Beyond Survival: Reclaiming Your Original Design
This is the introductory article to our blog on
How to be physically, mentally, and emotionally healthier and re-attune with your inner self.
Nature is our mother, and conversely, our collective being helps to constitute her. Natural laws are universal. All organisms in nature are designed with their own particular needs, but they all share the basic necessities of nutrition, peace and rest, and physical activity. However, modern life has disconnected us from the essence of our original design, making us feel separated from our true origins.
We feel so busy that we have been trading adequate nutrition for convenience. We find ourselves in a cocoon of mental work, effectively surrendering physical activity for eight hours at a desk in front of a computer. Our idea of "relaxation" has become six hours in front of the television or laptop at home, while constantly monitoring our smartphones until we go to bed.
We not only lack the physical activity we need, but we also lack the mental rest that our minds and bodies require for good health. We have forgotten how to supply our basic needs properly. This has created a demand for products that are in tune with our fast-paced lifestyle; for example, fast food that has an unnatural shelf life, requires no cooking, and can be quickly consumed. These new products are meant to make money by targeting the demands of consumers with a rapid-paced lifestyle. They are designed to be cheaply mass-produced, addictive, and convenient.
Their goal is not to provide nutrition that provides quality energy and prevents disease. On the contrary, these products are full of substances that generate physical, mental, and emotional disease.
In addition, because of the lack of physical activity and the importance our society places on work over mental and physical needs, we find our body—our very own nature itself—in crisis. However, there is always good news. Nature has created us in such a perfect way that despite the fact that we are poisoning ourselves in various ways each day, WE SURVIVE!

Let’s imagine… How would your body perform if you took care of it? How would your mind perform if nourished properly? How would you feel about yourself if you knew that you were doing the right things for your health?
Let's face it: our technology is evolving, but our bodies are not. Today's children may have a shorter life expectancy than their parents. The responsibility for our health must stop lying on other people's shoulders; we must empower ourselves to create the future that we want for us and for our children.
This is the beginning of a guide founded on a scientific basis, but written in layman's terms, that shares knowledge on how to improve your quality of life in an organic, simple, and effective way by implementing our original design in the 21st century. We are designed to live, enjoy our lives, and be healthy and happy—not to survive despite ourselves merely. The difference between health and illness is typically simple but powerful information.
