Food For Life

Daily food provides fuel and energy for any activity we pursue. What we put into our bodies influences the quality of our lives. "You are what you eat" provides a metaphoric reminder that food choices influence all of our personal actions. "Be" in our shared dream of vital health and inner happiness. "Great Life" implies expansiveness. Macrobiotic eating embraces the view that because of our position at the top of the food chain, humans are the only species on earth that have the luxury of eating any food we choose. There is literally nothing on this planet earth that is forbidden in the macrobiotic diet. Perhaps those of you who have read or heard about macrobiotics may be surprised by this statement. It's the "You Can Eat Anything You Want" diet, that includes an awareness of consequences related to the ups and downs that result from food and lifestyle choices.
