The foods you consume
affect your moods as well as the clarity of your thinking. This is why the
ancient sages ate only light foods. They knew that anything more would disturb
the perfectly peaceful minds they had worked so hard to cultivate and disrupt their
meditations on the true meaning of life.
If you owned an
expensive Formula One race car, you wouldn’t think of fuelling it with anything
less than premium-grade gas. Anything else would reduce its performance. So why
would you put anything less than the best foods into your body, which is an
even more valuable performance vehicle?
Eating the wrong foods,
in large quantities, will reduce your energy level, affect your health and
prevent your mind from serving you to its fullest capacity. Realizing that for
every greasy lunch you have, you will suffer a corresponding reduction in your
level of motivation and effectiveness is the first step to developing more
disciplined eating habits.
One of the best strategies
I can share with you to boost both your energy level and your mood is to get
into the daily habit of drinking fresh fruit juice. On the counter of our
kitchen at home sits one of my prized possessions, one that has added years to
my life and life to my years: my juice machine. Investing in a juicer and
discovering the life giving value of fresh juice is a smart move.
The juices you can make
taste great and I cannot begin to describe how wonderful you will feel once you
start drinking a glass of strawberry apple or orange grape juice every morning
before you leave for work. The best book I have found on the subject of juicing
is The Juiceman’s Power of Juicing by Jay Kordich. The recipes Kordich
shares in this book are worth the price alone.
