When eating Raw Foods and fresh pressed juices healed my tumor, I wanted to shout, share, tell the world, hire a marching band, maybe a few well placed banners, that said, Raw Food Heal.
If you are on a journey of diet change with Vegan Raw Foods, you’re going to feel better, look better, have more energy, be excited. Your going to want to tell friends and family about the foods your eating, about all the positive change your experiencing. It’s only natural. We’re social beings. We’ve learned from one another since the beginning of time.
Going Easy On Family
Yet right now, with so many people in trouble from eating the Standard American Diet, there is a lot of guilt, shame and confusion floating around. This confusion has people defensive. No one wants to feel attacked by the people they are close to. And of course we don’t want to make people we care about feel uncomfortable. Because part of the ‘New Food Movement’ is helping us connect with ourselves, experience less guilt when we eat, learn new methods of self care and self love.
Get Creative
So, how do you share your exciting new life with friends, family and co-workers without going into ‘fix-it’ mode? With imagination, creativity, flexibility. The Raw Food Lifestyle has had twenty years to evolve out of oranges, bananas, and lentil loaf. The foods are fun, inventive, exciting and delicious. My suggestion is to learn to make a few ‘WOW’ foods that put a smile on the faces of your loved ones. Here are a few of of the winners that have worked for me, because I have no intentions of eating alone.
