they gossip about which teams are going to trade or sign star players. Most of it is bullshit. They just create rumors to sell papers / get hits. Still I eat it up.
I love when that happens.
and all that time outside the vortex just think of all the awesome things it created.
delish
Hi agree with Erin, everything she suggested is very similiar to wha ti have found.
I am also seeing an accupuncturist and realize that we actually need cooked foods in our diet to support the spleen.
Healing with whole foods is a great start..
TOO CUTE.
Congrats Renee
you have a beautiful smile
Hi Macarana,
Well, I saw lots of cute babies.
Yes the body heals itself.
It is a "self healing mechanism"
I've been doing some "research" on ear candling, and have found three different reports:
1) it's great, feels great, and really helps to clear out the sinuses/lymphs
2) it feels great, but that's just the warmth and it doesn't actually do anything...
Because we believe we are dying. Fact is there is no such thing as "natural causes" or "dying of old age" death is always the result of sickness and disease, of which, all are preventable.
I choose to not buy into the 'I am dying' thing, it's the...
we do not die either ever,
our bodies are like clothes we change
yes duh
soccer gossip??
whats the gossip?
let ya know, next time I cut myself...
Thanks Yogs, twas a real eye-opener...
Health isn't only for the extremely ridiculously wealthy... oh well~
You rock =)
I'm feeling deprived; I might have been a little too...early for these books. Sounds like they might be worth checking out though as I love a good children's book. Probably the right emotional level for me...

WOW what a small world Dawn!!! I live in Westlake, close to Cromwell ( condo haven!)
Yep.. I been there once( their health food store twice)... food wasn't as tasty as I like( b4 I went raw).. I'm prone to spicy & I cook so much better( not to "toot my own horn" lol).. well I "prepare" now ( gotta get "cook" outta my mind!! lol)
We should do Farmers markets sometime.. I'm DYING to meet local CT raw foodists.. I joined a meet up group.. but they're in West Haven..( Catch a Healthy Habit Cafe). Wish they were closer!
I;d luv to get some local raw vegans 2gether someday & do a pot luck & exchange recipes, info, ideas.. Maybe I'll start my own group!
GREAT meeting u Dawn.. thanks for being my new friend! :-)
Big hug & best wishes..... Amanda
Let us know what you are doing with all your good stuff with Karen and if you have a site we would love to see it! Take care Dawn! Love

Thats awesome that you have read the book, although you comments suggest there may have been a few points you did not internalize.
"But, I found that for my body type it was too much fruit. I do better on more greens and less fruit"
The 80/10/10 Diet calls for MORE GREENS than any other program on the planet. 2-6% of calories from greens is more greens than people understand because nobody even knows what that looks like until they use a website like Nutridiary.com
I'm just assuming, but when you practiced 80/10/10 for a bit, I doubt you used Nutridiary.com or anything like that to track what you were eating. And I doubt you know how many calories you were eating from greens. Self-awareness is the cornerstone of health, if we do not know what we are doing then we cannot move forward.
I would like to encourage you to accept the reality that, ALL members of our species are identical and unique, simultaneously.
Identical
Our species shares one common design just like every other species on the planet.
• That's why we are grouped into one species by biologists.
• We share one set of biochemistries, that's why it's even possible to conduct studies. No commonalities, no studies.
It is for these reasons that we share one common diet. This is obvious once one begins to think about it, but yet it’s so profound because so few people on this planet understand it. Seriously folks, even in the small world called “raw food community” 99% of all the people in that community do not comprehend this!!!
Unique
“We are unique in that our perception is our reality, and each of our perceptions is unique, borne of a unique combination our experiences and our facility in exercising our various avenues for awareness. This is why each of our paths in life is unique.” -Elchanan
“Each of us develops his/her own, unique experience of life, unique interactions with others, unique perceptions, and so forth.” - Elchanan
We all had unique childhood experiences, unique parents, etc….but our overall physical design didn’t change because of these experiences.
If you are up for it, I would love to see you give 80/10/10 another shot and share Nutridiary.com pics on a daily basis so I can see what you are eating. Then we both will know if you actually did give the program a fair shot :)
