Feel Better Naturally

How many times have YOU tried to feel better at the "doctor's" and it just did not work?? Maybe you even got worse from taking drugs? What did you try next?? More drugs to cover up the first set of side effects?  And then another drug to deal with those side effects?  Did that work?  Did you get any better?  Pretty soon you’re on several prescription drugs and no better than you were to begin with.  In fact you’re probably much sicker.

So why do we hurt in the first place? Well, let’s say your heart hurts from a bad divorce.  You’re trying to take care of everyone around you and make sure they’re okay, all the while not allowing yourself to deal with the pain that you feel.  Your heart, being the storage house of feelings undigested, registers to your body that it is not well and shows up as......... physical pain in the neck or butt, literally.  What do you do?

Maybe you just feel lost, disconnected, depressed, stuck and need some guidance into light. Those undigested emotions may show up as a stomach digestive disorder, or worse.  Do you compensate by eating bread, sugar, caffeine, alcohol and wonder why your kidneys/liver are failing? Physical pain is the body’s first red light warning to PAY ATTENTION to NOW, not later.

Fortunately, the solutions are so ridiculously simple, safe, and empowering like no pill ever offered! If this makes you a tiny bit curious as to how you could’ve been so dooped/misled, well, a kind little lady will clear it all up for you in a few sessions of profound bodywork, breath work and stretches that release all traumas, hurts and the core causing patterns.  You can stop bad habits inherited from parents, who probably didn’t know better, or let go of a haunting memory that leads one down a tough wrong road.  The time to build a new foundation and beliefs that belong just to you and your awesome individuality is NOW!  Reacquaint yourself with precious innocence, JOY, ENERGY and enthusiasm. Let's welcome YOU HOME together inside the body BEFORE being too old or too sick.

Raw Chocolate Pudding Pie Recipe

If you haven't heard of the "raw diet" it is a great way to eat!  You feel so good when you eat foods the way nature intended them and there are several health benefits to eating a raw diet(more on that later!) I have had some AMAZING raw foods and the chocolate pudding pie is sooooooo good!  This recipe will be included in my cookbook, which is due out later this year!  So without further adieu, here is the recipe.

Ingredients
4 ripe avocados
1-1 1/3c. raw agave nectar or honey
1/4tsp. salt, divided
1-1 1/3c. cocoa powder
1c. raw almonds
1c. raw pecans
3 dates, pits removed

Directions:
Take nuts and put into a food processor or high powered blender and process until finely ground, no major chunks.  Then add dates and salt and process again until dates are well incorporated.  You should have a mixture that is somewhat crumbly, but will stick together when pressed in between your fingers.  Pour date/nut mixture into a pie plate and press into pie plate, like you would a graham cracker crust.  Next take the pits out of your avocados and scoop the "meat" into a food processor or blender and process until smooth.  There should be no lumps!  Then add agave, cocoa and salt, start with 1c of agave and cocoa. Blend until combined.  Then taste your pudding.  If you think it is not sweet enough or not chocolaty enough add another 1/3c. of agave and cocoa powder and blend until combined.  Pour pudding into pie crust.  Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours, but overnight is best.  The longer the flavors have to "mingle" the better it will taste.

Well there you go!  I dare you to try it!  It is so delicious, you'll forget it's good for you!  If you would like more information on raw foods and the health benefits of the raw food diet, sign up for our newsletter!  If you do give this recipe a try, please leave a comment and let me know what you thought!
