WOW! It's been a while since I've been on but life has been keeping me quite busy!! In a nutshell ....Went at the end of March to pick up mom in Regina Sask.,after she had multiple strokes! It was time for mom to move in ...it had been time for years but she is a very independant women and stayed on her own till she just couldn't! From the time I had called the ambulance for her to the time we went to pick her up had been 6 weeks! SIX WEEKS of the hospital ,extendacare and homecare pumping in dozens of pills into her poor system ! She remembers very little of the day we picked her up in Regina! Poor mom! So mom came to live with us well thats a stress that we adjust to not to big a deal,our home is 5 bedroom and all of our children are gone except for Melissa so that left us with 3 empty bedrooms ! Well before we left to pick mom up I decided to paint her room ,this simple paint job snowballed into installing hardwood and travertine tile in the upstairs!! My house was upside down when we brought mom home ,but the painting had gotten done before we left and the hardwood was being installed ! This was a juggle as I run a very busy daycare out of our home and mom was just getting settled in and my house was all in the kitchen ! WOW! Normally I would have been a basket case stressed to the max but this regime I had been studying for about 7 years now Marty and I decided to apply 6 weeks earlier,good thing! I was happy my messy house didnt even fizz me and Martin watched in amazement how stress free I was ....waiting for me to crack! It was then and there I think that he was sold on this great way of eating!
Its really quite a simple way of eating ,the basics are: 85 % raw and 15% cooked food.
This was my regime ,Marty's was a bit different as we had different routines and likes!!
First thing in the morning I take 2 tbsp very rounded of Barley Max in 4 oz of distilled water.
Mid morning when the kids are having breakfast I have 1 Glass of freshly juiced vegetable juice!
Lunch would be 1 rounded tbsp barleymax in distilled water and 20 minutes later a salad or veggie platter!
When it was snack time for the kids 3pm I have another veggie juice or carrot juice
Supper starts out with 1 tbsp barleymax in 4 oz of water and 20 minutes later a salad followed by something cooked whether it be cabbage rolls or baked sweet potato or some vegan lazagna!! That is my day in a nut shell!! Nothing complicated about it once its in place ,along with a few good tools in the kitchen and your set!! A juicer is important but it doesnt have to be an expensive one !! Our first juicer that healed Marty's lung was a Juiceman Juicer !! 100.00 now we use the Green Star elite but for many years we used a knockoff that just looked and ran like the Green Star!! Next a good blender is very useful for homemade soups and smoothies ect we use the Vitamix for a big blender but is expensive and any blender with do the same job when just starting out! I bought the Vitamix as it is very strong and can blend nuts to make nut milk fresh from raw soaked nuts its very tasty but I opt out most times to just buy my almond milk from the store!! Some day I will put it in my routine, just as the juicing has been implimented in!!:)
Stress is a big part of our life and our health! We need to slow down but it seems the more we need to slow down the faster life gets! what can we do? Well eating healthy is definitely a step in the right direction but its not enough!! Yes the diet above addresses detox and deficiency helping the body to heal and do its work and balancing hormones ,all this taking stress off the body but there is more much much more we can do to help with stress!! Oxygenating the body is a big one! How can we accomplish this daily? Aquiring enough Vit D , but how much is enough? Exercise and sunshine can definitely help with the 2 last questions!! Water now what kind of water should we drink? How much sleep should we get and why is it that important?We will address all these questions in great detail as there is alot we need to know about all these healthy elements to achieve a healthy happy stress free life! :))
