Life Force Lesson #2: Rediscover The Life Cycle

Do you remember learning about the life cycle in grade school? Perhaps you were shown a circular diagram of a frog at its various stages of development. Or perhaps it was a seed sprouting roots, then sprouting stalks and leaves, then flowering, and then seeding again. Well, in the interest of expanding your worldview and coming to understand every aspect of your individual life in the context of all life, it’s time to get back to the basics of biology.

Life Is Change

Perhaps the greatest lesson to be learned from the life cycle is that all organisms are in a constant state ...

Ana’s Lazy Girl Food Tip: Easy Taco Salad

Salad to Go!

For a refreshing salad to take to work, to school, or to smuggle into a movie theater, look no farther than the produce section at your local supermarket. And I don’t mean piles of vegetables that take time to chop, peel, and grate (although we do love to prep with passion when we have the time). Most markets now carry fresh and delicious guacamole, pico de gallo, or salsa, and Belgian endive. Simply pile these dips onto organic greens, soak with fresh lemon juice (and a couple drops of Stevia, which you have stashed away in your purse ...

Testimonial from Elaina

Dear Natalia,

I will start with thank you. A friend suggested your book. After several attempts to get me to read your book, I finally took a look and purchased “Raw Food Life Force Energy” and then another. It has changed my life. I had been overweight most of my live and planned on having the lap-band. Luckily, I was not a candidate and the docs recommended gastric by-pass. I knew I would not have that procedure. But I say luckily because I then knew that I would have to make the change from within and not depend upon a crutch. ...

Glossary Term: Human Food

Human food: This might seem like an obvious term. Not so! People tend to assume that whatever is sold as food is human food. In fact, truly human food is a much shorter list. Food that is truly human implies that we would consume it, seamlessly assimilate and conduct its nutrients and then fully eliminate what remains through our bowel, skin and other eliminative organs. The foods that fit that bill are raw fruits and vegetables and their juices, raw young coconuts and mother’s milk when we are babies.

There are many other foods outside this category that we can consume and ...

Natalia-ism on Interconnectedness
