My Raw Story
Everyone has a story, raw or not! I feel the need now to share my rawfood story. Watching a downloaded Avatar? made me think about the connection issue. The subject seems to pop everywhere. I feel now connected enough to talk about how I got into this raw train. I didn't imagine that I had (at any point) to moderate the comments. We live in a kind and hurtful world and that's what make, people like me have difficulties to share. stories. I am not into labels and I I grew up on the mediteranean way of eating, what they called few years back the mediteranean diet. no junk food and even the most heavy meals are quiet healthy.  EnlargeIn 2001 I moved to the Middle East to share my life with my best friend and husband. The family food gatherings in the Middle East are massive and I realised that how much those peeps eat, mediteraneans eat like birds if we have to compare them with orientals. In 2002 I was pregnant with my first boy, and both were voracious! being pregnant was the excuse to binge on oriental foods, explore junk food and discover new flavors and dishes. I never thought of my food choices before so I wasn't really the right timing for me to think this way. I was healthy and pregnant, so why care?! In 2003 I had my second boy...and another c-section. So, two pregnancies later, in two years, two c-sections later, breastfeeding, changing eating habits, moving countries..and the usual stress.left me drained at all levels.  2006 Feeling drained and depressed  2010 Everyone thinks they are twins ;-) I started to look for ways to get well. I started searching the web, I went back to the gym, discovered bodybalance/Taichi and was hooked. My trainer recommended Life force energy and the raw food detox diet. My outlook on the food as nourishment versus stuffing was finally bright clear to me. My eating habits started to change, with the occasional "falling of the wagon". I liked the simplistic approach of Natalia Rose, I joined online communities and I found lots of motivation to stay on track, to make better choices when it comes to nourishing the body. I discovered pranic healing and understood that whatever you nourish your body, you nourish your soul as well. I had to eat the foods for good mood... It was up to me to make the choice, I started craving salads over pizza and felt Ok but not so well. Something was wrong... Sometimes no matter what the decision you make, with all your free will. The divine power decides for you. I found myself sitting in the balcony crying because I was pregnant for the third time. I was so drained and couldn't believe what was waiting for me. I sat quietly in the balcony and decided that it was a gift and there were no reason to cry. I woke up the next day ecstatic, full of joy. I continued to eat plenty of raw foods, juicing everyday, walking, got into green smoothies,yoga, chakra healing., It became a passion... I blamed all my unwellness on the pregnancy.I thought I finally knew what was wrong. Something was wrong... while starting the pregnancy check ups, the result from my first gynecological check up came back with some bad results...I had CIN3, I was 4 months pregnant and had an emegency surgery to remove the bad cells. or the choice was to wait till I deliver with a 98% chance to have cancer any minute of the day or night. The emergency surgey went well for both of us. I kept having a high intake of raw and carried this hero of mine. He was born healthy in jan 2008 "I am not disciplined when it comes to do the necessary medical check ups. If I wasn't pregnant and had to do this tests as part of the pregnancy routine,I would have never gone to do them" Lesson learned: Do all the necessary tests on time or pray for a miracle to come save you.  2009 Hero of mine This is when the big questions started to flow in my head, I made it a promise to him to be healthy and look always for optimal wellness. A year after the delivery, I had a major vitamin D deficency, it took several visits to the doctors to discover the reason for my symptoms. We were living on the beach, sunbathing every week end!! walking under the sun every day!?! The theory was that my hero above took it all for himself!!? The same year, after constant pain, I landed on the colonoscopy table and disovered that I had a nervous colon, After that I got into Louise Hay holistic explanation of the physical symptoms. the colon pain would never come back, as long as I keep my eating simple with smart combinations. no stress or harsh spices. Lecons learned: Check your vitamin D, Take vitamin D, sunshine or not The colon is a thinking brain, take care of it ;-) I feel grateful today for all the people I have met, that led me to this path, without them I would have not made all this discoveries about the vibrational aspect of rawfoods and the healing powers of greens, fresh fruits and vegetables. I am still enjoying the ride and working my way up for a better health and wellness. Thank's for reading. xOxO  related searches : Raw
