Macrobiotics is a life style. It’s basis is to develop an awareness of the foods that best fit the life we want to lead. It requires tuning into the natural life forces that govern this planet, for instance the seasons, or the energy produced by vegetable foods and animal foods. It requires an interest in how our body evolves naturally and how we can best support our biological, emotional and spiritual development.

Although the macrobiotic lifestyle is very broad and deep, it begins with the practical task of cooking for oneself. Macrobiotics considers body and spirit to be one phenomenon. What we eat will become our spirit eventually. Of course our nourishment is not just the food we eat, but also the ideas and thoughts and experiences we take in. But in the macrobiotic viewpoint natural health starts with building and maintaining a healthy biological foundation by daily eating the natural foods that most benefit the growth of healthy cells in our blood, organs, body. This will eventually benefit our soul, the other part of our being.

In this view most of our meals in the climate zones of the U.S. and Europe consist of primarily (whole) grains and vegetable quality foods, supplemented with animal quality foods, like fish on a weekly, and organic dairy or eggs or poultry on a monthly basis. This is a diet fit for natural human well-being.It is no coincidence that those foods where at the basis of the cultures of ancient peoples all over the planet.

So instead of using a microwave…..study the Macro Wave!
