A Life of Abundance

I am going through a bit of a healing crisis which is to be expected from time to time as the body makes every effort to eliminate backed up waste matter. Elimination is one of the major factors in living in health. That's why clean eating is so important. We don't want the waste to accumulate faster than the elimination process can work, otherwise, you are being set up for chronic illness. That is also the reason we are so opposed to the suppression of these healing symptoms.

Food prep:

Lemongrass tea.

Juice for two using 5 apples and 1 pear.

Fruit smoothie for lunch : 2 bananas, 1/4 cup ground flaxseed, 1/4 pineapple, 1/4 papaya, 1 cup frozen wild blueberries, 6 big strawberries, water.

Salad for dinner: (romaine, broccoli, cauliflower, red bell pepper, onion, radish, tomatoes)

Lunch: Fruit smoothie; almonds; appple/pear juice; almonds; lemongrass tea

Dinner: Leftover green lava from yesterday; salad

Grocery haul today. Travis bought 10 lbs apples, 4 loose apples and 5 tomatoes for $11.29 at Food Wise.

Natural Hygiene, or the simple, natural life as I like to call it, is not really so difficult once you realize it is not a life of deprivation, but rather the opposite; it is a life of abundance. It is a letting go of all that is not "real". It is liberating to let go of false ideas that we have been taught and for which we hold so many references.

Natural Hygiene and Nature Cure look for the root cause of our problems. Mental tension is reflected in the body. When we are dedicated and disciplined the results are worth the work required. As we do the work we learn from our own personal experience, and this is much better than second-hand learning.

Here I am having dinner with the family.

Two YouTube channels that may be of interest to health seekers. There is a YouTube channel called Chris Beat Cancer with a lot of information for anyone that is interested in dealing with cancer in a natural way. Of course, what works for cancer will work for any disease, as the diagnosis is not that important. The important thing is to give your body everything it needs and eliminate everything it does not in order to give it every advantage you can. The body is a self-healing mechanism.

John Rose also has a YouTube channel with a series of videos on doing a solid food vacation as a way of breaking free of your habitual way of eating. Another YouTube channel I am liking right now is Jack Albritton at Raw Tropical Living.

Happy in the Garden

Yesterday I worked in the garden instead of walking around the neighborhood. It is a different feeling. It's true that I only got in about 6500 steps by the end of the day instead of over 10,000, but it was a different feeling. Travis planted some tomatoes and peppers, I cleaned the lower deck and pulled some weeds. Lucy dug in the dirt and felt so happy. I felt the same way. Working in the garden makes you feel happy and productive. I was puzzled by a plant growing in the herb garden as a weed. I started pulling them out but decided to check if they are edible. Edible weeds, such as dandelion, can be used in our smoothies. I put a picture on Facebook to ask for help identifying the weed, and the consensus is that it is plantain. Some say edible and some say not, but I am inclined to think that it is edible. My brother, Max, lives up in the mountains, and his neighbor says it is edible and the smallest leaves are best with...

The Lou Corona Story

Yesterday, we went to Magic Springs with our daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren. The landscaping there is beautiful this year. This one little flower didn't let a little concrete stop it. Lunch today was three bananas which I ate about 1:30. I'm letting my body rest a little bit after eating too much food the last couple of days. I did domestic chores today. But Travis made a trip to the City Compost Facility for another load of compost. We'll use it on the trees we still have left to plant. We have a volunteer tomato plant coming up in one of the garden beds. It's doing pretty well, too. I have it on my to do list to buy some more tomato cages. The arugula I planted is up. The kale Travis planted is up. The new plum tree is planted. Here is a volunteer Poke Salat that came with the blueberry plant. Travis planted some more blueberries in the blueberry row that lines our driveway. The...

Alko Shredder

It was chilly this morning, but I got out and worked a bit in the garden bed that had the strawberries moved out yesterday. I fed it with the mineral supplement and fertilizer. I started putting on compost, but ran out of time before I finished. We are going to plant some kale in this bed. Bed #3 weeded, minerals added, fertilized, and partly composted. Travis and I went to an estate sale today. First thing we saw was a garden shredder. We bought it for $60.00 and brought it home. There are lots of leaves in my yard that could be shredded. Our new used Alko shredder...made in Germany. For dinner tonight I made a soup. The inspiration came from Dara Dubinet on her You-tube video, but mine was different because I used what we had. My vegetable soup recipe: Juice a beet, 6 carrots, 3 broccoli stalks, and a sweet potato. Then heat a pot of water on the stove, but do not boil. In the Vita-Mix, put 3 med...
