The sun and skin discussion is now officially on the ping pong table.
I have my own viewpoint on the subject and first and foremost I'm listening to my body and intuition. I agree with some and disagree with others.
I personally still burn and don't see myself as having built in sun block protection as a dark skinned person. As far as I'm concerned, I'm the only one living in my skin an

I made a commitment to my body to eat only organic a few years ago. Have done so successfully for 10 years, even during financial droughts. Since then I've not been concerned with the cost. My health supercedes it. When you shift your focus, the money becomes available. Somehow and always.
Personally I can only eat organic or unchemically altered or affected produce for my peace of mind.

This is where we're pioneering on unchartered territory and where it gets a bit challenging. I know raw foodists have been around for many years and we're new to this, but I think there are so many shifts taking place in the world that are putting a spotlight on diet,nutrition and health.
I had similar experiences with my ex boyfriend's family who were very hard core SAD eaters...steak every

192. Re: whats happening?
Lots of great advice.
I've been raw for a year and seldom desire anything but fresh raw foods now. Don't really consider cooked or processed as food anymore. Thought I was somehow over the threshold.
Recently I had a birthday and a friend wanted to gift me by taking me grocery shopping at my natural food co-op. While my friend went and shopped for herself, I somehow found myself in the p

yes, i've read this with some food combining books i have
i generally only eat sweet fruits solo as they digest easily on their own (20-30 mins for me)
if i combine them with other foods and non-sweet fruits i get terrible and immediate gas
i only add non-sweet fruits to my smoothies now
however, if you're not experiencing any digestive issues...hmmm...maybe don't worry about it?

198. Re: Raw Emotions
I believe our inherent nature as spiritual beings having a human experience is one of love, compassion and sharing. However you look at the world, there is some level of violence and suffering. I believe being raw foodists brings us closer to feeling emotions that were either repressed or denied to protect us. It is essentially the emergence of the third eye. The leveling out period may simply

In my opinion and based on my belief system, most of it not all things don't need to be proven. It's where we get tripped up the most trying to "prove it" rather than just trusting our innate intelligence and Hig

I was a trail mix junkie for YEARS. When I transitioned, I ate it by the handfuls. I made my own with dried fruits in the sun when I had time and my favorite nuts. I also purchased it in bulk from my food co-op. Now I no longer want it and am straying away from nuts altogether...this blows my mind because trail mix and nuts were some of my favorite foods.

100% raw for almost a year. Mine fluctuate, but generally includes being tired and/or waking up with headaches. Yuk. I finished a water fast recently and have been a little fatigued post cleanse. I think my adrenal glands are still releasing something. Other than that, really haven't had too many detox symptoms since going raw. I was a cooked vegan for a few years and a vegetarian before that

I believe I did heal my candida with raw foods. I was self-diagnosed after not ever hearing the word candida until after my first 40 day juice fast. My tongue was still coated white and I was told by a nutrionist friend it could've been the culprit. I did the spit test and sure enough I seemed to have some of the symptoms. I healed my candida by water fasting, juice fasting, eating/drinking p

I love going barefoot. The only thing you gotta be careful about is your feet chakras (located where your arch is or the center of your foot) pick up all kinds of energy. If you're walking through a particularly toxic area or around alot of negative people, you're going to pick up the toxic energy from your feet. I personally just enjoy doing it in nature, I'd never walk barefoot in a metropoli
