Profile Information

About Me:
My predisposition concerning my "About ME" column will be little avid. I will begin with a flow of words. I am an advocate of the self, and a love of the word ontology. I enjoy long days in my bedroom, under my sheets, asleep. I like nice sunny days where I can sit and meditate. I like rainy days where I can weep. I believe in the balance of the soul. I like to dream, because dreaming can make things mine. I prolifically spout words like a BB gun because they empower my mind, my soul, my sexy. I know for a fact that optimism creates, pessimism makes you defecate. Up untill now, I know who I am and I doubt I will change it anymore. I am finally going to be contempt with struggle, because it makes us all better. There are two types of bad, evil people in the world. The ones who do not struggle and those that let struggle define them coldly. Breath and reflect to self medicate. It does a body good. I am from El Paso Texas, a beautiful city in the Southwest and I am looking towards holistic living in order to conquer my lifelong struggle of weight and my recent diagnosis of diabetes. I am also a paraplegic, wheelchair bound and cannot walk.
How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
I firmly believe that I do not have a real good support system at home with my family. They tend to view significant changes and rehabilitation as weird and leftist. For once, I want to take control of my life. There are going to be some serious changes this year, which would force me to become a lot more independent. It seems as if my eating habits are a good place to start, in addition
Relationship Status:
Single
Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
I tell you when I get there
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
I have interest in a whole mess of things. Depends on what day. However, I am beginning to become incredibly interested in education. I am also interested in reading good books, becoming active in my community (Hispanic, disabled etc.) I am getting into wheelchair repair. I just graduate college, so I suppose some more direction would be great.
Favorite Books or Authors:
to many to list...honestly.
Favorite Quote:
"Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create that fact." William James

Is it necessary to cleans and fast before starting anew raw?

After reading several articles and text, it seems as if cleansing and fasting are essential to the success of the lifestyle. Is this true?

Hi Adrian, how are things going for you?

Hi Adrian, my apology for not responding sooner. I think you're on the right track because of the question you ask about doing yoga. You are probably thinking of "Hatha" yoga, or the physical yoga. There are many upper body yoga asanas (postures) that you can do in your wheelchair. However, right now I would not focus so much on the yoga. I do think it is important for you to start to develop your upper body strength. So, some modified and supervised weight lifting is a good place to start. You're already transforming what you eat, so that is good. Keep it up! I would also connect with other athletics in your area that are paraplegic. They would be great support and motivation. I hope this is helpful. Best.

I just joined "Give it to me Raw" a few days ago and am a "newbie" to the raw foodist lifestyle. So, welcome. I purchased "The Raw Detox Diet" book this week and found it quite helpful and very encouraging. It's great that you're taking on and transforming your health and wellness. We can encourage each other. Best.

I watch a lot of TV. For a normal person, it's probably too much, but for an aspiring TV writer, it's probably not enough. I watch Top Chef, Project Runway, Heroes, Gossip Girl, Greek, Biggest Loser, Glee, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, and Bon...

No, it needs all three. Flavor and ratio, not just equal parts of every component.

I want to raise my vibration at every level, for many reasons. Earthly illusions such as poverty, jealousy, anger, hate, greed, abuse, weigh me down like heavy luggage. It is these very illusions that keep me separate from others and from God. Get...

Thank you guys! For the sauce, I used tomatoes, a spoon of olive oil and a pinch of any yellow spice I could find in my cupboard and some cilantro. I prepare almond milk so I used the leftovers nuts and mixed them with previous ingredients and the...
