BROZKEFF: jj, namaceny semena a suchy plody jsou paradni - bohuzel si moc casto nevzpomenu dopredu, i kdyz posledni dobou ani kase moc nejim, je to na me nejak moc hutny, sladky, syty, nevim co presne... ale mam je moc rada treba do prilohovy obiloviny, do ras jako kondiment a tak podobne)

namočený semena jsou pro mě super (nechávm ve vodě přes noc a ráno sypu třeba do kaše) - slunečnice, mák, sezam, lísk.ořech, mandle atd. Luštěniny namáčím ale vařím :o)

zajímavé téma - jak vám tyhlety klíčený semena fungujou na trávení, živiny a celkovou pohodu? s pár lidma jsme se shodli, že nám to moc nevyhovuje - moje tělo vždycky hlásí, že je to jakoby nezralý, nic moc, prostě něco, co pro něj není moc dobrý. taky se z toho nafukuju... takže pro mě je to funkční spíš do záhonu než na konzumaci. ;)

nedávno jsme takhle měli na jógovým víkendu k jídlu denně klíčenej mix cizrna+čočka+mungo+takovýto červenobílý malý cosi a moc dobrej pocit jsem z toho neměla (viz výše) - ale pár lidí si to naopak pochvalovalo. naklíčenou povinnou výslužku jsem doma rozvařila do kaše se zeleninou, z části jsem udělala pučálku (ta mi chutnala naopak moc a problémy jsem po ní neměla).

VODA: hlavne zit ve sterilnim prostredi, pokud mozno od zacatku zivota sameho, aby nase organismy nemeli moznost si vybudovat imunitu. Pak se clovek nemuze divit, ze potrebujeme antibiotika, a podobne. Organismus si zrovnatak vybuduje imunitu pokud je virum, bakteriim, chladu a podobnym vystavovan v primerene mire.

DOTAZ, nechali byste ockovat vlastni nemluvne, bydlite-li ve meste?

ITCHYHEAD: a to bys ty krávy a kozy urazil:) pro pani je kráva zdrojem nežádoucích mikroorganismů a mlíko z vemínka, něco naprosto nepřijatelného. Zato nízkotučný v tetrapaku jest pramen zdraví, plnný vápníku a kvalitní bílkoviny, přece!:)

DARJEEL: diky, je dobre si toto pripominat!

KAREN: pani i prijde jak ministryne krav, koz a jim podobnych:)

VODA: jako takovoutu argumentaci, ze clovek by nemel jist zadny mliko, protoze neni tele, tak uplne nezeru - ale neprekvapilo by me, kdyby si ta pani vymejslela. pripada mi jako brejlata pani inzenyrka v plasti, co by mliko od kravky nebo kozy nekde na statku nevzala do ust;) zajimalo by me, co by k tem jejim informacim rekla treba takova Zuzka Ou. .)

VODA: jo, to jsem taky videla (a par dalsich dilu, nektery jsou docela zajimavy - je to takovy primocary, prepocty vyrobku na kostky cukru atd.) - "vydobytek naseho umu, ze muzeme konzumovat mleko jineho savce" ;)

málem jsem paní Jebavé uvěřila, když ona se tak upřímně směje:))

Spring Lifestyle

The energy of Spring is expansive and outward moving. It is time to start exercising and sweating more. Begin cooking and eating lighter meals. In wintertime we would tend to bake our food to more deeply warm our bodies. In the Spring steaming and stir-frying is more appropriate. It is beneficial to eat more leafy greens (kale, dandelion, collards, mint).

The sour flavor incorporated into the diet will help to balance the liver energy. Try to be conscious to include good oils into your meals (flax oil, sesame oil, olive oil). It is best to add these oils to already cooked food to preserve the quality. Eat what is locally grown and in season, as much as possible. It is important to be emotionally calm when eating, as well as to breathe deeply and thoroughly chewing our food. Drink lots of fluids (lemon can be added to water). The Spring is a great time of year to receive bodywork or acupuncture, in order to to facilitate the body in opening and relaxing.

Do your best to avoid toxicity in your foods and environment. Some things to avoid are: chemicals, drugs and alcohol; as well as refined sugars, processed foods, caffeine, large portions of meat, greasy and rich foods. Avoid stress! All of these are toxicities can impact and congest the liver.

Liver Patterns

When the liver energy is in balance we are able to make decisions and follow through with our creative visions. This is a great time of year to begin new projects. When the liver energy is deficient we may lack the ability to make decisions or follow through with them. On the contrary, when this energy is excessive we may become "work-aholics," so determined to accomplish our goals that we neglect our needs or our personal relationships.

Physically, this is a time to assess the health of our nails, tendons and eyes. Nails should be strong and smooth with good color; not brittle or grooved. Tendons should be supple, flexible and strong. The eyes should be clear and bright, without yellow or red in the whites. Emotionally we can assess our health by witnessing if we are able to express our emotions in a healthy way, especially anger.

Spring Treatment

When spring arises, if you begin to feel out of balance, it may be a good time to seek a Chinese Medicine treatment. A person may experience a variety of symptoms, such as: foggy thinking or forgetfulness; tendon tightness; blurry, red, or dry eyes; lethargy; dry skin, skin itch, or rash. In addition, a person can have rib-side pain (especially after eating while emotional), abdomen distention, diarrhea, or constipation. Emotionally the imbalance can often come as outbursts of anger or increased frustration.

Through harmonizing with the springs energy we begin to feel energized, light and open. With tendons supple and strong we can move easily through our day. With eyes clear and bright we can appreciate the beauty of spring. Enjoy your health and clarity this spring!

Spring

Spring is the season of new birth and new growth. According to TCM, spring belongs to the wood element and dominates liver functioning. If we don’t adapt to the changing climate in spring, we may susceptible to seasonal health problems, such as flu, pneumonia, or a relapse of chronic diseases. It is advisable to reduce the intake of sour flavors and increase sweet and pungent flavors as this facilitates the liver to regulate the qi (vital energy) throughout the body. Examples of recommended foods for the spring include onions, leeks, leaf mustard, Chinese yam, wheat, dates, cilantro, mushrooms, spinach and bamboo shoots. Fresh green and leafy vegetables should also be included in meals; sprouts from seeds are also valuable. In addition, uncooked, frozen and fried foods should only be taken in moderation since these are harmful to the spleen and stomach if consumed in large amounts. As cold winter keeps us indoors and tends to make us eat too much, people may develop a heat balance in the spring, which leads to dry throats, bad breath, constipation, thick tongue coating and yellowish urine. Foods like bananas, pears, water chestnuts, sugar cane, celery and cucumber help to clear the excessive heat.

DARJEEL: tak to chodí:))

VODA: shodou okolností jsem si dnes ráno četl text ze Tří svícnů za budouctnost (Vlašínová) o jedlých rostlinách a "plevelech" :))
