Plan-Organize-Recreate: Heal yourself with food!

Did you know that eating the right food at the right time is a medicine to our body?

If no, then you need to check this out!

We always eat whenever and whatever we feel without any thought behind it.

But food is that fuel to our body that not only gives us the energy we need but also cures our body just like medicine.

After eating the right food of right amout and at the right time, we can see some miraculous difference in mind, soul and body.

Right! Not only the body but also our soul and mind.

All these benefits can be only seen if we consiously eat food with total awareness.

Let's see how!?

1) What to eat?:

Fresh, Local, Satvic and Seasonal. Nature has designed certain types of food for certain type of areas. Well, this verifies the theory of eating food grown within 100Km radius. This local food is mostly fresh with all the 'satva' in it. Also, season is a major element that we need to consider.

2) When to eat?:

Our digestive system is synced with the sun. That is: Our digestive fire increases- with the rising of sun, our digestive fire reaches it's peak- when the sun is at the top and our digestive fire dampens- with the setting of sun. Hence, it is really important to follow the nature of the body and eat accordingly.

3) How to eat?:

Well, that is no hidden to anyone 'Chew 32 times', a very conscious way to eat food. This shows us the importance of loving the food and enjoying every morsel of it. As simple as this sounds, but hard to implement.

All of these are some ways of eating consciously, with all the attention which fascinated me the most.

As I started implementing them, it was a challenge to change all my eating habits as a foodie. But, consistency was the key along with the will to eat consiously for a 'Better self'. I really started this as an experiment but the results were unpredictably awsome.

In a country that we live, we consider our body as the temple, it is important to preach it with complete devotion.

Vegetables or Ice-cream?

I know what just came to your mind reading this blog, ‘Another blog with food in it?’ Well, not this one! What if I ask you, ‘Vegetables or Ice-cream? What will you choose?’ . . . If your answer is vegetables, I must appreciate your understanding and maturity! If your answer is ice-cream, then you might want to give it a thought. This is my all-time favorite question, because it goes beyond logic for me. In words of famous management professor Shri Kumar Roa, it’s a ‘Vegetable Moment’! Let me explain! Many a times in our life, we are stuck at these decisions where we need to choose. This choice is very difficult for us because on one side we have something that we want, we desire and on the other side we have something which we don’t, for an instance, want but we know that it’s the right thing to do. Isn’t it similar to our childhood days? I mean we knew vegetables are good for our health and our parents left no chance to make us e...

Plan-Organize-Recreate: How do we Deal with change?

credit: third party image reference If changes in life haunts you and you are least comfortable with changes, then this one is for you! Many of us find it difficult to change according to situations. This is because we are in some way or the other scared of changes. Some will say that, “Oh come on, I am not scared of changes, let it come I’ll face it all”. But, speaking frankly we all get little disturbed if things don’t work as per we expected them to be. Exactly, that’s what happens deep down we all have expectations of how things will go about in our life. But, as soon as some situations change and we find that nothing is going according to how we thought it would be and we resist changing according to it. In simple words, we resist change in our life. Psychiatrist Elizabeth Kubler explains this beautifully in her Kubler-Ross Model. The model explains the five stages of human emotions when something changes abruptly or when human finds it difficult to cope up with the change. The fi...

Plan-Organize-Recreate: If you find it difficult to stay with a good habit for long? You must read this!

Consider this situation: You read or watch something about staying fit then you decide that you’ll go for a run first in the morning. Why does it happen that some don’t even wake up for it, some wake up think about going but somehow the bed doesn’t leave them, some wake up and go for a run for a day but never continue that, some just go for a week and quit, some quit it after 15 days. Not many but a few people who continue this habit long enough to make it their daily lifestyle. They are the fitter ones. Also, those ‘not many but few’ who make such small but effective habits their ‘daily lifestyle’ are undoubtedly extraordinary. These people move forward from mediocrity and set examples for the society. However cheesy but inspiring this line sounds, majority don’t make up to it. Is it really that hard to bring change ourselves for good? Is it that difficult to create a wonderful lifestyle for ourselves? The thing is, wanting for a change is good. But, How do we make it to the destinati...
