Episode 233: Simplicity: Food Part 2 – The Plan

It’s great to have you back, brothers, as we wrap up our simplicity series on food with three simple ways to change your relationship with food for the better. Now food, just like everything else in life, is energy. So, it’s all about how you take that energy, absorb it, and allow it to positively influence your energy output.    Food is not your entertainment, brothers. It is not meant to save you from boredom, that would be an unhealthy relationship with food. A healthy relationship with food starts with how you think about it, and from there you’d be wise to create a simple routine for how you consume food. The constraint you show in your routine will add much value to your relationship with food.  Brothers, just like any relationship with other people or your pets or anything else, your relationship with food needs to come from a place of love and gratitude. Love your food the way you love yourself, after all, the food you eat becomes you. Be grateful for what you eat and verbally express your gratitude. If for nothing else, then at least be grateful for the convenience of grocery stores, that you do not have to hunt and gather for your food.    You’ve all heard the saying, “Time makes the heart grow fonder.” Well, again, the sentiment applies to food as well. By fasting and taking conscious breaks away from food, you will begin to truly appreciate it and your relationship with it will grow ever stronger. So, brothers, reexamine your relationship with food, make it simple, allow your love to flow through, take breaks and fast and meditate, and continue to elevate your alpha.
