About six weeks ago, I (mostly) weaned myself off of caffeine and I can’t say that I miss it too much. I still feel like I need to have (decaf) coffee in the morning and still have (decaf) tea at night.

The benefits are that I sleep much better, wake up feeling more refreshed, am far less irritable and critical and much less forgetful. I’ll indulge in the occasional coffee at a local coffee house from time to time, but for the most part, am caffeine free.

I’ve read numerous articles and studies that caffeine is both good/ill but overall, am glad I quit.

What healthy habits have you incorporated into your life within the past year? How did you maintain them?
