Biggest news about me in 2007? I went 100% raw vegan in April this year. I needed a change, I was sick and tired of being sick and tired all the time. Overweight, depressed, moody I prayed one night to my higher power to please give me a sign, to tell me something I could do to chaneg my life. The next day as I was checking emails, down as ever...I started randomly searching the internet and put words in the search engine of my portal such as depression, health, nutrition and lo and behold I discovered the raw food diet movement..I was vegan already, I devoured all the information I could get I read and read and read and at the end of March I went raw cold turkey 100%. The detox symptoms were hellish but after 2 weeks all sorts of things started happening. Insomnia gone! Depression gone! Achy tired feeling all the time gone! I was happier, I smiled, I giggled, I felt rested,m people told me I glowed...Things in my life started to change...the weight started melting off, my aches disappeared, grumpiness and frequent bad moods gone..! Now a few months later my body looks better, I feel better and my heart is lighter and overflowing with love for life in all its manifestations. I am so grateful…feeling so blessed and joyful on my path – life is great and I am full of gratitude :)
Somehow I know things will work out for me, and those around me. I am hopeful, not fearful anymore and happy! I feel happy happy happy all the time! Its amazing. :)))
I am into living naturally in today's world. I am a vessel and flame of pure love.
As I begin to feel better and awaken, I am full of joy and want to share my joy with others. Eating a raw vegan diet has made me more generous and I want to share with others these feelings. Yay!
I am living the best life ever.
Eating a raw vegan diet is the first step for me towards this path and way of life.
I love raw chocolate, superfoods and being blissed out on life and nature. Join me and together we can be vibrantly alive!!

The only One holding you back ... ~~IS YOU!~~ .. ..
Ahh, that's wonderful you had a great time! Knew you would! :D ...yeah, Rawbin is fab! I've yet to do a full blog hop to read everyone's experiences at the Fest. Will do that sometime over this weekend. Glad you are having a good time in Austin, getting things done. It's cool you extended your trip to the states. If you happen to head back our way, definitely let us know. Hubs and I are doing very well. Things are happy and time is moving fast! I'll have to see about hooking you up with some o' that "granola" :P
Hey There. :) I just hadn't stopped by to say hello for awhile. I wanted to tell you our healthy chocolate is coming your way more all the time. We will be in the UK come January. :)
