BEST FOODS FOR BODY, MIND AND SOUL

The book of Genesis, second chapter tells us that God formed man of the dust of the ground, breathed into the lungs and man became a living soul. The great healer, Edgar Cayce reminds us that rarely does the body breathe as deep as it should and we should practice deep breathing more than we do. “Without proper oxidation of the whole of the blood stream, tiredness occurs at times, creating heaviness across the small of the back, just below the kidneys at times coupled with the lack of assimilations of food and proper combination of alkaline and acid foods. To avoid colds and flu and many illnesses it is best to consume 80 percent fruits, vegetables and salads and the other 20 percent the high protein foods like meats, fish, beans and dairy products.

“Since the skin breathes as well as every other cell in the body more exercises should be taken in the open air to bring the full expansion of the lung cells to purify and clarify our system. The respiratory system is one of the greatest principals through which eliminations are made in the body,” urged Edgar Cayce.

The tiger or any cat demonstrates very well the exercises needed for all the muscular forces. Take only three to five minutes morning and evening before an open window, gradually rising up on the toes and lifting the hands above the head on inhalation will help fill the chest with more oxygen, and then lowering the arms, one can exhale with a “whoosh.” Raising one arm at a time is best for those who have trouble maintaining body balance. Exhalations through the mouth help expel the carbon monoxide from the lungs and fill them with fresh air. For variety one can breathe in one nostril at a time while closing the other one with a finger and the reverse with the other. Staying close to nature helps rejuvenate the body through increased circulation and better eliminations. “Each person has a purpose in the Earth that is as a harp upon which the breath of God would play,” was Cayce’s beautiful conclusion to the importance of proper breathing.
