Love is Chemistry

Every emotion causes a chemical. Happiness, sadness, fear, worry, guilt, ambition, anger, joy, pleasure and pain. All 3600 emotions cause 3600 chemical combinations. (Candice Pert, Molecules of Emotion is a good reference) – So you can see, that what we eat is only a part of the story of health.

Let me give you some funny examples of this.

There I was in the health food shop, surrounded by organic this, and untouched that, and low and behold I bumped into an old friend. Their shopping basket was overloaded with packets of everything UN. Unbleached, Unpasturized, Unchemical, Unprocessed. All it needed was an N, and she could be a N UN. None. None of this, none of that…

We spoke about the world and she was now working for world peace and meditated allot. I looked her lifeless complexion, her sagging posture and listed to her talk about how much the word needed her philosophy. How bad those corporate drug lords are and the list went on. Frankly, I said, I don’t give a shit. She spat at me some obscenity and left. With her basket filled with “good food” but her veins filled with hate.

My Dad smoked for 70 years. He died in the end, the doctors shook their heads and blamed the cigarettes. My Dad nearly 90 years old and had lived under stresses like the second world war. He’d drunk beer, eaten sausages filed with fat, loved butter, and had built three houses from asbestos cement sheeting. But, the doctors all agreed, the cigarettes did it.

Telling people cigarettes are bad for them causes a chemical reaction in the body, before a person smokes. They feel guilty or something as a result of the negative advertising. So, who is making people sick, the cigarette company or the government who put disgusting pictures on cigarette packets.- WARNING SMOKING IS A HEALTH HAZARD>>>> well if it wasn’t before, it is now…

If you are a bundle of misery, always complaining about your ex, and how he or she, didn’t do this and did do that, and should’ve done this and could’ve done that, you are going to get sick. The chemicals of misery, acidify the body and kill you. That is a fact. Nature grows things that appreciate life, and shrinks things that don’t appreciate life. So when you appreciate your lover, things grow (if you know what I mean – both male and female) and if you don’t appreciate them, things shrink… So we are a part of natures evolution, and if we don’t flow with nature, and expand our range of thankful things, we get sick.

But we can’t expand our range of thankful things while we “fit into” societies thinking as a whole. Society – mass consciousness already prescribed what you can appreciate and what you can’t appreciate. That’s called religion. You get to have automatic responses to situations. Death – means sad. Birth means happy. Cruel means hate. Kind means like. These become conditioned responses to life. But they are totally not the truth.

In some cultures death is good, and birth is bad. Many men think you have to be cruel to be kind and many women think kindness is love. We are totally messed up when we think we know that our responses to certain situations are real. Our responses to situations are never real. Our responses are our responses and bundle with those responses are centuries of conditioning, circumstances and memories in cells. Goodness knows, we are 99.999999999999999999995 wrong in our responses. We have to be..

That’s why people are single. They learn that their responses are screwed up because, well see, look what happened in the past. So they invest in being different, and bingo, now their responses are right. Wrong. Now their responses are someone else’s.

So many women respond – react – aggressively to any form of control by men, yet, at their primal core, men are controlling. This may be confusing at first until you witness the pain, over thousands of years, male control has bought to women’s lives. If you imagine the deep resentment at a DNA level for women, well, who can blame people for standing up against years of abuse, even if it isn’t a current abuse, its years of backlog. And if you really think that by doing some sort of metaphysics weekend with a few self proclaimed spiritual gurus is going to change that meme, well good luck, what crapp… total blab blab

So for me, it comes down to a confession. I don’t know. I do know the laws of nature. That everything has two sides knocks out 90% of my reactions to situations before they begin. That we are all connected and what I see is me, knocks out another 5%. So now I am reacting about 5% of what I used to. And that last 5% – well that’s human – we have to have some challenges….

Because I know I don’t know, it means that if someone says they know, I know they don’t know, because to know, we must have no reactions. And they are usually telling me that they know, and when I say they don’t know, they don’t have no reaction. “NO”?

Nobody knows. We do understand the laws of nature. Nature can’t write a book, bind it in leather, threaten you with life in hell if you don’t obey. No, nature can’t send terrorists to another city to hurt people to prove it’s right. Nature is like me, she doesn’t give a shit. She just seeks balance. And if there is imbalance she corrects it. And if something is growing she nurtures it, and if something isn’t growing she nudges it (aka Tsunami, earthquake, bush fire, volcano, landslide etc) It’s a balancing act.

If we are deluding ourselves, and we are not really growing (be careful not to measure this in how clever you are) then we get nudged too. We get big nudges and little nudges. Big ones are cancers and things. Little ones are blisters on the toe. Either way, we grow at the border of support and challenge, and this is the way nature, and therefore your sacred relationship will grow you too. Challenge and support.

If you are thankful for both, you’ll make a very special chemical in your body. That is the love chemical. A virus that’s contagious. Watch out. Love is catching.

So you can see, if we were to rate the possible influences on our body chemistry, which, as I described in yesterdays article “Life is a chemical reaction”, food, drink, emotion and lifestyle would all be seen to play a major role in health, heart and love.

If you are in the wrong job, then you are up against the wall. No diet or supplement is going to help you. But what is the wrong job? Frankly, I think no such thing exists. I think bad self management exists. For example if you were a fire person and did accounting type work, you’d need lots of breaks, a run at lunch time, lots of intensity, computers and music. If you are an earth person al those things would cause you stress.

If you are in the wrong relationship, then you are up against the wall. No diet or supplement, or vitamin pill is going to keep you healthy. But, what is a bad relationship? Unless you are being decapitated each night, I suspect there is no bad relationship, there is only bad management. Not showing up, not protecting your sacred love home, too stressed, poor time management – over work, too much digital life and not enough play. Yes, this can kill a good relationship, a fantastic relationship and a bad relationship.

Overall we can say that health is defined at the border of acidity and alkalinity. That means if we eat acid food (red meat, mushrooms, raw garlic, tomatoes, eggplant and onion are the most common) or drink acid drinks (coke, sprite, beer, wine, tomato and orange juice, coffee, tea) we need to live a lifestyle that is alkaline (relaxed, peaceful, tranquil, calm, secure, unemotional, at peace) and have emotions that are alkaline (nurturing, kind, generous, soft, caring, nice, etc)

In the reverse if we are peace seekers, then we can afford to have acidity in our work, like stress and worry, because the peaceful emotions (alkaline) balance the violent work (acid)

But it is rarely so. Peace seekers, usually go to health food shops seeking organic veggies, organic beer and organic happiness. And stressed people are attracted to acidic things like wine, beer, red meat, fat, over exercise, driving fast cars and more. So, when we say, in the new book “sacred love” that love is a lifestyle, we mean it. Too much acid will kill you just as fast as too much alkaline. Seeking peacefulness in all areas of life, a person becomes alkaline (slothful and tired) and seeking hyperactivity in all areas of life, a person becomes acid, (nervous and forgetful)

I always recommend that people eat according to their work. If they are stressed, balance it with alkaline food. IF they are lazy at work, then eat acid food.

Same with emotion.
