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!

Stay blessed and encouraged in the Faith!

5 Tips When Feeling Overwhelmed


 I don’t know about you but when I’m feeling overwhelmed by life it’s difficult to have peace.  

When I had a health challenge I had so many different options that it was overwhelming for sure.  The medical system put the problem as a single unit.  There was a golf-size polyp to be removed by surgery and that was it.  

I had been studying the holistic way of health that past year.  In that realm polyp is not a single issue.   Why is it there?  Does the body need detoxed?  Is this caused by stress?  All of a sudden the body is looked at as a whole not a single part.  

I chose to do a whole body detox with wheatgrass juice, green smoothies and fermented food at a health center.. In five days my body shrunk the polyp without just cutting it out.  What a miraculous immune system we have!  The body can be self-healing when given the correct tools  

When feeling overwhelmed with so many choices and pressure by family, friends, the medical system and holistic health services implement these tips. 

1.  Seek God’s word about overwhelm. 

Ps 61:2 (NKJV) When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I   

Ps 142:3 

2.  Admit that you feel overwhelmed and do not deny your feelings. Talk to a trusted friend or counselor if you need help to identify your feelings  

3.  Seek God and wise council before making decisions. James 1:2-8

4.  If you are a person of faith seek God and be still.  God is not overwhelmed and will guide you when you ask for help.  “When my spirit was overwhelmed within me You knew my path...Psalm 142 

5.  Seek supportive friends etc who will support your decision especially if it is holistic.  Many do not understand looking at the body as a whole and getting to the root of the problem.  It is easier to cut a diseased part out but has the issue really been solved as to the cause?  Sometime the medical route may be best or a person will implement both.  

I’m thankful I made a decision that aided my whole body and I learned how to detox with living plant food way of life.

Is Your Fork Building Healthy Cells ?




 There was a time that I had no interest in learning about lifestyle and health. I thought I knew it all.  Then I was under tons of stress and my body felt tired and fatigued most of the time. A wellness colleague introduced me to a plant-based live food lifestyle. As I read and studied I realized what I was eating with my fork could make a major difference which it did!

Cell building foods 101!

1.  Live raw food has enzymes when not heated above 105 degrees assist in most cell function and digestion process  

2. Food such as fresh veg juices digest quickly and go straight to the cell to repair and rebuild   

3.  Raw fresh vegetables have many vitamins and minerals needed to build the cells  

4  Alkaline foods help balance the body whereas acid foods contributes to Dis-ease.

5.  Organic food is supposed to be without pesticides so obviously those foods will give less toxins for your body to handle   

As you put the life-giving foods at the end of your fork remember to remove the processed, sugary, acidic animal products.   

Since I had great heath challenge reverse with changing to a plant-based raw live food lifestyle I know firsthand and am grateful someone shared this info with me  

~~~A verse to inspire this journey of healthy eating:~~~

And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.  Genesis 1:29
