Living Without, With Fun

Between the rise of food allergies and the increasing interest in living more harmoniously with our environment, many people are exploring diet alterations in order to find balance within and without. These modifications to our food intake can sometimes feel restrictive, confusing, or over-whelming. Yet, it's likely that soon the 'proper' diet for your body-mind-spirit will start to feel good. And, it can be fun - if you approach it as a game or a challenge, maybe even a puzzle of all the elements that need to be pieced together to become your perfect healthy self.

It's hard not to sound like I'm lecturing when I talk about why I feel moderation is vital to our survival - as individual bodies and as a species and a universe. But had we not gotten ourselves to a point of such excess, it would not feel so inhibiting to live more simply. And don't get me wrong - I enjoy many of the outcomes of "modern society", and indulge in these luxuries and conveniences myself (mobile phones and music players and computers and fashion and restaurants and so on). Hey, even moderation should be taken in moderation, right?

So, taking ourselves where we are. Not living in caves or under trees (as nice as that may sound), but living in stride with our fellows and peers and families, as householders with jobs and grocery stores and transportation and everything else. There are things you can do that don't have to interfere with that life. If anything, these choices may even enhance that life.
