People battling depression, mania, or mood swings in general must modify their diets whenever they want to keep their emotions and life experiences on an even keel. Our bodies are made of what we eat and that means our brain cells are made of what we eat. Further, our emotions are “made” of what we eat. “So many emotions are seated in the liver. Literally.” You’d be surprised to know just how inter-related your emotions are with your physical body. Our training program includes monthly seminars and webinars, plus archives of information about retraining and influencing your emotional behaviors, your habits, your genetic tendencies. Enroll in the program at Young Living Essential Oils.

So, I’d like to give you a simple recipe to encourage modifying YOUR diet. It’s what I call a “new” way of cooking…but it’s actually just like our grandmothers used to cook. They didn’t necessarily measure ingredients and they used fresh, wholesome ingredients. Dump-and-GO! Here’s a sample:

Pumpkin Custard or Pie in a blender

  • 1 qt. winter squash or pumpkin, cooked and peeled
  • 1 – 1 1/2 cups milk or alternative milk
  • 2 eggs
  • about 2 tsp spices to taste (cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger)
  • about 1/2 TBSP arrowroot for every cup of pie filling (or thickening
    agent of your own choice)
  • about 1/4 tsp powdered stevia for sweetening…or swt of choice
  • about 1/4 cup strong honey
  • about 6 graham crackers crushed in the bottom of a baking dishBlenderize all the ingredients and then pour it over the crushed
    graham crackers.

    Bake 350 F for almost 1 hour (till firm in the middle)
