Simple Raw and Natural

Simple Raw & Natural is my quiet corner of the internet where I explore nourishment, beauty, clarity, and the small practices that make life feel meaningful. I write to understand my own life — my health, my curiosity, my community, and the ways we find our way back to presence. My blog is a place for recipes, reflections, glimpses of everyday beauty, and thoughts on creating a healthier, kinder world.

Hi, I’m Janis — welcome to Simple Raw and Natural. This little corner of the internet is where I share what brings meaning, nourishment, and quiet joy to my life. I’m not a chef, a writer, or a political commentator — but I care deeply about good food, beautiful moments, and the kind of world we’re leaving for the next generation. Over the years, I’ve learned that healing — whether of the body, the soul, or society — starts with small, consistent care. A meal made with love. A photo that captures a fleeting moment of beauty. A thought offered with kindness. That’s what I hope to share here. You’ll find a mix of things: Simple recipes made from healing, whole foods Reflections on aging, purpose, and finding peace in daily life Glimpses of nature and home that speak to the quiet beauty around us Thoughts on how we might live in a way that supports each other — and the common good I’ve lived many seasons, and I’m still learning. This blog is a place for that: learning out loud, and sharing as I go. Thank you for being here. I hope something you find will nourish you, too — in body, mind, or spirit. With warmth, Janis
