We are passionate about eating well and living as much of a healthy lifestyle as we can manage as a family. Each year our diet is progressing in a more healthy direction and we are getting more fit and strong through our regular practice of stretching, dancing and whatever else we can squeeze in there. We have been partial to month long fitness challenges! We regularly detox through juice feasts and raw food eating and aim to continue to be healthier every day. My next kitchen step is to embrace a dehydrator. I believe that will help us significantly in our RAW food journey.

Eating a healthy diet is crucial to maintaining a healthy life. From my understanding, all food carries nutrients and energy and as we consume the food, we consume the ingredients and energetic imprint. The more toxic ingredients we ingest, the harder the body must work to either remove the poison or work with it embedded. The energy of a fresh carrot from the ground differs greatly from one which has been treated and packaged and sent over the world. If we have a 100% straight from the ground raw diet, our bodies will be at maximum heath efficiency and will be in tip top form to repair and heal from any bugs, illnesses or accidents you may experience. If we have a 100% junk food and regular western diet, your body is most likely struggling to cope with all the toxins, alien and poisonousness ingredients and dire energies which fill our supermarket shelves. The energetic imprint of food is not to be underestimated much like invisible bugs and germs, invisible vibes emanate from food. We have shelves of meat and meat products which have been cut from drugged and toxic animals, who have been often mistreated and slaughtered and carry negative energy into the food chain. We drink water which we have been poisoning knowingly for decades. We buy foods which contain the imprints of thousands of unhappy people in productions lines and in factories and shops. To be healthy these days requires one to be very knowledgeable when it comes to the ins and outs of how the human body works. A couple of generations ago, your food came from your local community and was for the most part, pure food. Now we have ingredients lists you cannot read. The change in the overall health of western society may be slow, but it there in decline as the medical and pharmaceutical industry thrives. Seriously, eat food from your garden and share surplus with the community. Negate the need to medications like we have now. So long as we are not eating a healthy diet, we will not produce healthy bodies or babies. There will be an impact, even if it is hard to see as we live through it.

It is my food dream to be fully RAW with conscious exceptions, because I believe that we should always give ourselves a degree of flexibility and the ability to try new things and share with the community. A lovingly baked slice of apple pie will not ruin a healthy diet every now and then. Am I anywhere near this dream? I am not as close as I would like, and that brings me to my next dream, to operate a new food restaurant bringing RAW Fusion style food to everyone. My current food palate does not enjoy being fully raw and eating salad every day. As much as I may want to, I can find it really difficult after a period of time to stay inspired. I believe that having a better RAW equipped kitchen may help this family transition more easily.
