The Sacred Body

The Sacred Body

By now most of you reading this have heard that we are "Spirits Having a Human Experience"

There is so much in that sentence. 

I think about this daily when I am choosing every bite. I think about my body being an "earthly tuning fork" for my Spirit to experience this reality. 

Have you ever considered that when deciding what to eat or drink next? 

The connection between our body and Spirit wavers and disconnects when we treat our bodies poorly, drink alcohol, or drugs, and consume fake poisonous food. 

In that disconnection, we find fear, overwhelm, and lack of magic. This is the space where miracles do not exist and worry takes control like a freight train. 

Why would anyone continue to poison the body?

As a nutritionist, I think about this every. single. day. 

Eating healthy has become 2nd nature to me. I have outgrown "cravings" and "desires" to eat sugar and processed foods. I have been eating delicious whole, natural foods for so long that I am not sure I remember what it is like to live in the back seat of my food controlling me. 

I can only imagine that it would feel frustrating and defeating. Swollen and sluggish. Dull and stressful. Angry, numb, and disconnected. 

Every day I ask myself "What is so enticing with shitty food?".

Please share, and enlighten me. It's certainly not the taste. Overstimulating sugars, salt, and thirst that wrenches the gut and fogs the mind. 

We all know that this human experience brings incredible challenges, twists and turns, pressure and joy and every emotion in between. 

When our bodies are thriving, our Spirit has a strong and powerful vessel to shine through. And those challenges become graceful and adventurous. 

You are a Divine Light shining onto this earth through your body. When your body is healthy, your light shines brighter and your life is in alignment.

I invite you to cultivate an insatiable desire to communicate with your body through the eyes of your sacred and personal Spirit about every bite, the quality, and the effect every morsel of food is having on the cells of your glorious body. 

The more you sleepwalk through your meal, the deeper the disconnect becomes. 

Designer foods are created specifically for this disconnection that creates unhealthy, unhappy humans. 

With dignity and reverence, choose every bite.
