Healing a Long-Term, Painful Relationship with Food

For many, food the most basic, life–sustaining sustenance, has become the enemy. The body has become the enemy. How did this happen?

Even when the body is ready to move on and heal, the mind can stay stuck in the painful past when pain has become a way of life. I know this is happening with a client when their body is saying a food is compatible but they have been told and believe certain foods are harmful or have had a lot of food intolerance issues over a long period of time. In this case, the compatible food, even highly compatible food may have the expected negative effect (placebo effect). Even when healing is happening and becoming evident, It’s hard to trust again. Trust the freedom. Trust the healing.

We are not here to live in a “Food Prison”…any prison. We are here to live abundantly!

There is a way to move past the fear of food and heal this relationship as the body heals. Fear does become a habit, just like any other habit. And habits are made to be broken.

First, let’s consider this…

Everything is energy vibrating from extremely low to extremely high and everything in between… including our food and “our thoughts”. Many have heard me say, “If you judge your food, it will judge you back”.

How many have said, “This cake is going straight to my hips.”? Or something similar? You just helped it get there!

The energy of judgement is very low and the energy of unconditional love is extremely high. “Like” energy attracts “like” energy. We may say we want one thing, but our negative thoughts, words and resulting emotions are saying just the opposite. Keeping this in mind, it is not hard to imagine what happens when we judge our food and what is possible when we bless it with love and gratitude and our undivided, loving attention.

I had a client early on that challenged this premise to the extreme. This client and I had been working together for about 6 months and during that time her vibrant health had been restored and she had met her weight loss goal. She had healed the “root” of her dis-ease.
The time had arrived for her to go on the cruise her and her husband had been looking forward to for a long time. This experience was really going to put to the ultimate test what she said she knew and now believed. She was a little nervous…

Was it possible to go on a cruise where FOOD is the main event without sabotaging her good health or gaining weight? The proof is in the puddin’. She lost weight on the cruise. Who does that!

When we bless our food, give it our attention (love), and enjoy it, we give it every opportunity to bless our body, no matter what it is. Our body is Divinely Designed to take from the food what it needs and release what it doesn’t. “We” clog the wheel of what our body does naturally when we judge the food.

It’s easy to fall into the judgment trap when so much of our food supply contains toxins and chemicals. It’s becoming hard to even know what is in our food”, especially when dining out. A lot of people eat out these days! It was hard for me to stay out of judgment until Spirit provided the answer.

“Our Source Good/God is in All of Creation. It cannot be any other way.”
We may call something “manmade”, but the reality… God Stuff or Good Stuff runs through all of it. It may be far removed, but it is still there. Consider that it takes Mother Earth’s organic materials to make a chemical. The creative clay (Divine Inspiration) and physical clay, Mother Earth (God’s birthing place), births all of our creations.

With this in mind, how might we amplify the good that is the back of everything; bring it into the forefront and expand it? Love and gratitude does this, not only in our food; but in all of our life! Judgement keeps the good (the love) buried. It is what buried our Love and our Good to begin with.

If food has become the enemy in your experience, you might experiment with a love and gratitude blessing over your food (no matter what it is) and then give it your undivided, loving attention…turn off the TV, close the book. Pay attention to the flavors and textures. Pay attention to when you feel satisfied. Enjoy it!

There is NO doubt that a sincere, heart-felt love and gratitude blessing raises the energy of the food. I demonstrate this in every workshop in a way that can be “seen” with your physical eyes. Your loving attention and enjoyment can even bring the food into compatibility with your body. There is a GOOD reason every culture has been blessing food from the beginning of time in one form or another.

Feel free to use my food blessings:

Long Version:
“Thank you for this delicious abundance! Thank you for every creation that took part in this one. Thank you for the blessing of perfect nourishment this now provides this/our body/bodies. And, thank you for the miracle of this body that knows EXACTLY what to do with it. Thank you for the sheer pleasure it brings!” In immense appreciation, love and gratitude….Amen!

Short Version:
“Let the Good/God that is in this food be expanded to bless my/our body/bodies mightily! And, thank you to every creation that took part in this one!” Amen!

While you are at it, extend this blessing into the world’s food supply. Many do not have a choice in what they eat. We have the power with our prayers and blessings to bring out the good collectively. As within, so without….

NOTE: A blessing can become a curse when you bless the food and THEN JUDGE IT. Once you have blessed it, let go of your mind and be present with your senses.

More practices for healing the relationship with food…

Mantra: “I allow this food to heal me.” Repeat as often as necessary.

One Minute Meditation
This practice allows you to see your fearful thoughts and align them with what you want every waking hour. Just set an intention to see these thoughts, set your alarm to remind you it is time to sit with your breath for 1 minute. The thoughts will arise. Notice them and go back to your breathing. Afterwards, write them down and realign with what you want.

Use this for any thoughts that are opposing your Good! Most people break the habit of negative thinking within 4 weeks when practiced diligently. This is your ticket to freedom! Bringing into the conscious mind what is running you from behind.

Food Meditation
This was one of my favorite events during a meditation retreat years ago. Go figure! I’m a foodie! What a beautiful way to fully experience the food with all of your senses. Have a food meditation party! You will need a journal for this.

To start, sit comfortably at your dining table. Blind-fold yourself. Have a friend or family member, not participating, place a large bowl full of various fruits in front of you “they” have chosen. Maybe some things you haven’t tried before. Bless everything in the bowl.
Now choose a piece of fruit. Take your time… Feel it all. Take mental note of textures. Listen. How does it sound to run your fingers over each one? Then choose one.
Bring the fruit to your nose and take in the aroma or lack of. It may need to be peeled to release its scent. Do so very slowly, honoring the process. Let your sense of smell fully engage. Let go. If the fruit is familiar, the smell alone may bring up powerful memories; may take you back to your childhood or beyond.
It’s time to eat it now. Savor it slowly with all your attention on how it feels in your mouth…the burst of flavor so very unique. What experiences does it remind you of? Make a mental note. Continue to enjoy, savoring every bite.
Remove your blindfold. You may be surprised by what you chose and how much you enjoyed it. You have made a new friend. Or NOT!
It’s time to journal your experience. Write down everything, from start to finish. You may be very surprised at what arrives.
Develop a habit of enjoying your food to this extent as much as possible (without the blindfold).

I pray you find this helpful and once again or for the first time, enjoy a beautiful, healthful, “open” relationship with food!

What is your Purpose? Is it More Doing or More Being?

I have always been an advocate for healthy food, taking care of the body and owning responsibility for our health. In my early years with Food Revelation, before the “Intuitive Chef Journey”, I spent a lot of time railing against a broken system that seemed hell-bent on destroying our health. I was focused on how we have been victimized. I was very vocal and very active. I thought of myself as an “activist”.

I was also a very judgmental vegan at the time and I found myself spouting off to anyone that would listen all that was wrong with the consumption of animal-based foods. I believed the world would be a better place and everyone would be healthy if they just ate what I ate (by the way, I wasn’t that healthy at the time). When my intuitive gifts kicked in, along with the “Food is Talking” food charts, I had to eat a lot of crow, as they say, when I realized that some people do need what only an animal can provide to be healthy. That doesn’t necessarily mean it has to be meat. You can read those “downloads” here.

It is so easy to forget our Loving Nature and be blind to Loving Solutions when overcome with fear and judgment. I began noticing, the more negativity and resistance I put out there, the more unrest I experienced. I started getting slapped with energies and found myself unclear and ungrounded a lot. I finally got it! I was not an activist! It wasn’t my job. I began to understand I was here to “HOLD THE LIGHT”. It was a process to move from “Doing” to “Being”. I resisted and I tried being both for a while. That didn’t work. I just got hit harder. I guess I have a very hard head! Maybe I was an activist in prior lives and old habits die hard.

Jesus started speaking to me around this time. This is a compilation of several Jesus downloads I’ve received over the years. Many of you have received bits and pieces of the following in session. Here it is in its entirety. He is responding to my questions. As usual, it is peppered with parables, stories, and a touch of humor….

“It is impossible to BE an activist, “The Resistance”, and BE the LIGHT at the same time. I know from my own experience as both. Resistance is the energy of conflict. Resistance requires judgment. You recall I have said, DO NOT JUDGE. Judgement exists only in duality. It resists “Wholeness” and “Unity”. It operates in the dark.

Have you noticed you don’t see well in the dark? Judgment is the darkness that clouds your vision. It clouds your God-given “Discernment”; your ability to discern Truth from fiction.

Have you ever tried driving in the fog? You cannot see what is right in front of you. You also cannot see “what is” behind “what is” in front of you. Once you have made a judgement and “believed” it, you can’t see The forest for the trees”.

Your judgements are always based in the fearful past. These are the trees that block your view and keep you from seeing the Big Beautiful Picture.

Have you ever thought you lost your precious phone only to realize you were holding it in your hand? Or, your keys, only to discover they were right where you laid them. How does that happen? You made up your mind! You “believed” you lost these things and therefore could not see them. Your mind is that powerful! And for a good reason! It’s part of your Creative Power. It is powerful enough to block your vision. Your SIGHT is truly INFINITE as you are, when you do not shut it down with judgement.

The time has come for “NON-RESISTANCE”. It is essential to the Grand Awakening you are in the mist of and what you signed up for! Everything you have created up until now and always will be used for GOOD. Resistance has at last served its purpose! It built your Spiritual Muscle, much like resistance exercise builds your physical muscle. Every time you have resisted Your Truth, Your Power, who you Truly Are is being revealed, coming into view, just like your muscles come into view with repetitive resistance exercise.

This time has been upon you for what might seem like eons. It is almost finished. There are enough of you holding the LIGHT of TRUTH for TRUTH and LIGHT to be fully revealed. You are “Torch Bearers”.

All that is necessary now for the collective human to awaken from the illusion you have been lost in, is those awakened to expand the LIGHT and THE GOOD that is in ALL You do not have to know what that is. You don’t have to make sense of anything. It is the “fearful ego” that wants to know. It wants to control the process for fear you may not see the danger on the horizon.

Up until now your ego has built walls to keep you safe within an illusion. You have built better and better mousetraps, generation after generation, to trap the “perceived” enemy to feel safe and secure. But they are still traps. You have been trapped in fear for so long, it has become your way of BEING. It feels very foreign to feel any other way. Freedom is not a friend of the EGO.

Nothing YOUR EGO could ever build will make your feel safe. Your security lies in knowing who you are and your INFINITE POWER. When enough know who they are, “INFINITE LOVE & LIGHT there will be NO more “Ego-based” power struggles. You will simply create what you need from the SOURCE CLAY that is never-ending.

Nothing is outside of you. Nothing is being done to you. YOU have participated in creating a grand illusion built on fear and judgment. Fear and judgment are what buried your Truth and your Good to begin with and it is also what is bringing you face-to-face with YOUR TRUTH. In the world of duality “the contrast” has served its purpose. It has allowed your LIGHT to be revealed, much like a picture comes into view in a dark room.

In the LIGHT the illusion is exposed. Remember your beloved movie The Wizard of Oz? It offers a great analogy for what is occurring right now. The illusion you have been operating in will crumple and in its place will be a brand-new system built on TRUTH and LOVE. You will live in joyful anticipation and wonder rather than fear as you no longer drag the past into the future.

Some are here to hold the LIGHT during this time. You came to BE the mirror that your fellow humans see themselves clearly in as the LOVE they Truly Are. Resistance will no longer work for you. The LIGHT is all you need. Your LIGHT has always been more powerful than anything you have created in the dark. You just haven’t known it until now.

For everything and anyone you may find yourself wanting to judge, see their LIGHT or GOOD expand in them or into the situation. THAT’S ALL unless an intervention is needed to prevent imminent physical harm in the present moment.

Your BEING the LIGHT IS your most important work on Earth. Your BEING the LIGHT will result in many miracles. No shadow can withstand the amount of unfiltered Pure Light and Pure Love” YOU are revealing. Resist the urge to resist. REMEMBER, everyone came on PURPOSE with a crucial PURPOSE.

Your job is quite simple. You may want to make it hard. The Ego is addicted to “DOING AND DRAMA” and making things complicated. There will be a need for protection and self-defense for a time, until your “unveiling” is complete. Leave this job to those who came for this purpose. There are plenty.

The awakened are aware now of everything that comes to mind. This has been crucial work that has taken lifetimes to achieve. You now have a choice in what thoughts you keep and what to toss out. As you say, “You are in the driver’s seat.”

Pay close attention to your body. It is serving you at its Highest Function as your “Thought Barometer”. You will know just by how you feel what thoughts are in alignment with Love and Truth and which align with judgement and fear.

Keep your focus on the good you want to see…on Love. Expand it. DO NOT entertain in your mind anything else.

Be as a child, curious and open before the world taught you anything. You may be delighted at what you see and receive.

Do not lower yourself to the level of the world’s denseness. Eat well, rest well. Meditate on peace, love, joy, gratitude…GOD/GOOD. Remember what you came for. Bless you for your service!

All is well always…

Jesus”

I noticed when I finally surrendered to my purpose and I stay in my lane, it is much easier to remain in “observation mode”; to watch all the drama in these turbulent times without getting emotionally attached. I no longer have an uncontrollable urge to “respond or react.” In this mode, I can see a bigger picture and often receive Higher Perspectives that amaze me. Peace and gratitude are the result. Bless the ones that have had the harder task…

BTW – If you are wondering… All my clients are “Torch Bearers”. I came to serve you…

The 7 Missing Links to Abundant & Sustainable Health” – Missing Link #4 preview

Today I’m sharing a preview of the 4^th Missing Link in the upcoming book, “The 7 Missing Links to Abundant & Sustainable Health”. The “onion peeling” continues…

In case you missed the first 3 Missing Links, you can find them here: https://www.foodrevelation.com/blog/

Missing Link #4 – Chronic physical imbalance begins at the “unconscious thought” level.

It doesn’t matter if your fearful, stressful “acidic thoughts” are conscious or unconscious, the body responds the same way. It makes acid. It becomes inflamed.   When thoughts are unconscious, no matter how much you practice “positive thinking” you still feel bad; emotionally and physically. You are powerless to make any lasting change. Discouragement and hopelessness set in.

Many clients find me when they are at the end of their rope. When they’ve been to doctor after doctor and tried all kinds of healing modalities. Some have suffered for years, a lifetime or multiple lifetimes, and that can be what it takes to start the healing process. Many people are not motivated to seek resolution until they are sick and tired of being sick and tired.

Some believe the “Law of Attraction” is not real, because they have already proven to themselves their “positive thinking” and “conscious focus” on what they want is not creating the desired results.

“Cause and Effect” is another name for this Law of the Universe. Which means, what we think, feel and do are the cause and our experience is the effect. Our emotional responses (how we feel) and how we view the world are the result of what we believe based on our current and past life experiences.

All of us made decisions very early on about what we believe about ourselves, love and even God. Some of our decisions were made even before we had words, as early as in the womb.  If we came to believe we are not good enough, life will prove it to us.   If we came to believe the world is a scary place, then we will experience the world as such. If we came to believe that love hurts, then love will cause hurt. If we came to believe in a God of punishment, wrath, and torture, we will live a life full of fear and fear physical death.

These early beliefs run deep. We can go an entire lifetime, never realizing that at the root of our misery, are beliefs we formed as a child with a child’s mind that simply were never true. What is running from behind in the unconscious mind, may have run and ruined your life. Or, so it seems…

The Good News!  Our Hardest Knocks in Life Contain the Biggest Nuggets! The subject of Missing Link #5.  Stay tuned…

Mastering Divine Discernment: Living Behind the Prison of the Mind

To master Divine Discernment, you must let go of all “you think” you know...

Once you have made up your mind you have narrowed your mind. You can’t see the forest for the trees. You have blocked your peripheral vision. Much like a horse with blinders, you cannot see the “Big Picture”. The mind will not allow it.

I’m reminded of the time not so long ago when I locked my keys in my car, or so I thought. I called AAA and a super nice guy showed up to unlock my car. Low and behold, my keys were not there. I dumped the entire contents of my purse out on the pavement, and guess what? They were in my purse all along! Even though I had searched through my purse several times, I could not see them. Why? I had already made up my mind they were in the car. I narrowed my field of vision.

When working with clients and asking questions of Spirit, I may expect a certain answer based on experience, but I don’t let “what I think” get in the way. I stay curious and open to receiving whatever Spirit wants me to know. Often, I’m completely surprised by the answers I receive. This is the key to Divine Discernment. It’s easy for me to stay curious and open. I’ve had years of experience working “blindly” with people remotely. If I don’t know anything, there is nothing in my head to get in the way. Anyone can hone this skill by practicing the repetitive exercises I share in “A Course in Discernment” workshop.

Sometimes it is hard to be completely open and neutral, especially when you are emotionally charged or attached; for instance, when it comes to your health and well-being or the health and well-being of a loved one. You have “skin in the game”. It is still possible, however. You may say before you ask Spirit for guidance in this situation, “I don’t care what the answer is, I just want to know the Truth or what is for Highest Best”.

You have the capacity to receive information beyond this world, from Higher Dimensions. You have the capacity to see a bigger picture. You have the capacity to tap into the Source of ALL knowledge. Most of you already know this from your own experience. Still, it’s easy to get sucked in by what others believe is true for several reasons stated below…

When you open yourself up to your Source for guidance and learn to trust it, you will never have to rely on what you see or hear to discern Truth (almost impossible now). Or, spend your time and energy doing tons of research to try to get to the Truth (also not a reliable method anymore). This is True Freedom!
FREEDOM FROM THE HUMAN MIND THAT KEEPS US IN A BIND!

As you embark on this journey into Divine Discernment, it is important to leave judgement behind. Judgment buries Truth. It drastically reduces our field of vision. Truthfully, how can we judge anything if we do not know how anything will turn out in ALL of space and time? We can see in our own lives, how something that looked terrible at the time ended up be the biggest blessing. I love this saying, “Everything works out in the end. If it hasn’t worked out, it is not the end.”

Can you be absolutely certain that what you are witnessing IS or IS NOT for Highest Best Good? GOD KNOWS what we could not possibly know from our limited human perspective.

We must be willing to change our mind as we open ourselves up to our God’s Mind. This is our greatest obstacle to growth and freedom individually and collectively.

Because we are ONE, as we change our mind, others have an opportunity to change theirs. No convincing is necessary. However, if someone is open, what you are “guided” to say may help break them out of the prison of their mind. This is how collective change happens…one mind at a time. It may seem like change is happening out there. When in reality, change is happening within and being extended “out there”.

I’m reminded of how inspiration works. I read this somewhere, however, the name is not coming to me right now. I get it’s True. You may have an “inspired idea”, something “you” didn’t think of. The thought just arrived. You have a choice of whether to act on this idea or not. However, the idea has been birthed. If you don’t act on it, someone will. Our thoughts are “Out There”. Even the inspired ones. So are our feelings…

Emotions can be polarizing. They can drag us around and attach us to belief systems. When enough people feel a certain way, an energetic morphic field is created. When created, it acts like a magnet, pulling others that are also emotionally charged the same way into the field. Morphic fields based in Love/Truth are beneficial. You might think of a fun “Flash Mob”. Those based in untruth/fear is how violent, destructive riots are created.

Sometimes our thoughts and feelings don’t even belong to us. For gifted empaths, it’s easy to absorb the energy of thoughts and emotions from others and get pulled into morphic fields. These gifted beings must learn how to protect their energy fields while they help others heal.

Some rely on how they feel emotionally to make a decision. This is not the same as your “gut feeling” or intuition. And it is not reliable and not what they are for. Our emotional reactions could have nothing to do with what is front of us. You could be reacting to a painful experience from the past. A sore spot that the present experience is rubbing against. For instance, maybe you grew up in lack. What you are hearing is provoking the fear of more lack. Your “EGO” guidance will help you make a “fear-based” choice. TRUTH will not argue with you. You have been given the FREE WILL to choose fear.

Thinking and remembering are one in the same and are based in past experience.

You must leave the past behind and move into the peaceful present to discern TRUTH.

The primary roles of emotions are to allow us to experience the richness of life AND to let us know when what “we are thinking” consciously or unconsciously is in alignment with Love or fear. You will know by how you feel. Are you afraid, stressed, depressed? Or, are you joyful, peaceful, grateful, and at ease?

Staying neutral and completely objective is the key to being a pure channel for Divine Discernment. Easier said than done...right? Even while you are working on processing hurts from the past, and bringing all unconscious thinking into the present, there is still a way to tap into TRUTH.

Our ego mind, in it’s over zealous attempt to protect us, hijacks all common sense when it is constantly fed fear. Breathe… Step outside of the ego-mind and the world. Leave the prison of your mind behind as you remember your natural way of knowing and being…

Another “Course in Discernment” workshop is coming in February 2025. This will be an in-person and live Zoom workshop. To learn more, click here.

Missing Link #3: Preview from the Evolution of Free Health Book Series

Today I’m sharing a preview of the 3rd Missing Link in the upcoming book, “The 7 Missing Links to Abundant & Sustainable Health”. One of my favorite Spirit Downloads of all time!  In case you missed the first 2, you can find them here:
https://www.foodrevelation.com/blog/

Enjoy!

This revelation began with a question from Spirit. That was something new! I was about to be given a huge piece of the “chronic dis-ease” puzzle. I heard, “Gail, have you ever wondered why you do not see a lot of dead animals laying around? They are dying all at time.”   And the answer came…

When the body’s natural balance is upset, life deteriorates; it becomes diseased – it decays. When soil is out of balance it cannot sustain life.   When the ocean and seas are out of balance, they cannot sustain life. When any “body” in nature is out of balance, it cannot sustain its life.

When life cannot be sustained, Mother Nature is very proficient at cleaning up after the dead and decaying. It’s a messy job, but someone has got to do it. I didn’t realize how messy death is, until I had the unique experience of cleaning up after the death of a loved one who died in his apartment and wasn’t found for weeks. What a stinky mess!

While some animals and birds will dine on decaying flesh, most like it fresh. Mother Nature’s primary waste management team consists of fungi, bacteria, and parasites…the smallest critters on earth. And, don’t they do a fine job! It is amazing how fast a dead squirrel or rabbit disappears from my backyard. The bigger the body, the longer it takes to decompose. All bodies in decay, plant or animal, provide perfect nourishment for new life. And the circle of life continues…

Have you ever wondered why an animal will abandon a sick baby or why a dying animal wants to be outside? They instinctively understand this natural process.

The balance between prey and predator is part of Nature’s Perfect Plan. Ironically, the human body’s natural predators are the smallest creations on earth.

As stated in Missing Link #2, the imbalance begins at the energetic level…the thought level. “Acidic Thoughts” result in an acidic body. Acid burns flesh and leads to deterioration. If the imbalance is not addressed at the energetic level, more dis-ease results…a louder message, and more pain.

Many treatments only “shoot the messenger” – They ease the pain by quieting the symptoms. By only focusing on easing the pain, the original message (the imbalance) never gets delivered, the fire is never put out, the corrections are never made and the body decays.

Chronic Dis-ease is just a slow path to death. All of life is in strive, thrive, or decay mode. Life does not stand still…. When we are in decay mode, we have signaled Mother Nature’s clean up team that a smorgasbord awaits. When we are in thrive mode, these critters will have to find sustenance elsewhere. And they do because all bodies in nature are striving for life – NOT death. The subject of the next missing link. Stay Tuned…

The critter is just a messenger. You could say it’s your friend, as it has come to save your life. While undesirable and sometimes painful, they are sending us an important message; a life-sustaining message. Without a symptom or a sign of dis-ease, how would we know? It’s up to us to receive the message and correct the imbalance.

We may have an expiration date, that’s open to debate, but we do not have to suffer years of painful, chronic dis-ease.

Finding our balance begins at the thought level and is supported by Mother Nature. The body is a reflection of what we eat and “Think”. Mother Nature has provided us with the perfect toolkit for maintenance and repair. These miraculous bodies we inhabit have been endowed with the power to rejuvenate and regenerate. Yes! If you have ever skinned a knee, broken a bone or healed from a surgery, you know already the body knows how to heal itself. When what we eat and think comes into alignment with health and well-being, the body is unstoppable until its usefulness is fulfilled.

Welcome to the Evolution of Free Health where we leave the prison of the mind and chronic dis-ease behind.

Missing Link #2: Preview from the Evolution of Free Health Book Series

Today I’m sharing a preview of the 2^nd Missing Link in the upcoming book, “The 7 Missing Links to Abundant & Sustainable Health”. In case you missed it, here is Missing Link #1:  “Time does not stand still and neither do our bodies”

This 2^nd book in the Evolution of Free Health series has been writing itself over the years. Many of you reading this now have been an integral part of the revealing of these big revelations, received over the first 7 years, as you worked with me and the Food IS Talking intuitive food compatibility charts. If it were not for you, the book would not exist. Thank you!

Okay…Here goes!

The 2^nd Missing Link to Abundant and Sustainable Health:

“The body is a reflection of what we eat and “think”.  Primarily what we think. We can improve our health with food, but if at the root of chronic dis-ease is what you think, this will only be a temporary fix. The root will have to be addressed to have lasting resolution. The root of chronic dis-ease is always energetic; energy we can’t see, like thoughts and emotions.

Ease or dis-ease is how the body responds to the energy of our thoughts and emotions. The physical body is also energy. Everything is energy for that matter…that’s the science. A healthy body is much lighter energy than a sick body. If everything is energy then everything is malleable and pliable. This is really good news! As the body “lightens up” energetically, it comes more in alignment with the spiritual body and closer to “Living Truth”.

The 2^nd Missing Link revealed itself while working with my first “mainstream” clients; meaning they were not into the metaphysical or knew very much about alternative healing modalities. They were just regular folks, working regular jobs, some of them extremely demanding; for instance, in the service industry or in sales. Some were doctors.

What I noticed working with them over the course of several food charts, some were benefiting from the food charts faster than others.

Science has proven that stress has a huge impact on the body.
I understood from my own healing/awakening experience (they are one and the same) it is our conscious and “unconscious” thoughts that are at the root of stress. Unless you are in real imminent danger, the so-called stressful event is reminding you of past stressful events or what you learned to be afraid of. Your body is re-acting regardless if the threat is real or imagined.

The clients that had the most stress were the ones that were still struggling even as they worked the food charts consistently. Even with their best efforts to correct negative conscious thinking, what was running in the background was holding them down.

Early in my “Intuitive Chef” journey I had Divine Help seeing the unconscious thoughts that were holding me down and affecting my health and my ability to be present. Apparently, it was vitally important I got this! Spirit would often pop my left ear to tell me to pay attention to what I was thinking. I was thinking A LOT about what I didn’t want…unconsciously.   I used the “One Minute Meditation” tool I’ve shared with many of you to clear my own mind from unhealthy, negative unconscious thinking.   My body responded and continued to heal as I worked through my own food charts until I was free from the chronic dis-ease; digestion issues, constipation, migraines, angina, high blood pressure, I had suffered with for years. Some of these were “cord energies” that didn’t even belong to me!

What I did not understand yet, was “how” our thoughts were creating stress on the body.  I got it was important for me know this to better help my clients move into “healing mode”. Remember the 1^st Missing Link?  “Time does not stand still and neither do our bodies”. They are in decay mode, detox mode, healing mode or thriving mode at any given time. What we eat and “think” determines the mode.

One of my Spiritual Gifts, is the gift of seeing. And one of my specialties is seeing numbers. NO, it does not work for gambling…tried that!   But it does work for virtually everything else for Highest Best Good. For instance, I can see the exact pH of the body.  I can know how many pounds of toxin-related fat a client’s body is holding on to (explanation below). Oftentimes, it is the exact pounds they cannot lose no matter what they do.

From my Naturopath, I already knew how vitally important pH balance was in healing and maintaining health. When the body pH matches the blood pH (between 7.35 and 7.45) the body and every organ is in perfect balance and in “thrive mode”. Getting my client’s body pH was a part of every client session. It helped me to track their progress. It didn’t take me long to put 2 and 2 together…

Those clients that were under the most stress had the lowest pH numbers.  How can that be when they were following the food charts and eating mostly, if not all alkaline foods to bring their body back into balance? I got it!  Their body was producing acid in response to “acidic”, stressful thoughts, which made it impossible to sustain a healthy pH.

My clients had actually guided me to the “root” of most dis-ease and the solution!

The body will always let us know when what we are “thinking” and/or doing (like eating) is out of alignment with health and well-being.

The solution is always found at the root of a problem or what I like to call a “situation”. They mirror one another exactly. For instance, if at the root of chronic dis-ease is what we eat and think, then the solution must also be what we eat and think. It’s simple. I love this quote from Einstein…

“If the solution is simple, God is answering”

This excess acid was causing inflammation in the body. It was burning the body. Inflammation means there is a fire in the house! You have to put the fire out before the body can actually heal. Makes sense!

Spirit provided the rest of the picture…literally.  I was shown a “river rock” to further explain how the body was responding to excess acid. The message…

1. The body cannot effectively hydrate.  If you drink a lot of water, you pee a lot. And often the urine is clear; a sign you are flushing out critical electrolytes which leads to dehydration. Dry skin; dry thinning hair and getting up to go to the bathroom multiple times at night, sleep issues, are some of the signs your body is acidic.

2. It cannot absorb nutrients effectively, leading to malnourishment.  I got as well, that obesity is often a sign of malnourishment. We experience hunger for a reason…it lets us know we need nourishment. When we are not nourished, we stay hungry and eat too many calories.

3. The body also cannot release toxins. Toxins are stored in the fat cells. Where you have the most fat cells are where you will see an accumulation of fat when storing toxins.   For most people that is around the middle. You can diet and lose weight, much of the time where you don’t want or lose muscle and still have a layer of fluff around the middle. As soon as you stop the diet, you gain back the weight and then some. Can you relate? You cannot lose this toxin-related fat until your pH is corrected.

In a nutshell, when you are in acidic mode, your body is stuck. And, that is not all that is happening. You are aslo in “decay mode”. Stay tuned for Missing Link 3 & 4.

The focus of my work with clients drastically shifted with this revelation from food being the number one priority to uncovering the root cause.   When the root is uncovered and corrections are made at that level, the body is free to heal. It just needs the right tool kit. The Intuitive Food Charts provide the tool kit to bring each unique body into balance, then into detox mode and finally into thrive mode…our natural way of being.

There are other energetic root causes to chronic dis-ease as many of you are aware. But over the course of 13 years and thousands of food charts it has become clear, our thoughts are the most common root cause.

Of course, there is a purpose and Divine Timing wrapped around each of these 7 revelations. The 2^nd Missing Link is knocking hard on the door of the 7^th. The body is a messenger…

It is so hard for me not to jump ahead since I know the story and many of you do too!   So, I’ll leave it here…

Welcome to the Evolution of Free Health where we leave the prison of the mind and chronic dis-ease behind.

Feeling Anxious? Stop, Breathe and Drop!

When people first seek me out to help them get to the root of their dis-ease, what comes up often is breath work. As soon as I get this message, I know chronic stress is an issue. They have forgotten how to breathe. How is that possible? It’s not only possible, it’s common.

Watch a baby or an animal breathe. When they inhale, the belly expands. For many, this is not what is happening. Take a deep breath right now. Pay attention to what expands. The chest? The diaphragm? Do your shoulders come up? Does your belly constrict?

I had forgotten how to breathe. This can happen when we are chronically stressed out. Or, like me, you may have been taught, as a woman, it is not at all ladylike to let you belly pooch out. Or, a combo of both.

When under stress your first response may be to hold your breath. I remember, when I started practicing yoga in 2007, how hard it was to breath correctly. Thank goodness I stuck with it! Still, when under stress, breathing hasn’t always been my first response. It is a necessary response to stress if you want peace.

“If you can breathe through life – You can breeze through life.”

You may be holding your breath more than you realize, cutting off frequently the very source of life, causing the body distress.

Unless you or a loved one is in imminent danger or you are about to hurl yourself out of an airplane, or ski down a black diamond slope for the first time, your anxiety is probably based in past experience. The moment at hand is just reminding you of what you have “learned” to be afraid of, and your thoughts are taking you down a rabbit hole of fear or judgment.

If you are not in real danger, anxiety is the body’s way of saying you are thinking about what you do not want and are afraid you might get it. It has been proven your body responds the same to a real or imagined threat.

Systems shut down to conserve energy and adrenalin is released, all to get your body ready for fight of flight. A system that was divinely designed to save your life, in the rare occurrence that you may really be in danger, has become a way of life. Chronic stress is telling you that you are focused on what you DO NOT want much of the time.

And sometimes the thoughts that are causing the stress don’t even belong to us; that goes for many of my clients that are healing facilitators. If you are reading this, you may be one. These individuals are very sensitive empaths…sponges. Empaths possess an amazing gift that can feel like a curse when there is no barrier and no break from the bombardment of energy all around. This is the root cause of life-long digestive dis-ease for many gifted empaths. They cannot digest the scope and magnitude of the information coming in. There is a way to receive what you need to know without receiving all the rest. Reach out for more info.

“When the root cause is uncovered, so are the solutions.”

Sometimes the thoughts are just a bad habit. So ingrained, like any other bad habit, you may not even be aware you are thinking these negative fearful thoughts.

Regardless of the source of negative, stressful thoughts, the result is the same…anxiety and dis-ease.

There are ways you can nip stress in the bud, before it wreaks havoc on your body.

Before you do anything! Stop, breathe, and drop!

1. Stop what you are thinking and doing immediately. Be still. Take a big deep breath with the intention of clearing your head and any non-beneficial energy you may have attracted. Yes, whatever you are putting out there, you are attracting.

The breath serves many purposes besides keeping us alive. It has the capacity to clear our head. How many have heard this saying, “Take a deep breath and count to 10”.

With intention, it can clear non-beneficial energy. It brings us into the peaceful present.

Our breath has the power to lower our blood pressure, raise our pH, and regulate systems in our body. It is a healing force.

In serves in other mysterious and magical ways as well. I’ll save those for another time.

The book Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art by James Nestor is a fascinating read. In the back of the book are many, breathing techniques serving different purposes.

The breath always tells us when we are anxious. It is one of our first signs. It is hard to take a deep breath. Or, we may even hold our breath, compounding stress. A panic attack is a good example of stress that is out of control. Simply taking a deep belly breath at the first sign of stress can stop stress in it tracks.

2. Drop your roots and ground:Being ungrounded means your energetic body is not quite grounded in your physical body. This happens under high stress and high excitement…like jumping out of an airplane or riding the high of a roller coaster. It happens at night in our sleep and with drugs and alcohol. Extreme ungroundedness can result in passing out, seizures and blackouts.

Take your shoes off. Place all your attention on your feet meeting the surface under them. Feel the sensation of being supported. I love this visual grounding technique passed down from my mentor:

See your pure white roots growing from your feet like a tree. Drop them deep into Mother Earth connecting with a ball of white light at her core. You should start to feel heavy in your feet or lower extremities. Your feet may even tingle. Enjoy the sense of calm and stillness that comes with being grounded. Remember how it feels, so you know when you are not grounded.

3. Protection: See a bubble of the brightest white light you can imagine coming around you, encompassing your body and entire energy field (if you have been introduced to your Sword, you may use it for this). This light you see around you is your protection…Source Love. I call it the Armor of God. Sit and experience how it feels to be secure in this embrace so you know when you are not protected.

Once you are clear, grounded and protected you are ready to question what has caused the stress. Is it your own “stinkin thinkin” as my mentor calls it? Does it belong to someone else? If it belongs to you, you now have a chance to heal a sore spot or begin to break a bad habit.

Welcome to the Evolution of Free Health where we leave the prison of the mind and chronic dis-ease behind.

What is the brain for anyway?

A client asked me this question the other day as we were discussing “Living Divinely Guided”. “What is our brain for?” This is the first thing that flowed into my mind immediately and of course it came out as a rhyme:

“Our brain is for following through on what Spirit wants us to do.”

Sweet answer! There is a Higher Purpose and Plan for our lives. Our Spirit; or Higher Self knows its connection to Source Good/God and knows exactly what is good for us and how to guide us there. Our ego only “thinks” it knows. We are connected to the Source of All Knowledge. We can save ourselves a LOT of trouble by going to the Source.

Some may call accessing this Higher Knowledge intuition. Honing your natural intuitive skills is part of it; a step. At some point you will become a channel for the free-flow of information available from Source as you open your mind and heart to it. Decluttering the mind and body helps.

My “Protocol” that guides me in client sessions is a good example of the difference between intuition and channeling. The information there has drastically expanded over the years, but it is still limited by what I have experienced or know so far. I am “intuiting” from a known list (field). The last question I ask is, “What else is possible?” This is where Spirit lets me know there is more to get. At that point, I sit still, listen and receive.

Our mind is for receiving.

Artists understand very well how this works. They receive inspiration and use a combination of learned skills and inborn gifts to bring this inspired idea onto the canvas or media of choice. Most artists are very intuitive. It is over-thinking that often clogs the wheel of the creative process.

Many times, at least in my case, we don’t know how to do something or get stuck. Spirit will come to the rescue as we ask. We can be guided into what we need to know to carry out a task. Where to look, or a short cut, may come to you out of the blue. You can tell when “you” thought of something and something just arrived. Over the years, I’m still awe-struck every time it happens.

Our brain is for creating. This is what thinking is for…

We are creators. We cannot NOT create. It is a gift unique to the human animal. Lower animals do not create anything but their nest, webs, etc. They live in the present moment and respond (not react) to imminent danger. Some animals are more intelligent and do suffer from “thinking”. Thinking is our gift but can feel like a curse when it is fear-based.

“It is our thinking mind that keeps us in a bind”.

We create by what we focus on. We have been creating unconsciously, out of fear for eons. We have collectively created much to fear. Worry, fear and managing the resulting chronic dis-ease has become a way of life for many.

“Our brain supports our dreams. Our mind can destroy them.”

We don’t have to figure everything out. And worry won’t make it happen. Someone said, “Worry is praying for what you don’t want”. As we remember who we are and our connection, we know longer need to rely only on our learned knowledge or worry about the future. We all have the ability to “live guided”; to know what the next best step or right action is. It is our natural way.

“If you are ahead of the next step – you are just in your head.”

This is how we get overwhelmed and stress out. Can you relate? I can! All we need to know is the next step. When we take it, Spirit will show us the next one. You may be, probably will be, totally blown away at where you arrive! I was and still am!

Can you imagine the freedom of not having to rely on your mind to make a decision…big or small? I can tell you from experience it is the only peaceful way to live. We were born to live free; worry-free like all animals. And we did until our natural way of living was taught out of us. We are now, in droves, finding our way back to our Self and joyfully experiencing life rather than being at the mercy of it.

To become a clear conduit and fully conscious creator, all unconscious thinking must be brought into the conscious mind, where you have a choice; and all wounds must be healed. Until then the body and mind will respond to the past rather than the present moment.

For instance, in a food compatibility session your body may say green peas are compatible, but you associate green peas with a bad experience as a child. Even though your body is saying yes, your mind is saying NO. Your body will respond to the NO.

Even as an adult, we can let our mind override our body. Let’s say an expert told you a certain food was bad for you years ago and you haven’t tried it since. You recorded that in your memory banks. So even though your body is saying you can have it now, your mind remembers the NO. Your body will react to what you think. That is the Placebo Effect.

The Good News! We can bypass the mind while we continue the work of decluttering it of negative, unconscious thinking and healing old wounds.

Reach out if you are interested in further exploring how you can become a clear channel and conscious creator. It is our destiny. I have created “A Course in Discernment” for those that are ready to “Live Guided”.

We are quickly entering into the Evolution of Free Health where we leave the prison of our mind
and chronic disease behind.

Gail’s Fun Creation Story

In January I bought a new computer from Amazon to place my ancient one. It arrived and was set up with ease, joy, and glory. It didn’t take long to realize it had some major issues; randomly shutting down and file indexing problems.

My wonderful team at Invisus went way beyond the call of duty to try to solve these issues. I cannot recommend them enough. Do you like getting a real person that can really help you on the line on the first ring? If you love good customer service as much as I do, check them out. Ask for Sam – he is amazing!

We concluded this was a hardware issue and it would be best to send the computer back. Somehow, I missed the 30-day deadline to send it back to Amazon. So much easier. So, I had to send it back to the supplier. They were awesome too and sent me a RMA label right away. My son came over and helped me get it packed up. Thank goodness I kept all the packaging!

Now the fun starts…

I arrange a pickup online for a Wednesday with instructions for the driver to ring the doorbell. Late afternoon I get an email that my pickup has been completed and I’m given a tracking number. The pickup did not happen. I still had the computer.

I get a hold of a live person at UPS (not an easy feat) and convinced them the computer was not picked up. They agreed to send out the driver again the next day. It was raining cats and dogs when he arrived. The front walk was flooded so he had to come around to the driveway. I had the box ready to go at the end of the carport so he could load it up without getting too wet. It all happened in a flash. As soon as he pulled away, I realized he did not scan the label. They always scan the package! Otherwise, it will not be in the system and not traceable. My mind is already spinning on WHAT I DON’T WANT.

I go through the rig-a-ma-row to get UPS on the line again. They assured me since it was later in the day, the pickup confirmation and tracking number would show up in the system the next day. It did not. 4 days later I still did not have a tracking number. I realized what I had done! I created perfectly what I DID NOT WANT!

I went to my dad laughing my butt off and explained what had happened. He was worrying about it too. He understood very well what I had done. I can’t count how many times I’ve said to him, “Think about what you want – Not what you don’t!” He totally gets it, but has had a hard time breaking the habit of worry. Apparently, I have not totally broken the habit either!

Now, it was time to undo this! I just need to change my focus. “One Command” was introduced to me early on in my healing journey. It is one of the most powerful manifestation tools I’ve ever used to align with what I want. I think of it as a form of prayer. I’m aligning with the good that is already waiting for me. I don’t get too specific. For instance, I just want the situation resolved. I don’t know how that will happen and I surely don’t want to get in the way. So, I set this intention, “This or better please.” Sometimes God’s Good shows up in unexpected ways…

This was my One Command that day, “I don’t know how this situation gets resolved with ease, joy, and glory, I only know it does now!And, I am grateful and fulfilled.”

Here is the link to read more about this magical tool and the creator.

Another call to UPS and I was finally connected to someone in Dallas. They explained to me the seller would have to file a claim since this was picked up on an RMA, something no one up to that point had mentioned. That made since to me.

Then I find myself thinking, “Okay, there is no proof the package was ever picked up from me and I’m at the mercy of the seller to file a claim. It looks like I may be out $950 dollars”. There I go again! Thinking about WHAT I DON’T WANT …LOL. It seems the more dollars at stake the more there is to worry about. Money always gets our goat…right?

I was aware immediately of what I was thinking. I reminded myself this situation is already resolved and took a deep breath and let it go…the breath and the worry.

I had been chatting online with the seller’s customer service rep and was guided to find a telephone number and pick up the phone. The nicest person answered right away. No hold, no transfer. It was late Friday and he suggested we wait until the following Tuesday to start a claim in case it showed up late Monday.

There was still no tracking number in the system when I called Tuesday morning. He put me on hold to go check with the receiving dept on the off chance it had arrived and wasn’t scanned when received. It did arrive that very morning! A miracle! Without a tracking number, this package could have been in limbo no telling how long!

The nice person told me a credit would be issued to my credit card in about 5 working days. Another miracle… The credit showed up that Sunday (a non-working day).

It’s amazing how easy it is to fall into the old habit of fear even when you know how it works! I’m not sure why this happened other than to test me and provide me with a really good story! A great one for the Monthly Miracle Board hanging on the refrigerator. Have you got one yet?

Happy Creating!

7 Missing Links to Abundant and Sustainable Health: Missing Link #1

Okay! it is time…finally! My website and newsletter are being re-vamped, I’m getting all my ducks in a row in anticipation of the launch of the second book in the Evolution of Free Health series. Progress on this has been stalled several times over the years. Life happens and change happens…right? Ironically, that is the subject of today’s post. And…Divine Timing is always perfect!

My “Intuitive Chef” journey began with foodRevelation.com in 2012 and the “FoodISTalking” Intuitive Food Compatibility charts. Like all journeys the road did not stop there. 12 years have gone by already! It has certainly been a wild ride, packed full of revelations! I share these “Divine Downloads” here at Revelations & Recipes; the new name for my blog that is also a book in the making.

Over the first 7 years of this journey, I had 7 BIG reveals. I call these, The 7 Missing Links to Abundant and Sustainable Health, the title of my next book in the Evolution of Free Health series. The first one I released in a cookbook format, Quinoa Cookbook Journey. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSY3XGP/

Some of these missing links are so logical, you will wonder as I did, how we could possibly forget some very basic, simple Truths, like the one I’m about to share. And, then some of them are mind-blowing and life-altering.

I will be sharing all 7 of these missing links with my clients and readers over the next few months. If you feel inspired, please share these with others! We are moving out of the Evolution of Dis-ease and quickly into the Evolution of Free Health!

The first Missing Link arrived early on as I worked through multiple “FoodISTalking” Intuitive Food Compatible charts with clients. It became apparent that what the body needs is constantly changing. Imagine that! We’ve all heard the old saying, “The only thing we can count on is death and taxes.” In reality, the only thing we can truly count on…is change.

It is easy to forget this simple truth when we find ourselves in a challenging situation…

“Time does not stand still and neither do our bodies or our experiences.”

This means not one good food or one “so-called” bad food could possibly be good or bad for every “body” all the time. Food compatibility changes as change happens.

For instance, the world says raw food is great for you! However, if you have a serious digestive issue like diverticulitis or a leaky gut, raw food could send you to the hospital. This is what happened to my sister-in-law when she was listening to the so-called experts tout the benefits of a raw food diet. She didn’t know she had diverticulitis.

Let’s say your life just delivered you a boat load of change, like an injury or illness. Or, you become pregnant, or get fired from your job, or move to another country. Or maybe your suddenly inspired to become a body builder. Your nutritional needs will change…sometimes drastically!

If you eat too much of any one food, it may become temporarily incompatible or “on the line” of compatibility. This comes up often with the intuitive food charts (it happens also when you don’t like something). The food chart tells us what you’ve been eating too much of. It’s saying, “I don’t need any more of that.” If you keep eating what you don’t need you will develop a food sensitivity. If you leave this food out for a while, it will come back into compatibility. We could see this if the food sensitivity test (like the Alcat) were run more often. But they are expensive and insurance would not pay for it.

Any blood work or test is just a snap shot in time.

A diagnosis is just a label to describe a symptom that Is currently happening so a medication can be prescribed. Without a label and insurance code, the insurance company will not pay for the medication. Your diagnosis can change and become obsolete based on the action you take.

Not one good healing modality, medicine, natural remedy, or dosage is good for every body all the time.

Not one good healing facilitator (even me) is perfect for everyone.
And the list goes on and on…

We are unique individuals and so are our bodies. A “one-size-fits-all” approach to health is never going to work for every “body.” Your body has requirements and solutions that are unique to you.

Our bodies are in decay mode, detox mode, healing mode or thriving mode. But they do not stand still. What we eat and “think” largely determines the mode we are in at any given time…the topic of the next Missing Link.

The good news? With every change comes opportunity for healing and growth.
