The subtler one's awareness, the more powerfully it can heal.
Deepak ChopraRead
When you look at the whole package of energy, the food you eat should match the story you want to live, which means: as fresh as possible, without dullness, repetition, and routine. As colorful as possible, giving delight to the eyes; food is a rainbow brought down to earth. As cheerful as possible, maximizing moments of happiness and pleasure.
Interpretation
Choose your food to reflect the vibrant life you desire, keeping it fresh, colorful, and joyful.
Deepak Chopra emphasizes the importance of mindful eating by suggesting that our food choices should align with the vibrant and fulfilling life we wish to lead. By opting for fresh and colorful foods, we not only nourish our bodies but also enhance our overall happiness and pleasure, creating a joyful experience that mirrors the aesthetics of a rainbow.

And this accelerates to the point where you actually experience the miraculous.
I will practice acceptance. Today I will accept people, situations, circumstances, and events as they occur. I will know that this moment is as it should be, because the whole universe is as it should be. I will not struggle against the whole universe by struggling against this moment. My acceptance is total and complete. I accept things as they are this moment, not as I wish they were.
