EFR 370: Primary Foods to Feed the Soul and Establish Healthful Living with May Yazdi Chewning
In today's episode of the show I and my wife, May, RN BSN, discuss one of the pillars of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition's model of healthful living, primary foods. Primary foods, such as physical activity, career, spirituality, and relationships are "foods" that feed our soul and satisfy our hunger for life. There are twelve primary foods that are constantly fluctuating and adjusting as we adjust through the various phases of our lives. These foods include: joy, spirituality, creativity, finances, career, education, health, physical activity, home cooking, home environment, relationships, and social life. As we navigate through our health journey and coach our clients and patients through their own individualized processes, we may notice these concepts ebb and flow, which is not only normal, but healthy! In this episode we hone in on some of the more difficult to grasp concepts: joy, creativity, and home environment and provide examples and methods of ways to activate these practices into our everyday lives. As we continue on this podcast (and our own journeys) we will dig in deeper to this concept of primary food and unveil its importance on our quality of life.
