ARTICLE OF THE MONTH
THE PHILOSOPHY OF YIN AND YANG
© 2011 Gabriele Kushi

Nature’s principle is constant change. The relationships between these ever-changing energies of the universe, the yin (expanding energy) and yang (contracting energy), are forces, which influence our lives. Macrobiotics brings awareness to these universal forces and helps us to understand and use them to achieve what we all want: health, peace, happiness, and a long life full of prosperity and vitality.
Macrobiotics yin yang approach to natural foods is based on traditional formulation with the principle of balance, using foods that work in support of one another and to realign natural energies and promote health and well being. These macrobiotic yin/yang guidelines can assist us in balancing our natural cycles with seasonal foods that are inherent in nutrients like phyto-oestrogen, calcium, vitamins, minerals, complex carbohydrates, and proteins.
