I am a community and staff member of the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center, founded by Gabriel Cousens, M.D. I have been eating raw vegan foods for over 4 years. I have juice feasted and fasted for over 128 days, including a consecutive 60 day Juice Feast, and coach Juice Feasts with David Rainoshek. I am passionate about raw food nutrition, fitness, personal development, youth and raw food, spiritual practices and life at the Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center. I believe raw food is a catalyst for human potential in every area, and as fuel for living a truly turned-on life. My blog is www.CourtneyPool.com, please visit me!

So you're into singing and fitness. Here's a little singing for you from a couple of decades ago when I was touring with Frank Zappa. I changed the lyrics in the first verse to reflect a funny incident that happened to one of the crew guys the night before:
Hello, I'm the worst ever at keeping in touch with technology. I didn't even realize you posted on my page till now, you made the comment in may. I have no idea how I missed that.
