Delightful Date Dip

As you may know, I like simple. So, this date dip includes 2 food ingredients plus water. I'm sure there are endless possibilities to explore. The way I've eaten most of my first batches of dip have been with apple slices. What ideas do you have?

Delightful Date Dip

2 c pitted dates

1 c water

1/4 c oats

Combine ingredients in high-speed blender to form a caramel-like consistency, remove mixture from blender, and chill. Slice green and red apples. Enjoy!

EXPLORATION IDEAS: cooking the mixture so it tastes more like caramel, cocoa, hazelnuts, cashews, miso, peanuts - yum!

DAILY DOZEN CHECK MARKS: Several fruit checkmarks, depending how much you eat! Probably no grain checkmarks though, unless you eat the whole batch!

Please share in a comment below if you have an idea of what you want in another post. I'm excited to share!
 

Healing the Whole Body: Mindset, Nutrition, and Movement Training

Many thanks to all of you who were able to join us for this wonderful training for women! Healing the Whole Body: Mindset, Nutrition, and Movement. It was a beautiful morning of learning, inspiration, and joy!

Several of you requested a recording of the morning training, so here you go: this is the entire morning! As mentioned in previous posts, there were three parts.

Debbi Sluys presented first about mindset! Her company name on its own is inspirational: Dare to Declare! She motivated me to actually swim with my kids in the hotel pool that night which was oh so joyful! Usually I'm too cold in the water, so I have fun watching. Playing was even more fun! She encourages everyone to have more "play" in their lives. Click on photo below to watch the training!

I was up second, and my presentation was about Healing the Body with Food! Click on link below and go to 01:14:30 on the recording.

Karena ended the wonderful morning with a friendly interview about movement. Karena has very specifically helped many who suffer from scoliosis. She has some simple moves to teach us all that feel wonderful. If you or anyone you know suffers from scoliosis, I strongly encourage you to give Karena's Scolio-Pilates a try. It just may change your life! Click on her photo below and go to 02:06:00 into the recording.

If you enjoy the training, or have comments or questions of any kind, I would love to hear from you! Leave a comment below. Thanks for visiting!

Free Super Plant Based Whole Food Snack Demo

 

How did I Get Started on Plant Based???

I need an interview with Christine Harmon to let you all know what SHE does! (Also)

For now, here is the interview we had last week. I just want to say that when Christine asked me about my journey to plant based, I could have started with an even earlier step: cutting out processed foods and junk! That is another key factor in the whole world of PLANT BASED WHOLE FOODS.

I began learning about that from the Super Size Me (2004) movie and Ultraprevention (2003) by Mark Hyman and various readings from Dr Weil. Another very influential documentary was Food, Inc. (2008), in which journalist, author, and filmmaker Michael Pollan stars. Today, you could read Pollan's Food Rules, front to back, and it could change your life!

Here is the INTERVIEW! It is also available on FB HERE :)
