Congrats Pam, I just read your update about diabetics and that you got off your drugs! And then you have the "nerve" to say in your update that nothing happened since January 2009... Girl you are doing great and a lot has happened. Good to see you online again a little bit again. I also worked on your tips for beginners exercises. The only one I could not find with Google was the butt raises. Could you clarify those?
Good luck with the renovation and enjoy spring! With love Miriam
Hi
Would you mind me asking what adrenal meds you managed to come off? Its just that I am about to be put on spironolactone as I have very over active adrenal glands causing uncontrollable high blood pressure. I have had very high stress for many years both work and relationship related but this has now greatly decreased. I am also overweight and have been on 8/1/1 now 6 weeks so losing it slowly. I do not want to put any drugs into my system if I can help it as my body has been pumped for years with every hypertension medication on the market and none worked, I just suffered the side-effects. I have managed to come off all these but the treade off is to now begin spironolactone to see if this will reduce the blood pressure so I was very interested to see your comment. Thanks Anita
Yay - new found energy....that's the best!!! Yeah, I think I'll contact the publishing company. That's very interesting about Raw Spirit & Dr. D....maybe they figured out that it looked pretty bad to shun him and went out of their way to invite him again! Who knows!? I haven't been to any potlucks in a long time so I don't know how it's coming but am curious. I'm not going to volunteer, just go so I can enjoy as much music as possible---I will certainly hear more more than speakers!! There is sooooo many amazing artists there, I promise you won't be disappointed if you go just for Doug and get to hear so music too!
Hey there Pam! It's been a long time since I connected with you! How are you doing there? I never made sure you got the book but figured you would let me know it not =) You know the strangest thing about your book is that is missing around 30 pages in the FAQ section completely...they were just not bound in the book. I wonder if you have the receipt from were you bought it, maybe I should call them and they could send another book or something? I'm not that concerned about it really for my self but I thought it would be nice if I loaned it out to other people. Either way it's all good! Oh yeah-Dr. Graham is going to be at Raw Spirit Fest! I wonder if that rumor was ever true about him not wanted there?! Strange, but I'm excited =) Well lady I hope you doing your best, would love to know...
I send you an email already. So looking forward to what you will be sending me.
On my pc I made a bookmark called inspiration. When I feel bored, bad, uninspired or down I click on any item in there. it might be an article that inspired me in the past or a video that makes me laugh. Your mp3 will probably go in there as well. Sometimes we need someone to guide us back to a good place :-)
I am happy that also 811 has people interested in abe and byron katie and others. Of course I would say, still happy that you mentioned it.
hi Pamfree, what is this talking about mp3's in the comment of dream? Do you have inspirational ones that you can point out to me?
I read the article on Holistic Primary Care, did you find it on the site of Jon Abrams? I like the part about the body wanting to be fat and therefore not able to let go of the weight. It makes sense, and refers to the vibrational part of us as pointed out by Abraham. Good to have like minded people to share a bit of the way. see you.
I hear ya...I started this raw journey over six years ago and I only started getting into Abraham/Hicks about a year ago. I attended Dr. Graham's Health & Fitness week and learned about raw there. I wasn't particularly interested in raw food before going, I just wanted to lose some weight. It was such a loving, upbeat and supportive week I felt like I was floating home when it was done. I decided to continue eating that way for a while and thought if I got sick from it I would just switch back. The first couple of years I had some odd cravings (like for plain vinegar) and ate much more than 10% from fat but now I eat mostly mono meals and my fat is 3-4% and I have never felt better. Eating and living this way is totally second nature and people are often commenting on how happy I seem (I am). I love the food I eat but I don't try to use it as an emotional crutch like I had for most of my life. When I am happy and on-track (downstream :) in other areas of my life food is just food. It is a means for me to feel spiritually lighter and freer...but that is just my path. Only you know what is right for you!
Hi Pam, you mentioned you were using the Abraham/Hicks stuff for working on making raw less burdensome. I am just curious in what ways you find it burdensome. Maybe just because I have been living this way for a few years that the only burden I have is when I am trying to carrying 14 cantaloupes up the stairs to my apartment (weight training, I guess) :)
The website I sent you is the main site for the AIM Program. However I actually prefer this one www.returntowellbeing.com There is a lot more info on it and I think its better organized, and easier to find what I want. This website is Arun Dykes website who is a facilitator for the AIM program for the Northwest region of the U.S. (A person you can ask questions to about the program and will help you with anything you need) I would recommend clicking on the 'Dr. Wayne Dyer' link on the home page and listening to that first. It is a great short intro to the program. There is a plethora of info on the site...all kinds of audio/video things to watch and listen to and stuff to read. There is also a book explaining the program, how it works and how it came to be what it is today. You can also get a free information kit. Being on this program has changed my life in so many ways. It is unbelievable and a miracle!
Awesome thanks for sharing! I think its great that your goals are for more than just health and fitness too - i.e. your career. Good luck and feel free to post your progress to :)
Ignorance is bliss apparently... I don't justify myself to anyone I just don't care what they think anymore. I have more important things to worry about.
just wanted to add that I have scored ripe bananas at a good price at airports before so it is worth looking around particularly at bigger airports (and the look on your fellow travellers' faces when you're chowing down on 10 nanners at 30k ft is pr…
Hello my fellow raw goodies! I want to share a little secret that involves skin :) I'm reaching out to all because I know we are all on a conscious and positive path of life. We all have come here to enrich and better our lives through eating health…
Ever since I first heard eggs described as chicken menstruations I've had a problem ingesting them.
I second this Sultana, for sure.
Thanks B, excellent info as usual!
Europe is different.
People started to think about nature and saving nature early on.
We have alot of law regulations about animal treatment at the farms and they are well let us say getting "closer" to the natural one.
for example cows are free run…
no haven't heard that about the soap and cancer, seeing it's allopathic in nature (addressing a symptom not the cause) I can't imagine how that would work.
My teeth look fairly white to me, at the start they did have these vertical stains but now t…
