Diet and Nutrition to support awakening

Hello Everyone, I know many people going through spiritual awakening have food sensitivities and certain foods such as potatoes are said to be grounding.

I've tried many approaches ranging from eating mainly vegetables grown in my own garden to a vegetarian diet to eating more meat but I haven't settled on an approach which feels quite right.

Just wondering if anyone has adopted a specific diet which is affordable and fairly easy to stick to? What would you recommend?

Thanks, Jo

Hi Jo, I thought I'd share the only way of eating that I seem to be able to tolerate. After many many years of chaotic eating, lots of times of feeling 'not right' for the last couple of years this has suited me best of all.

I pretty much eat the one large meal a day, with just water the rest of the time. I have organic white basmati rice, organic tofu, avocado, and a large amount of varied roasted vegetables and pumpkin seeds, using olive oil. Maybe a couple of times a week if I feel I need it, I have a couple of teaspoons of organic nut butter - almond or hazelnut mostly. I am sure lots of people could pick holes in this, but it really does seem to suit me, and satisfy me and my 67 year old body, and it seems to be grounding enough without sapping my energy. I have found I can't tolerate any sugar at all, even fruit. I think it's all about following our own bodies. Eating 'healthily' is such a minefield now. Hope this might be helpful to you and good luck to you on this search.

Thank you Vicky for sharing, what you say is helpful. I have been thinking about this the last few days and I think what you say about following the body is key. There is so much conflicting advice about diet so if I'm craving something, my mind will say it's too high in calories or it's too high fat or it's too expensive, etc. I'm going to try listening to my body and paying more attention to my thoughts and where they come from. I'll see how that works for me the next few weeks.

Thank you for your kind words,

Thanks, Jo. I do want to add that I have had, and still do, so much difficulty with diet. It is only as the consequences, ie. feeling so 'ill' afterwards for many days, that it has become just not worth the suffering. A part of me still argues that it's only about belief and I 'should' be able to eat anything without it having such a big effect, ie the strength of Spirit and Kundalini itself is far beyond that, but it is not to be, and I only find the balance to open further and begin to surrender to Kundalini, when I eat in this way. I'd love to hear how you get on with it all, if you don't mind sharing.
