In today's world there is medicine for everything, a diet plan for just about anyone, in fact we even have figured out diet plans for each body type and blood type. If our great-grandparents heard about this they would sit up in their graves. Society of today, women and men alike, are bombarded we things we should and should not do, and many feel terrible for even looking and lusting after food. What dilemma!
Yet today's main health problems are all stress related and it's no wonder when we have learned to program our minds with information that is meant to scare us when it comes to our diet. Is it any wonder that we suffer from diseases today that didn't exist two decades ago?
Why do we let this happen in today's society? Why do we let "them" have such a hold on us? And why is it that no one sees that we have become slaves to the diet industry?
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.
Here are four pointers that will help:
1. Start looking "in here:" You have every answer you ever want to ask of anyone, so stop looking out there. If you're struggling with a diagnosis, get your answers from your Higher Self. Your disease was manifested or allowed by you for a reason, only you know why, how it got there and how you can heal yourself again. Always remember that you're never given more than you can handle. And just when it feels like you're breaking, there will be a way out; seek for the answers in silence and you will find the answers.
2. Meditate and breathe: In order for you to access your Higher Self you must learn to meditate and spend time with your Self; start by breathing deeply and deliberately while sitting in silence. This may be the hardest thing to do for some people because as a society we have become human doings instead of human beings. Peace comes from being in a state of being, not a state of doing.
3. Use your body: Your body was designed to be moved around so you can accomplish whatever you have come to accomplish. In Europe the average person walks 2 miles a day, most of which is to and from work, going grocery shopping and so on. In the US we hardly walk 100 yards a day because most people have cars and are just plain too lazy and too busy otherwise. Use your body, it's why you have created it in the first place. If walking to and from work is too far or too inconvenient, get a gym membership. Get your body moving.
4. Love your body, all of it, and be kind to it: As a society we have come to learn to hate our bodies or at least parts of it. Imagine the leader of our country broadcasting on national television that he hated and disliked us - we would have instantaneous war amongst ourselves. And yet, isn't that what we are doing to the 70 trillion living cells that make up our body when we tell one part that we don't like it? How can you expect your body to work in peace and in cooperation with each member when you tell one part that it is defective in some way? Say nice things to your body for the parts that do work and the parts that you do like. Start somewhere, then expand as you start feeling the 70 trillion living cells suddenly work together to help you create a body that is truly at peace within its members. You will be amazed at the difference!
