On Saturday I met with a friend I hadn't seen for a long while... when I told her I was 'living holistically' now she asked 'well what does that mean?'.
Good question. Although I live and breathe for health and fitness (even though I don't always reflect that), I still had to stop and think a response.
Well here goes....
I now try and live as close as to our natural selves as possible. We were never designed to eat all the rubbish that we do, or smoke or drink alcohol/take drugs the way some people do. I intend to eat more fruit and veg, lean meats and whole grains.... milk is still on the agenda but we were never designed to drink as much as we do ! I use all natural products that contain no nasties (this includes toothpaste, shampoo and soaps) and drink a lot more water and herbal tea. Our culture is defined by illnesses that are caused by stress, the environment, fatty fooda, cigarettes and general nastiness man made. So im going back to the way we were ! Im utilising the fact that we have evolved to live in a home and have medicines (if really needed), but trying to be as close to 'natural' as possible.
And this all helps with Reiki too.. living holistically will help me embrace the 'soul' and energy I really am. And that's going further back to me than any diet could get me !
