“The more you eat, the less flavor; the less you eat, the more flavor.” ~Chinese Proverb
You can eat in a way that is natural, highly pleasurable, fun, good for others and our environment, (and very much good for you!) It is so easy, it becomes almost instinctive, once you learn how to do it in your life.
The trick is to figure out what you need in terms of your own body's approximate requirements and proportions of the basic things like protein, carbs, sugars, and fats, then begin to up level the quality. Shun all but the highest quality, freshest, most local, organic, least processed form of whatever calls you. Go for colorful, natural packaging- a peel! And lots of green.
Speaking of green, what I am describing is the best buy for your money. You need less food when you eat better quality food. Then you do eat less food, which gives the body a rest from doing all that work digesting. This gives the added bonus of some of the benefits of regular or periodic fasting.
Finally, you are supporting renewable organic methods of farming or local cooking and food making. This is actually an investment exactly like buying stock, that you are buying. You will absolutely get back your money's worth in terms of personal and planetary health and true wealth. You will own stock in a future for everyone that can support peace and love!
And oh oh oh, now comes the sexy part. Enjoying the food! Do it with loved ones, make food for others, learn about the connections from the farm to your plate. Relish and cherish this relationship. A new consciousness will circulate through this awakening network, growing into new kinds of nourishment and love in communities.
“The part can never be well unless the whole is well.” ~Plato
