I have been enjoying the Iplayer TV series 'Eat well for less' with Greg Wallace of Masterchef fame. Together with a partner in crime he goes out to help families whose food spending is out of whack and helps them not only save money but also eat a more nutritionally dense diet.
On a side note, they do taste tests with the general public and with the families they are working with- they remove all packaging from their food, replace it with generic plain wrapping (so they don't know the brand they'll be using) and either: keep the food product exactly the same as the family has been using for years, change it to a cheaper brand or sometimes a more expensive product, if the need calls for it. Without fail- with some of the products that have stayed exactly the same, the family cannot identify it- even if they been eating/drinking it every day for the last decade! They declare that it probably is some inferior supermarket own produce. And also, it's amazing the impact of packaging and brands has on us, our perception and choices- don't judge a food by its cover!
Anyhoo, my main point, was that on one of the shows, the presenter helped cook a healthy meal with the mother and when they fed the children, they asked one of her young sons if he liked it. He replied that it was yummy and he thought the chard salad was delicious. To which his mother replied 'You can be honest you know, you don't need to lie' type thing. He repeated that it was yummy, to which she repeated that he didn't need to lie and could be honest, to which he responded 'OK... I don't like it at all!'
I thought that was quite funny, as he didn't appear evasive or that he was lying at all, plus it was quite an innocuous question. But his mother, like the Universe, knew his true vibration!
And it can be like that with us- we may offer the happy, clappy, chappy words and affirmations but if we're not being true to how we feel, then it can't work! The Universe can only bring us what is a match to what really is going on within us. In other words, we'd like you to accept how you are feeling, don't stick a fake smiley face sticker over it and from that place of realness, seek to feel better from where you are, wherever you are.
We want you to be connected to how you really feel and not how you think we would like you to feel, or how you think you should be feeling. But how you are honestly feeling. Identify where you are on the emotional guidance scale and seek to improve it just a little bit- depression to anger to frustration to hope to joy, love and appreciation. But only when you're ready- you have that choice, that is self empowerment after all. Choosing what to do and when to do it!!!
So there you go, be realness peoples!!!
All is well, no matter where you are vibrating!!!
Happy Chard-ing!!!
Lots of love, Nick Xxx
