"...choosing to eat foods that support life-all life, not just your own."

"....it's about looking more closely at where your food comes from and how it got to your plate and choosing to eat foods that support life-all life, not just your own." Kathy Freston

We spoke a little while ago about staying connected to the sun and how this natural order of things leads to health and happiness. If we are on this path of self-love we must ascend in every aspect of our lives. We must first become more conscious beings, aware of our choices and how they effect others and this abundant earth we call home. It is essential if we are in the pursuit of balance, that we start with the proper treatment of our bodies and the world we have been placed in, to take care of.

A substantial part of your energy level, your capacity to live in a state of mental prosperity starts at the cellular level. What you consume, what you receive into your body creates the mechanism of your constant growth. In other words, your body will be made up of the food you eat...and not just what you eat, but what you eat eats. About every 7 years all of the cells in your body have been replaced, even down to the tissue of your heart. Think about that for a second. What are you placing in your body to create these healthy new cells? We must ask ourselves these hard questions: Are we absorbing the energy and nutrients from abused, ill animals? Are we eating food from a microwave, that has been mutated and is nutrient empty? Ponder on that for a moment, if were eating compromised food that is meant to create the building blocks of our cells, what then will happen to our bodies? Are we eating chemically harvested nutrient deficient fruits and vegetables? These are questions worth asking, these are the questions that will lead to us being whole, healthy conscious consumers. We must scrutinize and research what we are using as fuel for our bodies, if we want them to last.

We must also understand whether our consumer dollar is exploiting the hands that farm the foods and the community's they live in. If our choices aid in the deforestation of the world due to our obsession with harvesting meat. If our choices are sustainable. We have many choices to make in life and with that comes great responsibility to do what is right for everyone and everything. What a blessing it is that we have a choice. Let us make the right choices for ourselves and for generations to come. Come visit us at The Wellness Kitchen, order our Healing Foods and feel the joy and health that comes with being a conscious healthy eater. Let us care for our earth together through the act of our thankfulness by partaking in natures natural way of supplying us with sustinance. And as always this is Sarah, encouraging you to eat peacefully....
