I am reading The UNCook Book by Elizabeth and Elton Baker (no kidding! That’s really their names!) and also Raw Food for Real People by Rod Rotondi. If you don’t know this raw foods are used by the body so you eat and want much less and you feel great after eating them (not lethargic or down).

Though I cannot eat grain like wheat flour, I can eat raw grains. And I feel wonderful when I do (lots of vitamin B and enzymes!).  So here is how I am now making “bread.”

I have soaked barley, wheatgrass and sunflower seeds, (I just laid them out on plates and let them soak in water.) Soaking activates the enzymes, which is why this is so good for your body. Rise off cloudy water once a day. When they are starting to sprout grind them in a food processor (or with a rock on a wooden board, which is much harder…)

Mix into the grain paste any tastes you want like you can add dates, or raisins for some sweetness (this is what I am currently attempting)

Now for the “cooking”.  You want to warm it to harden it without destroying enzymes that are destroyed in cooking.  If you accidentally kill some, really don’t worry about it.).

“Cooking” Raw Foods

This is the part that I am working on perfecting right now.

You can put it in the oven on very low heat (350 does NOT work.) I am trying 175 degrees.

You can bake it in the sun. (Haven’t tried this yet due to weather issues. And I am in LA!!)

Considering I only manage to realize I should be doing this at night, or its raining or its freezing I have decided to attempt to cook them on a very low heat.

I am attempting this tonight.

The key is not to forget about them (which is a real issue for me).

So the trick is to pay attention!  This can also be good for your mental health.

Tune in to find out how it all shakes down in upcoming post – -God, I hope I can do this!!

Combine the grains with almond flour (raw almonds ground into a flourlike powder) to get a smoother consistency.  You don’t have to use this, but I personally have yet to perfect my recipe without two tablespoons of almond flour (maybe amounts to about 4-5 almonds since it is so finely ground)

Here’s what I’m working on.

The key is not to get on the phone and forget you.

Richard Sudworth, BDS, LDS, RCS, (Eng) – a dental surgeon considered dental uses of aloe vera and found there were numerous opportunities to utilize aloe vera products in general dental treatment which he published in Positive Health Magazine in 1997.

“There are many potential applications for aloe vera in dentistry. It is extremely useful in the treatment of gum disease – gingivitis and peritonitis.  It reduces swelling of the soft tissues and consequently this reduces the bleeding of the gums.  It is powerfully antiseptic in gum pockets where normal cleaning is difficult, and its antifungal properties help considerably in treating Denture stomatitis, i.e. red and sore mucous membranes that are permanently covered by a denture. This is a form of thrush, against which aloe vera is very effective.

“Cracked and split corners of the mouth are also subject to fungal infection, and this can be [soothed] by using a topical aloe vera product. Its anti-viral properties help in the treatment of cold sores…”

This beautiful poem by Pablo Neruda is so beautiful-it brings life and passion to our everyday experience of deep, abiding love.  Reflecting on our relationships and appreciating our loved ones is what makes us feel fulfilled in life.  To me this poem comes as close as one can in a work of art, to expressing the nature of passionate eternalness of love between two – who, by that love, become one.  I would love to hear your feelings about this poem.

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,

or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,

in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms

but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;

thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,

risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;

so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Poetry can remind us to listen to the feelings of our heart and to take a moment to breathe and simply appreciate our experience.

Extremely dry skin, eczema and even cradle cap is not uncommon with newborns and babies. Since the cause of the skin conditions is unknown, doctors don’t usually prescribe a remedy.

Many mothers have found that the unique combination of natural ingredients in InfiniteAloe(r) Skin Care helps to soothe a baby’s skin challenges.

One young mother was lucky because a friend gave her a sample of InfiniteAloe Skin Care. The mother followed the advice on how to use the cream (see www.infinitealoe.com).  After four days the dryness and red spots disappeared.

“You ask me what were the secret forces which sustained me during my long fasts. Well, it was my unshakable faith in God, my simple and frugal lifestyle and the Aloe whose benefits I discovered upon my arrival in South Africa at the end of the nineteenth century”

- Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma means “great soul,” and no title could be truer than for this man, Gandhi, who led his people in peaceful resistance to British rule in the early 20^th century.  He lived his beliefs: the principle of satyagraha, which means “the way of truth” by leading Indians in non-violent acts of civil disobedience. He also protested with long and public fasts that drew international attention to the injustice and tyranny of the British rule in India at that time.

The depth of Gandhi’s faith gave him such courage.  A very eloquent man, his words such as these, have the power to shape and better our lives and our contribution of service in the world:

Quotes from Mahatma Gandhi

“A coward is incapable of exhibiting love, it is the prerogative of the brave.”

“Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and all will be well.”

“A man is but the product of his thoughts. And what he thinks, he becomes.”

“A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith can alter the course of history.”

“Be the change you want to see in the world”

Gandhi’s life is an inspiration and recorded in many biographical books and movies. He stands among the most revered and influential people in history. Albert Einstein spoke in tribute to Gandhi: “Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this walked the earth in flesh and blood.”

“DETOXIFYING AGENT: When taken orally as a drink, aloe vera acts as a gentle cleanser and detoxifier (provided only the gel and not the aloin under the leaf rind is used), working throughout the digestive system and penetrating the skin tissue. It flushes out the dead skin cells, helps regenerate new cell growth and promotes healthier tissue, thus accelerating the healing of wounds, lesions and ulcers.  It will also have this effect when applied externally to broken skin.” – Excerpted from Chapter 2 of Aloe Vera – The True Aloe, of the book: Aloe Vera, Nature’s Legendary Healer by Alasdair Barcroft

“Professor Winters, of the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, believes that aloe is truly a ‘pharmacy in a plant’ because of its numerous healing abilities.

“There is a wide range of aloe components that have been widely recognized and investigated that have definite pharmacologic-like effects, thus generally confirming the folk medicine uses of aloe Vera which are and can be truly valuable to us.”

“The first-ever extensive clinical tests using aloe Vera to treat third degree radiation burns on white rats were conducted by Professor Tom Rowe of the Medical College of Virginia.… His studies showed that regardless of the condition of the leaves of the plant, aloe Vera was effective. Rowe also discovered that although the healing agent in aloe Vera is concentrated in the rind, it is also present in the gel.

“In 1959, the Atomic Energy Commission (now the Nuclear Regulatory Commission) funded a study to produce an aloe Vera ointment and test its effectiveness in treating radiation burns. The test results showed aloe Vera speeded up the healing time of ulcers caused by X rays and reduced the formation of scar tissue. Since then, similar results in treating serious burns and leg ulcers have been shown in studies conducted in United States and other countries.” Excerpted from Aloe Vera: Nature’s Soothing Healer by Diane Gage
