September was jam packed with a series of wonderful health gatherings. On September 7th I hosted the Community Raw Food Potluck. We have a great time, share delicious dishes and have fun socializing around a 'health' theme. Check out the photos. On a personal note, I love the raw food diet having attended the Hippocrates Health Institute in 1975. However, I support all natural diets and encourage each person to find their way with the diet.

The following Friday, September 13, I had a GAPS™ Group at my home. I gave a PowerPoint - Lesson 1 - Intro to the Gut & Psychology Syndrome diet and program. We had time for sharing and Q&A. One women brought wonderful goodies from her farm: fresh goat yogurt made from milk from her goats, a variety of squash cooked and with a demo of many way to use it, and a food sampling of a bread made with almond flour, vinaigrette, tomato and cucumber salad plus. I plan to have the next one on October 26, Saturday, 5:30-7:30pm.

Then on September 20-21, Ann Baldwin PhD and I gave our 8-hour workshop, Staying' Alive - A Mindful Eating workshop. We are both very inspired by people's willingness to choose natural health over a processed food and body life. The workshop is experiential. Tanya Whitman of Yoga Oasis came Saturday at noon and gave us an hour yoga class. It rocked. Meal planning for the evening and day included raw juices, green smoothies, salad dressings, sprouts and a luscious dessert, the Key Lime Cream Pie and all raw. Students had the opportunity to experience 'nutrient dense' natural food. Ann guided people into 'coherent' breathing through various computer models and games plus she shared the latest research on stress in relation to weight gain.

We will keep you informed about our next workshop. In the meantime, check out the Plant Based Nation Workshop. Ann and I are giving a talk, Solutions for Sugar and Stress, November 10, Sunday as part of their daylong workshop on plant based natural health. The workshop is a great opportunity for you, your family and friends to hear phenomenal speakers, sample natural foods and enhance your health protocol.

What are clients doing? Here's the latest from the cleansing front. A few have very successfully undertaken the Arise & Shine 14-Day Cleanse. A few have done the Dr Schulze Bowel Detox, and his 30-day program that includes 2 Bowel Detoxes, 1 Liver Gall Bladder Detox and 1 Kidney Detox. Heavy metal chelation, vitamin C drips, Insulin Potentiated Therapy, the 3-Day Cleanse are other therapies clients are using. One client did a 15-day raw juice fast and she said she handled the stress of a move and work issues very calmly. She also lost her belly fat. I share this to let you know you can accompany your colonic with a cleanse or detox! 

Be in touch, and be in detox,

Solutions for Sugar and Stress!

Download Workshop Flyer!

Session One: 8:30 - 10am Room 2: Ann Baldwin and Sheila Shea present 'Solutions for Sugar and Stress'. Let's become aware of our bodies and how our bodies feel. We'll start off with a stretch.  Sheila will then address real and chemical sugars, fructose metabolism and sugar imbalance diseases. Interactive exercise: How to read ingredients labels for sugars.  Stress increases cortisol levels that increase blood sugar glucose levels. This is fine when you need it but not when it's chronic.  Ann will address how chronic stress affects sugar imbalance. How can we control our stress response and reduce sugar levels? Stress results from emotional responses that strain the heart. Ann will be teaching you a breathing and emotional restructuring technique that will give you control of your heart, emotions and stress levels. Interactive exercise: fun computer games to show when you have overcome stress!  To close, Sheila will provide a list of what you need in your natural kitchen to move away from the processed food world. Ann will end with a relaxing meditation.

No refunds on series.
