Last Fall, Bethanne and I rented our “Wildly Edible Super Raw Mountain Home of Bliss and ORMUS Paradise” with a half acre alongside Mt. Tamalpais in Mill Valley, CA. With massive gardening areas, the first thing I did was order lots of heirloom seeds including many vegetables from Seeds of Change. I threw most of every seed into a mason jar of spring water, GroPal, Marine Phytoplankton, Mycogrow, our saliva, and a pinch of salt to germinate and be planted under the full moon. Read more
How-To Make A Super Tonic Herb Tea
If there is 1 daily ritual I could not live without right now, it’s brewin’ up a magical tea that contains 1-2 dozen herbs. I’ve been in the habit of using loose leaf herbs instead of tea bags for a long time now and really feel that you get much more therapeutic benefits when you consume the herbs this way.

It’s also much more cost-effective and the blend options are endless. Read more

Honestly, I didn’t used to do this because I didn’t have a dehydrator, but now that I have one and do it this way, I just think it’s so much better! Read more
My Low-Glycemic Experiment (w/ bonus cacao shake recipe!)
When I saw Christian Bates‘ low-glycemic Superfood smoothie demo at the Santa Barbara Raw Spirit Festival in June 2009, I was struck by the possibilities of eating a lower sugar diet. I was in the front row watching the demo, every move on how to create a *super* delicious smoothie that wasn’t loaded with bananas, dates, and agave. My mouth was watering and I was in total awe after tasting the low-glycemic Superfood cacao smoothie. Read more
