Wonderfully Made! Yes You:)


I have to admit it is tempting to freeze or panic when faced with a health challenge. I had tons of resources literally brought to me so I could research and learn God’s ways of health.   

God’s ways:

Pray first!   I need that reminder what about you? 
Days of creation in Genesis give answers to the best of healthy lifestyle as follows. 
  • Land 
  • Air
  • Water
  • Plants
Genesis 1:29.  
Genesis 2:9

World’s Ways
  • Processes food with preservatives 
  • Salt, white flour, sugar 
  • Treat the body as one part not a whole system 
  • Pharma 
I learned through my studies that health challenges can stem from nutrient deficiency, toxicity,  and or generational.  
In my own story even though food was a healer for my health challenge I had a natural health practitioner tell me there was something more like generational issue. For that I had to pray and behold My Heavenly Father the great physician answered.  Truly  I had to pray for weeks and ask for direction even how to proceed with pray and Him to heal. Then He had someone bring me another 15 books to read!

My overall gist of this article is yes we need the medical system but God made us and knows what we need to overcome.  He is so faithful to answer when we seek him.  Do seek Him if you are facing a health challenge.  The roots may be deeper that only God can reveal to you. 

           Have a blessed weekend and keep the faith.

Hydration Station


Do you find it difficult to drink water?   We hear drink 1-2 quarts of water daily.  Plain water really doesn’t have any taste, so why not make infused water with fruits and herbs!

After being on a recent health call I decided I need to get more water in daily.  Our bodies are approximately 70% water. I decided to make a pot of lemon water with a few drops of stevia and that’s my new go to.  

Benefits of homemade infused water:

  • Lower calories than sodas and calorie laden coffee drinks. 
  • Decreased sugar intake compared to other drinks. 
  • Spend time drinking water rather than snacking. 
  • A cleaner inside can reflect on glowing skin
Method
  • Choose fresh organic herbs and fruit 
  • Wash herbs and fruit 
  • Cut ingredients and add to a pitcher of water 
  • Let sit 2-3 hours for flavors to infuse 
  • Keep water cold 
  • Discard water after 24 hours or less. 
Combination ideas 
  • Orange 🍊 Blueberry, basil 🌿 
  • Lemon πŸ‹ cucumber πŸ₯’ mint 
  • Cucumber, lime, strawberry πŸ“ mint
  • Lemon πŸ‹ plain stevia in hot water. (Alternative to s cold drink). 
Try one this to help your hydration and see if you too can drink more water daily! 

Many blessings and keep the faith!

Daily Plant Foods of Life!


Since 2007 I started my journey with raw live food after having a skin cancer spot.  A colleague then shared about raw live foods along with 18 books and many appliances for me to practice with! 

I was fascinated with the many choices of healthy food in a plant based diet.  I went to become a health minister with Myhdiet and adopted many of their
principles in a healthy lifestyle.  

In a day I consume approximately 85% raw food and 15 % cooked. 

Foods to include  in a plant base raw live food lifestyle:

  • Fresh carrot and green juices 
  • Nutmilks and nut cheeses. 
  • Fruit ( Those with certain healthy challenges may need to eat less fruit)
  • Greens (rotate different greens daily)   
  • Spouted beans such as mung and lentil 
  • Herbal teas 
  • Grain-like foods such as quinoa, oats, and millet 

Foods to avoid: 

  • White flour 
  • White sugar 
  • Animal products 
  • White salt 
  • Alcohol and excessive caffeine 
Since I have been following this lifestyle I don’t want to go back to what is referred to as the Standard American Diet (SAD).  We have an amazing internal immune system which can change your life and those who want to learn and adopt this life giving lifestyle!
