Green tea=Green in the Face?
Replied Dec. 8, 2008
Hello, from Uptown Manhattan, NYC
Replied Dec. 8, 2008
In love with being a new mommy, I love my little Zoe
Profile Information
- About Me:
- I love raw, I love it, I love it, I love it
Its been a 2 years transition. I have my insipiring weeks and then crash bam I eat something cooked. More often than not when it is cooked it is whole organic foods like brown rice and beans. Shhhh I have had some real bad junk days but I can count them on my hands in a years time.
In all my life my mindset and the way I look at the world has completely been transformed. I have many new plans and goals to set but it is all to allow me to live in the now and ever present me and focus on putting me and my well being first. Then I can be of value to the planet and contribute with love and openess and not with pain and confusion.
I have dealt with fad diets in the past like Atkins whheeewww, thats over and have yo yoed in weight and exercising from extreme to lazy and never felt healthy either way. Although I changed my way of thinking not just as a diet but more as a way to view our earth which is in danger of being destroyed.
With my passion of cooking transformed into uncooking I hope to spread the health with raw dishes I can create and experiment with. I love recipes and reading recipes for hours on end, raw food pictures make my mouth water.
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- Anyone with an open heart and mind or just needs a friend to talk to and support. I am seeking support and togetherness in a movement I feel is bringing it back to the simplicity of nature. I would love to hear from raw mothers/daddy's and any one who may have experience at some level with a raw pregnancy.
- Relationship Status:
- Engaged
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- Coconut and lime together yummm, Mangos, Oh Yes and my yummy Kale
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- Cultures, Sociology, Languages, Latin America, understanding my backgrounds and ancestry from venezuela to Italy
Capoeira, Music, Dancing Dancing Dancing, Moving and which way our bodies feel
Traveling the world, meeting interesting people, awareness, consciousness,
Laughing until your cheeks hurt, Spending time with loved ones and creating a sense on community
Natural Health and healing and womens natural reproductive health and mothering, High risk pregnancy research
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- Many to share but recently I have read many raw recipe books; La Bruja de Portobello by Paulo Coelho; The Wonderous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz; Now reading Worldchanging the book and regularly read the website, Trying to get through 100 years of Solitude in Spanish Cien Anos de Soledad by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Pregnant, on a Raw Journey, and worried
I'm in the begining of my pregnancy at about 6 weeks. There is so much going through my mind right now. I don't even know where to begin. When I think to far ahead in the future I worry since I tell myself my pregnancy may not make it. Then I tell myself not to be negative and keep a positive mindset. I feel when I am positive I can make it through but I also have to be realistic and remember I have a "condition." I always felt like this is very personal but it is also necessary for people to le… Continue

That is a good point Angus. I have found that a lot of fundamentalist religions accuse everyone else of worshiping the devil and it like a blind hysteria- like all these other people have a black bible in their house and secretely worship a statue...
That's brilliant Angus, thanks....this will keep me busy for a while :)

Yeah really that was just my negative response to Arnold Ehret's book from an emotional standpoint. I just found it lacking in completion. There's good logic in it though.

What other book can you recommend Angus?...staying with those kinda ideas, living in alignment with nature, natural hygiene, fruit diets, fasting (or anyone else :).

I'm not going to comment on climate change. But i will comment on carbon trading. Because they can produce such a consciousness of fear out of global warming - they are able to manipulate markets much more severely - and they seem to get away with...
