Give it to me Raw

Last week we talked about your money and how you spend is spent differently since embarking on your raw journey.

This week I want to talk about spending time (aka "clock time" for all your Eckhart Tolle fans).

One of the biggest concerns that people have when they "go raw" is that their social life will evaporate - especially since so much of what humans do involves food. Even on this website that concern seems to be a reoccurring theme in blog posts and discussions.

Some of that concern is preemptive worry, but a lot of it is very legitimate. Who will I hang out with? What will I do on Thanks Giving? How will I spend my weekends?

So let me ask you, How do you spend your time now? Specifically, how do you spend time in a way that you previously didn't? How are your weekends different?

Also, I'd love to hear a story or two about how you've adapted to certain social situations now that you eat the way you do.

Again, specificity is king! Let's hear some great stories.

This is something I am still figuring out. My boyfriend and most of my friends spend Friday & Saturday nights drinking. Often times I'll go out and not drink, or maybe have one glass of wine, then come home around midnight. It really isn't fun to stay out until the wee hours of the morning with a bunch of drunk people when you are staying sober.

I have gotten much more involved in my community though. I volunteer and sit on a local board of directors. Those events aren't usually on Friday or Saturday nights, but sometimes they are early the next morning which is motivation to go to bed at a decent time. I also started attending a Unitarian church about a year ago and that is nice.

YogiJi, Glad you're getting all this data. Take what works for you and your body and leave the rest. I made a journal to keep track of results. Bodies have differences and protest somethings while craving others, so we as their bosses should manag...

yeah that's good eh. i quite often get aggravated at little things - which if i actually think about - are bordering on humorous. it's better to ignore then to try too hard?
