One-Week Internet/"Left-Brain" Fast :)

I am SUUUPER-EXCITED to announce a new experiment that I intend to begin tomorrow evening at 8pm Eastern (Tuesday, July the 12th). I am intending to take a one-week "left brain/internet/schedule fast" :) After the Raw Emotions Study Group weekly meeting finishes tomorrow evening, I intend to unplug my computer from the internet and remain as disconnected from "left brain" activities as I am able to, for the coming week...so, what does this mean?

*I will not be answering any emails or Facebook messages - please contact our customer services on rawworldservice@gmail.com if you require assistance during this time.
*I will not be blogging - I *may* still make note of my daily intake during this period to post later on - I'll see what happens ;)
*My newsletter next week may be later than usual...
*I will be intending to pass the week in a very simple, right-brain, creative flow, seeing what arises - I imagine the kind of activities I may find myself engaging in may include reading, writing, yoga, walking, meditation, journalling, singing, sleeping, gardening and so on...I am excited :)
*I may still use a computer to work on certain creative projects/make notes etc, however, I will be disconnected from the internet.
*I intend to reconnect to the "left-brain" world on July the 19th at 7pm Eastern to hold the next week's Raw Emotions Study Group meeting - after that we'll see how things unfold... ;)

I thank you in advance for your understanding of my desire to take this 'time out" and reconnect to my essence within...the vision for this experiment came through very strongly a few days ago and with a LOT of energy - I am excited to see what transpires - thank you... :)

Our New Home in Vilcabamba, Ecuador :)

WOW...so, we're at our new home in Ecuador now - we got here a couple of nights ago and life is just moving and shifting in such sublime directions right now - we are absolutely *LOVING* it here - I just came in from weeding the patches around some of the fruit trees we planted here last year and this morning we bought six more new baby trees: an avocado, two mangoes, three papaya trees...I am also starting off two avocado seeds and I have literally dozens of other different types of seeds to start off on our land...the produce at the farmers' market this morning was fantastic - we have a fridge and kitchen full of greens, mangoes, papayas, pineapples, avos, tomatoes and all kinds of yummies, including FRESH Incan berries :O :) We are feeling amazingly blessed and excited - there's so much to *do* and enjoy and unfold each day - I recommend keeping up with our adventures over at TheRawFoodWorld.TV for 'almost-real-time' daily updates ;) I also just posted a set of new pics to Flickr yesterday, from our first day here - see HERE...
