30 days of learning, experimenting and resisting, but it is definitely worth it because what we’ve received was so much that we still haven’t understood all the vastness of it.

Besides good well-being there was bunch of smiles, laughter and  great mood. And it is not just vague words. We really became more tolerant, loving, open, happy and excited about life. Many worries left our minds and more confidence appeared in our hearts. We started to trust life more and it resulted in new great opportunities. Our well being increased and even though we haven’t yet cured our bodies completely, we had so much energy and aliveness as never before.

The biggest revelation for me was the discovery of importance of the food. For years I was searching for spiritual practices that will make me happy, vibrate and connected, and I failed. I haven’t succeeded because I haven’t paid enough attention to the basic things, I underestimated the  importance of nature’s program. But as the days of our challenge was passing I started to realize that years of spiritual search haven’t given me as much joy and enlightenment as those days of natural nourishment.

I have to admit that raw food alone won’t make you healthy, wealthy and wise, but you will definitely become more connected with yourself, more aware of the world around and more understanding of the universe.

I am a strong advocate of the trinity of body, mind and spirit.  I do believe that we have to care and develop all three simultaneously because if one is out of balance the rest can’t be in harmony. From my personal experience I found that there are a few basic things that we have to practice daily in order to keep growing: alive food, quality sleep, enough exercises, being in nature and sharing. Those are as necessary as brushing teeth and having breakfast because  ‘Healthy spirit is just in healthy body’ and no body can be healthy without loving soul and serene mind.

Whether our goal is healthy body or enlightened mind we have to remember that it is impossible to cheat the divine programme set in us. So please love yourselves, share this love with others, give the best and be sure that it will be paid off!

I got ‘Complete Book of [...]]]> Just 2 weeks passed and it seams like this was our lifestyle for months. I think I get used to good mood and energy, to smiling faces around and enthusiastic attitude. Looking for happiness in far far away I think people have to pay attention first on their plates .

I got ‘Complete Book of a Raw Food’ as a present and now more then ever excited to experiment with new receipts, and to my surprise I realized how easy and creative it can be.

My food patterns changes every day and every other day my body asks absolutely different foods and the beauty is that as summer goes fruits and vegetables rotates, so I have plenty of choice. I notices how my preferences change, and if before I was after gourmet dishes and complicated stuff now I started to enjoy more a plate of a few tomatoes with cashews.

But there is other challenge which seams bigger then I thought – eating late. And it seeams like all of us can’t overcome this habit, well guys are not trying to do it but for us, girls, it became real challenge – much more then raw food. The problem is that once we eat late we can’t go for sports, we don’t sleep well, and wake up tired and with heavy feeling, so the next day is not that great as it can be once u ’sore’ from the bed with uplifted mood.

Well, the summery of 2 weeks is: ‘FOOD DOES MATTER!’. So please fill your plates with God given blessings and enjoy life to the fullest, cause when your body is healthy, your mood is great, your soul is rejoicing and your mind is at peace you don’t need much, then just a silent walk with the dear person under the starry sky  becomes the biggest blessing.

Here we are: 4 best friends with various backgrounds but common drive for better life full of vital energy. Me myself (I will be called “Smiley” in this journey) and my friend Happy have always been passionate about health and inner growth. It is a continous exploration and learning how to improve and reach the state of feeling energetic and happy throughout the life. As we believe that we can live quality life not only in our 20s but also 40s, 50s, 60s and so on. This belief brought us to so much knowledge about different aspects of life which we share with you on our website, and raw foodism is one very important step towards it.

On one special day we decided to experiment and go raw for 30 days.

During this period of time we will write our feelings both positive and negative, new realizations and findings. Those interested in healthy living and raw foodism might find our experience interesting.

During 30 days we agreed to eat only RAW, which means veggies, fruits, nuts and seeds. Each of us has different background concerning style of living and eating habits. You might find your type in one of us:

Smiley: Has been mostly vegetarian with periodical changes for one year. Loved coffee with milk because of office work. Dairy products played a dominant role in a life. Kept exercising on a daily basis. Positive attitude to life with many goals to achieve. Always seeks knowledge about health and fitness. Always wanted to find a balance in her diet and never overeat which happened from time to time. Have to control herself with dates and nuts

Happy: Has changed her life dramatically in a sense of healthy living from being a meat lover to a vegetarian for two years and vegan for a year. Had periodical swings in overeating at one moment but continued with overall healthy living. Continuously improved eating habits. Enjoys smooth stretching and morning walks

It is a chance for each of us to achieve some of our aims in balancing and enriching our lives in one way or another.
