Food for Healing – a New Perspective

Food for Healing – a New Perspective

© Pema Preserve – Health & Healing Resort, India

Most of us look at food as a source of nutrients to nourish the body. We eat 3-4 times a day. Yet we are not mindful of what we eat and how we eat in our modern busy lives.

Consuming food with ‘Prana’ gives extra nourishment to the body.

Going deeper into the field of naturopathy, I started looking at the food we eat as much more than just sustenance. I came to understand all food contains a life force called “Prana”. An awareness of the right eating and cooking habits helps preserve this life force. One may start to realize and appreciate the inherent healing properties of food.

 

Thy Food is Thy Medicine

healthy food

This paradigm shift, of looking at food as medicine, happened because of my exposure to naturopathy and especially meeting DR S.N Murthy who is a pioneer in this field with 45 years of experience. For every disease naturopathy doctors look at natural and organic foods for their healing properties. For every disease the food protocol is carefully designed and put forward from a healing perspective. It is with a sense of wonderment I look, when day after day people are healed by what they eat. Especially with lifestyle diseases like diabetes, hypertension etc which have become so prevalent these days.

Naturopathy (Nature Cure) firmly believes ‘Thy Food is Thy Medicine’ and as such treats chronic diseases with food in combination with natural therapies like hydrotherapy, acupuncture, massages, packs etc. There are about 85 such natural therapies. Naturopathy also works on the principle of body’s ability to heal itself, not to just suppress the symptoms but to detox and treat the underlying cause.

It is imperative that we understand our gut and ensure its smooth operation.

The latest research on gut biome shows that the food we eat impacts our gut health and our gut health is a big part of determining overall health. From energy production to hormone balance, skin health to mental health, and even toxin and waste elimination. Our gut breaks down food and absorbs nutrients for all these functions.

 

Naturopathy

Naturopathic cleansing with enemas, colon hydrotherapy in a naturopathy resort such as Pema ensures a healthy gut. Along with, the food prescribed by our doctors rebalances the gut biome.

Listening to our body is the first step to awareness.

Our bodies continuously give out signals telling us when certain foods work well for us and when they don’t. This communication can be our bowel movements, hunger grumbles bloating, energy levels and many more.

We at Pema, a naturopathy resort take particular care to look at food holistically- for its nutritive value as well as for its healing detoxifying and rejuvenating properties.

That health food cannot be appetising and a gastronomic delight as well seems a misnomer. The images say it all!!

How mindful are you?❤️ When we are mindful, How mindful are you?❤️ 

When we are mindful, we are fully present in every moment and we give our very best. We are no longer dependent on what others think of us, because we have recognized who we really are.

We cannot find the key to happiness in suppression nor in the realization of what our minds produce in terms of ideas and desires. It is the spark of mindfulness that can ignite the light of understanding in us.

✨Today’s article (link in bio) reflects on how the practice of mindfulness can help you to calm your fears, thoughts and emotions.

Have you ever been lucky enough to experience a sa Have you ever been lucky enough to experience a sacred ceremony led by a shaman; the people who use the forces of nature and universal alignments for healing purposes and ceremonies?

Shamans are found in most of the indigenous cultures, such as Native American tribes (i.e. Aumatas, Mapuches, Lakotas, Hopis), in some Buddhism traditions or the Beduins in Africa. They are the healers and in many circumstances the spiritual leaders.

In most traditions the ceremonies are based on four or five elements, highlighted in today's article by @christelle.chopard which provides an introduction to Shamanism (link in bio).

"We are busy in relationships with others, but wha "We are busy in relationships with others, but what about creating a relationship with our own thoughts?" - Claudia Roth. 

Are you exhausted from over-thinking everything, in particular your relationships with others? 

Most days and most of the time, our minds chatter. One minute we are happy, and the next we can feel irritated, upset, anxious or fearful. 

Thoughts arrive, and we are forever subject to their force, living our days and nights as slaves to our thoughts.

Today's Food For Your Soul article by @claudiaroth (link in bio) explores how to break-free from this suffering and shares tips for what to do when you feel overwhelmed.

How often do you unleash your creativity? Allowing ourselves to be creative can help us in the quest to live a joyful, balanced life.

Art and creativity is a deeply grounding practice. When we create, we feel with our body. We can play, get messy with materials, make things, create pieces of art with our hands. You are in the moment, enjoying the freedom to play and connect with your essential self. And this is a deeply nourishing joy.

Today's article by @isabelle__issa (link in bio) reflects on how to bring more creativity into your life.
