Balancing Your Chakras Through Diet & Intermittent Fasting

I am a fan of eating healthy or trying my best to find the best foods I possibly can. I have been like this for decades. I’m not saying I never indulge in foods that are not that great for you; However, I try to make the foundation of my food choices healthy. 

I gave up beef and pork decades ago and eliminated poultry with growth hormones and antibiotics. That’s due to those two things exacerbating my fibroids. Actually, I altered my diet 100% due to the foods making me feel bad. I was never trying to make a statement or fight the power. ALL of the foods I gave up made me feel crappy. 

Covid-19 forced me to change my diet, especially in the earliest stages. That’s because I had to choose between staying home which meant staying safe or venturing out to buy food that wasn’t as healthy but convenient. So I chose to stay safe, and this eliminated my indulgence in grabbing pizza and other processed foods. So, now 95% of my foods are not processed, and due to Imperfect Produce, a huge portion of my foods are organic. 

So, in keeping that same heath focus energy, I started to focus on aligning my chakras. Yes, I am going full black hippie on ya’ll. Anywayzzz, in my research, I found lots of information that discussed how eating certain foods could help to balance and align your chakras. 

Crown Chakra is white but the focus should be about foods that have natural detoxing qualities, clear the mind, and boost energy levels. Intermittent fasting is also a great way to help flush out toxins. 

• Detoxing foods: onions, garlic, beets, artichokes, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, collard greens, kale, and Brussels sprouts.
• Sunlight & air is essential.
• Juice & teas: turmeric, ginger 
• Herbs: lavender, juniper, and sage
• Intermittent fasting: If you stop eating at 6:00 PM and you don’t eat again until 6:00 AM the next morning, you’ve fasted. That is something that you can easily do regularly.
