Saying Yes to Freedom

Hi -

Some folks are mentally and spiritually:

- on life support.

- on "junk food" diets.

- semi-conscious.

- largely unconscious

- comatose.

- dead on arrival -- DOA . . .

There is hope, though -- more folks are coming up out of "graves, . . ." and learning how to TRULY live FREE.

Waking Up to More Awareness

Hi -

- Many people are existing on recycled, repetitive, insufficient and often deceptive information.

- Many people are dumbed down and have become "comfortable" in states of ignorance. We all have areas of ignorance -- key is to be receptive to becoming better informed . . .

- Many folks have poor diets and don't consume enough brain foods.

- Many folks are afraid of change.

- Many folks have become prisoners of their perceptions.

- Many folks aren't TRULY AWAKENED to who they are.

- Many folks FALSELY believe that they are adequately awakened to who they are -- and awakened to the vitals relative to life -- and living it to the fullest . . . But they are woefully wrong in lots of aspects . . .

- Plainly "speaking" -- some folks are just addicted to stupid.

There are, however, MORE folks who are AWAKENING and thereby seeking more about love, truth, peace -- and what "ingredients" add up to TRUE POWER AND FREEDOM.

Yep, more folks are coming out of "dead," stale, recycled, repetitive and insufficient/false teachings . . . And awakening to FREEDOM -- indeed!

Cheers to that positive, liberating truth.

Healthy Living Information

Hi -

Of course, use your own wisdom and judgment about practicing and adhering to any content that is contained here.

And of course, we need to exercise regularly.  There is a right exercise plan to fit each of us.  We need to know which plans are best for our individual needs . . .

Note:  Recently, I started stocking up on frozen fruits, such as mango chunks, blueberries, cherries, raspberries, etc.  I'd already been doing frozen vegetables. 

Frozen fruits and vegetables, in SOME cases, can be just as good and healthy as fresh fruits.  For more on the benefits of frozen foods, scroll down on this post to the section titled, "Benefits of frozen foods." 

Note 2: In a blender, I mix fruits and vegetables (if frozen -- slightly thawed) to make smoothies.  Healthiest = About 60% vegetables and about 40% fruit blended.

Vegetable Smoothies -- Note: Smoothies sure do have health benefits, but don't forsake eating solid fruits and vegetables (frozen/thawed fruits and vegetables are solids, as are fresh fruits and vegetables) because eating solids helps with chewing and digestion needs.  Also, the nutritional values decrease when going from solid to smoothie forms.

The following recipe is compliments of A. Wells:The Best Homemade Ginger Tea

Ingredients

Serves: 1-2

1 Tbsp. fresh grated ginger
2 cups filtered water
1 Tbsp. raw honey or pure maple syrup
½ lemon, juiced
Optional

1 cinnamon stick
Camomile flowers
Echinacea tincture
Fresh mint leaves
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Directions

Peel the ginger root with a peeler or with the back of a spoon.

Grate the ginger with a grater/zester. If you slice it, slice it thin and use more.

Infuse the ginger; if you add cinnamon, mint, camomile or cayenne, add it here.

If you are using a saucepan, bring the water to a boil, add ginger and turn off heat. Put the lid on it and let it steep for 10 minutes.

If you are using a teapot, add ginger in the teapot and pour boiling water in it. Let it steep for about 10 minutes.

If you are using a saucepan, strain the water to remove the ginger.

Add fresh lemon juice and natural sweetener if you like. Stir and enjoy!

If you want a cold tea, let your tea cool down, store it in the fridge and add ice cubes before serving.
