Diet & Mind.

A healthy body is a healthy Mind.

So recently i've discovered that our diets are really a very, very important thing to take into consideration.
We all tend to stuff our faces full of all the wrong foods but have no circumstantial information to back up the facts as to what is so bad about the food that we eat.
Well, I have had depression & anxiety a hand full of times, all at various stages. I had insomnia for 6 weeks during a 4 month depression stint, I didn't sleep for 11 nights straight, then get 1 night then not sleep for 6-7nights... I've slept for 23 hours a day & lost 1stone in weight over a couple of weeks, the only way out of that place was anti-depressants...
I've also had just the general feeling of not being quite myself,
a bit spaced out or feeling like your not attached to yourself, kind of like looking through yourself!

So apparently what is not told to us is just exactly what the food we eat is doing to our bodies chemical make-up.

We are infact all killing ourselves by not eating a varied diet, we all eat a lot of bread, milk, cheese, pasta, potatoes, steak, etc.
What we're not told is that most of the foods we eat are Acidic.
They cause our body to increase in acid level & cause instability in ourselves. I've also read research that suggests when someone is dying from Cancer there body becomes more acidic as the disease progresses.

So, when you take into account that we are all made up of 57% water we obviously then have a Ph value.
The Ph of our body should be between 7.36 & 7.44 this is Alkaline not Acid. On a scale of 1-14, 1 being Acid & 14 being Alkaline a ph of 7 being neutral. We are supposed to be slightly Alkaline to feel healthy in body & in mind.
This is a very small Ph zone to stay within, especially when you take into account that almost all of the foods & drinks that we enjoy and eat/drink are mainly Acidic.

After looking into a few things online I decided to have a trip to the local health food shop, its a small shop based in Ramsgate, its been there for as long as I can remember, my nan used to go there & so my mum does & now so do I.
They do amazing natural peanut butter! But shhhhh its all mine...

So I have had a fluffy tongue for a while... Its not thrush is all I know. Asked the very helpful Owner what he could suggest & he came out with Candida and suggested I took some Pro-Biotics for a month along with Not eating a whole lot of foods, i'd basically have to become pretty much a full on veggie for a month to make this go away...
Now, I had heard of Candida before due to looking around on the internet for things that I could attribute to having a few of the symptoms that can be associated with Candida.

I kind of stumbled upon a few pages of internet that really helped me understand why I feel how I feel & what I can do to help myself.

I hope this helps someone out there.

When I was 8...

When I was 8... my Mum took me to a meditation class somewhere locally, as some dark stuff had happened.
There was a little ceremony & I was given a Mantra & told never to tell anyone what it was.
I was give a ball to kick around the garden for 20-30 minutes whilst repeating the mantra in my mind.

The Mantra that I had been given was 'ING'

I had never questioned what it meant & why I was not allowed to tell anyone, until about 5 yrs ago when I used the almighty power of Google...

Lo & behold what did I find among the pages as I searched...

From: David Boulton [mailto:dboulton@implicity.org]Sent: Friday, February 01, 2002 12:43 AMSubject: FYI - Meditation on 'ing'  transcript of 1-31-02 part 2 

Deanna: Dad I don't like my mantra and so I don't like meditating.  (Deanna recently took TM training with Risa.)  

Dad: Why don't you like your mantra? 

Deanna: My mantra is 'ing' - it seems stupid and it doesn't fit for me. 

After a minute, Dad: "It seems to be a great mantra - I am surprised at how good it is"

Deanna: Why do you think that?  

Dad: "ing" is a very special part of words that always means "happening now" - like walk-ing, eat-ing, lov-ing, be-ing, swimm-ing, listen-ing, - when you put 'ing' together with any other word it makes the mean-ing something thats happen-ing'. Its a great mantra for helping you to keep participat-ing in whatever it is that you are do-ing. 

Deanna: (very excited) I get it - do you think its a good mantra for everyone or is just good for me? 

Dad: I think its good for everyone and if you want to have a mantra its a great one for you. 

Deanna: why didn't they tell me this part? 

Dad: I don't know, maybe they have a reason for why they don't want you to have a meaning for your mantra. Maybe its just there way of teaching and they don't see the importance of helping you understand you mantra. 

Deanna: don't tell anyone I told you my mantra Dad, I will get in trouble because I am not supposed to share my Mantra with anyone.  

Dad: No, don't think that way. If you wanted to share it with me and you did then tell anyone who asks the truth. Its OK and its important not to lie to anyone about what is true and right for you. 

Deanna: Hugging me, then looking me fully in the eyes "thanks Dad, you are a good servant to my good deed - and that is to learn"

Give it a try, What's the best that can happen ?

and then...

In life we get to learn a lot of interesting things, we can choose to look into them further or just purely believe what we are told.

I am one of them people that chooses to re-search, when I find information that I have never seen before I have this very deja vu feeling that I already know all of the information as I am reading it.

I have found it very interesting that presenting the same information to friends can completely either blow their minds, they completely reject it or they're already aware of it.

We all have to just keep believing that we are good people & the system we are in born into has been designed to keep us numb and willing workers.

I believe that we are all on a path to somewhere great.

I have spent my whole life searching for answers and always questioned things from a young age, but without knowing fully what the reason behind all the questions were.
I believe we are a constantly Evolving & forward moving race. We will rebuild the systems & take away the power of the greedy when we all stand together & understand that we are the ones in Power & we control what happens.  We are the people of the world & meditation & love will unite us all.

EVOLution is happening, see the symbology & feel the synchronicity in life, we can flow like water & create waves with more force than we can imagine.

Please have a watch of the below links or don't, there is no pressure for you to know information...
