Dawn of a New Day Raw Desserts – Now in Print!
April 11th, 2010
Fast and Easy Desserts for the Whole Family
What this book is about
I love dessert and I especially love raw desserts since I can eat as much as I want and still feel good. Believe it or not, if you have all the ingredients ready to go, it takes less time to make many raw desserts (20 minutes on average) than it does to make a cooked dessert. As an added bonus, raw desserts energize you, they don’t make you sleepy and the raw chocolate recipes produce a feeling of well-being. You are just going to love this.
Do you like dessert?
Most of us love dessert but don’t like the sluggish feeling that comes after eating them. Here’s a solution: treat your family, friends and yourself to raw desserts and eat as much as you want without feeling sleepy or eating refined sugar and flour. There’s no guarantee that you won’t gain weight since the largest factor in gaining weight is what you believe (the law of attraction as explained in Ask and It Is Given) but you’ll certainly feel better about what you’re eating.

“Just read a little bit of your dessert book. I had been on a huge raw forum and mentioned that I had finally purchased cacao nibs and that I thought that they were over-rated as they are bitter. Out of the thousands of people on that forum not a one of them ever suggested to me that I needed to soak them! OMG! 1 minute into your e-book and now I know!” -luckitri

Dance
It will keep you flexible, bring joy to your life and give you exercise.
Places to dance
I dance while I’m brushing my teeth, walking around the house and to the music in my car. Missy likes to put on music and the three of us dance around the living room.
Dance like no one is watching (that was Mark Twain, right?)
If the mood strikes me I even dance when I’m out in public, just walking down the street or in the mall, but then again, I’m bold and I’d rather be in my bliss then care what other people think. And I think that I’m giving other people permission to be in their bliss and dance too. I’d like to think I’m a sewer of bliss and permission to be genuine.
Beyond Recycling – Save gas before you start your car
July 21st, 2009
If you’re looking for a way to save gas, and who isn’t, try doing everything you need to do before you start the engine. I recently read that an idling car uses more gas, so keep the idling to when you’re waiting at a light.
What can you get done before you turn on the car?
- Put on your sunglasses
- Put your green smoothie in your cup holder
- Plug in your phone
- Turn your mobile phone’s headset on and put it on in case a call comes in
- Check and adjust your mirrors and seat
- Buckle your child’s seat belt
- Buckle your seat belt
- Plug in your iPod and start your driving playlist or audio book or
- Find the radio station (this you have to turn the car on first and then find the radio station) or
- Put in the next CD of The Power of Now that you’re listening to (okay, so that’s what I’m listening to now. And, yes, I’m listening to it yet again.
) - Call in your angels to surround your car and assist you in having a pleasant ride in
- AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU ARE DOING NOW THAT CAN BE DONE WITH THE CAR OFF
Just imagine how much time all that takes to do when you could be doing it with the car off.
So, how’s that for saving gas?
No-Show Tan Lines
July 7th, 2009
The Challenges
I just put on my bathing suit and realized the tan lines I have from being out all weekend are going to show in my bathing suit. If we lived in a country where we could sunbathe without our clothes then we wouldn’t have tan lines, right?
One Solution
Since our society requests us to wear clothing when out in the sun, we need to come up with other solutions. I was thinking that if all our tan lines were the same, then there wouldn’t be any tan lines to show. So I was thinking, choose a bathing suit and all your summer shirts to have the same lines. If you choose a halter bathing suit then wear halter tops and so on.
No tan lines on the beach
If you want to look great in your bathing suit at the beach, and you don’t mind what your tan lines look like when you’re wearing regular clothes, (some people like seeing tan lines) wear lighter sunscreen when sunbathing in your bathing suit and stronger sunscreen when you’re out and about dressed in shorts, a short skirt or short sleeves.
Just to give you an idea of what I’m talking about, I went to the Miss America pageant when I was in college and was amazed at the tan lines the contestants had gotten from wearing shorts. The competition was held in September so they had the whole summer of wearing shorts to get those lines. Also visualize, if you will, what we call a "trash-man tan". Got it?
Wearing sunscreen on the exposed parts of your body when you aren’t sunbathing will keep tan lines swimsuit appropriate and you’ll look great on the beach and at all those pool parties.
When to get your Vitamin D
We do need a certain amount of sunlight in order to get enough Vitamin D but it’s probably better to get that sun before 10AM and after 4PM. I find that following that advice, which I got from Self-Realization Fellowship, I still get a tan and the sun I need without getting burned or damaging my skin.
Disclaimer
I’m not a doctor, nor to I play one on television. You must use your own guidance and take responsibility for yourself, checking with your doctor if you deem it necessary, before changing what you are doing now.
Evidence of the benefits of sunlight
Just look at all the life that lives outside all the time and doesn’t turn red in the sun: flowers, trees, weeds, herbs, water, grass, buildings, birds, dogs, cats. Hey, our hair doesn’t turn red either.

RAW CHOCOLATE
