Heal Thyself Collect Circle gets a break this Sunday due to the Superbowl

What can I say?  Not being an avid football fan, I have been out of touch with the football schedule or the importance of such events, even if they take place in the evening.  

After much consideration, since it is Super Bowl Sunday, I have decided to cancel this Sunday's gathering.  We will resume the following Sunday, 2/11/12 at 2pm-4pm. Originally, this was supposed to be the beginning of our cleansing/fasting process.  We should already have begun increasing our raw fruits, and vegetable consumption, along with whole grains, herbal tonics & especially water.  Also we have discussed other cleansing methods such as the Kidney Liver Flush (recipe available in Heal Thyself), various juicing combinations, baths, enemas, saunas, deep breathing exercises, etc...This is the time to dust off raw food cookbooks or search the net.  There is a wealth of information available.  I am still extending the offers from last week including shopping and food preparation assistance.  The support and the journey continues even during Super Bowl.  I hope that you enjoy the festivities without succumbing to the temptations to pollute your body.  There are always going to be a challenges and special occasions that will make the journey difficult.  I suggest that you prepare healthful, hearty and tasteful dishes that all can enjoy and the reward is for those who are steadfast in their purpose.  

I will share my recipe of avocado dip that I alternate between using tomatoes or mangos.

2 avocados
1 tomato or small mango
1/2  sm red onion or 2 stalks of green onion
1/2 tsp minced garlic
organic apple cider vinegar
extra virgin olive oil
Pink Himalayan Crystal Salt
dill weed
parsley


Cut avocados in half and remove seed.  I slice the avocados cross-ways and scoop out the avocado which makes cubes.  I peel and cut the mango on both side of the large flat seed and slice crossways and add to the bowl of avocado.  Dice up 1/2 small red onion or chop up green spring onion.  Add approx 1/2 tsp of minced garlic or 1-2 cloves finely chopped.  This is the part where I really do not measure.  I add a splash or 2 (according to taste) of organic apple cider vinegar and about 2 tbs of olive oil.  Then I add the dill weed, parsley, and pink himalayan crystal salt to taste.  Mix and enjoy.  This goes well with raw veggies (carrot sticks, celery, broccoli florets, etc...) whole grain tortilla chips or pita wedges.  

Additionally, Juliette Chambers has offered her delicious Kale Salad recipe
1 bunch of Kale washed thoroughly and chopped thin
1-2 grated carrots grated
1 medium beet grated
2-3 radishes grated
2-3 sprigs of cilantro chopped
add apple cider vinegar, olive oil, seasonings such as Herb'N Spice (original blend), pink himalayan crystal salt, or spike's.  Mix and enjoy.  This is a dish that actually gets better as it sets for a while.  

Please enjoy a safe and healthy weekend.  Call me for assistance or scheduling appointments             866-944-9560       ext# 703.
