We'll see you there for the raw food Festival/Expo/Wedding of the year... ;)
I have never seen a more BEAUTIFUL piece of functional artwork than this 'Raw Emotions' printed book. When I showed this 256-Page, updated, full-color book to my mom, she practically snagged it out of my hands for herself! 'Raw Emotions' is printed on recycled paper with veggie inks and it is FRESH off the press. The book has a lovely foreword by Victoria Boutenko and additionally, $1 from the sale of each book goes to organisations that either protect forests or plant new trees. This GORGEOUS book is an IDEAL RESOURCE for anyone interested in their relationship with food...personally, I feel that every household could benefit from having a copy of this book around!
Are you a 'comfort eater'? Do you feel at ease with your body and your relationship with food, or are there things you'd REALLY LIKE TO CHANGE?
Do you LONG to feel balanced, healthy, happy and peaceful? Perhaps you've been eating raw already for a while and find you're still struggling with cravings...?
Have you tried 'Diet after Diet' - sometimes lost weight, then put it back on, and want to release that weight for good?
Why don't those diets work? Most 'weight loss' programmes just focus on the 'weight'.
RAW EMOTIONS looks at what can bring the weight on - and it's not just food ;)
Raw Emotions goes beyond the physical, to examine the emotional and spiritual factors that contribute to our eating patterns...and gives you PRACTICAL, solid insights into how to create LASTING CHANGE :)
Whatever your current relationship with food looks like, RAW EMOTIONS, has something to offer you.
You'll learn ways to:
understand YOUR emotional connections with food
release patterns that no longer serve you
examine your history with eating AND create your optimal vision for yourself
re-connect authentically with your emotions
address cravings and let go of overeating
choose inspiring activities and resources to keep on track
find balance in your food choices and lifestyle
feel more connected, loving and joyful
Combining proven 'self-help' techniques with a raw lifestyle, 'Raw Emotions' contains 60 specific tools and action tips for engaging YOUR transformation.
This truly unique book, based on personal experience and extensive research, is a 'first' in the raw foods movement: an invaluable guide on how to 'dance' with and heal emotions that 'come up' when we change how we eat for our health.
ANGELA STOKES, author of RAW EMOTIONS is renowned for her remarkable PHYSICAL transformation - a 160lb weight loss with a raw food lifestyle.
This book is inspired by something people have found even MORE REMARKABLE than her physical changes: the emotional and spiritual shifts in Angela's life.
In this new book, Angela shares the major tips and tools that helped her experience this dramatic shift from a lonely, moody, angry and defensive overeater to a life of genuine JOY, VIBRANCY, LOVE and BALANCE.

The following information is for education only and is not meant to diagnose, prescribe, or treat illness. It is valuable to seek the advice of an alternative health care professional before making any changes.
I am very excited to announce the new 'Becoming Younger' Blog, written by our dear friend Michelle. Firstly... let me provide you with the following article that will help introduce the blog...
As I have stated many times in the past, the NUMBER ONE benefit of the 100% Raw Food Lifestyle is... Eating this way means that you are leaving out all of the 'foods' that damage the body the most, thus creating space for healing to occur.
The more foods that you leave out of your diet completely, the more you will cleanse & detoxify, the more sensitive you will become to previous food choices and environmental toxins, and the more 'in-tune' you become to that vibrational spiritual energy...
In this article, we are going to focus on the issue that the more you leave out of your diet, the more sensitive you can become to environmental toxins. My book 'Raw Success' goes deep into these concepts.
Have you noticed, for instance, that since you have improved your diet, you are more sensitive to cigarette smoke? Personally, I can't STAND to be around cigarette smoke now. However, before I improved my diet, it wasn't that much of a bother to me. I can sense that the cigarette smoke is damaging me more now than it did before I improved my diet, because I am more sensitive now.
The same is true in regards to the Environmental Toxins polluting our planet today. The more foods that you leave out of your diet completely, the more sensitive you become, and the more damaging these environmental toxins become to the body. I feel that living in a city is not conducive to the 'Raw Lifestyle' in the LONG-RUN. However, it generally takes years to reach this type of extreme sensitivity with a 100% Raw Food Lifestyle... so, don't get bent out of shape if you are currently raw and living in the city... I feel it is key to leave the city in the LONG-RUN though, for ultimate health and longevity.
It saddens me that the ENTIRE PLANET is not as 'pure' and pristine as it used to be. Since we know that the more you leave out of your diet, the more sensitive you become, I recommend that Raw Foodists aim to not become too 'clean' by eliminating the more concentrated foods from our intakes, such as Nuts, Seeds, Sprouts, and green food powders. By retaining these foods in our intake, we can, in a sense, hold ourselves back from becoming even more sensitive and cleaner. Besides these kinds of concentrated foods, all the other (vegan) choices for a Raw Food Eater are pretty much water based and easily digested. I feel that if someone eliminates these concentrated foods from their diet, that they will become so clean in the LONG-RUN that their health and longevity may be adversely affected by the state of our polluted planet. Now... 99.99% of the people reading this article very likely don't have anything to worry about in regards to this situation, including myself, as we are not practicing fruitarianism with some vegetables thrown in.
In my book 'Raw Success' I discuss my perception of 'the optimal diet'. Here is an excerpt from 'Raw Success'.
We can think of longevity as if we are walking on a balance beam - we desire the perfect quality and amount of food, so that we can put the aging process into slow motion, yet avoid becoming so clean that we suffer harm from our environment. As illustrated in the following diagrams, the ideal diet is healthy, yet not too extreme, giving us a sturdy endurance in the midst of our atmosphere. The purpose of Raw Success is to guide you along the optimal path, leading you far beyond what was ever imagined possible for your energy and your life, for decades to come.
When we continually improve our diet, the body evolves to higher and higher levels of cleanliness. If our "diet is too clean" in quality and quantity, in the long-run, our body's refined sensitivity becomes vulnerable to the toxic everyday environment. This state of purity is like plush white carpet that no one wants to put in the house because it will show every speck of dirt. Living in this rather filthy 21st Century world, you track in grime from outside all the time. I
am not suggesting that you tar and pave your body to withstand the Indy 500 coming through (as is the case with most SAD Dieters), but it is wise to have a buffer.
Poor quality cooked or processed foods, substances like drugs and alcohol, or consistent stressful eating habits like overeating, snacking and late night meals (even the best quality foods), can also shorten life. Then the greatest threat to long life is not environment, it is diet.
As in all things of wisdom, balance is the key. When we can eat sufficiently for our needs and not let our body's evolution get ahead of our planet's environmental evolution, then we achieve the greatest possible longevity.
The "Optimal Food Intake" I propose in 'Raw Success' is based on Dr. Norman Walker's eating habits... I have studied Dr. Norman Walker's work inside and out. I believe that he ate 1 - 3 small meals a day. I provide all of the details of his diet (as perceived by me) in my book 'Raw Success'. I include quantities of fat, fruit, veggies, food combinations and much more.
Dr. Norman Walker's book 'Guide to Diet & Salad' has about 100 different salads that he ate and you can glean a lot from looking them over. His salads are BEAUTIFUL and taste really good - they are satisfying without leaving you feeling stuffed. I am of course aware that there are a massive amount of co-factors for anyone choosing an 'Optimal Food Intake' and I go into much more detail in my book 'Raw Success'. Overall though, I believe the way Dr. Norman Walker ate to be very close to a general 'ideal'.
AND NOW... the 'Becoming Younger' Blog...
Michelle Sabathne', the co-author of 'Raw Spirit' and 'Raw Success', has decided to take a tremendous jump forward, by setting the intention to eat the 'Walker Way' every single day... AND... Documenting her daily routine in her new blog 'Becoming Younger'. In the past, at times when I have consistently eaten small yummy meals like this, it is the BEST I have ever felt. My Long-Term goal is to eat like this consistently, forevermore... OH... And... I Will!!!... However, I am not there right now...
I HIGHLY Recommend that you sign up for this blog... Whether it's 1 meal a day - 3 days a week - or 100% all in --- If you would like support eating raw food, or eating the 'Walker Way', as outlined in his 'Diet and Salad' book and 'Raw Success', then sign up to receive regular supportive emails.

Oatmeal Cookie!!!
The 'Better Than Roasted' Company sent us another sample package of goodies, which contained this oatmeal cookie! When I saw Angela's eyes light up at the first bite, I just knew it was a WINNER. I feel that it is one of the BEST TASTING cookies on the Raw Food Market. It taste JUST LIKE the oatmeal cookies I used to eat when I was eating 'SAD'. (Angela tells me that to her, these cookies taste just like a 'flapjack' - a traditional oat snack bar in the UK, which are usually laden with white sugar - she used to be addicted to flapjacks before she went raw and is very excited to see a raw replacement!)
Additionally, these cookies are made using Real Raw Oats that have not been rolled or cooked. If you look really closely at the picture, you may be able to see the oats and they look somewhat like wheat berries. This is the whole oat and has not been rolled or processed. They simply soak the oats and sprout them. I love getting these oats into my diet, as they are extremely enzyme active. Dr. Norman Walker talked about having small amounts of certain grains in a soaked form such as oats and rye. He said to soak them and chew them really well. They are very beneficial due to the high enzyme activity. You can read about this in his 'Guide to Diet & Salad' book. Enjoy...
Oatmeal Cookie Ingredients: Oats, Apples, Raisins, Agave, Cinnamon, Nutmeg.
Here are all the latest new additions to The Raw Food World Store:
