Macropedia

Macrobiotics, as you may already know, is not a one-size-fits-all diet and cult, although many people see it that way. It’s more like a lens, to see the universe as it is, and enjoy the wisdom of nature’s plan, participating as you see fit for yourself.

There is so much suffering right now, which seems to be payment for using so much technology in our lives, to travel, communicate, play, work, treat disease, even grow “phude.” My dream is to help more people see that nature can do all these things for us, without the side effects.

I use Macrobiotics to prepare some of my meals, so that I can keep my body, mind and spirit in a place where I can fulfill my commitments to myself, my family, and the world, and also enjoy my life.

Macrobiotics should not be a chore, nor a way to judge others to a certain standard, or exclude them from the club. It’s just nature’s technology, which can be learned from a book, but is also available to each one of us by studying the world around us.

As the school year ends, I am creating an intention to teach my children (12 and 15) how to cook this summer, as we enjoy ourselves and decompress/heal from our recent difficulties. I know there are more challenges on the horizon, but showing my children how to take care of their bodies, and having a good time with them will give us all the energy to endure whatever comes our way.

May you have an easy summer, one filled with joy, rest and activities that have meaning for you. If there is any way I can help you, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

David L. Kagan
