GM. ☕🫖 Ayurveda is about living in sync with the rythmms of nature. Sometimes you bend your routine to fit the day.

GM Does anyone still eat breakfast? I usually do 2 meals a day--brunch and dinner...mornings are for exercise/yoga... Today, I had some leftover homemade gf cinnamon raisin bread so.... French toast for brunch 🤤 I made the bread in my dutch oven so it's round shaped...the slices were not super photogenic for plating...but it was delish. 👌 #foodstr #plebstr #foodismedicine

GM. Doing some recipe research on soaking raisins in rum.... stumbled on this gem from a "website FAQ": Q: Are rum raisins suitable for children? A: As rum raisins are made by soaking raisins in rum, they do contain alcohol. Therefore, they are not recommended for children or individuals avoiding alcohol. Q: Can I use rum-soaked raisins as a topping for breakfast dishes? A: Absolutely! Sprinkle them on your oatmeal, granola, or yogurt to add a burst of flavor to your breakfast. TL;DR: Too boozy for toddlers, just right for grown-ups easing into spreadsheets. #foodstr #holidayrecipecreation #plebstr #boozy

Him: so what do you think of turmeric? Me: for what? Him: inflammation. I think I have inflammation and I heard turmeric is good. Me: { identifying with how Michael Saylor must feel explaining btc for the millionth time....} Depends on the root cause of the inflammation. Without identifying the root cause, it's like putting a bandaid on someone who is hemorraghing. Him: yeah. I don't think it did anything. Me: when you're ready to make diet and lifestyle changes, give me a call. Otherwise, you're just making supplement companies rich, under the illusion of healing.

Unlike Western/allopathic medicine that has many specialists, Ayurveda does not. Ayurveda treats the whole person and all systems and levels, not a specific organ. Even if an Ayurveda doctor specializes in a field (ie, opthamolgy), he will treat the whole person, body and mind, to address the root cause of the disease.. #ayurveda # holistichealing

Ayurveda says you become what you eat....so I'm turning into sunshine🌞, sorrel🌿, and serenity 🙂. Eating fresh. Living slow. Feeling whole. 🤸‍♀️ If you're in Palm Beach area, check out Naga Gardens -- family owned farm, where every visit brings a new seasonal surprise. #foodismedicine #ayurveda #plebstr #goodfoodgoodmood
