In everything we do, it is not the actual physical actions themselves that create the results, but it is the mindset we have while doing it. The physical actions themselves are a means by which we channel the energy of intent into physical manifestation. It is the energy of intent we do things with that determines the outcome we get. This is the secret that explains why different people can do the same exact things but get very different results. In truth, Mind is Principle over everything in life that we engage in.
A person may go to the gym and work out to build muscles. But it is not the actual physical working out itself that creates the strengthening and enlargement of muscles. It is the intent to build muscles along with the belief that working out physically will build it that makes it happen. If a person believes that his muscles grow easily and effortlessly, he can take less time and working out than others to build his muscles. If he believes that his muscles can't seem to grow, his efforts will produce little results.
The same principle operates in the area of eating to be healthy. If you believe that eating certain things will cause you to be healthy, then you will experience health with those food. If you believe that eating certain things will cause you to be unhealthy or even fall sick, then that is what you will experience when eating those food. For those who believe that they will be healthy no matter what, then eating more so called healthy food or less healthy food will not make much difference to them in their well being.
People who eat food believing that they will get fat are the ones that do. Whereas the ones who think they just won't get fat no matter what they eat, they stay slim always. Fat people who have fat beliefs can try and work out all they want to burn away the fats, but they keep gaining it back again. Slim people who have slim beliefs just seem to be blessed with a body that stay in shape without much difficulty or any effort at all. Why chase the world on the outside when you can have it all by the kingdom within?
No matter what food we eat, it is still fundamentally made up of pure energy. It is not what we eat, but what our body absorbs and converts that determines what the food does for us. Our beliefs and state of consciousness will determine what our body absorbs from the food that we eat. A person with healthy beliefs will be strong and lively from eating simple food whereas a person with unhealthy beliefs will be weak and lifeless from eating rich food. True health is of the mind and not of diet, exercise or drugs.
The Mind is Principle even over the effects of poisons and toxins upon the body. There are people who suffer deadly bites from venomous snakes or ingest poisoned food into their bodies, but no harm comes to them. That is because, the effect of poison upon your body depends on your belief in it. If you believe in death or ill effect, then you will experience it. If you believe in none of these, they won't happen. Such is the power of being able to take up serpents or drink deadly things and not being hurt by them.
