Kat's Interview with Nathan Bales - Long-time Co-op Member & Bodyworker
Since the very beginning, this kat has received a
number of “meeeooowww-ing” emails from Nathan Bales. Some to make requests, some
to flatter Teri for her good work, and some just to say hello – but each signed
with the following quote:
The Buddha teaches this triple truth to all:
"A generous heart, kind speech and a life
of service and compassion are the things
which renew humanity."
Siddhartha Gautama
Clearly Nathan has a big heart and a fondness for felines, so I wanted to
know more. I called him up for a chat, and it turns out Nathan is quite the
bodyworker and strict vegetarian.
Don't think he was always so, however; he had many years of fighting a toxic
system, chronic back pain, and suffering the effects of a "South Texas" diet.
Here is his story.
How did you become interested in health?
My dad died at 53 from a massive heart attack, and his oldest son of the same
fate at 54. I woke up as a teenager and decided to be in good health. I started
lifting weights, had my own lawn business, and was pretty active.
After high school I joined the Navy construction battalion (the Sea Bees) and
became a welder. Once I was out of the Navy, I continued on as a welder, and by
the time I hit 35, I already had big health problems.
Growing up in South Texas, I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to eat meat and
dairy three times a day. I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to drink coke and
coffee all day instead of water!
