Digestive Fire and Detoxification
Most of us have gone without food for one reason or another and experienced a very strong appetite as a result. Seems pretty straight forward and healthy, doesn't it? Don't eat and you get hungry.
But let's examine this process from an energy science medical model view. What happens from an biologic energy field perspective?
As you volitionally go without food for a period of time, the enzyme system of the gut(including the bacteria of the gut) collectively known as the digestive fire, ramps up since it is not being used by food. This creates increasing appetite since the energy field's transformative energy is increasing and appetite is an expression of the health of the mindbody's fire in the gut and how it deals with nourishment given to it.
But if you continue this process withholding food for several days, something very interesting occurs energetically. Since the fire is not being fed fuel(food), it begins to lessen in its intensity. This is similar to what happens with a campfire, right? If we don't feed the campfire any more wood, what happens? The fire becomes a glowing set of embers. Very hot but not the same kind of fire.
The embers of a campfire is analogous to the detoxification fire that begins the slow burning of undigested stagnant energy in the mindbody. In reality these islands of stagnant energy get heated up so that they can begin moving again and restore the free flow of energy in the physiology once again.
Soooo... here's to health energetically with a good healthy digestive fire! To Health as a Skill DrBill
