As summer approaches a lot of people are stressing about their body and what they put into it. They are too fat, too skinny, blah, blah, blah. They think that that food or the body itself is their enemy as if it's purposely working against them. They forgot that they are a divine perfect spiritual being. And the body is doing what it's supposed to, it's using the calories and nutrients to keep that body going. It has been evolving for a very long time. Validate it for doing a job well done. Hey, if you are alive and breathing, you are off to a great start.

What kind of foods do you eat? I am very much a seasonal eater. In the spring if you were to look in my shopping cart you'd find purple, orange and green colored foods. In the winter I enjoy root vegetables and hearty stews. Hmmm purple, orange and green foods - purple represents transmutation and change; orange is healing and green symbolizes growth. I've been undergoing a lot of that. And you will always find chocolate and coffee.

When I first began energy work I was practically a vegetarian. But when I started consciously running my energy and practicing my energy tools I began craving more protein. Hmm. Why was that? For one thing, eating protein before doing a psychic reading helped me stay a lot more grounded. I also notice after doing a lot of energy work or readings that I'd feel really hungry. Hmm. Energy work - energy flowing through the body and in my space. Albert Einstein said that matter/energy is never destroyed, it's transformed.

How about chocolate? Psychics love chocolate. Now scientists are discovering the therapeutic values of chocolate. For one thing, it contains vitamins A, B1, C, D, and E, minerals like calcium, magnesium and potassium and iron. Chocolate contains stuff that stimulates the pituitary gland in the brain.

Sometimes we match the people around us. Just the other night I made myself a cup of tea during a break at school. I put it down and walked back into the kitchen where my friend was eating a piece of cheesecake. I was standing right next to her and thought, "Yeah, that sounds good" although seconds before I had no desire for it. I wasn't hungry but I ate it anyway. Someone else was eating popcorn and next thing you know I too was eating popcorn and drinking hot chocolate. Where had the idea for hot chocolate come from? Another student was drinking it. When I was heading back to class I noticed my cup of tea sitting on the table, right where I had left it, but I had completely forgotten about it!!! I then realized that all those other food items were not my picture but I had matched other people unconsciously. My picture was that cup of tea.

Food is supposed to be a fuel to keep the body going. Sometimes we use it as a crutch. I've been guilty of that, of emotional eating. But it is important to be aware of the signals the body is sending. The body is the temple of the living God - your vehicle through life. If you found your engine light blinking that you need oil you'd add some wouldn't you? Or if your gas meter says empty, you'd immediately head for a gas station to fill it up with the proper gas. Why wouldn't you want to care for your body as well because it's constantly sending us signals as to what it needs. Lets face it, how would you (as Spirit) get around if your body broke down?
