Saturday, July 18, at 5:00 PM please join us for a Macrobiotic Lecture, Application of the Five Transformations, How to Discharge Sweets & Dairy, following the Wrap it Up! Awesome Sandwiches & Wraps Macrobiotic Cooking Class at The Rueff Home, 1130 Trailridge Lane, Dunwoody, Georgia 30338

We learn studying macrobiotics how the effects of food we’ve eaten in the past does not just exit our bodies when we stop eating it. We all wish this were the case! Clients often say, Oh, I haven’t eaten cheese for over a year, how can you think it is affecting the arthritis in my knees? So, what do we do to expedite a change in our health, and reap the benefits of eating on a Macrobiotic Diet?

Just wait til you hear Warren’s lecture, How to Discharge Sweets & Dairy Applying the Five Transformations. His information will absolutely astound you! Applying macrobiotic principles, makes so much sense, and as Warren explains the energetics of the food, everything falls into place. Learning how to draw the effects of food out of your body gives you such freedom to restore your health, melt tumors, look and feel younger, and increase your energy tremendously. And you’ll understand the why of it all. I always introduce Warren as our why man – because he takes the time to explain and chart the rudimentary basis of this structure. The yin and yang of it all will surely play into this too!

And you can’t even begin to imagine how much better you will feel! Food tastes more delish than ever before! Yes, our taste buds change when we stop sugar and dairy. We develop a gourmet taste for real food and some items we’ve never before enjoyed. Macrobiotic cuisine isn’t bland or tasteless, but flavorful and delicious. We  still satisfy our sweet tooth using Suzanne’s Genmai Brown Rice Syrup and Barley Malt and sweet vegetables. You might even easily slim down in the process. One thing is for sure! There is almost no favorite dish you will have to do without. It’s surely been recreated in a macrobiotic recipe version to please your palate!

Warren will be suggesting actual dishes, and some home remedies, special drinks – certain combinations of foods, and your notes will reflect unique properties of these dishes.You will find this class very beneficial as Warren introduces you to a whole new level of macrobiotic cooking, broadening your understanding of the macrobiotic lifestyle.

Friday July 17, please join us for a special evening’s lecture, Menu Planning Essentials, July 17, 7:30-9 pm The Rueff Home, 1130 Trailridge Lane, Dunwoody, Georgia 30338

Always participants request this menu-planning class every time Warren visits. It truly is one of the most important lectures. Why? Because all the theory from macrobiotic books has to actually happen in the kitchen. In YOUR kitchen, to be exact. And Warren’s Menu Planning Class is key! Based on his years of working with Michio Kushi and Denny Waxman, Warren guides us step by step using the principles of yin and yang according to Macrobiotic guidelines. Involving our input in the process. Yes, this is an interactive lecture.

See it this way: we’re implementing a new way of eating, and especially considering we have health concerns to correct, eating well-planned meals becomes essential. The hit-or-miss-grab-whatever-is-ready-to-gulp-down when we come home from work is history. We can do better than being too famished and tired to cook. Now we want a welcoming meal, featuring the best food choices. Because now we know better. And now we are using macrobiotic principles to enhance our health and well-being. You see, macrobiotics is a way of eating based on the energetics of food. That is to say, it’s based on how the foods make us feel after we eat, and what kind of energy we have the next day, too. What kind of energy the food charges our bodies with. Way different than a calorie or carb or protein based diet like most of the new-fad diets circulating the last few years, don’t you think?

Your macrobiotic diet is very special, and Warren’s presentation of developing macrobiotic menus for you and your loved ones is truly an art, and it’s very easy to adapt. From this plan you will learn to shop for your week. Even how to substitute foods according to the season and what’s available organic. Plus you reap the benefits of being with this group and hearing their keen experiences cooking macrobiotic diet. Warren actually plans with the group a whole weeks worth of meals! Yep, we do it together, so turn your thinking cap on. You’re going to experience where to start when planning a meal, and the logical steps from there. It’s way different than you may think, much easier, and funner too!

You’re on a macrobiotic diet and you just ordered a beer? You’re having sake? But I thought you were on a macrobiotic diet? Did I see you having some wine, and you claim to eat so pure? Now I’m not going to believe anything you say about food anymore. Do you hear comments like these? I just did, and from a close family member.

A standard macrobiotic diet includes whole grain, beans, selected vegetables, soups, sea vegetables, sometimes recommended fish, seeds, nuts and fruit. And each category has special preparations. So why add alcoholic beverages to this healthy lifestyle? Is this hypocritical?

Not when we consider the yin and yang of it all, and how the macrobiotic diet is based on energetics – not calories, carbs, or weight. But how eating this food makes us feel. What is our energy like. Relaxing in this fast pace world is challenging, so we intentionally include relaxing foods and beverages.

Fruit kantens, pureed soups, warm fruit cooked in kuzu relax; try some warm apple juice, warm carrot juice and feel yourself relax deeper inside than biting into a cold apple. Sliced apples cooked in little apple juice is far sweeter and more relaxing too.

Sometimes a little stronger yin is called for, and that bit of warm sake relaxes our core being, or a glass of wine at your favorite Italian restaurant. Or, you’re out with friends at a local seafood restaurant – relax, enjoy a local beer with fish and chips. Why local beer? It aligns you with your environment. In fact, Warren Kramer suggests ordering local beer balances the yang of traveling. And it gets you in the groove of wherever you visit.

And when you want a milder yin? Adding apple juice to your bancha tea is very relaxing, or rice syrup. You can dilute the apple juice with water if you are limiting your fruit intake.

Sometimes try this special remedy drink, Ame Kuzu, which can actually be made three ways. Each achieves a stronger level of yin. The mildest is with rice syrup, a little stronger version uses barley malt, and the most yin is with apple juice. Warm and sweet, it relaxes your mind, settling down after a busy day, or having too much on your mind, and insures a good night sleep. Sometimes it’s an effective muscle relaxer.

The Ame Kuzu recipe is found in The Macrobiotic Path to Total Health, by Michio Kushi and Alex Jack, page 446.

• Dilute 1 teaspoon kuzu in 1 cup cold water
• Stir constantly over a medium flame, until the milky white liquid becomes transparent.
• Add 1-2 Tablespoons Suzanne’s Genmai Brown Rice Syrup
• Bring to a gentle boil*, and drink warm. *kuzu must boil to be effective.
• Or, the following:
• Prepare the Barley Malt version the same as above.
• Substitute Apple juice instead of water, or you can dilute with half juice, half water.
