In the 1990s, scientific research highlighted the fact that there is a mind-body connection. The Royal Flush began with a discussion regarding the effects of stress in relation to eating. A Royal Flush, is a food as medicine support group that helps the body detoxify and heal the GI tract. As a result the participants, eliminate main sources of delayed food allergies, loose weight, resolve digestive disorders and much more. In addition to restoring and re-vitalizing health, A Royal Flush aims to create a deeper sense of self-awareness in each of its participants. The more aware one is, the more options one has.
Has it ever happened? Where you find yourself asking where there is not more love, more money, more time? Often times, we pay attention to deficits in our lives and often try to fulfill them with external factors. Our facilitator, Lisa, spoke to all the participants about the importance of developing a strong sense of self. Loving oneself is a prerequisite to loving others and becoming aware of the abundance that surrounds us. The group went on to participate in meditation for twenty minutes, a mind-body technique where the individual can center him or herself, feel relaxed and have a moment of release.
A Royal Flush, is straightforward and takes dedication, determination and hard work. Many of the members expressed difficulty/lack of accessibility to some products in the program. However, this quickly led to a supportive group discussion in which some participants began to talk about where to find certain ingredients, the best way to prepare the foods and what to do in case of travel/restaurant outings.
