Most of us pay lip service to the concept of our body as a temple in which our soul resides; until we are sick or aging that is…Then we check our reflection and see how accurate and grounded in reality that heavenly phrase really is.
The magnificence of a healthy properly functioning human body is indeed a temple without equal in our physical world. No Cathedral, Synagogue or Mosque; no matter how stunning comes close to our individual house of God. Our “skin Bag” is mistreated, inflated, abused, starved and more often than not poisoned by a mismanaged food supply. Forced growth and chemically altered food like products populate 85% of our grocers shelves…Somehow corn is everywhere: from plastic cups to plasticized foods which are eaten more than the natural vegetable itself.
Somewhere we as a people went off. We forgot God lives here…in us…through us…and our bodies are a work of art, a fitting temple for the divine. An instrument for the expression and expansion of the magnificence of God that each and every one of us is here to be. I had forgotten, but now I remember. I was blind but now I see. It’s the God in me talking to the God in you…PSST! Wake up!
Vote with you fork. NO FAKE FOOD. Honor you body as you would honor your God’s house, from who you share it with to how you fuel it to the products you use…1st do no harm. 2nd use nothing you can’t pronounce. 3rd if you can’t eat it don’t put it on your skin. Use premium fresh local organic food whenever possible. When you are healthy you may not notice that big a difference, I promise you once you deal with a compromised immune system you notice everything from the effect of shampoo to the energy drain of a soda. Why stress your system?
I’m not saying go dip yourself in cherub dust and become a freaking angel overnight! I’m saying get conscious, make more choices that empower your health and wellbeing and mind and spirit.
