My conscious path started when I became a vegetarian at age twelve because of my love for animals, I didn't want to hurt them and it was apparent to me that they had to be harmed to get that bite full of lunch I had in my mouth. Yet I ate yogurt, milk and cheese almost every day as I was completely unaware of the atrocities of dairy at that point. At nineteen I became a vegan instantly when I saw my first video of the reality behind the scenes in meat and dairy farms, slaughterhouses and fur factories. I cried for an hour and a half non-stop - bawled my eyes out at the reality that people can be so cruel and inhumane. Not a drop of dairy has passed my lips since. It went from something I "loved" to something that completely disgusted me. Veal is a by product of the dairy industry; pretty disgusting. I used to think milk was doing my body good and was something I needed for my health; as I grew to learn more about health I realized that nothing could be further from the truth. I became vegetarian and then vegan because I wanted to leave a gentle wake on this earth and I empathized with other creature's pain and suffering - the health benefits were a side effect for me, nice bonus! Over the years I've learned a bit about the many health benefits of a plant based diet and lifestyle and have continued on a path of optimizing my health (not always an effortless journey especially coming from a bulimic and suicidal at times background).
Over the past 10 years I have experimented, on and off, with a raw vegan living foods diet. While eating only living foods for long periods of time, I have experienced deep cleanses and actually passed a hard grey rope like thing from my intestines - probably all that meat, cheese and dairy I ate when I as younger. When I eat 100% raw vegan, a shift occurs within me. I have more energy, life, and vitality. My thoughts are clearer and my mood is a stable happiness. My insides work smoothly and I am more aware of what's going on inside me. I feel more deeply connected to the earth and all living things.
I have gotten to a point in my life where it seems all my problems have disappeared, emotionally and physically, (or maybe it's that I have a reverence for what they bring to my life which makes them no longer problems, but beautiful challenges). A shift has occurred in me from being troubled myself to wanting to help the troubles of the world - our earth. The terrible things that are happening in the world stir me to do something and therefore I have more hope than I ever have had before. I have so much energy, I just want to help heaven flourish on earth and spread as much joy as I can; be as big of a ripple of hope and love and life that I can be. The earth needs our help. She tells us that paradise & heaven have been here all along; it is a perspective we choose to look from. As we clean up our insides we clear our vision and the world gets brighter. There is so much abundance in the universe - all of us can do what our hearts desire and thrive! All our dreams can come true, better than we expect them to! The journey into health is a journey into nature, the cleanest, purest air we can breathe, water we can drink, food we can eat, is out in nature, away from chemical substances and man made things. When we are out in nature we are shown a mirror of who we really are - a part of the ever renewing divine creation. We are supported unconditionally by the foundation of the earth at all times regardless of who we are or how much we have chosen to disconnect from her; she wants so much to nurture us into the health that is our birthright.
Science is coming to the realization that the closer you can get to eating fruit right off the trees, and herbs & veggies still attached to the mother in the ground, the highest density of nutrients they will have. Low calorie, nutrient rich foods with fiber and all the good stuff you need for optimum health are fruits and veggies, herbs, nuts and seeds from the earth grown naturally without the use of pesticides and herbicides. It is so exciting to eat this way, to have a relationship with the earth and the trees that offer me abundance - it's thrilling! I am so passionate about preparing divine earth food with god/nature as my co-chef and doctor. I feel so good about the health benefits of natural organic food and prepare each meal with love in my heart and a big smile on my face because I truly believe that it is the healthiest most life promoting food I can offer to others; I want to share it with everyone. There is so much abundance in the world!
My wish is for each and every one of you to experience the thrill and ecstacy of life on a daily basis and to be inspired to live in your ultimate dream. I believe as we all start living our ultimate dreams, heaven will at last unfold unto the earth and paradise will abound. We will be doing what we are truly inspired to do and not what others are paying us to do and we will find that there really was an amazing abundance here all along.
Let me know how I can be of service to you as you transition into your abundant reality.
Many Blessings With Much Aloha,
Brook
