Important info/Group challenge
I had posted a while back that it's been difficult updating this group with my cell phone and that I had made a group on facebook as well since it's much easier to update there. I'm planning a 21 day challenge focusing on nurturing all the aspects of self, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. The challenge will have…

New to the idea of Raw - need a buddy
Hello All, I've just started to look into Raw till 4 and I'm really interested in re-wiring my body for optimal health. I currently do eat meat, on occasion. But am only reading great stuff about going Raw Vegan. Looking for a buddy that I can journey with. :)

Vipassana
http://www.themindfulword.org/2013/vipassana-meditator-pain-peace/#ekls5GSYW7JJ3Gvi.01 This is a great writing of someone's experience attending the 10 day vipassana meditation center. I highly recommend it if you ever get the chance(it's free so why not!). I only wish I had written about my experience when I got home…
Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain
I wanted to post this separately from our regular video thread. There are thousands of people suffering with Fibromyalgia and other chronic pain disorders. Many of them are told it will never get better and they will live with it for the rest of their life and handed toxic drugs to help ease the pain(which only bring more…
Lightheadedness.
Anyone experience this? The last few days, I've been experiencing this, usually when I get up but a few times when I was already standing. I haven't experienced this while working out and I did a pretty strenuous walk today. I found a few websites that said this could be a side effect of raw food when you begin, but I've…
To graze or not to graze
I just started transitioning into this 80/10/10 diet/lifestyle this past week, and I noticed that I tend to graze. I also saw that chart posted here on food combining, and I was wondering how long after you eat something before it runs into the food or foods you last ate. For example, if I had peanuts an noon, and a banana…
Are Spices Raw?
