QUOTE OF THE DAY
"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart And try to love the questions themselves" Rainer Maria Rilke |
WEEKLY ARTICLE:
LOL~ It Will Do Your Heart Good
Summer solstice has occurred.
Summer is officially upon us, and we are in the thick of it in many parts of the planet!
In traditional oriental medicine summer is associated with the heart (and small intestines), and the element fire.
You may notice that many people suffer from heart related conditions during the summer. Imbalance within the heart and small intestines manifests more predominantly during this season.
|
Heart ~ Fire energy helps us to see clearly, to understand, and to be compassionate. The small intestine supports this by sorting out and extracting the good from what we ingest.
Think of this team of organs as the separators of the pure from the impure, bringing forth light and heat, helping our own bodies to regulate body temperature and manage and maintain heat, while also giving warmth to others.
The ability to make the sound of laughter comes from the heart element.
During this season it is especially important to be aware of and take good care of your heart. |
We have a few heartfelt ideas to assist you in getting through this season in the best of heart health.
* Exercise every day. Intentional exercise is great, but spontaneous exercise, done during the course of your regular daily activities works too. Anything is better than absolutely nothing! Housework counts!! Park a little further from your destination and enjoy a little walk. SWIM!! Most importantly, forgive yourself for not being on a perfect workout schedule and just do the best that you can.
* Be kind to yourself. Kindness and compassion nurture the heart. They are feel good medicine. Whenever you find yourself berating yourself, simply STOP. Turn it around immediately. If you find yourself thinking a negative thought, practice changing it to a positive.
* Nurture friendship, and learn to be your own best friend, because if you don't know this already, you need to: You truly are your own very best friend. Treat yourself well, the way you want others to treat you, and the kind way that you treat others. Love everyone and everything the best that you possibly can.
* Practice gratitude. Each and every day. Always confirm / reaffirm all that you are grateful for in your life. Focus on that and let the negatives drop away.
* Eat healthy, seasonal, fresh, organic, REAL food. Try to eliminate all refined, packaged, processed foods from your life. Organic products are actually denser, and weigh more, than those that are commercially grown. You won't need to, or even be able to eat as much real food in order to feel full, SO:
* Stop worrying about your weight! Don't judge yourself. Just become more active, and eat as well as you can. When you are ready to love yourself for who you are, and make these sort of heart healthy changes, your body will follow your true hearts desire. Visualize the self you want to be.
* Use real sea salt. Most salt sold in grocery stores, and used in packaged foods and restaurants is demineralized, bleached, chemically treated, lifeless, and used in tremendous excess. Commercial salt, used in excess, is bad for your heart and also your kidneys. Treat yourself to mineral rich tasty authentic sea salt and only use it in your cooking. No more salt shakers at the table. Real sea salt won't pour out of a salt shaker anyway; it is too moist and dense. And real sea salt, cooked into your food properly, and in the proper quantity, actually strengthens and supports your heart (and kidneys).
* If you smoke, stop! Your risk of heart disease drops dramatically when you quit. No matter how long or how much you smoke, you can quit. You will reap the rewards immediately.
* Laugh Out Loud ~ (LOL), and as often as you can. Treat yourself to the luxury of pure enjoyment. It will do your heart good!

Perhaps you can think of even more heart healthy ideas that would work well for you. We know that we can. The more you can do to support your heart, this and at all times of the year, the better. The idea is to enjoy and embrace all of the seasons. Just as we should not suffer due to the cold of winter, we also should not suffer from the heat of summer.
We here at Wholly Macro feel that the best way to appreciate each and every season of the year in the best of health is to take full advantage of the wisdom of Mother Nature and her seasonal bounty.
Eating in harmony with the seasons is essential to
living in harmony with them.
In this way, we nourish all of the various organs of our body consistently, throughout the entire year, so that they, in turn, can do their jobs with ease, and support us well, even when operating at peak capacity during extreme weather and other conditions.
In Health As Always.

**Wholly Macro makes every attempt to maintain a totally vegan and allergen free kitchen cooking environment. We make every effort to avoid any type of cross contamination during food preparation. Most foods used in the Wholly Macro kitchen are not packaged, but instead are bought in the produce section or in bulk. But as you know, cross contamination is always a possibility, especially with bulk items. And in the few packaged foods that we do use, such as nut butters for example, it is common to find warnings on the manufacturer label stating that the item was processed in a plant that handles tree nuts, soy, wheat, dairy, gluten, shellfish, and so on.
Wholly Macro cannot be responsible for trace amounts of common food allergens that come from outside (packaged or bulk items), and therefore end up occurring within our prepared foods. Please use your own discretion in determining if our food is appropriate for your consumption, especially if you have severe food allergies.
We are always available to clarify any of the ingredients that we use, and assist you in your weekly selections, but we cannot keep track of your food allergies, sensitivities, likes, dislikes or preferences.
Please call or email prior to ordering if you need further information or clarification.

Here's some feedback from a consultation client..... " three years ago I discovered that I had breast cancer. I had heard of Macrobiotics years ago. I didn't understand the concept but immediately I knew that that would be the route that I would pursue. But where to go and who to see was the question. Thank God for reading the macrobiotic newsletter. For in the newsletter there was an article about Gayle Stolove. I just felt her strength and passion burn through the page that I was reading. I immediately made an appointment to see her and although I was still so frightened, I felt so comfortable talking with Gayle. Gayle guided me through the whole process. I thought that the macrobiotic way of life would be boring and just eating rice. Well, I love the foods that I eat and I just feel good about it all. You see, after the surgery, you are sort of left on your own.You have to make your own decisions, etc. Everyone gives you different advice as what to eat, what to do, etc. Doctors don't understand what the patient is going through nor do they understand what kind of diet they should follow. I adopted Gayle as my guardian angel. You can't find that with any nutritionist or doctor. I love receiving her weekly e-mailed newsletters. They are so full of wonderful knowledge and beautiful healthy recipes. Gayle is a remarkable human being. She truly cares for her clients and gives them her all, one hundred percent of the time. Gayle has been there and therefore she is so compassionate and dedicates her life to helping people like me....." a cancer survivor |
