Jody - I replied to your Is Rejuvelac the same as Kombucha? question but just realized I replied to heathers_sea. You can see my response at http://raw100.ning.com/forum/topics/2170300:Topic:47215?x=1&id=2170300%3ATopic%3A47215&page=1#comments, (I...
More on the difference between Rejuvelac and Kombucha. This thread is what brought me to the RawFu site in the first place! So fun that I can contribute to it :) I had emailed a company asking what the beneficial differences between these two powe...

- One of my main goals is to find my will-power again. I'm not sure where I lost it, but it was strong and powerful. Friends even commented on how great it was, its out there and I'm determined to find it again. My husband Ryan says that I "...loose integrity at the moment of choice." He's nailed it, right on the nose.
Secondly, I want that joyous, lovely feeling back again. The lightness in my step that I used to feel when I was vegan. Why do I eat meat, cheese and sugar when it makes me feel so grody?! I've been living the last 3 - 4 years in a constant state of debate with myself. Waking up, thinking about eating vegan or raw, and then not doing it. And then wondering why I am not. Then telling myself that I shouldn't beat myself up over it. Then finally letting the right, the good voice in my head win the battle (hence DAY 4 of EATING RAW ye-AHH).
This is where fueling my passion comes in. My passion is for yoga, its so dear to me just writing these words about it makes teary-eyed with happiness. I love yoga and how its made me feel about life. I teach a few classes to my co-workers in the Google office in Denver. But where I want to be, where I imagine myself, as a yoga teacher is far beyond teaching two or three students twice a week. Glory be the days that I am at a studio all day, all week, talking about yoga to so many different people... Being a part of their yoga journey and finding my way through mine. I'm kinda a yoga dork in that way where I could talk about it for hours and be so stoked about it.
Yet, I can't sustain a yoga practice and lifestyle eating the way I was eating. It just doesn't make sense. Not eating animals, their byproducts, using less packaging, growing my own vegetables, buying local, etc., to me all falls under one of the Yama's (restraints) in the Eight Limbed Path of Yoga. It is called ahimsa, which means non-violence, for me this is causing the least amount of harm to animals and to the earth. The Yama's are foundational in yoga. This is where I need to find my strength, my will-power.
I can already, after four days of eating raw, notice a difference in my yoga practice. Its easier for me to move through poses. I feel lighter when I step onto my mat and even more so when I step off of it to face the world. Not just lighter in my body, but lighter in my mind and in my heart.
One of my favorite aspects of yoga is bringing my practice off my mat and into my life. I'm so excited to harness that will-power again to: stop eating what doesn't serve my body, to feel more amazing with each day, and to be able to move with lightness on and off my yoga mat.
