Do you feel out of sync? Like all the wheels and gears are not lining up, running smoothly together, creating forward ecstatic motion? Is your life, your daily activities, all you do, say and ARE BEING lining up in harmony with your values, your desires and all you want out of life? Meaningful life and feeding one's spirit is an intention, it does not often just happen by itself, without an intention. Sometimes, many times, getting unstuck is done simply by putting the car in GEAR! For me, the wheels are set in motion when I shift into first gear. No, no, I did not say when I hit fourth gear and go zero to 60 in 3.2 seconds! ...or get there yesterday (even though that is what we want many times). Ok, on that point, to get there yesterday, we need to create our today in harmony with what we want, 1/4 mile at a time or more, or less. Then we look back and we got there yesterday...hahaha Take that step, whatever it is, whatever you have been wanting to do...

Energy and how we choose to use it on any given day is a "make it or break it" for our spirit. Actually the two are very connected and are the very same thing on many levels. We are either being contractive or expansive in our thoughts, actions, words, activities. So with the same amount of energy we have to be in wishing for how we think life is supposed to be, we can choose to see life as it is, although, yes, setting goals and reaching for more of what we want, but in free flow. Let me illustrate: you want a different car. In fact, you complain every day about the old one, are embarrassed in it and tell everyone how awful the car is. Using that same energy to be in what IS and being totally grateful you dont have to walk everywhere you want to go, making the best of that car possible is a better way to feed your spirit. While making steps to have that other car, you are content with what you have and are in expansive energy. You might even tell others how excited yo...

Awwww today I went out on my favorite back road, a world away from bizzyness of life, where a breath of air is as refreshing as life itself! I was eager to pick up some food, while I was there for my run, to come back and make my medicine via juice! I pick dandelions and nettles as well as wild mint! Well it appears that Mr. Frosty came last night and sought to steal them away! I had a bit of low and wrinkled brow face (NOT) on for a second. Then I saw that he did not get most of them! Wooohooooo Celebrate good times c'mon! So I picked bunches and bunches for my juicy juice lunches. As I settled down in to pick them, with gloved hand yes!, my bottom side hit some nettles behind me. Even through my leggings I felt them. Here I was feeling a tad bum (hahahaha) about this (not really just making it fun) and that I might be itching up a storm. Well, let that be a lesson to me. Moral of the story, don't fuss bout stuff that has not happened! All good. I have lovely juice coming soon...

I have been hearing of sooo much illness these days. Also feeling really grateful that my life does not consist of running off to the doctor/ER/lab etc for any number of invasive and/or painful stuffs!!!! How grateful we can be, those of us who have been turned onto raw food, food of this earth, from which we came, and seen the profound results it has brought to our bodies!! I am feeling so grateful for raw today. How about you? Love from my grateful heART to yours, Muah, Bette Bliss

Have you heard that before? I have heard it a million times. Well, not quite a million but ALOT! What is the deal? Why do people have such a hard time to keep it real and keep it raw. I suppose one can come up with a lot of reasons why they eat cooked foods. What is the way to see clear to get and stay raw? Is there a way? Well sometimes it just has to be the progression of things. Some go raw as soon as they hear, others toy with it and add raw more often, some go back and forth between raw and cooked. I see the key is this: getting clear on what you want for your health and your life. Ask yourself "what is my powerful reason WHY I want to eat raw foods? If you dwell with that for a while, getting clear on what it is you are wanting and WHY, then every food choice, made from that place, will be a raw one. If this is not the case, the committment is not strong enough. This has nothing to do with will power when you choose from this powerful reason WHY. This is the differenc...

Have you heard the superfood buzz? All the powders and potions and stuff you can send away for? Things that take time and big fat bux to order? Is THIS what I am talking about when I say the word "super foods"? As you may have seen on our app, Superfood Hd, we do cover some of these types of super foods. Although these are beneficial and a good addition to your diet, I am talking about powerful, nutrient dense, foods that are right in your local garden, field, grocery store or health food store! That's right! Common everyday foods are loaded with phytochemicals that raise the level of your health beyond what you might imagine.   The key is to eat these foods in their whole, raw, natural state. This not only preserves the enzymes, by not cooking them, but it also does not alter their makeup. Did you know many foods change into something else when cooked? Most of the time, it is renderded useless for the body. Example: potatoes turn into a substance called acrilomide...

Isn't this life just one CLASS ACT? The ACT of BEING ALIVE! What is ALIVE? What does being alive mean? Are you truly alive? How do you know? What if you just happen to be a walking dead person? Well, lets not go quite that far. What is you are living at LESS THAN your full potential? How would you know? Hmmmmm? Well do you feel your absolute best or less than the best? Do you have energy to burn or lack energy? Do you have a worldview, perspective, that can take you through anything or do you cave in at the slightest disappointment? So you DO jump out of bed in the morning to go running, seizing the day before it gets away? You just cannot wait to go to work and make a difference in the world with what you do? You cannot wait t o make all of your yummy food for the day and love every bite, it bringing you nothing but bliss and joy? Oh, and your relationships...ummm, you knew I was going there next didn't you? Are all of your relationships healthy and happy and bring you and the...
