Eating raw has heightened my senses a lot. Being in nature after the rain is like a soul massage. It gives my senses an opportunity to connect & be.
love love love love it!

Smoooothie Recipe
This is great.
Seriously.
AND, it's a detoxify-er, if you know what I mean! Our stomachs have been rumbling for an hour now.
(P.S. It's the aloe that does this. If you don't want the detox affects, just have a little aloe...SO good for your bod--ay.)
Ingredients:
Enjoy in joy!
Love. love. love LOVe.

I'm a Foodie.
Seriously. The only way to put is that I freakin' love food.
I love it so much and I want to eat it ALL THE TIME.
I've been depriving myself of that luxury and therefore eating things that are other than the best ever. Instead of spending a little extra on the best stuff ever, I will decide to go and grab something from a restaurant which ends up being more expensive in the long run.
Right now, two of my GREAT raw foodie friends are in town and staying at my house. They have provided some amazing new insight to me on eating raw. The main thing being that even if I do own a dehydrator & know how to make kale chips, it's okay to support a company who makes them. Frankly, I am choosing not to make time in my life right now to make ALL my own raw food, so I need to buy some of it pre-made. I feel AMAZING about this realization. It seems so simple, but I had yet to make this part of my conscious awareness. Now that it is, I have given myself the freedom to "have my chocolate cake and eat it too...OR...be crazy busy accomplishing my goals & achieve perfect health."
We had a blast eating today.
We had giant glasses of juice for breakfast. Our juice included cucumber, celery, ginger, basil, kale, cilantro & lemon. YUM!
Then, we indulged in the best food ever at Chakra 4. I ate raw tacos, raw cinnamon & coconut pie & a coconut cream/cacao chocolate. WOAH.
(The other night we ate at True Food and I just learned they have RAW Ice Cream there. It is made with a nut base and the flavor is maple. OH MY. It is seriously the best I've ever eaten and in my non raw day, I had eaten my share of ice cream to know that this stuff is GOOOOD. I subscribe.)
Next, (and back to today) we went to Whole Foods and I loaded up on amazing raw foods. I bought the best things ever for salads, smoothies & snacking...so excited.
WELL THEN...March is about pampering myself with food. It's about re-creating an intimate, loving, sensual, sense-i-all relationship with my every bite. Thinking, "Everything I taste, touch, see, hear and feel is heaven, is golden" and bringing that into everything I do. Creating a perfect moment, a present moment to live in. After all, if you aren't living here and now, where are you living?
Love. love. LOVE. love....
