About RJ 365

Greetings!

Well, it’s going to be quite the (Raw) Journey now, isn’t it?  I have whole-heartedly committed to getting healthy this year in the best way that my body knows how.  And, I am doing it in a creative way which I’m very excited about!  Many of you know I’ve been enjoying delectable raw foods in my diet for over 4 years now.  Some seasons more fully than others.  Well, here it goes:  Beginning January 1, 2012 (only a few days from now), I’ll be committing to a diet that consists of raw foods PLUS one cup of anything else I want to enjoy daily!  RAW PLUS ONE — I love it!  I feel joyful, healthy, light and energized when my diet is comprised of whole living foods.  I have also felt deprived after a few months of only raw.  Instead of playing the “I’m in the garden tractor; I’m not in the garden tractor” game (some kind of crazy cycling on and off), I’m setting myself up for SUCCESS.  As my coach Jamie Eslinger said, “This commitment addresses it all.”  It addresses what my body, mind and spirit need by consuming delicious, yummy, energizing alive food and it addresses my emotional needs, too  – the part of me that needs to know I am not deprived.  That PLUS ONE will give me the extra food that I want to eat…when I do.

This year is about SELF CARE.  An injury in early December helped me to see how I put energy out into the world which was clearly outweighing what I allow myself to receive.  It’s time for a change.  If I want to live another 50+ years on this planet and see my children (and their children eventually) grow up, I need to make a change.  It’s been easy to deny that there are health issues I struggle with….but denial is not going to get me where I want to be.  Raw Journey 365 and my commitment to daily blogging will be the motivation to keep me going.  It’s not the only change I am going to make — so stay tuned – for I will write about EVERYTHING in this blog.

See you in the New Year!

With Love,

Robyn
