The Longevity Diet
We’re living in the middle of one of the worst health epidemics of all times. Heart disease, cancer, autism, diabetes, arthritis, depression and obesity are all conditions that are directly linked to diet. What happened? How did we lose the intuition required to eat healthy?

Of all the ways we are experiencing this pandemic, one possibility is finding ourselves with a new or strengthened resolve to prioritise our wellness - physically, emotionally and mentally.
An understanding of the interconnectedness of our bodies, minds and spirits, and of the tools we have to cultivate health and prevent or mitigate illness, is at the foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine and of our Healing Nutrition curriculum at AHN.
For some of us, this is the first time we have considered the impact upon our health of our habitual food choices. Now is just the beginning 🌱 #AcademyHealingNutrition #longevitydiet #TCM #ayurveda

Nature’s perpetual cycles demonstrate that seasons of contraction give rise to those of expansion, that night gives way to day, that the seeming desolation of winter transforms into the opportunity for re-creation in the spring.
We can embody this understanding as we dream up what we want to grow in this new world to come, what seeds of change we wish to plant, to use a familiar phrase. How do we want to be in relationship to each other, going forwards? Can we re-imagine systems that genuinely prioritize the well-being and dignity of all of us, and acknowledge our interconnectedness and responsibilities towards each other, and the earth?
What latent, creative solutions and powers are within us, awaiting awakening? 🧚🏻♂️🧘♀️🌱 #AcademyHealingNutrition #LongevityDiet #TCM #Ayurveda

Tending to the Liver: we are cleansing our physical and emotional selves.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the smooth flow of energy, or Qi, that our creative force depends upon, is regulated by our liver. The liver also has an affinity, in TCM, with the green, upward, and outward movement of a sprout or sapling. Spring, therefore, is the time of year where we focus on refreshing the health of this vital organ system.
Physically, be gentle to your Liver now, consider it like a tender green shoot that must be protected. It is wise to avoid the stressors of fried, or overly rich or spicy foods, to minimize stimulants like caffeine and alcohol - to ease what the Liver must process.
Instead, spring greens - dandelion, watercress, chard, lettuces, sprouts, and arugula - will help purify the Liver-Gallbladder. Radishes reduce phlegm and improve circulation; leeks and green onions cleanse the blood. It is a bit too soon for full-on cleansing or fasting in unstable weather and circumstances. However, it is acceptable to start incorporating some of these fresh, raw foods, if available to you, especially in the same meal as a bowl of soothing miso soup.
Finally, it is the taste of sour foods that nourishes the Liver-Gallbladder system. Lemon juice or apple cider vinegar with warm water in the morning is especially useful for keeping things moving. 🧚🏻♂️🧘♀️🌱 #AcademyHealingNutrition #longevitydiet #TCM #ayurveda

We believe in a just world for all beings on earth, and acknowledge that our school wouldn’t exist without the wisdom + contributions of many people—including many Black, Indigenous & POC communities, who have long been at the receiving end of state-sanctioned violence across the globe.
Our hearts are with everyone daring to speak, live, and demand a more just world into existence.
We will continue to serve from where we can, and believe divesting in racist systems, while investing in diverse, equitable & inclusive systems, is vital for a healthy, sustainable planet and future.

Lets talk about Breakfast: the incredibly important first meal of the day.
A typical approach to breakfast, for many of us, has us quickly eating something cold and primarily sugary, a habit that depletes our digestion and allows excessive dampness, or stagnation of fluids, within us, a fertile ground for dis-ease.
Our program offers education on more nourishing ways to begin the day! One of our recipes for Oat Porridge will be posted soon, stay tuned 😉 🌱 #AcademyHealingNutrition #LongevityDiet #TCM #Ayurveda

Tonic herbs, mushrooms, and superfoods have been used for thousands of years in Chinese and Ayurvedic Medicine to increase vitality, strengthen bodily systems and organs, nurture the spirit, and enhance longevity.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, radiant health is our ability to adapt appropriately and effectively to all the challenges and changes of life.
Tonic herbs, which often provide more antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals than most foods, nourish this adaptive energy, this resilience.
They are not used to treat specific illnesses; on the contrary, we should abstain from tonic herbs while ill. Instead, they fortify our overall well-being - physically, emotionally, and spiritually - by working upon what TCM recognizes as the Three Treasures.
The Three Treasures describe the total energies within us.
They are known as:
~Jing (our inherited constitution or life force, our essence).
~Qi (our day-to-day vitality and protective energy that determines how well we adapt to the world around us). ~Shen (our spirit, the spark of divinity that resides in our heart and opens us to the joy of life). 🧚🏻♂️🧘♀️🌱 #AcademyHealingNutrition #LongevityDiet #TCM #Ayurveda
