A RAW New You!
http://www.naturaw.com/a_raw_new_you.html
The raw food diet can be a powerful stepping stone and
tool in healing your body, mind, and soul! In many ways,
it represents a return to nature and simplicity. If you
are attracted to the concept of the raw food diet, it is
well worth an exploration to see what might be in store
for you! Some of the main reasons a raw diet is the buzz
today amongst movers and shakers and Hollywood
celebrities are the following:
Increased energy, awareness, and mental clarity and
focus.
Increased sense of peace and overall well being.
Increased sense of connection to nature and the life
force flowing through it.
The scientific reasons for these benefits are several.
Raw foods have more life force in them, which can be
measured through scientific measurement devices.
Consuming this life force adds to our own life force. Raw
foods have more vitamins and minerals than cooked foods.
The water in raw foods is more organized or structured,
similar to the water in our own cells. Therefore, the
body has less work to do in organizing or structuring the
water in raw foods before it is utilized and absorbed by
our own cells. Raw foods have more enzymes which makes it
easier for our body to digest and absorb raw foods. Also,
our bodies do not have to produce as many enzymes in
order to digest raw foods easing the work or strain on
the body in the digestive process. Raw foods have no
altered chemistry such as trans-fatty acids which are
known to cause chemical problems and imbalances in our
own bodies. Raw foods cause less of an immune response in
our own bodies due to less or no altered food chemistry.
If you are new to the raw lifestyle and/or are just
considering exploring it, following are some things to
keep in mind in order to make your journey enjoyable,
successful, and expansive:
1) Have fun! Keep in mind that no matter your reason,
motivation, or purpose in exploring the raw diet and
lifestyle, don't make it just a task! Keep the curiosity
going! Stay creative. Learn new recipies, go to seminars,
potlucks, and retreats, and associate with others who are
learning as well. Read interesting books on the subject.
2) Buy a juicer and learn how to juice on a regular
basis. Learn how to make green juices palatable to keep
your body balanced with greens. My favorite way is using
Granny Smith Apples. Also, buy a blender and learn about
raw soups, salad dressings, and smoothies. Pick up a food
processor and some raw recipie books and learn a new
recipie every week or every month. Visit a gourmet raw
food restaurant!
3) Stay easygoing and flexible around food and diet.
Don't become perfectionistic. Don't try to go 100% raw
overnight. Don't let it take up too much of your mental
time or energy! Read more about this at

4) Learn about raw superfoods and supplements to remain
balanced on the raw food diet as you make your
transitions and to excel on the diet. Some things to
consider are Algaes (such as Spirulina, Blue Green,
Golden, PhytoPlankton), Sea vegetables, Honey bee
products (bee pollen, royal jelly, propolis, and honey),
92 mineral wheatgrass juice, maca, cacao, gojis,
mushrooms, herbs, wild foods, colloidal, ionic, and
angstrom minerals, etc.
5) Learn about and use essential oils.
6) Do some sort of exercise, sport, yoga, or
healing/strengthening program on a regular basis. Spend
time in nature.
7) Learn about breathwork and "rebirthing".
8) Learn and implement the practice of sun gazing:

9) Bring prayer and gratitude to your food and diet.
10) Don't do all of the above at once! Start with one
thing first and let your journey progress naturally in
the way the seems easiest for you! If you are feeling
overwhelmed, step back and take a breather from the
learning and practicing process. Remember, this is a
journey. Rome was not built in a day!
