Profile

About Me:
I was introduced to raw foods as a child when my parents followed "Fit for Life" and "The Beverly Hills Diet" then reintroduced again a few years ago. I played with it and felt great. I studied and learned foods I thought were "healthy" weren't really as healthy as they were said to be. I tested it on myself and learned...this stuff isn't good for me. I began eliminating foods one at a time. Now, 3 years later I am free of gluten, soy, corn/peanuts, alcohol, caffeine, meat, dairy, eggs, fish, poultry. I am now arriving at my last 2 food addictions:COOKED and SUGAR. I am in the transition to enjoying optimal health. I really want to be on a 90-100% raw food diet. I have felt my best at times when I was following a raw food lifestyle. I am thrilled to take myself to a deeper level!
Location:
Southern California
What type of friends are you looking to make here?
New Friends!!!! I am realizing it is much easier to have friends on the same frequency. Strange that I no longer feel I fit in where I once was. I felt I had to explain myself to those who did not follow a raw food diet. I constantly was being interviewed. Rather than convincing others it is just easier to enjoy people who are already there. So, here I am....looking for great people who are real and authentic.
Relationship Status:
Single
Favorite Raw Food or Dish:
Where do I start? How can I chose only 1?
Interests (outside of Raw Food):
yoga...I do power yoga, but I would love to be involved in acro yoga. I guess I need a partner :). I also love nature and being active. I love snowboarding, hiking, surfing, swimming. I started conditioning for gymnastics. I am also learning the guitar. Living simply. I love to read, I love to write as well. I have a huge collection begging to be bound and published. :) I am transforming my front yard into an edible landscape. I have been studying biodynamic gardening. Interior design, landscape design, I would love to create and host raw wellness retreats. My background is in beauty, day spa, massage, yoga, personal training, injury rehab therapy, nutrition and now raw foods... I would love to travel and educate.
Favorite Books:
Anything by Wayne Dyer, David Wolfe, Abraham Hicks, etc..Ask and it is Given, The Science of Getting Rich, The 8th Habit, anything on self empowerment :)
Favorite Quote:
The biggest mistake people make in life is not trying to make a living at doing what they most enjoy. Malcolm Forbes

Lori's Blog

Aww...my very first RAW blog!

Something feels sooooooo good about starting a new blog. It reminds me of the first day of school with brand new rings of paper and pencils ready to fill the sheets. I suppose an introduction would be appropriate ; ).

As you know, my name is Lori. I am 31. I live in Southern California. I am a single mommy. I am very close with my children's father though. We are committed parents. Usually at my kids events the other parents think we are still married since they usually don't see ex rel… Continue

Lori, the way i see it is that if we are heading in a good direction, from the madness of an old stile impireal world based on missinformasion, then every moment spent going to good states of being count as much as each other, it's all perfect, ive been through times that were so painful , but in those times i was doing the work that got me to where i am now, and now my life is very beautiful, though i still have much hard work to do. one day i will be shearing it with many though im not ready yet, ive found that when i shear my ways with people they dont get it, and my part of that is that i done explain my self clearly anoth and their part is that it is the hardest thing to take on,you can try me if you want and see if you get it, lovejules

it's a pleasher Lori, in the moment, it's all perfect, and reading your words,is perfect for me, thank you for being you.

ive just started a green smoothie of chlellor hemp blue green alge with a bit of mesquite in it, what life im having.my way to rawhas been histerical. i found my self running a juice and smoothie bar in festivels with a frend who sat me down and told me about raw, before this i thought raw was for space cadets. but i new sugar was bad news and was strugeling with it, when people asked for suger in any thing, i told them it was devil sperm, i dont think i put it up on a sign, though i would of done.

masses of lovejules
