Return to the TAO of Healing (Month-2) "Let's Talk Macrobiotics"

Most of us have heard of the macrobiotics as a healthy eating choice.  Well today we are going to speak to an expect on the topic. Join me as we learn from Steven Acuff who began his journey of eating natural foods in 1971 with his discovery of macrobiotic food.  He studied with macrobiotic author and lecturer Michio Kushi.  He has supported hundreds on their healing journeys through macrobiotic eating.  He’s an author and lecturer.

Today we will discuss:

• What makes the macrobiotic way of eating unique.
• A quick look at his typical food choices.
• The energetics of food, the yin and the yang.
• The role of bio-chemical balance as well as energetic balance. Focus on minerals, vitamins, gut health, detox.
• The connection between food quality and physical as well as mental health, and its implication for the spiritual path.
• What he learned during his 40+ years of food coaching and the years as a nutrition consultant at a German medical clinic.
• The potential for self-healing with organic, whole food.
• His personal benefit from 50+ years of macrobiotic living.
• Macrobiotic understanding as a factor in creating a viable solution to the crisis in pubic health, including for example, the sharply rising rate of obesity and diabetes, as well as the cost of this trend to more degeneration of health.
