Eastern Dietary TherapyEastern nutrition is seen as a pillar of traditional Chinese medicine. It teaches that depending on the constitution, lifestyle, environment, and season, each person requires a unique diet to promote balance within the body.
Eastern nutrition draws from the Five Elements in Chinese medicine to satisfy individual dietary needs. By emphasizing food properties such as flavor, color, texture, and energetics, dynamically balanced meals can be created for optimal nourishment. This Eastern healing tradition considers how, where, and when food is grown or raised, how it's prepared, and the body’s response to food. It also stresses the importance of appropriately timing meals and taking the time to enjoy food without distraction. Healing with Eastern nutrition can help revive your relationship with food to make preparation and consumption more enjoyable. This intuitive and holistic approach to nutrition encourages sustainable food habits that are deeply nourishing to the mind, body, and spirit. |
