FOOD IS MEDICINE*LIVING IS SPIRITUAL (INTRODUCTION)

"As above, so below. As within, so without."
(Hermes)

Yoga & Ayurveda
The seasons change and so with them, we too must change!   How we orientate, interact and take care of ourselves, nature, and life must be according to the time honored seasons.  This is the yogic way of union.  
This is the Ayurvedic way or life knowledge.  

Ayurveda is the sister science of Yoga...
that guides us in how to deeply nourish and nurture our bodies and minds in balance and harmony with the elements, the building blocks of this manifest universe.  Revering, interacting, and preparing proper foods, herbs, & medicine from the natural world, Ayurveda has for millennia, been kin to Yoga and therefore bestows a powerful medicine for us today: to live, eat, and ingest natural, organic, whole foods and medicines such that our bodies and minds are in greater resonance with the universe.  How we eat, how we breath, how we live and move with diverse ecosystems,  how we give and receive, & how we rest and restore, are the immortal keys to raising our consciousness such that spiritual development and that of the planet unfolds with least resistance.  It is quintessentially Taoist as it is the essence of who we are to do so!  It is a way of living, an attitude, a philosophy that returns us to the inherent wisdom within nature and its cycles and thereby, to the inherent wisdom within ourselves...

The more we live in union with nature, with our universe, the more we will  be sublimely empowered with what Zen Master Yoda would call, "The Force."   

Why?  This is because as Hermes said, "As above, so below. As within, so without.", the core wisdom upon which yoga and ayurveda have stood for millennia. 
 That force is THE  fountain from which true vitality and radiance come allowing our physical bodies to be light, our minds to be clear and at peace, our hearts to love unconditionally, and our consciousness to rise to spiritual heights.  

Helping to cultivate a treasure house of health, healing, fitness, and conscious development  in their purest, highest forms, I will be writing more about yogic lifestyle & optimal nutrition from Ayurvedic and Taoist perspectives. Combined with more current, progressive  ideas and thinkers on health & healing,  I hope to build a strong relationship between our bodies, our minds, 
and the foods and medicine we ingest in future blogs titled:
