I want to thank everyone who has participated in this RawFoodTalk.com forum. There have been some amazing exchanges here and so many words of wisdom spoken. But its time for me to close this board. I am moving on to new ventures and feel that its time for me to let this go. A forum of this size takes loads of money, time and energy. I have not been keeping up with the forum upgrades, the spam problems, etc…. which is resulting in many disgruntled emails and people calling the office daily. I’m sorry to disappoint the many of you who have spent your time and wonderful words of help and inspiration here. I hope that you have all benefited from this board and that it has helped you on your path to optimal health. I know many of you have made lasting friendships here as well. I will leave this board up for a month of so, so that you may copy what you need and any information you would like to save.

Thank you for being part of the RawFoodTalk.com community! It’s been a wonderful ride! I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next for all of you and of course, you can keep up with my adventures through my blog, Facebook and twitter. I am continuing my certification trainings and there will be some exciting new classes, events and projects coming into fruition in the near future!

All my best,
Alissa

Happy Relaxing Day

Today is a place of peace... being in transition into the raw eating world is where I am. Making progress now lots of new recipes, and lots of cleansing. Phew!

I was up last night started my day at 3:00 am my guy does this also we call this our inspiration time. The world is so quiet beautifully still .... the stars and the stars systems are in full view. Amazing the galaxy we live in.. isn't it? Early morning is rather a mystical time beautifully reflective. I came to this place of peace an inner knowing of sorts one could say. Looking what lies within not what lies ahead is the importance of this journey.

A place of acceptance and peace I feel for life. My journey into a vegetarian lifestyle has been one year now. I completely gave up chicken one year ago... I gave up fish 6 months now. I gave up all dairy one month or more. So the transition really continues. Each day we are faced with transition of some sort... we can know this for sure. Life changes in ways that surprise this. I did not even plan this and here it is. My plan was and is to be the healthiest and most vibrant radiant soul that is possible.

Things have a way of just happening. It seems my job may be cut and even eliminated
while this seems like alot I am also dealing with a mom newly diagnosed with Alzheimers. Boy when it rains it rains an abundance of tasks to do. I am a strong person but know taking care of self is of the most importance. Now that is why being on this raw journey is great. It is easy and yet I do eat some cooked brown rice sometimes, or enjoy a mostly raw pizza. I don't have a dehydrator yet so we buy the crust gluten free in the frozen section of the co-op. All other ingredients are completely raw ..a good raw transition food.

Life is a journey and we can only change when we are ready.... motivated to stay in the transformation and feel it is right. So there is no beating up on myself here.

I wish for you a beautiful weekend that is alive, magical and fully supports you on all levels.

Be Well and Inspired!
Cheers, Sollena
