Hi everyone! The Chakra Alignment Scramble was created to give you the opportunity to have a foundation for eating every color. You will notice that this recipe is very versatile as some items are seasonal. For example, the pumpkin flowers and leaves are an item that may not be readily available. These orange and green items can always be substituted for another orange or green item, but this recipe has all of the colors without them. I am so excited to share this with you!
WHY EAT EVERY COLOR?
For continued good health, chakra alignment and grounding…we are urged to design our meals around the colors of our chakra points (red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue and purple). To answer the question, “Why?” requires consideration of human evolution and biology. Humans used the color of food to determine if it is spoiled, poisonous or safe to eat. Humans used to be able to crave food, trust that craving and scavenge for food they needed to heal themselves. For example, oranges are a great source of vitamin C. If we are coming down with a virus, most head to our local grocery store to grab some orange juice. Unfortunately, with the rise of processed food and food dyes, modern humans have a hard time fulfilling the natural cravings for self healing to occur. Frequently, we see a heavily processed bright orange cheese puff and immediately want this rather than closing our eyes, grounding, and assessing our body for what it truly needs. Orange foods…. great! We can eat an orange, orange bell pepper or nuts (few examples for your Sacral Chakra see below). Heavily processed foods include the use of colored, cheap, poor quality, and unhealthy ingredients contributing to the present health crisis. Our cells have photoreceptors to color. When our body is out of alignment in a specific area, our cells send a signal to our brain to eat (crave) foods to help heal and align. We are so powerful!
