Macrobiotic Healing
Macrobiotic Healing

Macrobiotics is a natural, wholesome approach to life.

Macrobiotics emphasizes on eating
whole, natural foods, as opposed to refined,
processed foods, and more
plant based foods instead of animal foods, in harmony with
seasonal cycle and the order of nature.

But it is not just about diet or food.
Macrobiotics is a principle, it's a philosophy.

Macro means large or great, bio means life.
So the goal of macrobiotics is to live a great life, to live your life to the fullest.

And the health is the foundation of a great life.
Without health, you cannot enjoy your life or live your life fully.
You don't want to let sickness or illnesses get in your way.

There are many things that affect your health.
But many of them, you have no or little control over.
The food, on the other hand, is one of a few things you can control on a daily bases, and
definitely has a big impact on your health.
That's why macrobiotics focuses especially on
food selection and preparation.

Macrobiotic healing theory

Think about a tree.
When you see a tree with brown, withered leaves, or dying branches, you may cut or
prune, and sometimes spray to kill the bugs.
Then temporarily, the tree looks fine.
But again, other leaves or branch become sick.
Why?
Because when the whole tree is weak and sick, even if you fix here and there, the tree is
still not truly recovered, and the diseases come back again and again.
You have to get to the root cause.

If the quality of the soil is poor, and its roots are taking in poor nutrition, the whole tree
becomes weak and sick overtime.
So unless you change the quality of the soil, and the nutrients it takes, the tree won't be
able to truly heal and recover from diseases.

The same holds true for human body.
You may be able to fix by cutting things out, or taking medicines and all the symptomatic
treatments, but unless you get to the root cause, the diseases will be likely to return.

Then what is the root for the human health?

That's
the quality of the blood.
The blood creates and nourishes the cells, the cells become tissue, tissue becomes
organs, nerves, and brain.
So the quality of the blood affects the entire body.
Not just physically, but emotionally and psychologically, too.

And foods that we eat everyday determines the quality of the blood.
Because the blood is made of foods.
Poor quality of foods make poor quality of blood, thus unhealthy cells, tissues, organs,
nerves and brains.

Macrobiotic Healing Process

Macrobiotics sees illnesses or diseases mainly as a result of long term poor dietary
pattern and life style.
Namely, a long term consumption of so called modern diet (meat, dairy, sugar,
refined/processed foods, chemicals & additives) created the poor blood quality, and the
internal environment where diseases develop and thrive.
.
In macrobiotic healing, the goal is to
change the quality of the blood by changing and
adjusting  the daily diet and life style.
Then develop truly a healthy body that disease cannot thrive or develop or recur
anymore.

So the first thing that I do is to
determine what have caused this health problems in the
first place, through a comprehensive questionnaire, visual diagnosis, and consultation.

Then I will help
develop the foundation of healthier, more balanced daily diet.
The diet that nourishes the blood quality.
























The next step is, deal with each symptom and condition.
There are some foods that weaken certain organs and systems, or contribute to certain
diseases.
So I recommend that you
stop or significantly cut down on eating them, at least until the
condition improves.

And, there are other foods that nourish and strengthen them, which I recommend you
start eating.

Then there are some
special dishes, home remedies, and life style adjustment that may
help further improve certain conditions.

This is the basic process of Macrobiotic healing, in order to restore your health and well
being.

Be in charge of your own life and health

It's your health, and your life.
You are the only one who can make change.
You cannot outsource your health or life.
You are the captain of your fate, the master of your destiny....

Embrace your life, and let's begin a journey to a
great life.
