Raw Foods Book: Recipes and Detox Diets for Healthy Eating

There is never a perfect time to do a  cleanse.  There will always be some party, gathering or event that will cause you to stray from the idea.

I know how hard it is to focus on yourself, especially when you need it most.  Karen gets big Kudos for taking the Naked Challenge during the Holidays.  It shows a level of commitment and surrender to her goals.  Sometimes we just have to surrender.  I spent an evening out on the town with Karen, Holiday Parties and cheer.  Karen brought along some water in a fancy bottle and stayed focus throughout the night.  Pretty darn impressive for a self proclaimed wine enthusiast.

WORDS … whether whispered or shouted, they all have a unique vibration. When we set intentions or affirmations, the power of the word guides us through life.

It is easy to get caught in a cycle of negative talk and self-criticism. It is likely that a lot of people finished their feast of thanks last night and began the cycle of self-doubt, judgment and punishment. “I’m stuffed, why did…

Sometimes you just gotta push through the pain.

Many people who start a detox feel worse before they feel better. Know that it is only temporary and well worth it.
Some people get to an uncomfortable day where they may have stomach issues, headaches or an increase in mucous, and claim that it was a lot easier when they were living on fast and processed foods. But, truth is…

Don’t underestimate the body’s ability to heal.
