Food is Medicine
“To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art”
Food needs to be Medicine before Medicine Becomes Food
Ayurveda is restorative. That means restoring your balance is key. Not to punish the ‘dis-ease’. Disease is simply understood as an imbalance between the nerve energy of Vata, the catabolic fire energy of Pitta and the anabolic nutritive energy of Kapha. Your body will often tell you what it needs and your intuition can be an excellent guide to achieving ultimate health and well-being.
Ayurveda proclaims that the body requires -
Regularity and consistency
Eating according to the season
Fasting sometimes and feasting sometimes
Correct quantity and frequency
Proper food combination
In the correct sequence
At the appropriate time of day
In Ayurveda, herbs and spices are used to treat long-standing conditions by eliminating toxins from the system. Herbs and spices are not just tasty seasonings and great for garnishing; they also carry the blueprints for healing and aid in the balancing our energy centers or chakras. Our chakras can thrive when properly nourished with the right foods and well-balanced meals.
Herbs and spices aid in the rate of absorption, bioavailability and metabolizing of the food that we eat. They have the ability to transform a hard to digest meal into an easily digestible one. They carry a vibrational frequency that allows us to connect to the earth and our source energy, helping us to stay in harmony.
