Why Organic?

July 10, 2013 by Marian Buck-Murray Leave a Comment

When I suggest specific foods for my clients, I invariably add the word ‘organic’.  Even if it’s understood, I feel the need to say it.

Yes,  there’s no question — organic foods do cost more.   And the cost is well worth it, I truly believe.   Fortunately, by reducing consumption of animal products, along with processed foods, a mostly-organic diet can be quite affordable.

Even if you’re already buying organic, it’s important to know the facts. The difference between organically- and conventionally-grown produce is clear an quite distinct.   Knowing the differences will help you feel good about each organic purchase you make.

To be labeled certified organic, all fresh or processed foods sold in the United States, including imports, must be produced according to the national organic standards and certified by an inspection agency accredited by the USDA.

Specific Certified Organic Standards include the following:

• Toxic synthetic pesticides and fertilizers— A farm field must be free of these chemicals for at least 3 years before a certified organic crop can be grown on it.

• Genetically engineered seeds or other materials — Certified organic products may not contain genetically modified elements.

• Sewage sludge — The USDA prohibits the use of sewage sludge in the production of organic food. Sewage sludge is widely used in conventional farming practices.  Sewage sludge has been shown to contain endocrine disruptors, pharmaceutical residues, industrial solvents, resistant pathogens, and more. These toxins can accumulate in plants grown in sludge-contaminated soil.

• Fresh manure  — Certified Organic standards require a waiting period between the application of raw manure and the harvest of any organic crops that are likely to be eaten raw. Conventional farmers are not governed by national restrictions on the use of raw manure.

• Animal Products —  Organic eggs, meat, and dairy products must come from animals fed 100% organic feed.

• Irradiation —  The USDA bans exposing organic food to radiation in order to kill microorganisms.

• Antibiotics and growth hormones —  Use of antibiotics and synthetic hormones is prohibited in certified organic meat and dairy animals.

What my clients say:

I started working with Marian over four years ago when I was experiencing recurrent miscarriages. It was an extremely vulnerable and traumatic time and I was lucky to find Marian through a friend’s recommendation. I had never done anything besides talk therapy previously and I was unfamiliar with EFT but I knew I needed something different. Marian educated me about EFT and its benefits. She tailored each session to my unique needs depending on what was going on for me emotionally and also used visualizations and breathwork. These are skills that I  also used on my own outside of our sessions. Marian is extremely skilled, grounding, empathetic and insightful. Even when I didn’t know what I needed, she listened and intuitively knew what to do. Her guidance helped me heal and move forward in my quest to be a mother. Our work together has truly been transformative for me and I continue to value our work now that I’m a new mother and am faced with new challenges.

Thank you so much, Marian!  I have held such appreciation in my heart for you and for the powerful work you have done with me.  I want to come see you for some more matrix reimprinting and EFT.  The more I expand the more I see. And I see more opportunities to release old ways and adopt new patterns that will serve my fullest expression of my soul's journey.

Thank you for agreeing to speak at NAO Wellness! I loved hearing your story, it’s so captivating and inspiring.  The feedback from the workshop was amazing – participants said it was transformative, that the energy in the room completely shifted, and more. I was truly blown away, I’m still feeling all the good vibes. You are such a gift.

~ Nikki Ostrower, Founder and Principal Nutritionist at NAO Wellness.

Thank you so much for the session yesterday. It’s so freeing to feel grounded and energetically unblocked at the same time. You’ve been such an incredible guide and support this past year. I’m astounded by how much I’ve learned and how far I’ve come.

~Diana F.

THANK YOU.  I'm sure you must hear testimonials all the time, but just your presence, voice and spirit make a huge difference in the way I think and do things - and I change! It's really a miracle, and you are the catalyst. Your guidance is invaluable.

~D.G.

Our session was incredible. I’m still in absolute awe at how quickly you led me to the core issues that were tangling me up. So often I would feel the impact of the inner critical voice on my emotions (I’d FEEL depressed, overwhelmed, stuck, anxious)…but I never knew what the core limiting beliefs exactly were. That you exposed them so effortlessly amazes me. I’m blown away by how good I feel – truly it is like I’m breathing deeper, feeling lighter, clearer– an everyday-kind-of joy just feels so much more accessible right now. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your work- I can’t wait to continue further with you!
