- About Me:
- currently in trussville, al. working on self-sustainability. my boyfriend josh and i sold almost everything we owned and did a little traveling through the u.s. and costa rica this summer. we're settling down in the woods in alabama for a little while to plant fruit trees and veggies. will be traveling again soon!
we live in a world dominated by material possessions and consuming. it's a cycle of working to pay for things we don't really need. buy less, work less, live more! materials do not contribute to your character. it's not what you buy, it's what you do with your time. don't wait till you retire to do something exciting with your life. you'll waste your prime years away. don't make excuses and say i'll do it next year. live now! stop investing in materials and start investing in yourself. when you look back at your life will you be happier with the memories of traveling, excitement, spontaneity, living simply and humbly, or will you be happier looking back knowing that you spent a good portion of your life working for a bunch of stuff you didn't need?
"time becomes the only possession and everyone is equally rich in it by biological inheritance. money, of course, is still needed to survive, but time is what you need to live. so, save what little money you possess to meet basic survival requirements, but spend your time lavishly in order to create the life values that make the fire worth the candle"- ed buryn.

Hi everyone. I'm sorry to post the following photos as they are deeply disturbing and saddening, but this issue really needs attention. Please take a few minutes to let the city of Denver know that this massacre against pit bulls will not be tolerated.
Euthanized pit bulls.

Thanks!...
Wow, you're really lucky! They're selling organic persimmons here for $2.50 EACH at the grocery store. luckily i found a local farm that sells them at $2/lb.
Have you ever tried them totally ripe when they're like jelly? The crunchy ones are noth...
I just wanted to add that I tried the body ecology diet for a month when I had the candida overgrowth and it only made it worse, plus I really didn't enjoy the menu on that diet like I enjoy the fruit. Just sharing my experience with that.
You're...
Hi Renee! For me, fat was the culprit, not the sugar. The high fat intake was making it impossible for my body to use the sugar efficiently, therefore I had a candida overgrowth to take care of the excess. When I took out the high-fat, I could eat...
Hi! I'd just like to share my experience. When I first switched to a raw diet I ate high-fat, raw gourmet. After a while I started getting candida symptoms. I had the symptoms for two months and was MISERABLE. I tried all the low-sugar, low-fruit ...
lucky! i just planted 15 fig trees, all different varieties. can't wait till next season!
nothing dried me out more than salt. after cutting out the salt and eating a high water content diet of fruits my skin has never been more hydrated, even with the cooler weather and lower moisture in the air. that's what's working for me. hope you...
throw away all the preconceptions and everything you've learned about diet and go for what ever appeals to you in it's whole, raw natural state. there is so much conflicting information out there when it comes to diet. i would say it's best to exp...
As our souls leave these bodies we understand that the heart renching cruelty of mankind is the reason why our spirits have been degrated. That our nature will be misunderstood by the perjection of rage within a human beings heart. And we are used...

There may be odd occasions when an extreme situation will justify an accusation but it must not be carelessly made. An accusation, even when bolstered by ample evidence, is always unpleasant to hear. When the accusation is negative and made unjust...
Hi Isabel,
I wish it were that fast and easy, and I wish I could give you a formula. Unfortunately, how long it takes each person to detox depends much less on someone's age, but rather on the intersection between the level of toxicity of the bod...
This coming from the person who gets the warm fuzzies over beer-cheese soup.
thanks!
i just started juicing myself. i used to drink those naked drinks- high protein and green machine. i tried my first green juices off that recipe- mostly fruit.
total newbie question- i bought some yogurt that says it has probiotics in it...
That's intriguing. It really does look fake.
dont feel dumb! i appreciated you being willing to try and help me:)
Hey El-bo, LOL,
no bad amigo.
We'd love to have the chance to guide you through this amazing process some day.
And though I would never presume to speak for Doug and what he offers, we are in a completely different ballpark.
Yes, Tanglewood is...
Thank you so much for answering my questions! the whole idea of the diet really resonates with me, Ive been doing some research tonight and so starting tomorrow Im going to follow the basic principles from what I've read. I'm not vegan either- I f...
Thank you guys for the advice!
Freelee, i have learned about food combining before, I guess I was just hoping that in the raw environment it would be different. But it's ok! I just want to feel good.
huh...interesting...maybe that's why an apple and peanut butter level my blood sugar out. geezzz. i just suggested that. hmmnnn...i feeling kind of dumb b/c it has been one of my go to's when i have a stomach ache. i need to do some proper food co...
well...i'm pretty new to this. i'm not totally raw yet. plus, i'm just learning more about nutrition. i get bad stomach cramps sometimes when i'm running late in the morning and only have my morning coffee. on my way to work, i get cramps and don'...
Wow, that plant is so perfect is looks fake.
The best thing to do is drink green juices. Juice 2 lbs of greens per day. You are working from an old paradigm of health. Doing protein drinks doesn't help anyone. From your description you are not eating greens at all. You need to eat greens to ...
