Welcome! Thanks for visiting! Allow me to whet your appetite for learning more about the 'raw foods diet'. Do you want to be a good steward of that magnificent temple called your body? How about stewardship of the earth? Do you know that you can practice good stewardship of the earthly blessings our Creator has bestowed on us and reap vibrant health in the process? The raw foods lifestyle is about all that and more. If you are interested in making changes that will ripple out and affect other areas of your life as well, then it's a great place to start! It's animal friendly, for sure. It's organic. It's sustainable. Almost everything that comes out of your kitchen can either be eaten, recycled, or composted! The amount of trash that leaves your home could be greatly reduced, if not eliminated altogether. Pretty soon you may find yourself changing not only the foods you are buying, but many of the household products and clothing as well. You will undoubtedly gain a new appreciation for all that has been entrusted to us. And what about stewardship of our most precious resource.......our children! If you are a parent, or about to become one, there is a terrific video, along with a companion manual that is specifically geared toward assisting you with that very thing! Raising Children Raises Us by Shannon Leone and family You don't have to be too astute to look around and see that in this country our children are in dire straits when it comes to health and dietary practices. The prevalence of ADHD and the alarming rise of Adult Onset Diabetes (in CHILDREN!) should be a wake-up call to us all. If we don't change things for ourselves, (and why wouldn't we want to?) we should at least give the next generation a fighting chance! I began 'Simply Raw Bliss' after being introduced to the raw and living foods lifestyle almost 4 years ago. Watching my own mother succumb to the complications of diabetes at the ripe old age of 39 only served to make me keenly aware that there had to be another way. Unlike many others who embark on this diet and lifestyle, I didn't have any serious health issues or an inordinate amount of weight to lose, but I wanted glowing health, energy and disease prevention. Plus a whole lot more! And that 'whole lot more' was what was missing in everything I had tried in my life up until that point. Once you experience the magic of raw foods, there's simply nowhere else to go.....but forward! For more information on conquering diabetes with a live foods diet, you will definitely want to see "Simply Raw: Reversing Diabetes in 30 Day". I cannot recommend it highly enough! My goal is to help introduce others to this life-changing path towards raw and living foods, and assist them in integrating more raw foods into their diets, as well as making other dietary and lifestyle changes for optimal health and well being. As you will see, there's more to it than just food, and it only gets better as time goes by. (Hence the term 'lifestyle' and not just 'diet') It begins with your health, and then spills over into every other area of your life, the lives of those around you, and hopefully into the lives of your children as well. I encourage you to join me on this journey; it's as fascinating as the destination itself! I hope this frequently updated site will provide you with some 'one-stop-shopping' for informational resources, products and motivation to get you started out right on the journey to vibrant health through the raw foods lifestyle.

Come and Get It! They sit in their places Concern on their faces Four people with big appetites. When one will at last Get the courage to ask "What's for dinner tonight? Is it something new Made with tofu Or a vegetarian meal? Why must we eat Substitute meat Can't we have food that is real?" Mother tries to explain To erase their disdain As they eye the food with suspicion. "Get ready to run" Warns the skeptical son Who is not impressed with nutrition. "I just want you to try it On our new healthy diet" The nurturing mother implores. "It's full of Omega threes, They'll help you fight disease. If you like it you can have more!" "What's in it?" they question. "Is it good for digestion? Remember what happened the last time! We don't want to be rude, But we miss our junk food. Couldn't you find a new pastime?" Mother smiles. "Relax! It's loaded with flax. The health benefits are incredible. It'll help you live long And be healthy and strong. I promise you it will be edible. You must be persuaded. Your tastebuds are jaded From too much unnatural food. But give it a chance Your tastebuds will dance. You'll have a new food attitude!" They bolt for the door The ravenous four Afraid if they eat they will sicken. "Are you out of your mind?" Mother calls from behind "Really...it tastes just like chicken!"
