Vicky Reynal, a financial psychotherapist and author of "Money on Your Mind," told CNBC Make It that there are psychological reasons behind our spending habits, and many of these attitudes stem from childhood experiences. Whereas someone who experienced childhood neglect may grow up with low self-esteem and act this out through money behaviors. This could include feeling guilty when spending money because they don't feel they deserve good things, or splashing the cash to impress because they feel unworthy of attention. A scarcity mindset means someone might struggle to enjoy the money they've earned and be anxious about spending it, Reynal added. Alternatively, there are people who grew up with little but became wealthy, and are now very careless with money.

Read previewAdministered ketamine is being used in concert with therapy to treat Ukrainian veterans who experience post-traumatic stress disorder from fighting on the battlefield. AdvertisementA study published earlier this year focused on the treatment of depression among veterans using ketamine taken through an IV. The doses provided at least partial relief to many of the test subjects and after six weeks of ketamine infusions, depression scores dropped significantly. "Soldiers, for them, it's natural to consider themselves like a strong man," Matrenitsky said, explaining that the effects of the ketamine therapy allow individuals to overcome defensive barriers over their emotions. In partnership with Heal Ukraine Trauma, Matrenitsky along with other healthcare professionals have teamed up to form the Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy initiative in hopes of educating Ukrainian therapists on Ketamine-Assisted Therapy.

Serving a meal is about more than just feeding your guests. “It’s about people and sharing a moment together,” said Amanda Reynal, an interior designer in Des Moines. “The visual, the scent, the taste and the sound of your loved ones or friends around you are all critical to creating an unforgettable experience.”That’s why taking the time to set a beautiful table can be rewarding — for a Thanksgiving dinner or any other special meal. “There’s a saying that ‘we eat with our eyes first,’” said Shea McGee, who, with her husband, Syd McGee, runs the design firm Studio McGee and hosts the Netflix show “Dream Home Makeover.” “That’s usually about food, but it’s also about what’s around us. When you set a beautiful table, whether it’s for eating with your family or having guests over, it makes them feel like they matter, because you’ve taken the time to show you care.”

Briana Sanchez/Pool via REUTERS/File PhotoDALLAS, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on Tuesday failed in his bid to slash a nearly $50 million defamation verdict against him over his false claims that the 2012 Sandy Hook mass shooting was a hoax. The judge in that case tacked on an additional $473 million in punitive damages for Jones’ “cruel” conduct earlier this month. Evidence in both cases showed that bogus Sandy Hook claims turbocharged traffic to Infowars and drove sales of its products, including supplements and doomsday supplies. The Sandy Hook families have intervened in the case, alleging Jones is using the proceedings to shield his assets and avoid paying. Another defamation lawsuit against Jones brought by Sandy Hook parents is set to go to trial in Austin, Texas, in March.
