Local nutrition and its molecular nature

Yesterday my son and I attended the Piermont farmers market to sell spring honey.

It's about a month earlier than I usually harvest honey, but the very early spring flow has been strong, and there was enough to put about 40 pounds of honey out on the market.

During the course of the day, I found myself answering many questions, as usual, and trying to explain why it's good to eat local products.

I often speak about the molecular nature of our being in The Morning Five centering podcast. And I frequently remind folks that in some senses my talk about this subject has an element of allegory in it, because the spiritual molecules in us are not quite the same thing as the physical ones that form our body. Nonetheless, our physical molecules are an absolute scientific fact—and they are an energetic reflection of the spiritual molecules that bind us together as beings within consciousness.

If we don't come into a new sensation of the molecular nature of our being, in the energetic, physical sense of our day-to-day lives, we never really see how we’re creatures of a molecular environment, and ultimately obedient to it whether we care about it or not.

Think of it this way. At this very moment, every molecule in every cell in your body is exquisitely attuned to directly sensing its environment. The cells in our body literally execute trillions of molecular operations per second in order to sense what's going on in us.
