I'm a raw and living foodest. For those of you who are unfamiliar with what that is I only eat foods that have not been cooked. I do this because it maintains all of the nutrients and enzymes intact and is much healthier. I'm not here to try to convert anyone. I think you can reach maximum health by eating all kinds of foods fixed all kinds of ways. This is simply my life choice. What I'm here to do is help educate people as to what is happening to thier food. Did you know that the pharmaceutical companies have lobbied to have a law voted on called "Codex Aimentarius" that will take away our freedom to take suppliments? It has already been implemented in Europe. Of course it is still ok for them to put steroids, antiboitics and harmones in our foods. Have you wondered why there is a great influx of people acting aggressively and out of character? I'm here to help guide you through this mess. If you want to eat meat...eat meat...just get chemically free meat. I'm here to help you understand what is happening to you.

It sounds as if you are stressing about something. Start noticing if you are clenching your jaws closed at night or grinding your teeth. This could be the cause of the headaches you experience upon waking. What you need to do is some relaxing exercises. Find yourself someplace you can sit or lay in a relaxing position. Start by slowing your breath down. As soon as it is at a manageable pace start to breath in slowly to the count of eight, then breath out to the count of eight (thats one one thousand, 2 one thousand, etc.). Once you've slowed your body down to match your breathing start to notice what is tense and how you are holding your body. Notice the parts of the body that you are tensing. Really take note of this feeling (bad, good or indifferent). Really feel it for a moment. You could even intensify it as much as you can stand. Then, start to let the tension go in each area of the body one area at a time. You release the tension on the exhale. Feel the heaviness of the tension exiting with each breath. Spend some time with each release and observe how this feels to you. Relax with it. Notice how it makes you feel. It may even feel uncomfortable for you at first, but stick with it. After you've released the tension in your entire body hold this relaxed state for as long as possible. Again, make special note to how you are feeling. As a matter of fact it is very helpful if you do this periodically throughout the exercise. You can also use this time before you to mull over problems such as personal growth, spiritual, school, and work for example. Dont be surprised if you fall asleep (sleep is the ultimate relaxed state) though. This exercise can also be good for times when you are having intense problems or difficulties. What you would do is when you enter the final relaxed state you begin to focus on the problems at hand. Just let the ideas come to you, don’t force it. At first answers will come to you in the form of intuition. Your ability to be open to answers to difficulties will grow and become obvious if you keep it up. If you are using these exercises for help with problems you want to make sure you stay awake. If you do fall asleep, though, don't worry about it. You can also use these exercises to help you through difficult situations. People who make you nervous for some reason, for example: If you find yourself in a difficult situation start to slow down your breathing. Check out the areas of the body that you are tensing. Start to release these areas and relax. The more you practice with this the quicker you will be able to adust and not to let other peoples intensity affect you. There will come a time when all you have to do is think about it and you can change your state of mind. If this method doesn’t sound like it will work for you, you do need to look for some way to relax. Your simply taking in other people's negative energy. This will help you reground. Good luck!
Namaste,
