2nd Saturday Raw Vegan Feast at Stepping Stones Toward a Raw Experience
June 13, 2009 from 6pm to 10pm
Come indulge in living food and conscious community. Anyone interested in the raw/live food diet and lifestyle is welcome! Bringing a salad, fruit or as fancy as dish as you are inspired to create grants you entrance into this raw food feast. Plea...
As someone involved with biodynamics/permaculture/local food, I think raw integrates pretty well with these movements. A desire to improve the soil, grow wonderful fresh produce, and connect with the Earth is a common thread.
I LOVED that book. He makes many exceptionally valid points, and the fact that he writes as a journalist makes his commentary that much more valuable. (As in, he's no guru, he's not corporate...he's just reporting and pondering:)
I picked this book up last weekend, I've only gotten as afar as the first chapter, but already one point that Pollan brings up is one that I am thankful for.

Profile Information
- About Me:
- A speech and language pathologist who is an aspiring raw foodist. i love the artsy creative aspect of raw foods as well as the political aspects that the lifestyle supports, and of course the way it makes my body feel nurtured! My current life work is increasing my ability to hear the gentle vibrations/rhythms within me, others, the universe.
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- I appreciate reading everyone's experiences in raw foods as I am new and still trying to learn how to integrate it into my lifestyle. I love the community of reading not just about raw foods but taking the "raw" conscious mentality to all parts of our lives.
- Relationship Status:
- No Comment
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- alisa cohen's raw enchilada-b/c my roomie and me made it ourselves & it was delish
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- yoga, zen meditation, poetry, the beach, art, healing, the ocean, dancing, playing, tennis, social commentary
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- Ani Phyo's books, pema chodron, robert aitken, nelson foster
- Favorite Quote:
- Enlightenment is like the moon reflected on the water. The moon does not get wet, nor is the water broken. Although its light is wide and great, the moon is reflected even in a puddle an inch wide. The whole moon and the entire sky are reflected in dewdrops on the grass, or even in one drop of water. Enlightenment does not divide you, just as the moon does not break the water. You cannot hinder enlightenment, just as a drop of water does not hinder the moon in the sky. The depth of the drop is the height of the moon. Each reflection, however long or short its duration, manifests the vastness of the dewdrop, and realizes the limitlessness of the moonlight in the sky. There is something in nature that forms patterns. We, as part of nature, also form patterns. The mind is like the wind and the body like the sand... If you want to know how the wind is blowing, look at the sand.

Thoughts on "In Defense of Food" by Michael Pollan and the Raw foods movement.
I picked this book up last weekend, so far I'm blown away by one of Pollan's first points: that eating should not be foremost about bodily health.
Pollan says, "Food is about pleasure, about community, about family and spirituality, about our relationship to the natural world and about expressing our identity." Thank you Michael Pollan!
Background of the book: The aim of Pollan's book is "to help us reclaim our health and happiness as eaters." through the defense of food and eating. Defending… Continue

sooo i've decided i am no longer doing social things that i don't want to do anymore. i'm pretty tired and worn out from doing social stuff because i want people to know that i care, and to belong to part of the group. of course i want people to know that i care about them, but i am tired of trying to make everyone happy. it's wearing me out. i am also tired of hanging out and doing things that don't interest me. like going to superbowl parties and watching football. i guess before it was scary… Continue

moving to kaimuki
so, i'm almost moved to my new little place in kaimuki. it's not the first step in me designing my life according to my vision, but it is a huge accomplishment for me in the sense that my envisionment now has a large space to take physical form. one thing that i will need to conquer is getting accustomed to returning to a quiet apartment. Sometimes it is wonderful, other time it is lonely! it's funny because this was what i wanted all along...

I'm serious, just go to the grocery store, buy all kinds of celery, kale, cucumbers, carrots, and whatever else you want, and juice is all and only drink juices for as long as you can!

awesome, I want to do teacher training one day
my magic bullet burnt out, it was good for travelling while I had it though. Can you get a second hand blender? The cheaper ones I have used don't chop up the greens as well. Try to get something with a higher wattage, like 1000watt.
Mountain rose herbs has the green leaf stevia powder in bulk for a very good price.
