New Insight on Raw Food
I have a brand new insight on Raw Food!! I went to the Healing Center yesterday and had my first Reiki session and I loved it !!! I was awake but asleep.. it was a calming feeling. Anyway afterwards I had a long talk with my Reiki person about levels of food and rawness. Simply stated she said that at the bottom there is Junk food, then there is processed /refined food cooked, Plain Cooked food, Whole grain / no refined Cooked Food, Raw Food.. I might be missing something... but so where you are… Continue

Raw is Good!
Not sure about enzymes at this point, I did sleep 7 hours last night and after crossing my kiddos I had to come home and crawl back into bed for 2 hours. ;( And I have been sleepy all day and now I am ready for bed. So tomorrow I have my appointment with the authors of my new journey and will ask what the heck is wrong with me.. I didnt get any burst of energy LOL.. I just got tired. TMI ... my BM's are not green anymore :) so I must be absorbing more nutrients.

Didnt feel like doing anything today so hung out at the library for awhile.. then hung out at Vitamin Cottage.

- Hey RQ-
How are you? I haven't posted lately but still raw-I have been craving tortilla chips-don't know why. I had some with guacamole-everything else is RAW. I think I do need to invest in the dehydrator so I can make raw 'chips'. I hope your journey is on track.
Peace

SQ said… - Today was a good episode on the spirituality side of the mind body connection. I now have a whole new list of books I want to read :) Im a little frustrated this week I have been in the kitchen all day yesterday making salad dressing and green drinks. There is alot of prep with raw food and the shelve life is very short which is costly and kinda incovienant feeling. However I think i will focus on whole fruits and veggies instead of all these recipies. I think i am getting overwhelmed a litttle.

Denise Wagner said… - You were the best secret santa! Thanks for all you did! I felt the love! I did horribly during the holidays! I was as bad as you could get. I started back up January 1st, had a two day detox with a horrible headache. But feeling great today! I got home from work yesterday laid down for a nap and crashed! Slept for five hours. Then slept through the night. That is NOT me but it felt great! My family was worried about me. My eleven yr old daughter said I was snoring. Ha Ha! My hubby said I drooled on his pillow. Yuck!
But I feel really good today. I have been doing alot of smoothies! I want to try some wraps. They sound really good to me. I did try the cucumber wraps on the last challenge. Loved them! Was going to make some this weekend but the store was out of cucumbers. Go figure!! Well have an awesome week! Talk to you again soon!

I just read your comment on my blog-I do make my own almond mylk with raw almonds. I have used the medjool dates to sweeten, as well as honey and agave (not at the same time:). Whatever I have on hand-I use-it all tastes good to me. As far as the almonds-there are 2 places I get them fairly reasonable -my local health food store or this new store called Winco. They offer whole raw almonds (more $$), OR broken ones (still raw) those are cheaper.
I also like drinking sunflower seed mylk (the cost on these is the lowest)
Peace!

- Hey RQ- so great to hear from you!
I too was AWOL for a while-and yes I too went astray. I have been like 50% raw compared to high raw before.
I have just been enjoying my family and my holiday break. We've been going to Disneyland like very week just for fun!! Watching movies, visiting friends and family.
This was my first Raw Winter and the cold makes it hard for me to not want to have hot soups.
It snowed here! I am going to post the picts-it was sooo beautiful.
I am ready for the next 100 day challenge!
Have a safe and happy New Year!
