Free Raw Food Goodies Galore :)

OoOOooo, tomorrow evening (Jan 8th), Mr. M is going to be holding a special live teleconference call on the ‘Intermediate Diet’. This plan involves eating healthy whole foods – both cooked and raw – and has been used by Dr. Fred Bisci for decades, to help people to heal. It is GREAT for people who do not want to go 100% raw (or struggle with staying 100% raw), yet would like to feel healthy, balanced and energetic.
This is the plan that the Monarch’s very own mother, Joan, has been following for the last couple of years, during which time she has released I believe around 30 extra pounds and become ever–more radiant and youthful looking. If you didn’t see Matt’s little interview with his mum yet on our TV show, you can see that HERE.
So, Mr. M wanted to share more in–depth, step–by–step details on how to successfully work with this Intermediate Diet and he’ll be speaking about this tomorrow (Thursday Jan 8th) from 6pm Pacific Time. His intention with this call is to speak for 1–2 hours on this subject, then to answer ALL caller Qs, up until midnight Pacific Time, if necessary ;)
You can see all the details for this special event and sign up HERE.

MORE FReEeeEeeEeeEeeeee Inspiring Resources...
OooOOoo, how blessed we are...the internet uber–info–bubble is such a wealth of yummmm...here are even more delightful free picks that we’d love to currently highlight with flourescent pens:

*Health Book Summaries recently posted up a summary of the raw food classic ‘The Sunfood Diet Success System’ by Mr. Avocado himself. FUN :) Now, that is a HUGE book – I’m not sure I’ve ever read the whole thing in fact, so this is a welcome blessing, to have this uber–volume summarised into a handy little PDF...you can create your own free HealthBookSummaries account HERE if you’re not already signed up and download the ‘skinny’ on this and many other inspiring health book titles...

*That Mr. McCabe has done it again: after bringing us his ever–fabulous free worldwide raw resources list HERE, he has now gone on to publish an ENTIRE free book about hemp, online. WOW, thanks John :) It seems he put literally years of research into the 'Hemp Now' book, then generously decided to give it away for free on t’intinet...you can access this book HERE, learning, for example why the US is currently the biggest importer of hemp in the world, yet hemp is illegal to grow in the US...and the implications this has in terms of economics, ecology, politics and more...

*That other crazy raw–friendly philanthropist, Mr. Brian Johnson over at PhilosophersNotes.com is still giggling like a mad scientist as his ‘freebie giveaway counter’ races ever–upwards... Well over 10,000 free accounts have now been claimed already on the site...and there’s still time to claim YOURS, if you haven’t already...get access to the top 25 files on inspiring books like ‘The 4–Hour Work Week’, ‘Ask and It Is Given’ and others... Click HERE to get your FREE account...


Freely, truly, openly, willingly, simply, decidedly...with you,

Validating Your Divine Self... ;)

OOooOooooo, ladies and gentlemen, it’s that time again...raw food, detox and fitness plans seem to be kicking off all over the shot right now...there are many many different plans to follow – maybe you’d like to RawFu away any Holiday excesses with the lovely Bunny Berry's assistance, for example?

Or maybe you’ll be a Raw Diva with their new 7-day plan?

Jinjee and Storm have years of experience to share of course too, on a different 7-day plan HERE...

...or if you REALLY wanna go for it, then the first Global Juice Feast of this year just kicked off yesterday (Jan 3rd) and will run until Jan 31st. You can flow into that yumminess with the beautylicious Rainosheks HERE.
I'm sure there's plenty of other yummy detox plans kicking off too - maybe even some in your local area...???

Now, as for EXERCISE, as many people know, those lovely Boutenkos did a huge trek along the Pacific Coast Trail when they first went raw...if you’d like to follow a little in their footsteps (virtually at least ;) HERE is a cool site that was sent in by one reader - Steve - where you can ‘walk the Oregon Coast’ virtually ;) lol – love it...you keep track of your biking/walking/exercising in your local area, then record it on the site, making simultaneous ‘virtual’ progress along the Oregon Coast track – nice motivational tool...you can also go on a walking tour of Italy on the same site if you prefer... You just enter the promo code ‘InStep2008’ to join in for free, apparently...
ENJOY :)

on January the 2nd I had:

4 quarts water
1 apple


on January the 3rd I had:

2 quarts water
mug of pau d’arco tea
40 chlorella ‘nuts’
double wheatgrass shot with ginger and lime juice
an apple with 3 tbsp Sproutein powder
1 quart water
1.5 cups energy soup with a flax cracker, followed by 2 tbsp goji berry powder
little mug of rooibus tea
2 cups water

Hmmmm, so, as for me, I haven’t been eating much the last few days, as you might have noticed. No, this is no intentional ‘detox’ plan... ;) The journey back from Mexico was simply pretty INTENSE – over 28 hours in transit in the end...and I seem to find that my appetite goes away after journeys like that...I sense it’s a combination of jet–lag, out–of–bodyness, sleep deprivation, messed up circadian rhythms, feeling puffed–up from planes, body wanting a break from digestion so that it can heal as fast as possible and so on...well, the result is: no interest in food, or at least very minimal…which is fine – interesting to observe...and I‘m grateful to feel more–or–less back in this body now, slowly grounding back down with some more foods, especially some healthy fats as it’s COLD here in the UK – eeeeeeeeeeek...who turned the heaters off while I was away...? lol ;)


on January the 4th I had:

1 quart water
little cup of rooibus tea
3 cups grrreeeeen juice: celery, cucumber, fennel, Jerusalem artichoke, ginger, lime

gorgeous little bowl of grawnola with carob/lucuma/macadamia nut ‘mylk’ – WOW :)
little mug of rooibus tea
2 cups water

Mmmmmmm, I wanted to share a really sweet short film with you today that was sent in by another reader – Shane. It’s called ‘Validation’, is abt 16 mins long, very heart–warming and has won a whole mantelpiece of awards already ;). You can watch it HERE:


SMILE :)

Into the New...

Happy 2009, beautiful people.
I hope you had a FANTASTIC launch into this delightful new year...we certainly had an eventful last day of the year, between packing up to leave Mexico, doing a lot of filming for projects, dealing with dog traumas, listening in to the prize announcements for the ‘Best of Raw 2008’ awards and ‘accidentally’ doing a live 2–hour online broadcast with the Monarch and the Giannis, it was a bit of a packed day and I ended up having about 2 hours sleep last night...
Well, we had a lot of fun though, especially during the live broadcast – thanks to all of you who came out to join in – it was so fun to play games, discuss goals/resolutions for the new year, do prize giveaways and so on... :)
MY resolution was to sing more and we got straight on it, with Mr. Gianni on guitar and all of us warbling along with some of our favourite tooooons. (If you missed this gathering, I believe you can view it HERE, although I believe the first 20 minutes or so accidentally didn’t get recorded. My favourite part starts around 1h 10mins into it, when we sing 'My Life' by The Beatles ;)

on December the 31st I had:

1 quart water
2 cups green juice: celery, cucumber, lettuces, radish, dandelion, lime, ginger
20 chlorella ‘nuts’
2 cups energy soup with kale chips, followed by a chunk of raw coconut ice cream
3 cups water
2 cups green juice: celery, cucumber, lettuces, radish, dandelion, lime, ginger
1.5 cups energy soup with kale chips, followed by a hand–made yumpot of hemp butter, carob powder, lucuma powder, stevia, cinnamon, maca, vanilla powders, water
mug of herbal tea
water of a young coconut
2 cups water

Mmmmmm, I’m excited to let you know that yesterday we also finally recorded a little video demo of how to make energy soup – which has been posted to RenegadeHealth.com – I know a LOT of you have been interested to see smthg along those lines, so you can check that out HERE if that would please you... ;)

Or perhaps you’d enjoy seeing Matt’s adventure at a San Diego Farmer’s Market, where he stumbled upon Julie and her ‘Born this Morn’ green smoothie company. Julie makes green smoothies and sells them at local markets – GREAT job, Julie :) – she also has plans to take them into schools and businesses – you can see that video HERE.

If you’d also like to meet our PUPPIES, there is a very sweet little video of them just posted to RenegadeHealth HERE. Mr. M has them with him back in the US now and we just keep on sending them love and love and love...


on January the 1st I had:

2 quarts water
20 chlorella ‘nuts’ and 2 tbsp Sproutein powder
lettuce wraps stuffed with avocado, cucumber, kelp/cayenne powder and shredded kale, followed by some freeze–dried jackfruit – yum ;)
3 cups water
2 tbsp greeeeeen powder
little bowl of raw cereal with macadamia ‘mylk’
1 quart water

I’m writing this post from Mexico City airport, amidst an epic 24 hour journey back to the UK...eeeeeeeeeek ;) It has been SUCH a blessing for Mr. M and I to be able to pass this last month in Mexico together (well, together about half the time anyway, as he came and went from the US)...Now it’s time to shimmy on back to Blighty though and visit those nice people at the American Embassy to see what happens next with my Fiancee Visa...we’re sincerely hoping to see the end of this process very soon...any bright blessings sent in the direction of that vision will be most gratefully received ;)
(P.S. a woman just gave a very sweet announcement over the loud speaker here at the airport in Mexico, in broken English that 'you will arrive at your destiny on time'...what a beautiful 'slip', I'll take that as a good sign ;)

See you on the other side ;)
Happy New Year galavantings to ye all...
One love,
Angelelelelalalalalallaalaaaaaaaaa. xxx

Crossing the Boundaries of Time...

Mmmmmm, the end of another year, eh? Thank you, sweet people, for all your jolly interactions this year...it’s been a wonderful journey, as ever…
I will say though that it feels nothing like New Year’s Eve to me here in Mexico ;) LOL...not quite sure why...I suspect it has smthg to do with time seeming to speed up constantly – it could just as easily be May or June to me...the end of December already? Well, ok, if you like... ;) I seem to have passed another year without living in any one place for more than a few months again...I would guestimate the number of places I stayed this year as at least 80 or so...HOPEFULLY all that will shift soon though, as and when our US Visa process moves along...breathing deeeeeeeeeeep for that ;)
As for New Years Eve, well, we have the honour of having the delightful Mr and Mrs Gianni over to visit for this auspicious occasion, so I’m sure we’ll have some fun footage to share with you soon ;) You can catch up with recent episodes of TheRawFoodWorld TV Show HERE on Mr. M’s blog...yesterday we went to visit the five–star, raw food healing hospital Sanoviv here in Mexico and...they didn’t seem very excited to see us – was it the shoes, was it the hair? ;) Hmmmm, you can find out more HERE ;)

on December the 29th I had:

1 quart water
2 cups greeeeen juice: tatsoi, lettuces, dandelion, spinach, kale, lime

3 tbsp Sproutein powder
2 cups energy soup with kale chips on the side, followed by a hand–blended yumpot of hemp butter, lucuma powder, carob powder, maca, cinnamon, vanilla, stevia, water

Tomorrow (31st) is the last day to vote in the ‘Best of Raw 2008’ Awards – have you cast your votes yet? If not, you can boogie on over to bestofraw.net and vote NOW – the winners will be announced live on the Raw Inspirations radio show from 7pm tomorrow evening – New Year’s Eve – a fun way to celebrate the changing of the years, with the raw family tribe ;)
You can only vote from any computer once, SO, if you haven’t submitted your choices yet, go for it HERE and enjoy :)


on December the 30th I had:

Puppy Update: thanks again for ALL the amazing guidance, love and suggestions people have been sending in about feeding/raising our rescued puppies raw. (If you don’t know about our new canine companions, you can see more about them HERE.)
Today my heart sang as Sandy, the mumma dog wagged her tail for the very first time since she came to us. :) :) :) ahhhhhh, SO beautiful to see. Imagine being around a child who you’ve never seen laugh or even smile and then they suddenly grin ;) It was so delightful and I’m so grateful to see her getting stronger each day, slowly slowly. Please do keep sending them all love, light and healing thoughts if you feel drawn to do so – it makes all the difference...
As for us humans, well, I’d like to sign off here below with a sweet little stanza that I first posted on my blog way back on New Year’s Eve 2006. I like it. I hope you do too...and moreover, I hope you have a WONDERFUL New Year, of joy, enriching connections, love, happiness, surrender to the flow, dancing, squeaking randomly and hugging spontaneously...
May all blessings be yours.
All love,
Angela. xxx

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light;
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.
--Alfred, Lord Tennyson

There were two ‘mainstream’ news reports about food that interested me recently...

The first is about a Federal Judge in the US who is eating raw now, because he has cancer – GREAT to know he’s on such a healing path :) You can read all about his experiences HERE.

The other story that caught my eye…well, this one was over on NaturalNews.com actually, so not really THAT ‘mainstream’ at all ;) LOL – it is masquerading in that vein though and doing a pretty uncanny job of it, in my opinion...treat yourself to a giggle over HERE, where you can learn more about wearable feed–bags for humans... ;)

One love,
Angelalalalaaaaaa. xxx

Christmas 'Tails'...

Mmmmm, hello...did you have a delightful Dec. 25th? I hope so...we did.

Mr. M has been having a lot of fun piecing the shows together and there is even a dedicated YouTube channel for them all now – see: YouTube.com/TheRawFoodWorld – fun :) Many more to come...

In case you’re in a raw recipe ‘tizzy’ at this time of year, I thought I’d mention that I dropped by ‘GoneRaw.com’ recently and it’s looking GOOD over there...nice presentation and TONS of searchable recipes...anyone can join and contribute...I think it’s really cool that you can enter any ingredient/search term and it will pop up all relevant recipes for you... You can check out that site HERE if you’re not already familiar with it...
I’m actually intending to make some kind of ‘key lime pie/cheesecake/smthg’ sometime soon, utilising some of the MASS of coconut meat and limes we have here...will be aiming for low glycemic though and no cashews ;) If anyone has any recommendations they’d love to offer, then again, please just email angela@rawreform.com and let us know ;)

Oh my GOODNESS, on the subject of cleansing – Ms. Suki Zoe, colon hydrotherapist and health renegade ext–raw–dinaire has just posted an amazing set of live blood cell analysis pics to her blog. She did a comparison of her blood after having veggie juice compared to after having cacao powder and agave. WOW...I highly recommend taking a look at those pics for the sheer ‘WOH’ factor... ;) AMAZING contrast...You can check out this juicy lady’s pics HERE...and perhaps use that as inspiration to get your liquids on, lovelies ;) Thanks for sharing, Suki...

All blessings and yumminess,

Do They Know About Raw Food?

Helllooooooooooo beautiful,
A short burst of connection today to relay...
I made a little raw food song for Christmas. You can see it here if you like and the lyrics are down below:


Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Feliz Navidad and all best wishes to you for a supreme...Thursday... ;)
All love,

Do They Know About Raw Food?

It's Christmas time,
There's no need to be afraid.
At Christmas time you can still eat raw and celebrate.
Yes in a world of cooked food
We can spread a healthy glow
Take raw gojis and desserts wherever you go
But say a prayer,
Pray for the other ones.
At Christmas time, it's hard
To see the foods they munch...
But there's a world beyond that fridge door
And it's a world of love and health
Where the raw community gather to uplift you and to help
When everyone around you seems to be high on processed foods,
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you ;)
And there won't be greens on many plates this Christmas time.
The most nutritious thing they'll eat is fruit pie.
Oooooohhhhh, where no sprouts ever grow,
And no smoothies or juices flow...

DO they know about raw food at all?
Feed the World,
Let them know about raw food and
Feed the World,
Let them know about raw food
Feed the World
Let them know about RAW FOOD...

Introducing: TheRawFoodWorld.TV

Alright, get ready for some raw ENTERTAINMENT ;)
The Monarch and I have decided to start sharing a lot more videos of our raw adventures, in response to numerous requests...so, may we introduce: TheRawFoodWorld.TV ;)

Mr. M's inner director has been set loose and for the last few days he's been filming and posting clips up in California.
*HERE is a little vid with his mum. LOVE it - hilarious. I watched it at lunch and laughed so much I accidentally sprayed the kale chips I was eating all over my 'puter ;) You can see that video HERE.

*Mr. M also posted an interview today with another Mr. Monarch - his brother, Brian. Very funny too - and I LOVE, love, LOVE that the question 'if you know refined sugars and processed starches are not great for you, why do you still eat them?' was asked and answered. That is smthg that fascinates me about people. You can see that video HERE.

*Meanwhile, over at the RenegadeHealth.com blog, Kevin recently posted a video tour of TheRawFoodWorld.com shipping warehouse in California - so COOL to see...yes, I've never actually even seen our warehouse, as I've been out of the US for sooo long now (hopefully that will all shift soon - please send love towards that vision, if you feel drawn ;). You can see the warehouse tour video HERE.

PHEW...that oughta give you smthg more entertaining to watch than the usual Christmas TV choices ;) ENJOY...

on December the 19th I had:

1 quart water
water of 2 young coconuts, 2 tbsp sproutein powder
2 cups energy soup with kale chips and snap peas on the side, followed by a bowl of hand–blended yum: almond butter, maca, lucuma powder, carob powder, goji berries
little mug of spicy tea
3 cups water
3 cups veggie juice: celery, parsley, dandelion, fennel, carrots with greens, ginger
2 cups energy soup with kale chips and okra on the side, followed by a bowl of hand–blended yum: almond butter, maca, lucuma powder, carob powder, goji berries
2 cups water

I am caretaking/rehabilitating 2 tiny, month–old puppies and their mum ‘Sandy’ at the moment. They could use a LOT of love right now. They’ve been with me a few days now and I wasn’t actually sure they’d make it through the night last night – I’m relieved that they’re still here today though and they seem to be getting stronger... It seems to have been rather a rough ride for them all so far in this dimension – we’re doing our best to help them to heal now though. If you feel drawn to send love, light and healing towards these three beautiful young canine friends, please do...yesterday was the toughest day so far with them and I sensed there was about a 60% chance they’d make it through the night. Amidst this somewhat bleak situation, a song came onto my iTunes to remind me with sweet lyrics that ‘the greatest gift of life is to know love’...and so that’s the main thing we’re channeling to these little beings right now – love, love, LOVE and more LOVE...and I sense they’re really feeling it...they seem to be getting stronger...and I am so grateful for that. So, please do add your love and blessings for their health and well–being into the Universal Flow, if you are drawn...it will be much appreciated...
Thank you.
