 Oats take care of every particle of "being. Brain, nerves, blood vessels, bones, psyche, emotions, ... everything is fed to perfection with attention and life energy from the oat energy. Oats do not neglect any part of the soul-and-body, he is optimally healthy both inside and out. The oat man has a built-in sense of justice: everyone equally.

However, oat people are also very focused on appearance and other futilities. How others behold them occupies them frequently. Consequently, he can lose himself in too much attention to outward appearances, to his muscles, to sunburnt skin, etc. As a result, he lives somewhat deadened and cut off from his own deeper wisdom and content. Like a flower that identifies only with its yellow petals, but forgets its rich soul essence. Matter detached from its source becomes depleted and dies. True immortal health begins with unity between soul and body, between substance and form.

If you long for oats, then oats calls you to seek the Source within yourself and let go of your identification with a superficial exterior. From connection with the True Self, your true life stream can make its way.

Oats shows you the way to an even distribution of inner life energies throughout the body. Oats helps you to remember that your body cannot exist without its source of life. So let go of your desire to be OK on the outside, says oats. Feed yourself from within and you will never run short. This will make you strong psychologically and physically. After all, you no longer exist just to be seen and approved by others, but you live from and inner strength and love for yourself.
