12 Steps to Raw Foods by Victoria Boutenko is one of the better books I have read on the subject of raw foods. It is a book which is aimed at helping a long time cooked food eater like my former self transition to a raw foods diet and lifestyle. I was first introduced to raw foods in 2009. Though I had heard of raw foods before, it was during 2009 that I really came to understand it. I networked with many raw food people in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and attended several raw food potluck events.
Throughout 2009 I did my best to try and incorporate raw foods into my daily meals; however, I was experiencing a lot of teeter-tottering between eating primarily raw and primarily cooked and though I felt better and more energized while eating raw it was difficult not to eat all those tasty cooked foods I had enjoyed for the past thirty years. After awhile I started to realize that my attempts to go raw were unsuccessful in the long term because I lacked knowledge of how to change.
When I picked up Victoria Boutenko’s book and started going through it, I was incredibly relieved to find the missing knowledge and support I needed to overcome my cooked food dependency once and for all. At the beginning of 2010 I resolved to go 100% raw and I’m doing great thanks to this awesome book which I could barely put down! [click to continue…]
The Uses of Ho’o Ponopono
According to Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len, people are 100% responsible for whatever is in their life whether it is good or bad. In today’s world, we’re always looking for someone to blame but we never think to look within ourselves to see if it is our own thinking causing our problem. Psychology deals with these same issues but on a much more superficial level. Ho’o ponopono directly works on the subconscious mind which is the most important level. Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len is most well known for curing an entire ward of criminally insane mental patients using the Ho’o Ponopono technique. Sound impossible?
The Huna tradition is a most ancient culture of Shamanism that dates back to at least 1500 C.E. although it is probably older. The same principles and concepts are akin to the Atlanteans, a curiously similar civilization. Many of the early people around the world had an outlook common to the Hawaiians. A vision of peace bliss, joy and love. The Hawaiian culture is full of amazing surprises. One little known fact is that the popular Hawaiian art of Hula dancing is actually a spiritual practice!

Guess what? God loves us no matter what we say or do. How do I know? Because without God pulling breath this conversation would not be happening. Your breath is God, your higher power, revere it every moment with love and respect and your life will surely be transformed. Don’t look to the caricature in the sky, look at the breath going in and out of your body which decides when it wants to leave you and there’s nothing you or anyone elses tiny little ego can do about it. Love God (Life) in every breath while you still have the time and opportunity to do so and you will see the world transformed for we are the world.
Who would love this body if it weren’t breathing? No one, when the breath is gone, we bury the body, you are not you, you are the real you, made in the image of the creator, in every thought word and deed you are creating this reality. Take responsibility and revere your breath as God and so too will you revere others and all of Life, for all of Life Breathes – Omnipresent. Life knows all, without breath there are no thoughts for the mind to think – Omniscience. Breath is happening automatically, being given with no expectation as unconditional love – Omnibenevolence. Without breath there is no life – omnipotence. [click to continue…]
(June 30th – July 7th), I attended the Rainbow Gathering in New Mexico just outside of Cuba (the city) along with my longtime friend Daniel Katsuk. A splendid time was guaranteed by all and they were correct.
Rainbow 2009
The overarching theme of Rainbow Gathering is unconditional love against the backdrop of what appears to be a rather successful anarchy; and I’m not talking about the bomb throwing terrorist kind ie. military-industrial complex. The rainbow gathering is a collective of individuals that takes place without an official governing body. The organization and planning of the location at which it will take place is decided upon by something akin to a council of elders – those who sit in the circle and pass the stick around are those who act as the governing body at that time, thus there is equality in terms of representation for those who participate.
Throughout the gathering, there are many groups who are self-responsible for creating, sustaining, and breaking down their respective encampments, most with kitchens, and thus there are many diverse groups to visit which make the gathering all the more interesting. Also, of particular mention is the fact that many of these groups arrive sometimes a month or more in advance to set things up just right and they also stay for awhile after the “official” gathering to make sure that the space is returned as closely as possible to the way it was before so it is as though no one had ever been there.
A day in the life of a visitor to the gathering, more appropriately deemed a rainbow brother or sister typically includes walking around meeting new people, eating free food and visiting different encampments and kitchens, singing songs, dancing, playing music and drums, basking in the glory and grandeur of the natural surroundings, and overall just having a great time in love and liberty.

Well friends, the cause of Michael Jackson’s death has finally been uncovered. It doesn’t look too good I’m afraid. The exact cause responsible for the death of Michael Jackson, the king of pop, it turns out, is none other than — death!
Yes that’s right, death is the cause of Michael Jackson’s death. Perhaps worst of all, is the discovery that what killed Michael Jackson is going to kill all of us. Worldwide outcry over Michael Jackson’s recent demise has been overshadowed by the fear and anxiety among every living individual human-being on the face of the earth as they have all come to realize that they too will one day succumb to the lord of death.

The use of cordyceps by China’s Olympic athletes to increase endurance may owe in part to the use of cordyceps and its relaxing effect on the airways. As reported by Newsweek (September 27, 1993), when Gold medals were awarded to China’s Olympic Women’s Running Team for the 10,000, 3,000 and 1,500 meter competitions in Germany of August 1993, rumors began to circulate of “drug” use. Weeks later at the National Games in China in October 1993, the same runners laid to rest another three world records, shaving 42 seconds from the 10,000 meter event.
The question raised by officials in Germany is how could they break so many records in such a short time without taking drugs? [click to continue…]
