Changing our diet has played a huge part in our physical health, but what about the emotional aspect of ourselves. I have found personally on my journey of health and wellness that as I changed my diet to eating raw foods that all the stored emotions from my childhood have now slowly come to the surface. You know the ones you don’t even know you have but your current behaviours that are expressed through relationships, kind of like software to the computer are seeming quite dysfunctional and you all of a sudden see how you are sabotaging your own life! We have our own personal emotional programming that I have found I am now able to deal with as I am eating loving raw foods that enable the strength to be able to deal with the emotional pain. It can be quite a journey releasing those and I absolutely recommend reachign out for help. Don’t hold it in, it is ok to find an outlet for dealing with past traumas. No matter how little or big. With our youth suicide rate here in NZ way out of control I think the huge impact all the chemicals in our foods and drinks and drugs both pharmaceutical and recreational play a huge effect on our youth suicide rate. How on earth can a blue drink or one filled with caffeine and aspartame do any good for anyones chemical make up. Our amazing brains are being poisoned and IMO causing a huge amount of unrecognised depression in our society. So for all the youth out there who are feeling frustrated, anguished, unheard don’t be scared to speak your truth. Consider what you are eating and the role that has on our physical well being but also our emotional/mental self.
Sometimes it is hard to find someone to help, just know and understand that you have to ask and upon asking someone or something will always appear for you. You are special, the universe does care. I have found at times that it maybe you just need to sit on a beach or in a forest and just let it go. But there are many alternative practices surfacing again, perhaps a massage, naturapoth, homeopath or even a dam good colonic can help. Start to listen to your guidance of intution and trust that you know what is right for you.
Have a blessed day

PS. The word emotion = energy of motion and all we have because we can move and interact!
