I just wanted to share I AM A RAW FOODIST. :D

This morning while sitting at my picnic table viewing the garden & meditating with my serene life size buddha statue which always seems to be coaching me in meditation :), I looked down at my plate of simple whole breakfast foods. The sunflower sprouted greens with slices of avocado looked like sparkling energy and so fresh. The sliced kiwi fruit stood out against the background of the raised white square plate so beautifully with the sun glistening on it. It looked like beautiful green flowers with blossoms of brown & yellow seeds in the middle. I even noticed the brilliant starburst design in this food. My cucumber-celery-ginger juice with a slice of lemon sparkled in it's glass. I immediately thought wow, I'm eating and drinking in the sun and I felt the sun radiating on my face at the same time and it felt wonderful. The thought then flashed across my mind's eye as I chewed on this vibrant food, I am so happy being a raw foodist and I felt it in my entire being. There was no question of where I am right now and how far I've come from the challenges we all face along this path. It's a beautiful feeling being where I am and being completely certain, peaceful and calm in my body eating raw foods. I said it aloud, "I am a raw foodist" and after I said this a blue jay started chirping loudly as they tend to do as if to say, "right on sister!", lol. In that moment, I really, really felt a profound, powerful connection to the earth, the sun, my backyard-ha and well, everything.

Just sharing the good feelings and offering an invitation to anyone reading this to affirm to yourself that...you are also a Raw Foodist. Affirmations are very powerful and manifest so much power. Think of 100 people stating it on this thread. The WOW factor is already vibrating.

Much love to all those who appreciate & love their bodies enough to be on this path. Much much more love to those in our lives who aren't there yet. Maybe with our shining example, they will one day experience the joy of living this way or at the very least incorporating more whole foods into their diet. Which brings so many unexpected gifts and blessings beyond eating delicious & empowering foods.

Shout it out loud!

I AM A RAW FOODIST!!

I AM A RAW FOOD EATER
Its amazing how eating the right fuel for the body seems to connect a person with their body, the planet, the moment, and everything that is happening around them. The longer I travel on the raw food path the better it just keeps getting and the better I feel. Everyone have a great day :)

leave it to the nonconformist types that go in for raw foods, when you tell them to all shout "i am a raw foodist" they shout:

"me too!"
"i am a raw food eater"
"i am a raw vegan"

hahahahahahaha!!! while our cheerleading skills may need polishing, our hearts are pure--and so are our colons.

i'll chime in there with you crystal:

I AM A RAW FOODIE... I MEAN FOODIST!

Hahahaaaa maui_butterfly! So true! Well if I'm not a non-conformist I don't know what I am, lol. I've always been the "weird one" in my circles. Yeah, I suppose people get hung up on titles. Whatever you wanna call yourself, Raw Food Vegan Mighty Warrior Foodist Vegan Wild Food Eater kick ass fill in the blank, I think it's all good. LOL. I just wanted to share my good feelings and that I'm beginning to understand the beauty of all this raw veganism..not sure if it's something you can convey clearly and make complete sense of...but I thought I'd give it a shot. :p

Peace to you sister and have a great day.

I AM A RAW FOODIST!!


Wow! I am having the same revelation as I start my very first Master Cleanse. I left the market today with my little bag of lemons. And the food in the other aisle did not call to me. It was totally freeing to walk out of the store with $11 worth of lemons and not feel like I just had to have more.

I AM A RAW FOODEST AND I'M PROUD!!!
