Hildegard Von Bingen


Hildegard teaches the close link of mankind, nature and the universe. Various foods are grown seasonally and harvested seasonally. They grow on the earth within nature in the manner to feed us at a particular time. They compensate for the disequilibrium generated within the body before, during and after the weather changes seasons. The delicate balances of life forces are threatened and tampered with by genetically modified, or GM, foods that are serviced without proper growth or harvest times. The asymmetric look and balance of the food is now viewed as symmetric perfection or one dare not eat of it! This is the reason why various foods within a season are to be consumed at that particular time period. The time frame of seasonal foods can also regulate the physical bodies functions in disease and patterns of health. Hildegard von Bingen writes that spelt can be consumed all year, as well as the discovery of the healing power from coconut oil and products. Baking with both is another discovery, but the most important discovery to any baking is love and positive energy. For further reading please click on the following subject.

BABS Bakery wants you to know  a  few of  Hildegard's teachings about the plants and foods we use in our baking goods. These are some insights to Hildegard’s teachings on health and disease held within foods and plants.

I find Hildegard’s medical, as well as spiritual, writings and teachings to be harmonious with the foundations of Ayurveda and Chinese procedures, especially Food Energetics for balancing health within the body, mind and spirit.   Karan


The links below contain  Hildegard’s recommended uses for some healing plants and foods, since all of the elements are subject to mankind in the universal creation of the heart, the soul, and the personality.

“And by the torrent on the banks thereof on both sides shall grow all trees that bear fruit: their leaf shall not fall off, and their fruit shall not fail: every month shall they bring forth firstfruits, because the waters thereof shall issue out of the sanctuary: and the fruits thereof shall be for food, and the leaves thereof for medicine.” (Ezechial 47:12)

Hildegard states in her writings:
Unless God does not want one to become better, he will not and die,
this is God’s will to make one recover and heal.
Hildegard recommends a spelt breakfast consisting of spelt coffee,
spelt ‘porridge’ or we have a variety of spelt products to suit your spelt needs.

Returning to health requires moderation in food and drink, but also includes a simpler life style. Complicated life styles have been created by society. The perception of fear, perhaps, creates and/or compounds an already existing complicated life style. You can simplify a life style by many changes that occur without the creeping fear factor of incorporating a drastic change into the current life style. By not allowing the creeping fear factor to take over is when fear is converted into wisdom. This wisdom becomes the present moment and change occurs, since the perception has changed. Fear of the past and future no longer matter and then fear is eliminated within the change. The knowledge within the  present moment is all that exists. Fearing the consequences of any change does not allow for a change in ones perception. Wisdom leads to the ‘letting go’

of the past fears and positive implementations are easy to incorporate into the new life style. Simplicity within the life style is listening to the wisdom of the body in the present moment.

The body in its wisdom recognizes new and unfamiliar food and drinks. This wisdom from within the body tries to eliminate toxins taken in. Returning to health requires moderation in all areas of life including simplicity within the current life style.

 

List of suggested Hildegard books to read:

Hildegard of Bingen by Carmen Acevedo Butcher.

Note: Dr. Butcher has masterfully captured all of Hildegard’s works, life and her personality all in one book.

A must read book!  Karan Schneider, PhD. –Founder BABS Bakery.

-- HILDEGARDS HEALING PLANTS, From Her Medieval Classic PHYSICA, Translated by Bruce W. Hozeski. The general theories underlying Hildegard’s writings of balancing the hot and cold 'humours' reflects the approach to Eastern healing. This is a book that captures the attention in accordance to Traditional Chinese Medical thought and food energetics, while introducing a refreshing way to keep health of the mind/body/spirit. Karan Schneider, PhD., MS., BBA, GC-C, CH-C, SC-C –Founder BABS Bakery.

---Hildegard von Bingen’s PHYSICA, Translated from the Latin by, Priscilla Throop includes 'nine-books' of healing systems while elaborating on how to prepare and apply various remedies. A correlation with Oriental medical approaches recognizes an enormous truth to the theories that are effective today. A busy life can lead to a busy disease, so in taking time to understand how to assist a busy life, as well as understanding healing work from the spirit first, in a great respect for God-given balancing. Karan Schneider, PhD., MS., BBA, GC-C, CH-C, SC-C –Founder BABS Bakery. www.babsbakery.com


---Hildegard of Bingen’s Spiritual Remedies, by Dr. Wighard Strehlow reveals a most ancient spiritual approach to healing. Gem & Crystal healing therapies have been based on the methods from Hildegards profound comparison to the energy matrix within the earth's mineral kingdom. A body/soul connection unlike any other book in order to heal the mind is incorporated in Dr. Strehlow's newly outlined integrated lifestyle beginning with the spirit; an important guide to teach children how to operate in Love & Thankfullness into adulthood. Karan Schneider, PhD., MS., BBA, GC-C, CH-C, SC-C –Founder BABS Bakery.

---Hildegard of Bingen's- Holistic Healing- allows the reader to know Hildegard is the first published female doctor from her insights of human physiology and pathology as it takes the reader into the true genetic power within the root of disease and treatment, or as I refer to it as part of my Genetic Energy Theory. The power of the four elements are exampled many times as with the energies of the God-given sun, moon and stars being among the curative powers to assist in an overlooked ancient tradition to healing the body/mind/spirit. Let not the power of today's medical mass-media overlook the study and fostered knowledge in this book! Karan Schneider, PhD., MS., BBA, GC-C, CH-C, SC-C –Founder BABS Bakery. www.babsbakery.com

The powerful documentation in this book is translated from one of the most evolved visionaries for individuals to experience as it creates a paradox within the soul struggling for more knowledge to the existence on how the visions celebrate wisdom and insight to understand the truthful simplicity within them.
