Profile Information
- About Me:
- I'm a trainer in Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and active in the Mankind Project. I discovered raw and living foods lifestyle while studying holistic nutrition in San Diego, CA in 1999 at the School of Healing Arts. I became a certified nutritional counselor and educator, and for 5 years taught classes and counseled individuals. Over time, I became dissatisfied with how I was working with people, which amounted mostly to behavioral advice that they followed much less than I enjoyed ;-)
I yearned for a way to more deeply and meaningfully connect with people, so I got a master's degree in Spiritual Psychology from the University of Santa Monica. Now, my full-time livelihood is sharing the principles and practices of Compassionate Communication (formally known as Nonviolent Communication -- NVC, as created by American psychologist and peacemaker, Dr. Marshall Rosenberg).
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- Ways to incorporate raw foods preparation into my life in a way that is in harmony with the time and energy and focus I devote to my mission-related work in the world.
- Relationship Status:
- No Comment
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- green smoothies (kale, cucumber, banana, almond butter, berries)
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- Mankind Project, hiking in nature, outdoor activities, travel. I also regularly practice meditation and yoga, primarily Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan. I love the singing and chanting at Kirtans, too. Integral studies/integral spirituality, including Spiraldynamics and Ken Wilber's work (although I like people's "take" on his work more than reading his books directly ;-)
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- Joan Borysenko, John Bradshaw, Gay & Kathlyn Hendricks, Robert Moore, Marshall Rosenberg
- Favorite Quote:
- Anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at another; you are the one who gets burned. - Buddha

I have never dried them myself, but in France and Italy you can buy them already dried (at what temperature I don't know). It was awhile since I ate them (before I went raw).
My saliva has never commented on how I smell. But my mouth tastes fine. And, in case you were wondering, my various excretions all smell good too!
Lost is same insanely good storytelling, character development. I love how they spend time flashing back to show you the character's demons and how the island is bringing them to face what used to be a big thing for them. Plus, you never know what...
