Harmonizing Through Food

Vegetables and the earth's energy

Recently I came across this quote and thought it was a great concept, but really didn’t believe it to be 100% true. Of course, if you were even to consider this statement you would have to believe that there is an energy or force that flows through all things which effects how we feel and perceive life.

If I hadn’t recently gone through a “detox phase” and challenged myself to eat all natural, unprocessed foods for a week I would still be in question; however, after detoxing my body of artificial sweeteners, bread, condiments, preservatives, ect…I find it very hard to disagree with Mr. Kushi.

If energy is constantly flowing through the earth and all that inhabits, then anything that grows direct from the ground is flowing with “unprocessed” energy. When we eat the pure source of food, we are not only absorbing untouched vitamins and nutrients, but we are feeding our energy. In turn, this creates a balancing effect and we become harmonized with the universe.

Overall, I can attest to feeling balanced, clear minded and in harmony with my surroundings.

Since there is so much to say on this topic, chime in and let me know your thoughts and experiences.
