I used to get carried away with taste bud excitement, and instant gratification. I ate things that I thought I loved, but my cells didn't. There are 2 types of "Oh I LOVE it". Our taste buds which can become adulterated and over stimulated, and 2, our actual cells if THEY love it or not. The first related to addiction and a drug like addict relationship with "food" (processed non-foods). There's a cycle of withdrawal, mental disturbance and chaoticness, coupled with the urge to chase down and get your drug, get a fix and either a high or a stimulation, or/and a sedation and a dulling effect on ourselves, our body, mind and emotions and spirit. A low, like heroine, a deadening and tiredness. Self stimulation like ecstasy or a high like certain cannabis, or a low like I mentioned like heroine.

Any drug or addition is bad, and we can be addicted or out of balance with anything. With processed "food" and non-food items, or stimulants like coffee or certain drugs, cannabis etc, there's a super strong brain and cellular drug addiction that needs to be addressed, making it more than just an addiction to say something like overworking or sex, altho any addiction or imbalance can also cause serious negative life effects.

It took me years to get over my addictions and compulsions to processed and cooked foods. I do believe cooked food may very well be the most addictive drug on the planet. I've seen it in myself and so many, and heard many others say the same. You never know you are addicted to anything or how far it goes until you try take it away. Does it scare you to consider taking away your drug, your coping mechanism, your sedation tactic or stimulant, or cooked food? Have you ever tried do it and see what happens and how you feel? Have you ever actually truly looked at yourself and been honest with yourself or another about your "imperfections, flaws or weaknesses"? THAT / HONESTY is the crux of TRUE spirituality, beyond all hype and gimmicks of the new age spiritual movement. It's simple and straightforward. The TRUTH shall set you free. Know thyself.

There is no judgment here. As I said in a previous post this week, BEING REAL IS DIFFERENT THAN BEING NEGATIVE. In fact, denial and being closed are the two most unspiritual things you can do, as you are avoiding the TRUTH, which is the MOST empowering and spiritual thing you can do, which will heal, empower and set you free.

So finally, question yourself, look at your life, your behavior, and look to heal yourself and get off drugs and addictions on all levels. Find NOURISHMENT thru nourishing things, places and relationships instead of instant gratification that is bad for you. Rather immature and child-like (no judgment). Wish to grow and fine WHOLESOME ways of giving and receiving pleasure and nurture, such as wholesome healing fun relationships with people, a partner, an environment like NATURE, trees, rivers, streams, the ocean, parks, forests, woodlands, the fresh air and sky, sounds of the birds, leaves rustling, whistling winds, sunshine and the daylight, the starlight, momma and pappa NATURE, our original healer and meditation. And through, water therapy like showers and baths with essential oils and salts which comes from nature, and of course, REAL NATURAL FOOD and drinks that empower and uplift us.

Dump the shitty addicted relationship, or/and seek to HEAL yourself in them fast, and dump the other crap, and get onto the powerful empowering delicious, sweet, savory, delectable GOODNESS.

I've been 99% raw now for almost 2 months now, 8 weeks. I'm now filtering best I've ever been since I started checking 8 years ago. I am 99% off my addictions, including internet/technology addiction and my JOY comes primarily thru 4/5 things.

1. MY BODY - It's health and the joy of movement of my beautiful body!
2. NATURE - The original healer and meditation!
3. LOVING RELATIONSHIPS with friends, family and people.
4. SERVICE TO/HELPING OTHERS thru my work and overall generally.
5. CREATIVE OUTLET, like a hobby, making things, making music, art or physical work with my hands like chopping wood or collecting wood for a fire etc. My Youtube videos...

Compare these to how people (us included) typically find a rush, fix, thrill, excitement, which can become imbalanced and negative as a result.

No judgment. Just be real.

Hope you enjoyed this. Lots of love and compassion for us all. We are all sweet souls on our journeys. X

Namaste,
Owen Fox
