Realizations on food

(Denise) Hi Everyone!!! this topic is excellent, I have seen so many changes in food over the last few years. I would say that I feel the best now that I have ever felt. Never realizing that
much of my moods and sluggishness was due to my diet. I am wheat and soy free at this point, and amazing how light I feel.
One of the biggest realizations I made on food was around abundance in my life. This, of course, (and the of course is for those of you who no me well!) connected itself to money and stability factors. I finally made a connection when everytime I was having to cut back on expenses I was cutting back on food and buying food that was not resonating with the diet my family and I needed. And still I felt a shortage in my pocket book!
So instead, I decided I needed to eat what my body and mind wanted, I did not cut back on shopping or buying what we needed, instead I looked elsewhere in our budget and applied myself to my vocations. I work more hours but with joy in my heart and as I do so, I earn more income, and I feel abundant around food and money. I also have much more joy when I eat and fix meals. My family is happier too since they can also have what they want and need in their diet.
We also have found many new recipes and inspiration from the show "you are what you eat"
it is a bit extreme for us but lots of positive reinforcement around habits and lots of receipes!
If you have satellite and or cable give it a whirl on BBC or go to the website.....
thank you everyone and have a wonderful week! Denise

Fabulous insight, Denise! I really hadn't thought the connection to abundance, money, scarcity, etc. Cheap doesn't always feel good, does it? Especially when it comes to food. Thanks for sharing!
