Am I really free if I don't have the power to choose my food?
Yes, I know what makes me feel good, but I can't choose it. So I'm not free, I'm a slave because it dominates me. Oh, but that sounds so hard. I can tell you with all sincerity that, despite having a healthy diet, I still choose foods that are not optimal for my physical body, but that do help me achieve peak-emotional balance. Yes, I am on my way to that freedom.
When we plant our food, that connection with nature is regenerated, where I know that what I put in my mouth is what I planted. This is an act of rebellion!! It's like printing money!
In the photo I am with my 🍅, I am happy although I still do not produce enough to meet the amount of what I eat, but I want to. I also have various herbs, kale, chayote, passion fruit, avocado, papayas, etc... It is a change that has taken me years and is still increasing.
When I started eating raw food, it was an awakening of consciousness. I felt the need to leave the city, and the earth began to call me more and more strongly. While I was living in Mexico City, I had my pots with herbs and a few vegetables… To think that before I was disgusted by the earth and bugs, hahaha 😳 and today I love them.
There is no perfection, but there is flexibility. I hope that the time will come when I can feed myself almost entirely from my garden and fruit trees. I am working to manifest that reality.
Each time I become a little freer, more sovereign, more aware of my choices, more rebellious, more free. I let go of unsustainable models, the processed, the packaged, the junk, the alienated.
Will you join this revolution? It can start in a flowerpot 🌱 Let's keep planting these seeds of freedom and autonomy!
A hug
