I've been eating raw for a little over 6 years now. I maintain a directory of raw vegan restaurants, and blog about raw food, health, and new raw food places.
How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
Enjoy learning new things, and connecting w/ others who are into health and nutrition.

Favorite Quote:
“The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.” ~ M. Scott Peck

It's good to meet you too :). You live so close I wonder if we haven't walked by each other at the "Green Festival" or "World Vegetarian Day" without even knowing it.

Yes, it was. If you want to meet Michael Pollan, I understand he goes to the Berkeley farmer's markets. I'm not big on getting autographs, but it would be fun to chat it up with him.
Hi Malynda. Great to see you again - I didn't realize you were Twitch from Twitter! I saw the pics on your profile - and I've got it straight now! Sorry about that.
Baby, this answer rocks. I understand it completely. I did quite a lot of pills over a 2 year period in my 20s and got to experience all of what you described in your 1st paragraph. When I keep my raw diet pure and stay away from nuts, I feel the ...
A friend of mine has had issues with her parents since childhood, she tried everything including numerous counseling sessions, hypnosis etc etc. She then did a two day intensive program called ‘the breakthrough experience’ and now she’s a changed ...

Full disclosure - I work as a therapist.

But you should know that the value of it can't be described by the speed of the healing process or whether you're looking or seeming perfect. Therapy is about coming to terms and coming back...

Finally reconciled with my mother two years before she split the scene at the age of 95. Load off my mind.
She was tough, tough, tough, tough.
Jewish mother nagging shit, non-fucking-stop. Always fresh to her, always Hell to me.
Wow that's got to be tough. I think I would set myself on fire if I had to live with or near either one of my parents. I'm going to try to keep distance from them & keep a diary. Thank you for the support RGG
It hasn't faded any yet, but I've only heard of problems with some of the phosphorus inks and ours don't have any in. But who knows, the approved UV inks have only been out a few years and they're more expensive so not a lot of people take the opt...
