029 Eating & Confused: Trying To Use Food To Heal

Do we listen to our body? Or are we just listening to our
consciousness? Is our consciousness conditioned to choose the foods
our body doesn’t want to eat? Does our body want the same foods our
consciousness wants? No one should be judged upon what they are
eating. In today’s harsh world it’s easy to lean on comfort foods
and use them as a drug to get by. At the same time, we kind of are
aware that our body really doesn’t want ice cream, chicken fingers,
cheesy pasta, cheeseburgers, pizza, and chocolate. And what about
our stomachs, do our stomachs want the same choices of food we
want? Do our stomachs want beer and barbecue, chicken wings, cakes
and cookies, donuts, macaroni and cheese, crab cakes and tuna fish
sandwiches? Do our stomachs understand the term moderation and what
our brainwashed conception of moderation is? Let’s face it, there
is a huge disconnect between our mind and body, and many people go
through life believing that their body is telling them what it
really wants when it comes to food and drink. People often think
about what they need, but don’t realize it may not be what their
stomach or body needs, and yet their stomach and body have no
option but to live with the choices of the mind and consciousness
of that person. Even then, that person’s choice in food may be what
they are told to choose, especially by others in the realm of
health, who are also recommending foods they think the body needs,
and they themselves are in the same situation as the people they
are recommending to. Everyone is stuck in a cycle of not knowing
what their body wants or needs. Listen to this gripping episode
about our digestion and how food works inside of our gut.
