Feeding the soul

So I will admit that I have not read all of Aldous Huxley’s book “The Doors of Perception”, but I got from it one concept that has been sticking with me as of late.
He says something about how our brain accesses different parts of itself in reaction to different stimuli (ex: drugs) and situations.
So for example if we are living under harsh, threatening conditions, our brain will most likely be accessing a “survival-mode” way of working.
But what if we are living in conditions opposite threatening? For example, if we are happy and loved, safe, sleeping enough, exercising and FEEDING OUR BODIES IDEALLY…
Obviously we would not be thinking in “survival” mode. But this “survival mode” could come from factors like lack of nutrients, cigarette smoking, and other unhealthy habits.
I have been extremely interested in nutrition for the past few years. I have noticed that ever since I began eating only nutrient-dense ideal meals, drinking lots of water, and caring about my body, my mind started working much differently. I not only am HAPPIER, but I feel SMARTER and have many more intellectually stimulating thoughts. I can actually feel the efficiency of my brain has increased with regards to learning and thinking.
Because my physical BRAIN and self are in ideal conditions, my MIND is able to work in a way differently than it would be if it was constantly under stress or unhealthy.
There is plenty of scientific proof out there about eating and exercise and how they contribute to one’s state of mind.

Feed your body=feed your mind=feed your soul.

Any thoughts? I just hope that this inspires those who read it to consider healthy lifestyles because it really has made all the difference in my life.

“The doctor of the future will no longer treat the human frame with drugs, but rather will cure and prevent disease with nutrition.”-Thomas Edison
