their purported benefits, which range from reducing stress to promoting better sleep to relieving chronic pain.
What is acupressure?
Like acupuncture, it involves manipulating pressure points but without breaking the skin. The practice has been used for thousands of years.

The Science of Eggnog
There's something deeply satisfying about the ritual of making eggnog from scratch. It's creamy and rich, with just the right amount of spice and a silky texture that puts the carton stuff to shame. Whether you spike it or not, it's a cozy classic worth slowing down for. But behind that smooth sip is a bit of kitchen science. Eggnog is essentially a stirred custard, and getting it right depends on understanding a few simple—but important—concepts.

Feliz Navidad!
Spending Christmas with family in Western Mexico while I was growing up was identity-forming for me. I loved the colours, the flavours and the way everyone in the neighbourhood seemed to take nochebuena (Christmas Eve) festivities more seriously than December 25 itself. It’s hard to recreate the experience for my own kids, who have never spent a holiday abroad—but cooking from those memories gets me pretty close.
