Completion of Spring Detox 2015!

final detoxWhat a fun group and you were all so positive about changes made and motivated to keep the healthy eating as a lifestyle.  What a joy for Sasha and Dr. Lynn to work with people who “get it” and ” want it” .  The information and support have empowered us all to keep making gradual changes, appreciate the freedom to enjoy our health by avoiding addictive unhealthy food, and to have tools to support consistency as we go forward working with our thoughts … conscious and unconscious.  Truly a body, mind and Spirit approach!  Way to go group!

Handouts are available for those who missed the group.  Sasha discussed soaking raw nuts, legumes and grains for added enzyme and nutrient availability.  Soak overnight and rinse then cook as you otherwise would but get a big added punch of flavor and nutrients.  We all agreed we must try and add this as a new modality.

Planning ahead:   Decide on one or two days a week to prepare ahead some basic staples that will keep your ability to succeed in the healthy eating easy.  Prepare large amounts to keep over such as a  large soup, dhal, quinoa salad, lentils, roasted vegetables.  All work then as a base for bowls, added to salads, sides with protein, lettuce or gluten free wraps.

Dhal recipie  ( soak overnight before cooking for intensity of flavor and nutrients)

 

Yummy desserts with natural ingredients.  Even though a little sweet not the intensity to over stimulate the neurotransmitters but satisfying with a little.

Banana Ice Cream:   Put chopped, peeled, brown spotted bananas in freezer.  After frozen add to food processor.  Add 1/4 cup carob or cacao powder, cinnamon, dates. You can also add other fruit or berries if you desire.

Raw Brownies:  1 cup dates plus 1 cup water in food processor to make 1 cup date paste.  Mix with 1 1/4 cup raw almond butter, 1 1/2 cup carob or cacoa powder, 1/3 cup honey.  Mix and press into 9×9 baking pan and refrigerate.

FYI…. stay informed!!  Shop for organic, GMO free, half your plate vegetables at most meals, avoid packaged foods more than 80%!  Good luck and see you at the next detox in the Fall!
