Article Supports Food-Mood Connection

The Foods That Feed Emotional Health

On February 24th, the  article “Diet May Be As Important To Mental Health As It Is To Physical Health,” by Carolyn Gregoire appeared in the Huffington Post -http://www.huffingtonpost.com/healthy-living/

It opened with a question:  “We know that food affects the body — but could it just as powerfully impact the mind?”

When I read that, it made my heart sing, because our book, “The Secret Power Of Colorful Foods:  Enhancing trust, sensuality, self-confidence, love, forgiveness, intuition and spirituality” answers that question with information one wouldn’t normally expect.

While doctors are finding in some cases fish oils can support mental health from a biological standpoint,  our book approaches emotional well-being from a more metaphysical standpoint.

Our Energy Centers and The Foods That Feed Them

Our Energy Centers and the Foods That Feed ThemVarious energy currents along the spine emit a different color for each emotion. Matching the color of an emotion to food of a similar color can help energize and balance our inner lives. This is known as the food mood connection.

It’s quite empowering to shop for food according to the needs of our mood. You see the spectrum of colors as an emotional and spiritual support system – you can look at red beets and know they will help you feel safe, secure and stable. Or if you seek forgiveness for something, you might head towards the green beans.

Once you see colorful foods as tools for mental health, you won’t see fruit and vegetables the same way again.

Feed your feelings well!

Green Foods Can Boost Loving Feelings

February 2, 2015 by Patricia Dennis Leave a Comment

February 9-15 is Random Acts of Kindness Week

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.” – Philo
February, the month of love, is a favorite of Charlotte Lyons and mine. The word love means many things. In addition to feelings of infatuation, it encompasses kindness, empathy, compassion and forgiveness to ourselves and others. According to our book, “The Secret Powers of Colorful Foods,” feelings of the heart radiate green energy. You can support that energy with green foods and by acknowledging the value of others. “The Secret Powers of Colorful Foods” supplies you with a  list of green foods, green food recipes and green energy balancing tips including hand clapping.

The phrase, “Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty,” coined by writer Anne Herbert, is an example of having heart for others and radiating green energy. A smile. A compliment. Holding the door open for someone. These are simple examples of honoring the value of others.

Green Cauliflower

Charlotte and I chose this beautiful green cauliflower as an example of supporting love towards ourselves and others. Green love energy radiates out from the tips of each floret just as unconditional love radiates out from the heart chakra in each of us.

Here’s a simple recipe to oven roast cauliflower (green or white):

Cut the large cauliflower into smaller pieces. Preheat the oven to 400º. On a baking sheet drizzle cauliflower florets with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 30 minutes. Let cool.

Check out The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation website. They suggest during Random Acts of Kindness Week we flood social media with uplifting new stories, inspiring quotes and kind comments.  (http://rakweek.randomactsofkindness.org/Home)

Each one of us can make a difference. Imagine what the world would be like if each one of us did.

Feed your feelings well!
