Clean out the Colon with Simple Foods

Food prep for the day :
Apple juice for 2 using 6 apples.
Smoothie for 2: 2 bananas, 1/4 papaya, 1/4 pineapple, 4 strawberries, 2 cups frozen wild blueberries, 2 Tbsp ground flaxseed, arugula and herbs from the garden, water.
Veggie Cocktails for 2: 6 carrots, 6 stalks celery, 1/2 beet, 1 pear, 1/2 bunch cilantro.
Cut up avocado and tomato to add to the salad left from yesterday.
Lunch: Green smoothie; apple juice; almonds
Dinner: Veggie cocktail; sauerkraut; green salad (added some cole slaw mix to the salad left from yesterday; chopped tomato and avocado for salad; leftover green lava; banana.
One of the first lessons I was taught as I began to study Natural Hygiene and Nature Cure is to trust the process. Even when it seems like you are getting worse, you are getting better when you are doing the right thing. So don't be afraid to do the right thing. We have to be patient, as the healing does not take place overnight. For most of us we didn't get in the shape we are in overnight, and the reversal will take a little time as well. The good news, though, is that you will be getting better within a short time.
Cleaning out your colon is the best gift you can give yourself. What you eat affects how you feel and how you think. The body and mind are connected. Instead of treating symptoms such as blood sugar imbalances, thyroid imbalance, food allergies, and other issues address the cause. Clean out the lymph system. Clean out your colon. Our diseases are our feedback system to warn us we are making mistakes.
One of the main benefits of living the simple, natural lifestyle is being able to have a clearer perception of the world. There is nothing we have to "get" that we don't already have. The quest is to learn to let go the things that bind us. We are so used to being in bondage to our poor health, lack of vitality, medicines, lack of energy, lack of motivation, stimulants to get us going, and programmed thinking that the idea of being free of all of that is quite scary. So we say living biogenically sounds restrictive; it sounds like a bunch of "thou shalt nots". We don't want to give up our comfort foods or our comfort habits of tobacco and alcohol that help us cope in our bondage. We feel like if our comforts disappear, we will have nothing left.
But when we use our intelligence and will-power to let go of the foods and habits that are keeping us in our misery, we begin to see that we have not been told the truth. We begin to learn things for ourselves from our own experience. We learn to think for ourselves. Once we find the confidence to do what we need to do, we will live with more peace and calm. The results are worth the effort.

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...
