View Full Version : My Article in Experience Life Magazine
Finally the article is out in May's issue of Experience Life Magazine. You can read it on-line for those of you who don't get the magazine, however, the layout on-line is different than the one in print. The one in print has pictures of me exercising and one photo with me and my family.

I am bummed that I mentioned my website address, as well as Raw Food Talk's website in the article and they said they didn't have room to include the website addresses so they took them out. However the article is still good. May's magazine has a lot of information about veganism so they thought my success story would fit well there. I think it is kind of cool the magazine article is in May the month I will be turning 40. Kind of neat.

Morn there are a couple of things I noticed in your web page. One is that in the old photos, your face was red. Is that color true, or did you change your makeup, or was the redness due to SAD diet and went away?
The other is, you mention a heel spur in your list of goals but I don't see where you ever mention it again. Did you ever get rid of it and how long did it take?
thanks Myca

Dear Morn, thank you for sharing! I really enjoyed reading the article about your transformation! The journalist really took the time to capture your journey. From only knowing you from this site, I could feel your energy in the article if that makes any sense. I felt she was true to describing your experience and sharing that being a raw foodist is a lifestyle choice. You also look very beautiful in the featured photo. I love how the photographer snapped it with you in the produce section.:) Many congratulations. I hope all is well in your life. Blessings.

Yes that was my true color at the time. And Yes probably due to the SAD diet I was on. It did go away.
I still have a heel spur, however, with losing a lot of weight it helped tremendously with alleviating the constant pain I was in. I still have pain now from it but it is usually when I overdo the exercise and it flares up. It is not as painful as it used to be (but still an issue).
Thanks all for you kind words. The photographer that shot that picture was my husband and it was at a local grocery store.:)

You look absolutely gorgeous in the online pic, Morn. What a great example you are for the raw food life style and how powerful it can be in promoting health and well being in us Hu-Maans! Congratulations and I hope you have a very Happy Birthday and many more. I have found great inspiration from your website and your posts here.
I am sure people who are curious will visit your site and find their way here!

This is great Morn. It's been a while since I posted or ate 100% raw. And I need to so badly. Thanks for the inspiration.
You have good reason to be proud. May we all follow in your footsteps!

Morn- I AM SO PROUD OF YOU! What a great article. It does a fabulous job of giving you recognition for all of your efforts to be healthier and happier.
The picture of you at the grocery store is STUNNING. You have beautiful, porcelain skin (better than Nicole Kidman's!), and you look so happy and at ease with yourself and the world.
Many congratulations to you, not only for the article, but, more importantly, for your vibrant health and vitality!

I got the magazine out of the mailbox yesterday and was flipping through it when I saw your picture. I said, "That's Morn! She's on my rawfoodtalk board!!" I must have been overly excited because my husband looked at me very strangely. I thought the article was well done and I was very pleased that you were in a good issue with a lot of information about the mind-body connection etc. Way to go Morn!! You are my inspiration!!
Much Love.
