What if everything you have been told about your body is WRONG?

What if……we were able to take a few things we ‘think’ we know about our bodies, our health and living on this planet in general and look at them a little differently?

For, instance, are we really meant to age? What if we are, but not in an accelerated falling apart, memory losing, decline that we currently face…. With most of humanity sliding into home base barely holding it all together after 70 or 80 short years? 

To age might mean something altogether different if we were living in a healthy chemical free, non-gmo body.

Maybe, our bodies are perfectly designed to seal, heal and repair quickly and efficiently. So why don’t they? Just where does this leaky gut, allergy syndrome, inflammation, chronic pain, wear and tear damage come from and why doesn’t it ‘heal’?

What is the hold up inside of our bodies and why does life take us from energetic youth into breakdown mode so quickly…..what if it’s just not supposed to be this way? 

Perhaps, we are here for a long time as well as a ‘feel’ good time. Shouldn’t we feel good, maybe great, enjoy wellness – bordering on fabulous, at least some of the time….ahhh, yes, but we must be healthy first. 

Then, just like nature outside of us, it is also in us. Therefore, our bodies are self cleaning, self regulating and perfect ecosystems of balanced life – always striving to maintain and find that inner homeostasis.

We should crave balance….

What if only water, real food (as opposed to rubbish…), herbs, fresh air and nature – is the cure for all that ails us? Using anything else just shunts the symptoms around, buries us in toxins and interferes with the healing process.

Just saying….

Spiritual Connections with Food - Life's Full Circle

I feel so good today that I can't describe it - but you know what I am also seeing (again) is that I am waiting for the other shoe to drop. It's as if I feel great, so this can't go on for very long before there is some bad news, a disappointment, a worry or a fear to creep in and spoil my good day.

Anyone else notice their life can be like that? It's as if I automatically brace myself for some disaster, because I can't possibly feel this good for a prolonged period of time. So, I am working on breaking this pattern as we speak (another detox needed!).

Well, while I am digging deep and sorting this all out - let me tell you about our turkey. This beautiful bird, gave his life so that we could have the most wonderful turkey dinner ever. It was the best tasting turkey, so fresh and clean...

Of course they were organically raised, clean water (chemical free), they have the largest pen in the barn (loads of space) and go outside 3 times a day for a supervised walk about to eat grass and rub noses with all the other critters.

Not a bad life...when you also factor in the petting and intermingling with my children (who adore them) - they are well cared for animals. And to be honest, I can't describe the difference in taste of the meat.

It was almost buttery, melt in your mouth, succulent and just so wonderful. I kept wondering if it was the feed we were giving them (only organic) or the water ... but perhaps it is the simple combination of all of this.

Treat your food well and it will feed you well - or something along those lines. Of course, you may be thinking right now that this is not a very spiritual topic, but I beg to differ. What if it was the fact that this turkey gave of his spirit to be on our table and then his body becomes part of ours (cellular metabolism)....

Some of what we eat when we eat animals is their spiritual remains, that's why game meat and wild game tastes so much better then battery raised chicken for instance. There is an aliveness to these animals that just isn't there with something that comes from a factory.

Last night I had amazing dreams and I just know they were from the meal I ate - life has come full circle.
