In a medium saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups of mixed berries with 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries release their juices, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth.
Stir the cornstarch mixture into the berries and bring to a simmer. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly.
Remove the fruit sauce from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Let it cool to room temperature.
In serving bowls, divide 2 cups of plain Greek yogurt evenly among four servings.
Top each serving of yogurt with the cooled fruit sauce, distributing it evenly. Use the remaining fresh mixed berries to garnish each bowl.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the top of each serving for added sweetness, if desired.
Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to one day.
