Easter Raw & Vegan Food Potluck Dinner

Catherine — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 20:34:10 +0000

It is that time of year when we all snuggle up with family and friends… and we would love to share that with you, especially if you are an “orphan” and have family far away. Or maybe it is just the two of you, and you would love to hang out with a few more to celebrate… or maybe you just need a break from you own family for a bit Or maybe, you are bringing your whole family… which is great!

We are having a raw,vegan and vegetarian EASTER POTLUCK DINNER with music and fun.

We would also love to try whatever wonderful and yummy vegetarian dish you consider your most favorite or special. If it is “Raw” that is great, but not necessary, as we are inviting friends and family who are not raw-fooders, and we want to have lots of delicious food. However we require all ingredients be organic (our bodies & environment are assaulted by countless toxins in the course of a day… lets not do that any more than we can help – Thank you!).

Bringing your favorite dish and please make sure that it is big enough to feed at least 8 people.  As usual, cutlery, plates, bowls, and cups are all provided.

Please bring your water bottles or other containers to fill-up with alkaline water for FREE! We have a Kangen System.

The dinner will start at 5pm, but we have the door open at 4pm ….. to gather together … to share some new recipes … to use my kitchen to prepare your meal or just …play with my dog Portia.

Jay’s performances have been presented throughout the United States in churches, healing centers, and yoga studios.

Check your score

If YOU’RE OLDER THAN YOUR YEARS

It’s not too late to do something about it – studies show taking up exercise or changing your diet even in your 40s and 50s can still make a difference to your longevity. Any changes you can make will help lower your body age. “The biggest differences will come if you focus on your diet, stress levels and fitness,” says David Niven Miller.

IF YOU’RE THE SAME AGE

Then chances are you’re feeling a bit miffed now. “Oddly this is the result that upsets people the most as everyone wants to be younger and you’re so close that you feel you’ve missed out,” says David. The good news is, you probably only need to change one habit to start the transition to a younger you. Have a look at which questions you scored worst on and make that where you focus your energies to start with.

IF YOU’RE YOUNGER THAN YOUR YEARS

Well done. “Either you consciously take good care of your body or you’re just one of those lucky people who naturally enjoys living a healthy life,” says David. Keep up what you’re doing, but still read our live-longer tips below – you might learn some new ways to boost your body’s longevity even further.

LOWER YOUR BODY AGE

1 Make friends: Simon Reynolds, author of Better Than Chocolate: 50 Proven Ways To Feel Happier (Penguin) suggests writing a list of 10 people whose company you enjoy and then actively trying to get them more involved in your life.

2 Improve your love life: Being close to others releases a hormone called oxytocin that not only decreases stress but also inhibits the growth of cancer cells. While any touch will boost oxytocin levels, orgasms send it soaring.

3 Think healthy: According to David Niven Miller, if you expect to live a long healthy life you will. This is down to a part of the brain called the reticulating activating system, which filters the thousands of things we see or hear. If you think health is important you’ll more likely notice cheap gym offers.

4 Boost your flexibility: The more bendy your body the less likely you’ll suffer problems like back ache that age your body. To boost flexibility try PNF (Proprioceptive Neural Facilitation). It involves stretching the muscle and, while it’s stretched, tensing it for 10-20 seconds. Then relax and stretch again – you’ll always be able to go further on the next stretch.

5 Watch your weight: If you’re overweight, every pound you lose adds 36 days to your life. The easiest way to do it? Eat around 1,400 calories a day and do a 20- minute walk – you’ll drop a pound each week.

6 Cut down on booze: Binge drinking ages your body as alcohol damages healthy cells, so keeping to sensible levels of 2-3 units a day is important.

7 Boost your energy: Low energy is a sign of blood sugar imbalances that can raise your risk of heart disease and diabetes. Cinnamon helps balance things – add a pinch to your morning cereal.

8 Look after your teeth: The bacteria that causes gum disease and tooth decay is also linked to some cancers, heart disease and stroke. Brushing and flossing are vital here. Drinking green tea helps fight plaque bacteria too.

9 Learn to cook: Processed foods are high in nasties that can age your body – salt alone has been said to cut your lifespan by seven years.

10 Quit smoking: Smoking ages your body inside and out – so quit.

The Energy targets the problem wherever it exists and works on all levels, mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual. Some will release deep-seated emotional and physical trauma; others’ bones will realign, some have chronic back/neck pain and/or scoliosis, which totally disappears; still others will release toxins and poisons from their system; others will have a Divine spiritual awakening, others are energized, some will let go of non-desirable habits, some increase healing abilities, and still others will gain a totally new outlook on life. There are several benefits from doing the CCMBA and CCSMC often. Each time you experience the CCMBA and CCSMC you will work on something different and you will experience something different, often on higher, deeper, more profound levels.

#2 The Delightful ANCIENT BLACK PEARL TECHNIQUE

is hard to describe. Words don’t do it justice. It releases deep-seated traumas and stress from the amygdala, the neurovascular, sympathetic and parasympathic systems.

It is guaranteed to be something that you will delightfully take home to use on loved ones
