We, the People, used to grow/raise our own food and ferment or preserve it. Now, most of us are at least two generations from knowing how to produce and preserve our own food. We’re mostly dependent upon the food industry for just about everything. And we’re dependent upon the pharmaceutical industry for everything else. What’s […]
A big smile is on my face as I write this post. I stood up today from my exercises without grabbing a chair for support. I didn’t even think about it, I just stood up, and then it hit me what I’d done. I’ve attain a new level of freedom. I’ve gained enough in coordination […]
I promised I would share the gifts the universe brought to me when I asked for help. Today I want to share Christopher Maher, my soul brother. I met him in 2006 when I was looking for help with my son, Joshua. Joshua was always angry. I heard that this man, Chris, had a way of stretching […]

To grossly summarize the experiment, the cats were divided into three groups: (Group 1) fed raw milk and raw meat, […]
When the student is ready, the teacher will come. God, the Universe, whatever is out there that cares for our existence, is responsive. I decided that change must happen – I had to shake this lethergy and prison of fat. I didn’t exactly know how. But my intentions were broadcast and the response has been incredible. […]
And now… For the Magician’s Greatest Trick… Cutting a Woman in Half. This is a story about a woman who once carried an extra 200 pounds on her short frame. But the story isn’t so much about losing the weight as it is about dealing with the cause of the weight. Cutting the woman in […]
A few years ago I wrote a piece on how I lost weight using raw food. I submitted it to the San Diego Reader, my local news magazine. I had hoped to incur some interest in my business by sharing how raw food had saved my life. The editor contacted me and told me to skip […]
When I started making food with my two young friends, I had no idea what creative genius they would bring to the playground. Both boys were curious, creative and courageous. In no time, the tame ReDried beans I had made became a mountain. And then fresh oregano became trees. Soon thereafter a ball of papaya […]
