If yes, it's a living food. Good examples of living foods are vegetables and fruits growing wild or in your garden. My favorite memories of eating living foods are when I would pick wild berries and find myself eating most of them before I got home, or when I would be tempted to bite into a tomato that had just picked out of my garden. I even remember once pretending I was Bugs Bunny and biting into a carrot right after pulling it from the ground and wiping it clean. "What's up Doc?" It's an incredible experience I call "from garden to mouth". Those of you who have had similar experiences know what I mean when I say there is a distinct difference in the flavour and the energy that these foods provide.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Raw foods are the other stars of health and nutrition. Just remember this about raw foods: the older they get, the fewer nutrients they contain. Think about this: when any living food is picked, it is separated from its energy source (it's "umbilical connection" to Mother Earth), and its growth begins to slow. Within 24 to 48 hours after picking, all the growth stops. This is when a living food becomes an "adult" raw food. Now, as days go by, a raw food's powerful healing energies begin to slowly "radiate out". This may be evidenced by a change in color, a softer texture, a wrinkled appearance, a sweeter taste, etc. Be aware of this and choose only the freshest raw produce as you shop.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;(by Rose Lee Calabro from Living in the Raw)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-2460801413881978652?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/2460801413881978652/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/05/what-are-living-foods.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/2460801413881978652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/2460801413881978652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/05/what-are-living-foods.html' title='What Are Living Foods?'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-2482277178724574239</id><published>2011-05-09T00:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-09T12:01:11.380-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Cacao, Cocoa, and Chocolate</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;What do we mean by cacao, cocoa, and chocolate? Cacao is the tree (Theobroma cacao) and the beans before processing. Theobroma gave the name to a sister of caffeine present in cacao seeds called theobromine. The terms "cocoa" and "chocolate" have meant various things over time. Today cocoa usually refers to the defatted powder from cacao beans, while chocolate refers to any of the manufactured products of the bean. Even though the cacao tree had its origin in the forests of the Amazon and the Orinoco in South America, it was in Central America and Mexico that cacao trees were widely cultivated and their products used as a beverage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The Mayas introduced drinks made from the cacao bean to the Aztecs, who called this drink chocolatl. The Spanish found it pleasant and stimulating, enough so that Cortez brought it back to Spain in 1528 and introduced the drink there. In 1606, Antonio Carlotti introduced it to Italy and France. The use of chocolate spread to England, and by the early 1700's, there were about 2000 chocolate houses in London. It was the first stimulating drink that became popular in Europe. Caffeine and theobromine are the two closely related stimulants present in the cacao bean. Chocolate is quite low in caffeine, compared to coffee or even tea, but there is enough to give you a moderate lift. Theobromine, while not very stimulating to the brain, is mildly diuretic. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;We have good news for the chocolate lover who's worried about the fat in the chocolate.

Red, the colour of fire and passion, has the power to excite the senses. Blue, cooling and quieting, brings serenity, calms our feelings and slows our reactions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Sit in a red room and your chatter will become animated and time will fly by. Sit in a blue room and your thoughts will become introspective. Relax, there is no need to hurry. Time will hang heavier here. Each colour has its own properties and excerts its individual influence, subtly impacting on our emotions and behaviour in different ways. Green brings us solace, orange joy and violet inspiration.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;It is only by becoming aware of these effects that we can harness the power of colour and actively use it to express our feelings or to change key aspects or our lives. Create a completely new atmosphere in your home by simply changing the decor. Improve your image by wearing the colours that bring your face alive. Or even enhance your health by focusing on the colour that will help to bring balance and harmony to your body and mind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(by Lori Reid from the colour book)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-6041492001071140856?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/6041492001071140856/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/colour-and-emotion.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/6041492001071140856'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/6041492001071140856'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/colour-and-emotion.html' title='Colour and Emotion'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-4893926944659460540</id><published>2011-04-29T06:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-29T06:09:16.788-07:00</updated><title type='text'>May you be guided</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;"From the heart of Ancient Africa&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Pulsates the drumbeat of Wisdom&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;As old as its Legends, As Noble as its People,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;As Challenging as its Warriors&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;This is your time&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Your Place of Choosing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Your moment of Decision&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Fly as the Eagle&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Roar as the Lion&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Live Life Deliberately, Passionately, Never Passively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;May You be Guided."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;(by Eivind Gjoesund)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-4893926944659460540?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/4893926944659460540/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/may-you-be-guided.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/4893926944659460540'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/4893926944659460540'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/may-you-be-guided.html' title='May you be guided'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-1314094704644601816</id><published>2011-04-28T01:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-28T01:45:53.446-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Importance of Medicinal Plants</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Plants were once a primary source of all the medicines in the world and they still continue to provide mankind with new remedies. Natural products and their derivates represent more than 50% of all drugs in clinical use in the world. Higher plants contribute no less than 25% to the total. Well-known examples of plant-derived medicines include quinine, morphine, codeine, aspirine, atropine, reserpine and cocaine. Recently, important new anti-cancer drugs such as taxol (Taxus spp) and vincristine (Catharanthus roseus) have been developed. In South Africa, a large part of the day-to-day medicine is still derived from plants and large volumes of plants or their extracts are sold in the informal and commercial sectors of the economy. South Africa's contribution to world medicine includes Cape aloes (Aloe ferox), buchu (Agathosma betulina) and devils claw (Harpagophytum procumbrens), but local equivalents exist for many of the famous remedies used elsewhere. There is a growing interest in natural and traditional medicines as a source of new commercial products.

In shamanic and indigenous cultures, they may be called totem animals or power animals. Often these terms are used interchangeably, although there are subtle differences in meaning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;The term power animal has its origin in shamanism. This is a specialized animal guide that shamans or shamanic practitioners acquire early in their initiation into their practice. Their power animal travels with them whenever they go on a shamanic journey, which is an altered state of awareness in which the practitioner sends their soul or consciousness into non-ordinary reality - a shamanic term for the spirit world - to receive teachings, guidance, and healings. You can, however, have a relationship with a power animal even if you're not a shaman or shamanic practitioner. They may come to you in meditations, visions, dreams, or shamanic journeys. It's a highly personal and specialized relationship with an animal spirit guide, one in which the personality and characteristics of the particular power animal that you've attracted to you is typically reflective of your own personality and characteristic.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(by Steven D.

The fact that eating certain kinds of beans produces flatulence is often quoted as a negative effect, because beans contain both protein and carbohydrates. However, it is now known that this is not the reason for beans' boisterous reputation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Some beans contain proteins such as lectin, which cannot be digested by the enzymes in our digestive system, even when eaten alone. These proteins can, however, be digested by the bacteria that live in the large intestine. So when you eat beans you feed not only yourself but also these bacteria. After a good meal of lectins, these bacteria produce gas, hence the flatulence. It has got nothing to do with food combining. Many cultures throughout the world have evolved to eat a diet in which beans or lentils are a staple food -&amp;nbsp; but they suffer no digestive problems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(By Patrick Holford from The Optimum Nutrition Bible)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-5277633754867222550?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5277633754867222550/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/myth-of-bean.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/5277633754867222550'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/5277633754867222550'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/myth-of-bean.html' title='The Myth of the Bean'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-5934708612569377883</id><published>2011-04-20T08:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-20T08:49:32.262-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Value of Fresh Juices and Drinks</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;The advantage of juices is that they focus and concentrate the energy of enzymes, minerals, vitamins, and phytonutrients. Juices carry the amplified healing energy of fruits and vegetables plus added food concentrates such as chlorella. Fruit juices act primarily as cleansers. Citrus fruits, for example, have solvent actions; apples contain malic acid and galacturonic acid, which are detoxifiers; pineapples have a high bromelain content, which has many healing and anti-inflammatory effects. Fruits - and fruit juices even more so - help to cleanse and purify the organs. Vegetable juices have more of a tonic effect that heals, stabilizes, and builds the body. Like fruit juices, each vegetable has a specific power to heal a particular organ. For example, beets and dandelions help heal the liver. Green juices contain chlorophyll, which is a tonifier that leads to incredible healing experiences for many.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(by Dr. Gabriel Cousens from Power Juices Super Drinks)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-5934708612569377883?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5934708612569377883/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/value-of-fresh-juices-and-drinks.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/5934708612569377883'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/5934708612569377883'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/value-of-fresh-juices-and-drinks.html' title='The Value of Fresh Juices and Drinks'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-2908136084906970891</id><published>2011-04-19T00:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-19T00:56:52.967-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Energy and Health</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Consider the most basic function of energy, which is to keep your body alive. Your body is in a healthy state when its energy is in a healthy state. Such a notion goes beyond the worldview of mainstream medicine. A hundred years ago, germs were the stars of medicine. All the excitement centered on discovering new bacteria and viruses, matching them up with diseases they caused, and then killing the germes before they could hurt the body. Today germs are the stars of the show, and the same pattern is repeating itself. The biggest excitement centres on finding new genes, matching them with specific diseases, then trying to manipulate or splice them before harm is done to the body. Yet the star should have been energy, because germs and genes, like any object, are reducible to energy, and therefore all harm caused to the body is traceable to this fundamental force.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(By Deepak Chopra from&amp;nbsp;Reinventing The Body, Resurrecting&amp;nbsp;The Soul)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-2908136084906970891?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/2908136084906970891/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/energy-and-health.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/2908136084906970891'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/2908136084906970891'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/energy-and-health.html' title='Energy and Health'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-3270075340040806192</id><published>2011-04-18T04:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-18T04:14:39.517-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Citrus Flu Tonic</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;With winter approaching, a good recepy for a flu fighter drink might be appropriate:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Citrus Flu Tonic:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;1&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Grapefruit, juiced&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;2&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Oranges, juiced&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;1&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Lemon, juiced&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;1tsp&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Orange Rind Juice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;1/4&amp;nbsp;inch Ginger Root, minced&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;2ml&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Echinacea Liquid Extract (2 dropperfuls)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;1&amp;nbsp; tsp&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Royal Jelly&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Cut the grapefruit and oranges into eights, but only after you scrape, scrape, scrape the pulp from the inside rind.

Each day was another day closer to the suffering of the Cross. Any man would want to run from such a fate, but Christ used fasting to strengthen His resolve. One of Satan's main tactics is to encourage any addiction or lifestyle that makes the body the master, where man is moved by every little whim of the flesh. Fasting is a powerful discipline for bringing the body under submission. You take control. It suffers and you say NO. A soldier without needs cannot be tempted and will not turn from duty. Each great servant of God had his/her time of fasting. It is an essential spiritual discipline and without it we are weak. It fortifies spiritual foundations, builds intimacy with God and strengthens resolve.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-5815873053972079972?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/5815873053972079972/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/fasting-for-spiritual-strengthening.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/5815873053972079972'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/5815873053972079972'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/fasting-for-spiritual-strengthening.html' title='Fasting for Spiritual Strengthening'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-5589860406212858341</id><published>2011-04-13T00:53:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-13T00:53:39.695-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Prayer of the day</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;Today, I will allow myself to be surprised by God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;I will invite and welcome the miracles which are so effortless to the Divine Mind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;I will be open to the greatness and generosity, to the unparalleled imagination.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #666666; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 10.5pt;"&gt;I will respond with gratitude and dwell in the light of wonder!

In Ayurveda, the physical body is the gateway to what I call the "quantum mechanical human body". Physics informs us that the fabric of nature lies at the quantum level, far beyond atoms and molecules. A quantum, defined as the basic unit in matter of energy, is from 10,000,000 to 100,000,000 times smaller than the smallest atom. At this level, matter and energy become interchangeable. All quanta are made of&amp;nbsp;invisible vibrations - ghosts of energy - waiting to take physical form. Ayurveda says that the same is true of the human body - it first takes from as intense but invisible vibrations, called quantum fluctuations, before it proceeds to coalesce into impulses of energy and particles of matter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;The quantum mechanical body is the underlying basis for everything we are: thoughts, emotions, proteins, cells, organs - any visible or invisible part of ourselves. At the quantum level, your body is sending out all kinds of invisible signals, waiting for you to pick them up. You have a quantum pulse underlying your physical one, and a quantum heart beating it out. In fact, Ayurveda holds that all the organs and processes in your body have a quantum equivalent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(By Deepak Chopra, Perfect Health)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-7804920476462748513?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/7804920476462748513/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/quantum-mechanical-human-body.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/7804920476462748513'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/7804920476462748513'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/quantum-mechanical-human-body.html' title='The Quantum Mechanical Human Body'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-6208600096859875347</id><published>2011-04-05T01:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-05T01:44:03.130-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Enzymes,  The Spark of Life</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Enzymes are the universal "Spark of Life". The word ENZYME comes from the Greek root ENZYMOS, which means "to cause change". Enzymes are responsible for every metabolic action in the body. From blinking an eye to secreting saliva, from the beating of the heart to digesting nutrients, enzymes are the champions that make it all happen. They are the catalysts that enable cells to work and chemical reactions to happen without themselves being consumed in the process. Enzymes are ancient and modern magic.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Enzymes are energized protein molecules made up of specific protein structures called APOENZYMES. Enzymes work with cofactors, such as&amp;nbsp; vitamins and minerals, to spark biochemical reactions. It is the energy created by the enzymes that produces biochemical reactions, which is the magic that orchestrates a trillion cells to cooperatively function. These actions and reactions regulate the body's&amp;nbsp; diverse processes and are an essential part of larger processes like digestion. Without this "spark of life" of enzymes, life would simply cease to exist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Specific enzymes are tailored for specific means and needs. There are thousands of different enzymes in the body, each with a precise encoded function. There are enzymes for digestion; cellular function and energy; repairing tissue, organs, and cells; utilizing and decoding nutrients; concentrating iron in the blood; coagulating blood; eliminating carbon dioxide from the lungs; detoxifying waste from the kidneys, colon, and liver; and a relatively infinite number of cooperative interactions that enable the miraculous process of life to happen.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;(by Renee Loux Underkoffler from Living Cuisine, The Art and Spirit of Raw Foods)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-6208600096859875347?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/6208600096859875347/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/enzymes-spark-of-life.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/6208600096859875347'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/6208600096859875347'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/04/enzymes-spark-of-life.html' title='Enzymes,  The Spark of Life'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-7498964212417186302</id><published>2011-03-31T06:35:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-31T06:35:09.972-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The 12 Steps to a Comlete Body Detox</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Step 1: Attitude&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;This is one of the most important steps of the 12, addressing and setting the right attitude upfront will insure that you will carry out the following 11 steps.

Emerging from that space is vibrating energy. Everything that exists, be it natural or synthetic, has a vibration, an electromagnetic charge, and a resulting field. The earth itself, the moon, trees, animals, even your dining room table, all have a specific vibratory pulse that not only affects their own being, but the energy of those around them. Things that have a lot of Life Force Energy vibrate at a much more rapid rate than things that have very little Life Force Energy. For example, a plant vibrates at a much more rapid rate than a table. An apple vibrates at a much faster rate than a serving of fries.

BREAKFAST is appropriately named as it is breaking a nightly fast with a morning meal. Upon awakening from this short fast, the tongue is coated, breath foul, skin puffy and the ming foggy. These are all early symptoms of the body in a state of detoxyfication. Bacon, eggs, a side order of pancakes, and a cup of coffee is a sure way of halting detoxification. Of course, you fell instantly better, attributing it to a greasy breakfast.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;These nightly fasts slow the erosion process and much repair work is done, but the time is too short for serious healing.

All ancient traditions understand that Life Force Energy needs to flow freely and abundantly form the energy fields surrounding us into our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being to be possible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;If Life Force Energy is the power that breathes life into everything that lives, it's not something that you want to go through life low on, though most people do. The one thing everyone is after - great-looking, healthy appearance - can easily be attained simply by increasing the flow of this key ingredient in the body. IN A WORLD CONSTANTLY IN SEARCH OF THE MIRACLE FOOD, THERE IS SIMPLY NOTHING ON THE PLANET THAT IS AS GOOD FOR YOU AS LIFE FORCE ENERGY!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Life Force Energy is a real, measurable force that surrounds everything on our planet. The ancient traditions consider it to be highly nutritive: they knew there was a much more powerful nourishing force at play than just solid foods. Now it is time for the Western world to give credit where credit is due - not to milk, grain, and beef, which rob us of our life force - but to CHI, KI and PRANA, which provide it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;(by Natalia Rose from her book: Raw Food Life Force Energy)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5025965138951566601-3912837148023589140?l=watershedhealth.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/feeds/3912837148023589140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/tapping-secret-laws-of-life-force.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/3912837148023589140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5025965138951566601/posts/default/3912837148023589140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://watershedhealth.blogspot.com/2011/03/tapping-secret-laws-of-life-force.html' title='Tapping the secret laws of life force energy'/><author><name>WaterShed Health</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03410403388959753489</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_cECLxeuBGY/TX9ZJI-BLzI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/xN3Ni8NgSuE/s220/IMG_8974.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5025965138951566601.post-2067696795015101495</id><published>2011-03-23T00:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-23T00:07:17.291-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Taking back your life</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;With so much information on how to change your life, your diet, your emotions, what you manifest, and a plethara of tools with which to do it, how in the world does a normal person make his or her way through all this self help information to find THE way, THE truth and the LIGHT?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;The simple answer is each person must find their own&amp;nbsp;truth.&amp;nbsp; Take one step in the right direction and The Divine Forces kick into gear to support you.&amp;nbsp; It is not in reminding yourself what you don't have in the vision board, or creating unreachable ambitions that make this moment glaringly lacking.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;It is in ticking the boxes in each moment that are easy, achievable and nurturing to your physical, mental and emotional bodies.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;So just for today, drink two litre's of water, do five minutes of stretching, listen to your favourite inspiring sound track, smile at every person you pass on the street, tell yourself how gorgeous you are, and speak gently to your loved ones.&amp;nbsp; Eat one salad and one less coffee or tea.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;How is that going to change your life?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;For every time you show respect to yourself you are ticking a box of loving and forgiving yourself and others you are activating&amp;nbsp;the Law of Vibration, Law of Attraction and raising your level of light.&amp;nbsp;

While much more research is needed into the field there is no doubt that holding onto anger, resentment, frustration or envy can wear down your mind and body. If nothing else, you will regularly feel fatigued and have a deminished capacity to enjoy your everyday life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Emotional detoxing means not only addressing these "old wounds", but also any harmful thought patterns and habits that lead to fear and anxiety - both of which can impact on your health.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
