Herbs as Food
"Herbal medicine has been used by billions of people for thousands of years" Paul Schulick
I teach that herbs are food. The process of herbalism as I work with it, is to enhance the nutritional quality of your diet. This enhances your bodies’ ability to do what it was designed to do- maintain balance, Enabling you to live a vibrant life!
Most of us do not eat enough fresh fruits and vegetables (are you sick of hearing that) and the addition of herbs into the diet is an easy and delicious way to increase all the health benefits found in fresh, whole food.
Vitamins. minerals, amino acids, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants are all contained within foods and herbs, not just in those multiple pills you are taking each day.
All health challenges can be positively impacted by addressing the fuel that we put into our body. Looking at nutrition is not an option if you want to have optimum health.
Many of my clients come to me having been on anti-depressants for years, but no one has taught them that their choice of foods is impacting their psychological and spiritual health. When we look, we find that the person is eating a diet overloaded with sugar, caffeine and processed foods. This is a fairly typical list of foods for most of us.
Depression is not just about brain chemistry. Did you know that there are more serotonin receptor sites in your digestive track than in your brain! So if you want optimum health you need optimum food.
What you eat. How you digest. How you eliminate wastes. How much you move. How you sleep. These are contributing factors to the quality of your life and your ability to heal. These daily conscious and unconscious choices have a profound effect on the state of your emotional life.
To really heal mind, body and spirit, you need to be working with someone who can help you from a holistic perspective. LightBalance Counseling offers a unique approach and familiarity with all facets of your health and healing.
