Sartorial strategy for top health!
Coming from the world of Fashion, when I think of health and well-being, I like imagining a real “tailor-made” strategy, sewn according to very specific criteria: a “tailor-made strategy” made of measurements, basting, tests, fittings, and detailed set-ups.
And I like to think that each of us, despite food proposals and last-minute trends, has our own unique and special fit. Also, and above all, when it comes to health.
Of course, some essential guidelines are the foundation: avoid gluten, dairy, legumes, soy, corn, and packaged products in general. However, the one that fits “me” and works very well “on me” doesn’t necessarily apply “to you” in the same way.
On the contrary, it is unthinkable not to take this into account.
Each of us is unique, and special in our way.
And not only because each of us has a genetic makeup that distinguishes us, and that can give important indications on the lifestyle to adopt to stay healthy, but is, however, not essential to know.
We are already hitting the jackpot, if we focus on the stage that comes before any pathology coming from any genetic mutation, and, therefore, we pay attention to the state of inflammation. And if we want to work on the state of inflammation and turn off mutated genes, ignited by an incorrect lifestyle or food choices that are not “physiological” for us, the solution must be tailor-made. No ifs or buts.
And how do you take these measures?
According to our uniqueness, to the history that sets us apart.
Is it just food? Of course not! It is lifestyle, emotions, traumas, mourning, habits, notions, beliefs. We are the sum of our experience and our past.
And our health, our physical state of “well-being” or “illness”, has a memory. Everything, even the most trivial experience, has a weight, for better or for worse, and contributes to forming what is the fitting that we are “called to wear”.
As with the creation of a beautifully tailored suit, our health also needs care, attention, and appropriate revisions, so that everything can be perfect and “worn” with ease. And let’s face it, it is obvious when we are dressed in tailored clothes rather than low-cost ones.
A “sartorial creation” is forever.
Of course, it needs special attention and a watchful eye.
However, it’s forever. Just like a fine fabric, a shoe, or a handcrafted bag. It is just like health. Good health, artfully crafted and carefully maintained, is forever!
