Food for Thought: Does the Food Industry really use us as lab rats?

I find it interesting that so many are comfortable with loading our systems with chemicals.  Many of us are dining out of a laboratory.  This is much of the reason why so many suffer today.  Much of the so-called food out there is not REAL food at all.  Remember back in the day when going out to eat at a place even like Mickey D's was a special treat to be indulged only occassionally?  Now it is an everyday stop for a quick meal.  Drive down any street in America and the growing number of fast food, restaurant chains are astounding.  We are what we eat so why is it that so many don't seem to care enough to read the label of ingredients?  Have you checked lately?  If you haven't, I have come to learn to continue to check ingredients to even your old favorites.  Recipes and ingredients change over time, especially when it means cheaper ingredients and bigger profits.  Wow.  Grow your own food people, in the meantime, gather your food from

Week1 of the Heal Thyself Collective Circle

First meeting was an absolute success!


I am proud to say that we have formed a very beautiful Heal Thyself Collective Circle and the healing is already beginning! When we come together there is no stopping us as we stay focused on our goals! This is the week to knock the dust off of those books,and juicers, food processors, blenders. It is time to sharpen those knives, and organize your space. Clear away what does not serve you on your self-healing journey.

I am so proud of all who came out to our very first gathering! Thank you Juaua Tafari for blessing us with the tasty food! I am looking forward all the wonderful things that will come out of this. We have a range from novice to expert in our group and there is so much talent and resources that we have in our midst.  We had wonderful attendance and the energy was flowing. If anyone need notes from today, please contact me. Next week's gathering will be at Crossroads Charter High School 5500 N. Tryon St, Charlotte, NC.  The time will shift up an hour to begin at 1pm-3pm. I hear that it is a football championship day so we are in conflict with the games (our male presence in the group has informed me).  I also hear that Superbowl will be three weeks away but, begins in the evening a few hours after we conclude our meeting.  I am sure that the football fans will be out quickly.  Maybe we can come up with some tasty raw, vegan, cleansing foods and juices for the occasion. Is it possible?  We will see.  The wheels in my mind are turning.  Stay tuned.



Next weeks topic is DETOXING OUR LIVES. We are cleaning house on so many levels with this one. I hope you are keeping up with your folders. We will build our arsenal along the journey. Thank you so much to all who came and if you missed this one, you can still come out, it is not too late & go ahead and bring someone with you.

The journey has only just begun. 866-944-9560 ext.703
