FOOD YOGA – Nourishing the Soul is available!
FOOD YOGA – Nourishing the Soul is officially available as an eBook today, January 1st, 2012!
FOOD YOGA – Nourishing the Soul is a completely new approach to holistic living. Until now, books on healthy living and nutrition have focused on the mechanics of health and happiness, and in doing so, have promoted philosophies and plans that in one way or another have alienated vast numbers of people. As a result, despite volumes of literature and research there is no consensus on what diet or mode of living is best. What they have all failed to identify is one underlying truth that connects us all and from which all health plans can be reconciled and/or elevated to their ultimate stature.
That truth is: our constitutional nature is spirit and we are all spiritually equal. Any healthy living program therefore needs to address the “nutritional” needs of body, mind and spirit. Utilizing scientific facts and logical argument, I introduce the reader to higher concepts of self worth, whereupon the selfish ideals of impersonal consumerism are replaced with a philosophy of grateful, interdependent spirituality, where health and happiness, are not the exclusive domain of a chosen few, but are possible for everyone. The book aims to encourage the reader to start making food part of their daily spiritual ritual. I have attempted to make the presentation as non-sectarian as possible, without losing the integrity of the message.
The book leads the reader along a path of becoming more aware of the divine nature of food to the point where they are then introduced to what I call, The FOOD OFFERING MEDITATION, which summarizes the lessons learned along the way and serves to put them in the right frame of mind to transform their eating into a spiritual experience. The book is a result of teaching The Yoga of Eating at vegetarian conferences around the world for the last 15 years. Based on the positive responses from my seminars, I feel strongly that the public is fully ready to embrace the ideals of FOOD YOGA and this book will provide the unbiased guidance they need.
Joel Salatin of PolyFace Farm, Fresh, and academy award nominated Food Inc. speaks about the new food paradigm this way:
“There is a certain sense of sacredness that can come from our connection with our food: Having a relationship with our farmers, seeing and knowing where our food comes from, being present while preparing it, giving thanks or making an offering, and most importantly being present while eating. Generally, we would be lucky to have part of this equation going just some of the time. The ideal is having the full chain of events working in our lives on a regular sustained basis. This is what the new paradigm of food is striving for.”
