Hungry for Change
Posted by admin | Filed under Food, Freebies, Vegan
If you’re like me, a little dose of inspiration and information can really amp up the motivation from time to time. So, when I heard about this new movie touting the benefits of plant foods and the dangers of our modern-day obsessions with diets and supplements, I had to share – especially since its free to watch online for the next 9 days!Raw TV

I wonder if Shazzie is going to have any more episodes of her Raw Kitchen?
In the meantime, here are some good raw youtube channels:

Nude Food is HERE!

As some of you already know, in my day job, I am a graphic designer and illustrator. Well, when my two passions, Raw Food and Art, come together, it makes my days pure magic, and that’s exactly what happened on my latest project. Check out Nude Food, Sexy Servings You will Love, that will Love You Back!
And just so you know, this is not just another recipe ebook with 1 or 2 decent recipes… This is a work of art!
Shakaya’s recipes are of the best I have found in my 10 years as a raw foodie.
- This book is 138 pages of pure deliciousness that includes not only recipes, but amazing information and inspiration to help you reach your raw vegan and health goals.
- These recipes are so good, that you can serve them to any standard American diet eater, and they will be just as thrilled and satisfied as you.
- They’ll never guess how healthy and delicious granola, fries, onion rings, garlic butter, creamy soups, tantalizing salads that go beyond boring greens, pad thai, quiche, alfredo, cheesecake and fudge can be!
And those are just a few of the fresh and gorgeous dishes you’ll find inside Nude Food.
The best part, these recipes don’t focus on the heavy, overly salty, intense spices and expensive extras found in most raw food recipe books.
Shakaya’s recipes focus on the perfection of the tastes of nature. Her recipes leave you feeling light, fresh, and fabulous, not heavy, tired and over-done.
If you’re looking for the inspiration and enjoyment to help get you on, keep you on, or inspire your raw food taste buds again, YOU NEED Nude Food!
Organic vs. Conventional Farming

The “experts” have waxed poetic on how there is no nutritional or environmental benefit to organic farming, basically chalking it up to a sales gimmick… well, now for the first time someone has actually done a study. A 30 year study…

Found this neat litte guy in Mashable today… Check out Farmigo to find locally grown food in your area by zip code. Very cool! It seems to work only in US & Canada for now, but it looks like it could grow to be an amazing worldwide resource!
A Gift for You
Posted by admin | Filed under Freebies, Water
If you’ve been interested in raw food for any length of time, you have probably heard of Masuru Emoto. If you haven’t heard of him, here is an introduction fro wikipedia:
Masaru Emoto (江本 勝 Emoto Masaru?, born July 22, 1943) is a Japanese author and entrepreneur known for his claims that human consciousness has an effect on the molecular structure of water. Emoto’s hypothesis has evolved over the years of his research. Initially Dr. Emoto claimed that high-quality water forms beautiful and intricate crystals, while low-quality water has difficulty forming crystals. According to Dr. Emoto, an ice crystal of distilled water exhibits a basic hexagonal structure with no intricate branching. Emoto claims that positive changes to water crystals can be achieved through prayer, music or by attaching written words to a container of water.
Since 1999 Emoto has published several volumes of a work titled Messages from Water, which contains photographs of water crystals next to essays and “words of intent.”
For the longest time, I’ve been meaning to make some pretty labels for my water cooler. Busyness and perhaps slight self-consciousness held me back for some time. But tonight, while I was waiting for a client to send an email, I decided to finally spend the time putting something together, and I thought I would share them with you.
If you like them, just click the image to download a printable pdf version. If you’re smart, like my friend Shakaya, you can print them and have them laminated for long-term use. Whatever you do, I hope you enjoy them!
For now, I’ll be using mine on my bottled water, but I’m excited that when I move to my new home at the end of September, I’ll be relatively close to a high-quality natural spring. Yay!

Want to make money as a Raw Food Teacher? KarenKnowler will show you how
I’ve known Karen Knowler for about 6 years. I did some fun super K illustrations for her back then and have followed her work since, even sharing in a disastrous interview with her at The Raw Divas, where thanks to her foresight and organization, she sailed through like the star that she is, while her interviewer disappeared to chase after kids and I was left to carry on, flustered and unprepared, in what unexpectedly became one of my very first teleseminars.
I’m happy to say that Karen is always just as confident, professional, and prepared as she was in that less than ideal interview! I highly recommend any and all of her materials. She is full of integrity, knowledge and talent that will be sure to benefit anyone who takes a course with her.
If you’d like to make money teach the raw food lifestyle to others, or if you’re looking for ways of translating your passion for health into a viable career, check out Karen’s Raw Food Made Simple Teacher Training. There are only 50 spots and they’re sure to fill up fast!
