In light of a recent thread questioning a lot of Natural Hygiene principles, I thought I'd bring up some "allopathic" scientific research being done on how the foods we eat directly affect the…Continue

I saw this video last week and Victoria's recent thread brought it to mind again. It takes a lot of courage to be open to love and connection and counter intuitively, being vulnerable is what makes…Continue

Marisa replied to Lala M. Apples's discussion Natural hair care (those with black/african hair)

"I'm very much not african, but I've got curly hair. I use water to rinse my hair every day (due to workouts, I prefer to wait 2-3 days when I can) and then use a tiny bit of shea butter on the ends while wet and let it air dry. Sometimes…"

Marisa replied to Viktoriya's discussion Shampoo/Conditioner?

"I use a very small amount, like the size of a pea or even less. You can always use more if you didn't get enough the first time, so start small. Before I put it in my hair, I rub it really well between my hands so that it's melted and pat…"

Marisa replied to Viktoriya's discussion Shampoo/Conditioner?

Has fruit changed you on a spiritual level?

In the past, I've come across comments about how eating a very clean diet (no animals, etc.) makes one more open to spiritual experiences, and I'm curious if anyone (else) has found this to be true? I was raised in a family with very strict fundamentalist Christian beliefs, and when I was around 21-22, I decided I really didn't believe any of it and became atheist. I had felt pretty comfortable with my non-belief for close to a decade, but recently that's started to change. I've been absolutely…See More

That was a lightbulb moment for me. The next time this happens, I am going to do as you suggest and focus on the negatives of those bad foods. I am making a note for this new technique on paper to read when it starts to happen! Thank you so very much!
