Raw food is definitely a more subtle energy, I've noticed. And there is, at least for me, a certain mindframe, certain kinds of environments and situations where I cannot stay when raw. |
After reading this I had to think about it for a while. Yes, I do feel the capacity for negative emotion is much smaller on a healthier diet. I do have negativity in my personal life. And when I succumb to negative emotions I do realize that indulging in unhealthier foods will make me feel better temporarily. Coffee was hard for me to quit for that reason, it made me feel good while allowing me to harbor negative feelings at the same time. On healthy food your only choice is to bolt or to let go of the negative emotions. This becomes even more difficult when the people or circumstances are infringing on your physical comfort and peace and quiet. I believe though that negativity in any form can only affect you if you harbor it within. Healthier foods decrease your capacity for harboring negativity and increase your ability to feel good.
