Our Diet World – Just A Golden Cage?

Can you imagine explaining a 1200 calorie diet to your great-grandparents? Their eyes would roll back in their heads and they would certainly turn in their graves if they knew how today’s society is enslaved to the diet industry. Today experts seem to have all the answers, there is a pill for everything, and even a perfect diet for every blood type. We are inundated with things we “should” eat and “should not” eat. No wonder some people feel guilty just drooling over dessert. Heaven forbid you stare at it too long, you might actually gain an ounce just lusting after its yummyness. It has become truly ludicrous. One of society’s biggest disease problems comes from stress. Our minds are programmed and hypnotized with information about things we should and should not do. No wonder do we suffer from heart problems, strokes or even get a disease that didn’t exist a couple of decades ago.

What has happened to us as a society? Why do these industries have such a hold on us? And since when have we become their slave?

As human beings we have created these magnificent bodies to live in so we can do what we have come here to do. We are meant to nourish these vehicles, to enjoy them, treat them well and savor every experience while in this body. For some reason over the past few years our bodies seemed to have become enemies instead of our best friends. The media never fails to attack body parts: “Fight off your unsightly cellulite.” “Get rid of your love handles.” And on and on do we hear about how we need to mold our bodies, reshape them and even go under the knife to look what others want us to look like. So for once I dare you to demand your freedom back and practice gratitude for your body. It’s your only prototype, take well care of it.

These 4 starter points can help:

1. Start looking “inside” for answers: Whatever it is you’re looking for, you can find any and all answers inside of you. If you’ve been told that you are suffering from an illness, turn to your Higher Self for answers. You created the disease over time, perhaps over life times; ask your Self for details and how to heal yourself. Even if you feel at a breaking point, there is always a way out from under the seemingly unbearable pressure. Seek the answers with all your heart and your Higher Self will answer and show you the path to full recovery.

2. Meditation and Breathing: Accessing our Higher Selves is done easiest through meditation and proper breathing techniques. Start with the full intention to breath deeply and fully when sitting silently. For most people this is very difficult because we have become human doings instead of human beings. Peace and happiness is found in states of being, not states of doing or having.

3. Move your body: You have an amazing purpose to accomplish here on earth and your body was designed to help you with this endeavor. Europeans walk an average of 2 miles per day. Here in the US with at least 1 car per household we barely walk 50 yards per day. Substitute moving your body by finding other ways; go to a fitness center or starting walking for fun; just get yourself moving.

4. Learn to love all of your body: I can’t tell you how many people I have heard say that they hate a certain part on their body, or even all of it. Yet if our country’s leader would announce that he hated all of its citizens we would have immediate war. 70 billion living cells manage the functions of our bodies and yet when we tell one body part that we dislike it then we do just that: we declare war on the entire body. Instead help your 70 trillion living cells to cooperate with each other so they can work on rebuilding your body and keeping your body healthy. Start by expressing to your body how grateful you are for the things that do work and the body parts that do look great. Feel your 70 trillion living cells relax and come to peace with what their jobs are and watch a miracle take place right within your own body. Soon your body will be your greatest ally and your best friend and will give you all the energy you need so you can be empowered and about your true purpose here.
