We are only human. How can we pass up things that are so enticing, so delicious, so addictive, when they surround us, perhaps at a moment of weakness?
Here are some of my food vices:
- Cinnamon Toast
- Guacamole
- Swiss Cake Rolls
- Bagels w/ Lox Cream Cheese
- Good Red Wine
Many people eat chocolate when it’s available. Others cannot say no to potato chips (ooh, those could be on my list too). Some people appreciate rich foods in very small amounts but generally don’t have problems. Kudos to those people!
What are your vices? Do you have ways of avoiding giving in to the dark pleasure? Are you doing a great job balancing yin and yang?
Unfortunately, I don’t have a magic elixir to avoid getting sucked in. But I do understand how it happens to me, and the energetics of the foods I eat.
Soon, I will offer a course to explain some of this, and we can explore together how to make progress in keeping ourselves and our loved ones in a healthier place.
Does that sound good?
What is wrong with guacamole?
Guacamole is fine, in small amounts, in a temperate climate, in the Spring and Summer. Too much guacamole, in the winter, or especially raw avocado, is weakening for the body. That according to macrobiotics, and I’ve experienced it to be true. The energetics of food is real.
