Have you been loving the Raw Summit 2? I HAVE :) I barely heard any of the first Raw Summit due to a fast-paced lifestyle at that time – now I’m listening in every day – yummy :) Some of my highlights so far were hearing Rod Rotondi of Leaf Cuisine speaking about how they don’t have ‘trash’ at the Leaf restaurants – just one pile for recycling and one for compost :O GO ROD :) I love it… It was great for me to hear Annie Jubb share her experience – I’d never heard her speak before at all and she seems to have a great deal of grounded, loving guidance to share. Go raw women speakers ;)
I was also really happy to hear Sergei Boutenko speak about the Boutenko family’s trek along the Pacific Coast Trail when he was about 13. That journey is described in Raw Family, the Boutenko’s book which helped me shift the track of my life 5 years ago…I’ve never heard any of them SPEAK about the trek though…it was SO beautiful to me to hear Sergei talk about how he started out thinking it would be desperately dull and packing his Gameboy, to absolutely revelling in the experience, eating 70% foraged foods and now sharing his foraging skills with others all over the world :) Hmmmm…I would love to do a pilgrimage at some point…
In the meantime, if you’re not tuned into the Summit yet, it’s totally free to listen in and you can sign up HERE: http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?af=672327

Still to air are Tim Van Orden, Ani Phyo, Mike Nash, Joel Fuhrman, Debbie Merrill and the good Drs. Clement – great line-up ;)

Opportunity Knocks...

Listen up, ladies ;)
‘New Woman’ magazine in the UK have been in contact with an exciting media opportunity for anyone in the UK who has a raw weight loss story to tell:

"Has your friend inspired you to lose weight?
If so, please get in touch to take part in a feature in New Woman magazine. I'm looking for women aged 25 to 35 who have been inspired to lose weight by a slim friend who's into raw food. Perhaps you wondered what her secret was, and started copying what she ate...It would involve a short telephone interview and a photo shoot in central London on 5 December. Please contact Ruth Tierney on tierneyruth@aol.com."

on November the 23rd I had:

1 quart water
1 cup fresh orange juice
1 quart celery/parsley/random greens/carrot juice
½ a medium papaya
avo mushed with cilantro pesto, in nori rolls with cucumber, tomato and fresh sprouts
3 cups water
2 cups celery/parsley/random greens/carrot/sunflower greens juice
2 bananas and 2 black sapote
3 cups water
1 mango
2 cups water

When I was Juice Feasting this time last year, one of the most influential things I read during that time was ‘The Law of Attraction’ (LOA) by Esther and Jerry Hicks. We have now added this title to the RawReform store – YAY :) In recent years, the LOA concept has become very popular, especially due to the popular film ‘The Secret’, which shares similar information to this book (also available in our store). This book is a channelled piece of work and it imparts some very useful life tools, especially concerning visualisation. This book helped me a lot with releasing negative thought patterns and instead creating solid, positive intentions for my reality. You can see more about it and order a copy HERE.
Also, a little reminder that until midnight (PST) on November the 26th, you can use the coupon code ‘juice’ to get 10% off ANY purchase in the RawReform Store at the check out…ENJOY :)

on November the 24th I had:

1 quart water
3 cups celery/cucumber/alfalfa/carrot juice
½ a green/orange mamey, ½ a custard apple
3 cups water
big bowl of papaya flesh with lime juice squeezed over it
bowl of sprouts covered with tomato sauce made by blending together 3 tomatoes, 3 cloves of garlic and a few sundried tomatoes with 1/3 packet sundried tomato hummus. Sprouts/sauce stuffed in nori rolls with spinach
2 cups water
2 cups tatsoi/spinach/alfalfa/carrot/apple/celeriac juice
bowl of bananas blended with black sapote, swirled with goji berries
2 cups water

November the 24th sees the Full Moon in Gemini (6.30am PST). Lisa Dale Miller describes this as the moon of diversity - a great time for communication, networking, socializing and information sharing. You can read all about it here: http://astrowisdom.com/thisfullmoon.htm
I learnt something interesting recently. Apparently at the time of the full moon, any parasites in our intestines release their hold on our insides and this is an optimal time to flush them out. Hmmmm…well, I’m not sure how many parasites I have any more…I decided though today that I’d like to help move on out anyone who IS still in there – that’s why I made a tomato sauce with 3 CLOVES of garlic ;) The guys who told me about this process recommended using Wormwood tincture at this time of the moon cycle – I didn’t have that, so garlic was my anti-parasite choice…we’ll see what happens… ;)
