Weekly Article
Finding Your True North
We were at a very nice gathering this evening chatting with a good friend of ours about another friend who has fairly recently begun to incorporate healthy diet and lifestyle practices into his life.
He, like so many others, has delved very deeply into the intellectual side of things, buying many books, and engaging in many deeply philosophical conversations whenever possible.
Yet with all of his healthy intentions, it seems that he has gained quite a bit of weight.
Since so many of us tend to favor the heavy side of the scale rather than the lighter side, the usual intention and outcome of a healthier diet and exercise is weight loss, not weight gain.
So you can imagine our surprise when we heard that our friend has gained 30 plus pounds and counting on his new healthy diet, rather than maintaining, or losing weight.
It is true that not everyone goes into a healthier diet and lifestyle needing to lose weight. Many simply want to improve their overall health and well being in general. Yes, some do actually want or need to lose weight. And a few actually want or need to gain weight.
But when someone is intentionally trying to gain weight, it is usually related to a condition, and not because they don't eat enough. So once the condition is corrected via appropriate diet and lifestyle techniques, once balance is restored, weight loss corrects itself, but not via over eating, which taxes the entire digestive system and rarely results in intentional weight gain.
We don't have enough information to know whether our friend has developed some sort of condition that is causing him to gain weight, or not, but we think not.
We think that perhaps he, like far too many, reads a lot, talks the talk, but doesn't truly walk the walk. |
George Ohsawa summed up this type of "syndrome" that so many of us go through, so well.
He said:
"The principle without the technique is useless.
The technique without the principle is dangerous."
|

We have encountered so many people with the best of intentions. They come for consultations. They come for cooking classes. They buy many books and kitchen equipment. They order many specialty food items that are recommended for use in this type of cooking.
But as George Ohsawa so succinctly put it:
No amount of intellectual knowledge works if you don't put what you learn into practice.
Yet practicing the technique, without the intellectual knowledge, without the principle behind the technique, does not work either and can inadvertently result in unwanted, and sometimes even dangerous side effects. In our friends case this may be manifesting as rather extreme weight gain. In other cases it can possibly manifest as something even more serious.
None of us are perfect. That is for sure. Life is one gigantic learning process. We are all works in progress.
By incorporating both principle and technique, evenly, in balance and synchronization, we can at the very least hit our life with our best shot. And at the very most, we can give ourselves, and our lives, so much more.
We want our friend to find his own true path. His own true north. The one true path that is, most importantly, true to himself.
We want this for us all!
Hopefully the beautiful menu that we have for you this week will help to guide you as you pursue your own "true north", your own perfectly balanced, intellectual and practical, true path.

May health, happiness, and prosperity be your unavoidable natural state and your ongoing daily experience.

**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 |
