You Be The Judge...

I have a whole lot of entries for the subscriptions to Dr. Ann Wigmore's Raw Living Foods Online Home Study Program from RawLife.org.

I wish I could give every one of the entries a free membership. But that's not possible.

Would you like to help me choose the winners? I've posted a poll on the website, on the right side of the screen. Look over the entries and check off your choices.

You can choose up to 5 entries (I know how hard it is to pick just two).

Here's the link:
http://rawlife.org/contest/get-the-raw-foods-home-study-course-online-free.htm

I'd really appreciate your opinion on who should win.

You can vote once a day, and voting will be open until December 7th. On that day I'll announce the winner that you helped choose.

Thanks for your help!

Privacy Policy

PRIVACY POLICY

Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the Internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the Internet's vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete confidence. 

We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how our company collects information from all end users of our Internet services (the "Services")-those who access some of our Services but do not have accounts ("Visitors") as well as those who may purchase Products and/or pay a monthly service fee to subscribe to the Service ("Members")-what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the collection and use of such information. We request that you read this Privacy Policy carefully. 

Personal Information Our Company Collects and How It Is Used

Introduction. Our company collects information in different ways from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services and the network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Products and Services, and generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below. 

Registration:  Members may be asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up for our Products or Services including name, address, telephone number, billing information (such as a credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to access the Services. The personal information collected from Members during the registration process is used to manage each Member's account (such as for billing purposes). This information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances.

However, in instances where our company and a partner jointly promote our Services, we may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the promotion. 

In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any other purpose. We may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from personal information Members provide during registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of Members). As explained in more detail below, we may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell advertisements that appear on the Services. 

Our Company Partners and Sponsors:  Some products and services may be offered to Visitors and Members in conjunction with an affiliate, independent contractor seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors and Members some of these products and services, the partner may need to collect and maintain personal information. In these instances, you will be notified before any such data is collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular service or feature. 

Additionally, our partners may have advertisements or co-branded Web Pages that are cosponsored by an affiliate, independent contractor seller, or non-affiliated partner. Our company may share non-identifying and aggregate information (except as described above), but not personal information, with such partners in order to administer the co-branded products or services offered. 

Online Shopping:  At some Web sites, you can purchase products and services or register to receive materials, such as a newsletter, catalog or new product and service updates. In many cases, you may be asked to provide contact information, such as your name, address, email address, phone number, and credit/debit card information. 

If you complete an order for someone else, such as an online gift order sent directly to a recipient, you may be asked to provide information about the recipient, such as the recipient's name, address, and phone number. Our company has no control over the third parties' use of any personal information you provide when placing such an order. Please exercise care when doing so. 

If you order services or products directly from our company we will use the personal information you provide only to process that order. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete that order. 

Online Advertisements:  Our company may display our online advertisements. In those cases we share aggregated and non-identifying information about our Visitors and Members collected through the registration process as well as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers. 

Additionally, in some instances, we use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements or joint ventures. For instance, an advertiser or joint venture company tells us the audience they want to reach and provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may then display or send the advertisement to the intended audience. Our company does not share personal information about its Visitors or Members with these advertisers or joint venture companies.

Responses to Email Inquiries: When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to our company, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. Our company does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with any third party. 

Voluntary Customer Surveys:  We may periodically conduct both business and individual customer surveys. We encourage our customers to participate in these surveys because they provide us with important information that helps us to improve the types of products and services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third party. Participation in our customer surveys is voluntary. 

We may take the information we receive from individuals responding to our Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other customers we may have, to create broader, generic responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third parties.

Special Cases:  It is our company's policy not to use or share the personal information about Visitors of Members in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. 

However, we may disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: credit agencies, collection agencies, merchant database agencies, law enforcement, or to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the Child Online Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Acceptable Use Policy or Terms Of Service, or other user policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect our company and our Members. 

"Cookies" and How Our Company Uses Them. A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. Our company may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the products and services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks. 

If you are a Visitor or Member we may use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your customer information. Additionally, be aware that if you visit other Web sites where you are prompted to log in or that are customizable, you may be required to accept cookies. 

Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them. 

Our Company Commitment to Children's Privacy. Protecting children's privacy is especially important to us. It is our policy to comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and all other applicable laws. Therefore we restrict our Web site to persons eighteen years or older.

YOU MUST BE EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OR OLDER TO ACCESS THIS WEB SITE. IF YOU ARE UNDER EIGHTEEN YEARS OF AGE, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ACCESS THIS WEB SITE FOR ANY REASON. DUE TO THE AGE RESTRICTIONS FOR USE OF THIS WEB SITE, NO INFORMATION OBTAINED BY THIS WEB SITE, FALLS WITHIN THE CHILD ONLINE PRIVACY ACT (COPA) AND IS NOT MONITORED AS DOING SO. 

Public Forums:  Please remember that any information you may disclose in any Member Directory, or other public areas of our Web sites or the Internet, becomes public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these public areas. 

Our Company's Commitment to Data Security:  Services and Web sites we sponsor have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. While we make every effort to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party "hackers" from illegally obtaining this information. 

Where to Direct Questions About Our Privacy Policy:  If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or the practices described herein, you may contact us through the contact information provided on this Web site. 

Revisions to This Policy: Our company reserves the right to revise, amend, or modify this policy, our Terms Of Service agreement, and our other policies and agreements at any time and in any manner, by updating this posting.

FTC Financial Disclosure Statement

When You Click on a Link on this Website

When you click on a link from here to another website, there may be a financial agreement between us. They may be paying us a commission on anything you buy, or they may be paying us to display their ad.

I do not write any product reviews or post any links to products, websites or people that I don't believe in. Like anyone, sometimes I've been mislead, but I make every effort to only deal with reputable people and products. Please let me know about any problems you might have.

Naturally, I can't be responsible for what happens in your dealings with these people.

Anti-Spam Policy and Statement

I Do Not Send Unsolicited Bulk E-Mail to Strangers

chiDiet.net is an Internet publisher and we make extensive use of email to communicate with our subscribers, authors, seminar customers, book buyers and others who are interested in our products or services.

However, we do not send unsolicited bulk E-mail to lists of people who have not requested to be on one or more of our own e-mail lists such as our free newsletter.

Nor do we rent our email lists to any other commercial organization and we do not participate in groups that combine their lists with others. We serve a very specialized segment of the market and any kind of mass market advertising is a waste of our time and money.

All email you receive from us will either come through anyname @ chidiet.net or through our independent third-party double opt-in email service, anyname @ aweber.com.

Even so - we have discovered that people who are well versed in the use of email can send an email with a false return address. It's an email form of identity theft which is becoming very common.

A number of bulk mailers have been sending out bulk e-mail (spam) with one or more of our email addresses as their return address. We can only speculate as to why this is being done but we are getting complaints from some inexperienced email users who do not seem to understand the limitations of email. We have responded to these complaints with a request for the person who is getting the spam email to send us a complete copy of the offending email so that we can analyze the header information and attempt to locate the source of this attack. If you are not a customer or are not on our newsletter list and have received a promotional email from anyname @ chidiet.net I can assure you it did not come from me or my company.

We have been hearing that this practice of using a disguised return address on an email is becoming very common and that many legitimate web sites are having the same problem. Whenever there is an outbreak of some new virus or worm, we begin to receive automated email from numerous Internet Service Providers informing us that they received a virus from an email that was sent to them from our domain address.

The only other explanation regarding the large amount of this kind of  perverse email identity theft that seems to make some sense is that we are openly opposed to the promotion of illegal diet and supplement scams and schemes by unscrupulous promoters. We have most likely persuaded many people not to invest thousands of dollars with various promoters who are making fraudulent promises about their programs.

These promoters may be trying to put us out of business or at least to cause us some expense and aggravation.

Illness and self-exploitation

Illness is usually the result of many, many years of constant and continuous self-exploitation.

Self-exploitation is something we can remedy instantly - here and now - it depends entirely on us.

Two parables about Being Raw

This is a lifestyle choice, not a religion. Even if you're not eating 100% raw, how much better are you doing than when you were on the SAD (Standard American Diet)? Eating outside of the program is nothing to feel guilty about.

Two Parables
“When I didn’t do my homework, my teacher would embarrass me in front of the entire class. This didn’t make me love to do homework. Instead it made me hate the subject that teacher taught.”

-----------------------------

“I didn’t call home very frequently. Whenever I did call home, the first reaction I heard was always, ‘How come you didn’t call until now? Why do you make us worry so much about you?’

This made me feel guilty. But I so disliked hearing this that I kept pushing off making telephone calls to my parents. I wish they would have said, ‘We’re so happy to hear from you.’ This would have made me call more often.”

-----------------------------

One Big Green Smoothie a day is a great start... By that I mean lots of greens, and just a bit of fruit. The rest of your healthier lifestyle will come with time.

Climbing the transitional ladder to raw foods

Backslider’s Corner 
by James Carey, CHI certified “Advanced Practitioner of Health”

When I find myself out in the world and/or am sorely tempted to eat something that doesn’t qualify as Raw Living Food, I make my decision based on the following chart of desirability:

1.  Raw Living Food
2.  Lightly steamed veggies
3.  Fresh frozen veggies
4.  Cooked but Vegan
5.  General Vegetarian fare
6.  Raw deepwater fish (sushi) – less polluted
7.  Cooked deepwater fish
8.  Animal flesh
9.  Soy protein based (all soy is cooked food)
10.  Dairy products (higher fat content than meats)
11.  Offal, dung, etc.

So on a scale of 1-11 I try to eat as high on the chart as possible. Or... I often just do a 2 or 3 day water fast; that's healthier than eating cooked food, in my opinion.

Many people expect me to score soy protein higher on the chart than it is, but the chemicals and other detrimental side effects of soy outweigh the benefits of the plant-based protein it provides. (see www.chidiet.com/problemswithsoy.htm)

Backsliding but progressing is all about NOT feeling guilty about slipping. If you go to a Chinese restaurant and have the steamed veggies, at least you can console yourself that you didn’t have the Flied Cat Poo-Poo Platter. <g>

Remember that Raw Foodism is a lifestyle choice, not a religion!

Jim Carey

Borderline foods challenge staying raw

I’ve discovered why it was so hard for me to stay 100% raw the last few years. I was eating what I call “borderline” foods – foods that are considered raw but often aren’t such as store-bought nut butters, prepared raw foods that you can now get at Whole Foods that contain coconut butter and coconut oils which I don’t believe are good for you as they harden at room temperature and have an eternal shelf-life, dehydrated foods, dehydrated and prepared and raw restaurant foods containing Braggs liquid Amino acids (not good) and Nama Shoyu (not good), lecithin (bad), cacao powder (a heavy drug), and even un-soaked nuts (not ideal).

When I ate like this too often my cooked food cravings would return in a serious way. Now that I am no longer messing with the borderline and I’m eating more simply it is so easy to stay 100% raw it is almost effortless!

Good news, bad news, and acid-alkaline body chemistry

Isn’t it amazing how we let the evening news wash over us, flooding us in bad news and making us acidic quicker than we can think about it?

What would be wrong with not listening to TV or radio news?  Walter Cronkite once said, “The entire contents of the evening news would fit comfortably on the front page of your daily newspaper.”

If TV and radio news is that superficial, why do we let it control our body chemistry?

I didn’t find out about Michael Jackson’s passing until two days after it happened. Inasmuch as the family would have called me on the phone if they’d wanted me to attend the funeral, I don’t see how this matters...  (I don’t read the newspapers very often, either).

Remember – Cancer thrives in an acidic, low-oxygen environment. It withers and dies in an alkaline, high-oxygen one, like that created by a raw living foods lifestyle. For more about creating an alkaline body chemistry visit www.chiDiet.com.

Feedback - Ann Fuller

Hi Jim,

Thank you so much for the "Backsliding" inspiration.  I am finding that the same thing is happening in my life.

It's been a year since I spent 5 weeks at the Institute in Puerto Rico, and I am not 100% raw yet, but I don't have cravings for meat or dairy any more, and I am a lot healthier than I was.

It is a slow process, we just need to be patient with ourselves.

Thanks,

Ann Fuller

Transitioning to raw living foods

-- by Jim Carey

The biggest challenge we face in transitioning to raw living foods is enjoying the food. I remember my first few weeks - indeed, my first year - on a raw foods diet. After a meal I wasn't hungry, but I often didn't feel "full" or "satisfied." Two or three times a week, especially when I was already in town, I'd pick up a cheese pizza, or - once or twice - a rotisserie chicken. I'd been a vegetarian for several years, but suddenly found myself going back to meat upon occasion.

What I had to learn was how to satisfy that feeling of fullness that cooked fooders are used to having. That's where the "transition diet" comes in. In the transition diet we learn to make richer, tastier foods that mimic the tastes our bodies are used to. Mock turkey, mock mashed potatoes, mock pumpkin pie, mock chowder, and so on. There's a lot of use of oil (extra virgin olive oil, of course), honey and other natural sweeteners, and Celtic sea salt. There's also a lot more fruit in the transition diet than in a well-balanced raw food diet.

While transition foods are satisfying our appetites, our taste buds are slowly and subtly changing. Now, after three years of being more and more raw, I've reached the point that even the smell of most cooked foods disinterest me. I find them totally unappetizing. My diet has also become much simpler as time goes by, and I find myself eating more and more greens and grains, and much less fruit. I also don't need or miss that full and heavy feeling.

The best way I've found to learn a transitional diet is a visit to a hands-on school like Creative Health Institute. Not only do they serve tasty raw gourmet transition foods, they teach how to prepare it with hands-on work in the kitchen, they teach about how and why the body works, the technical reasons that a raw foods diet is better for your body - and the camaraderie and atmosphere of CHI makes it easy to be raw, because the guests and staff are all supporting each other.

Another feature of schools like Creative Health is the interesting people you meet there. In my numerous visits over the last three years I've met people from all over the US, and from Canada, Russia, Malaysia, Holland, France, Australia, Korea, Trinidad, Zimbabwe, Japan, China, England, Luxembourg -- it's like going to an International Summer Camp.

A Philosophical Outlook On Being a Raw Fooder

The older I get the simpler and more unified life looks to me.

We're all creatures of energy. Everything in our lives, everything around us, everything we experience consists of energy.

To start with, we're made up of energy. Every proton, electron and neutron in our universe - including those that make up our bodies - is made up of three quarks. Quarks are, simply put, just energy. In the microcosmic analysis of it, all we are is a bundle of energy forms.

It's obvious to us that people and animals also have a life energy - something different than molecular energy. The cells of a dead animal don't stop existing, they change (decay, rot), but the life force energy of the animal is gone.

What about plants? In the past two decades scientists have measured the life energy of plants, and define it as biophotonic energy. It's a separate thing from molecular energy and explains how plants can respond to music, voices and love. So plants have a life force energy, just as animals do.

When we interact with others we gain emotional energy. When we interact with love and affection our positive energy is returned to us, increased. But even when we interact with hate, disgust or animosity, our ego gains energy. Negative energy, true, but the ego doesn't care - energy is energy and the ego wants to be fed.

The same is true of our physical bodies. Our bodies gain energy from almost anything that we put in them. Obviously there are side effects to the Standard American Diet (SAD) - obesity, cancer, asthma, heart disease, diabetes, and all the others. But despite the damage such a diet is doing, people continue to eat it because it tastes good, just as they'll argue or fight instead of walking away.

So consider this: If our egos will fight instead of walk away,  and if our bodies will consume known toxins, what are we doing to our biophotonic (life force) energy in the process? Another thought: can these effects on our biophotonic energy be considered karma?

Here's the way I think of it: When I kill or cook my food I destroy the biophotonic energy, the life-force energy of the food. When I eat raw living foods the life force energy of the food becomes a part of me.

When Dr. Ann Wigmore taught that we should "listen to our bodies, because they will tell us what we need," she was referring to what our bodies truly need, not what we've trained them to want.

That's where Dr. Ann's detoxification, cleansing and lifestyle come it. By following her regime we clean ourselves up enough to be able to listen to what our bodies need, not want.
Yours in Radiant Good Health,

Jim Carey

The Two Basic Causes of Disease

Dr. Ann Wigmore taught that toxemia and deficiency are the root causes of all disease.

Deficiency that means that our bodies are undernourished and are not receiving the proper types and amount of food the body needs. The digestive tract is being overloaded and allergies have developed. Dr. Ann Wigmore believed that about eighty per cent of the population has deficiency disorders because of the body’s inability to digest food. This is why she developed methods for blending, sprouting, and fermenting. Living Food is supremely efficient nourishment that returns the body to health and productive self-healing.

Toxemia is a term used to describe poisons that are stored in the body. Toxins are formed from eating impure or unnatural, processed and chemicalized foods. Dr. Ann taught that the body can release these stored poisons by feeding it with Living Food in easy-to-digest form. Once the body eliminates stored poisons that have accumulated in the bloodstream the cells are able to receive nourishment, thus enabling the immune system to strengthen and rebuild.

Comments from Jim Burch

Hi Jim,

I've been living in backsliders corner, you know, on the other side of the tracks, for most of my life now. Your advice on the raw green soup once a day has been most helpful. 

I've been eating this now for about 3 months, in addition to other foods, both cooked and uncooked, and can say that without a doubt it has improved my health immensely. 

Your concern for others and actions to improve others lives is very much appreciated by me.

May the blessings be.

Another motivation to stay raw

- by Jim Carey

I've found, when tempted to slide down off the Raw Wagon, that it can help keep me Raw if I think about eating animal products as animal cruelty and abuse. We have to remember that lots of our products come from foreign countries that don't have the anti-cruelty laws we do.

Consider this: http://www.jlodown.com/.

Guilt and Denial

Don't try to avoid certain foods because of guilt. Too often, denial itself becomes the goal. That game is no fun at all. And, if you're like most people, it's a game you won't win.

Case in point: Think about the words "gourmet meal". Did you think about what you shouldn't eat? Does your mind turn to a juicy steak, eggs, or bacon, with feelings of guilt? The best use of food involves neither denial nor guilt.

Take a moment today to focus your intent on what you should eat - and the feeling of good health you will get from it.

Use this strategy and you will learn to think less about what you shouldn't eat.

Why resolutions fail, and what to do about it

You resolve to make a change for the better in your life - limit smoking, drinking, cooked food, etc.. You tell your friends, you write down your resolution, you actually make the change. It works, and it feels good. You're happy and proud. Your friends are happy and proud. Your life is better -- and then you backslide.

Why? Are you a slob without willpower? No....

Backsliding is a universal experience. Every one of us resists significant change, whether for the better or the worse. Our body, brain and behavior have a built-in tendency to stay the same, within rather narrow limits, and to snap back when changed.

Normally it's a very good thing they do. If your body temperature or blood sugar changed by 10 percent you'd be in big trouble. This condition of equilibrium and resistance to change is called homeostasis. It characterizes all self-regulating systems and applies to psychological states and behavior as well as to physical functioning.

Homeostasis doesn't distinguish between change for the better or change for the worse. It resists all change. Still, change does occur. So... how do you deal with homeostasis? How do you make change for the better easier? How do you make it last?

1) Be aware of the way homeostasis works.
2) Be willing to negotiate with your resistance to change.
3) Develop a support system.
4) Follow a regular practice.
5) Dedicate yourself to lifelong learning.

Whatever your age, your upbringing, or your education, what you are made of is mostly unused potential. It is your destiny to use what is unused, to learn and keep on learning for as long as you live. To choose this destiny isn't always easy, but it's the ultimate human adventure. Destinations appear in the distance, will be achieved and left behind. Still the path will continue; it will never end.

How to begin the journey? You need but only take the first step. When? There's always.... now.

-- these concepts came from "Mastery: The Keys to Long-Term Success and Fulfillment," by George Leonard (Dutton Press, 1991).

Raw Foods are a lifestyle choice, not a religion.

The unexpected side effects of a raw foods diet

Unexpected Side Effects of a Raw Living Foods Diet
- by Jim Carey, former Executive Director of Creative Health Institute

During the years I’ve been associated with Creative Health Institute I’ve seen dozens and dozens of people learn to control and heal their health challenges by adopting a Raw Living Foods diet. For one reason or another they’ve given up on American Medicine, they realized that there is no “Magic Bullet” for what ails them, and they’ve come to us.

We’ve shown them that the Magic Bullet is within them - it’s their own bodies. They can’t change it; they have to use it the way it is. A raw living foods diet, organic when possible, is the Magic Bullet that they’ve been seeking.

I’ve seen people reduce, and even eliminate, their need to take Insulin or other medication to control their blood sugar levels; I’ve seen them control their hypertension while no longer depending on drugs; I’ve seen tumors shrink and disappear; I’ve saw a young lady get relief from the rheumatoid arthritis that had plagued her for 16 years; I’ve read testimonies from former students that their symptoms of fibromyalgia and candida had gone away; people that obtained the relief that they had been seeking when they came to CHI.

But each and every one of them also obtained an unexpected side effect -they had shed lots and lots of excess weight.

Richard came to learn to control his diabetes -unexpectedly, he lost 20 lbs. during his two week visit. Another letter tells of shedding fifty excess pounds, over the course of one year, “easily.” Indeed, Don Haughey, co-founder of CHI, shed 55 unneeded lbs. when he transitioned to the Living Foods Lifestyle and cured his 7 diagnosed ailments.

I originally became involved with the program because I saw it as a healthier way to live; unexpectedly, I dropped 20 lbs. in the first two weeks, 30 lbs. in the first month, and 90 lbs. over the course of two years. I’ve gone from 260 lbs. to 170 lbs., from a 44”waist to 33”, and, like almost every letter we get states, “I feel much better, I have much more energy, and I sleep better at night.”

Gosh, these unexpected side effects are great!

The world's greatest job

Backsliding but progressing is NOT about feeling guilty about slipping. Even if you weren't 100% raw this week, how much better are you feeling than when you were on the SAD?

The Home Study Program about the Raw Living Foods Lifestyle was developed from the teachings of Dr. Ann Wigmore at Creative Health Institute. I started putting this program together when I was Director of CHI because many of the people I talked to either didn't have the time to attend the two-week hands-on program in Michigan, or, if they had the time, they couldn't afford the cost.

I dug through a filing cabinet full of videotapes, handouts and lesson plans. I had binders full of teaching materials going back for over 30 years, from most of the Institutes that Dr. Ann founded or cofounded. I read memos and letters written by Dr. Ann Wigmore, and her staff. It was all heart-warming, educational, and sometimes amazing, the things that I learned.

After the first snowfall in Michigan that year I took my 10,000+ pages of research, documents and videos down to my place in southern Georgia. I spent the next months refining the paperwork and the videos. By the end of November I had created the first version of the "Home Study Program." It was 150 pages of handouts, all photocopied, and 15 videotapes.

On November 27, 2003, Mary D. from Caspian, MI ordered lesson one of the program. A few days after she received it she called back and ordered the complete set of lesson plans. Within the next few days David F., LDH, Joann T. and Bruce S. joined Mary to become our first five customers. I was surprised by the immediate demand, and how grateful the customers were.

How the program has changed since then. Originally it was available only on VHS, and those were crude duplicates of the videos in the CHI archives, much of it raw, unedited footage. Now the videos have been edited for quality, sound and content, and are available on DVD-R as well as tape. The "Handbook to Going Raw" has grown from 150 pages to 350+, and each copy is directly printed - no photocopies. The program now includes 38 videos, over 50 hours of material.

What sets the Dr. Ann Wigmore program apart from other raw food and detox programs is its thoroughness. Often when reading articles about other programs I laugh and say, "We have that!"

For example: The "energy soup diet" - we have that. "Colonics and enemas for detoxification" - yep, we teach that. "Living" vs. "raw but dead" foods - yep, we teach about that. Wheatgrass juice? Yep, that's one of our cornerstones. Gardening, composting, sprouting, purifying water, lightly fermented foods, food combining, transitioning to living foods, yummy raw living food preparation, exercise, internal cleansing, colon health, lymphatic system health, nutritional & dietary balance, lots of greens, dehydrating, alternative medicine, cooked foods as an addiction and staying on the program - the Home Study Program covers all of those subjects and more. It's like buying a dozen of the programs advertised on TV.

In the 5+ years that I've been involved with CHI and Dr. Ann's Raw Living Foods lifestyle, I've yet to see as complete an approach to healthy living as that taught by Dr. Ann.

A rewarding part of administering the Home Study Program is that I can keep the program aligned with the teachings of Dr. Ann. When you put someone in charge of a teaching Institute there is a tendency for them to introduce modalities and concepts that they personally believe in, even if they contradict the teachings of the founder. This is one of the challenges at CHI, as well as at other Institutes founded by Dr. Ann. In the Home Study Program I'm afforded the opportunity of being able to control this outside information, and to keep the program pure.

For the next two years I spent at least 6 months of the year living at CHI and serving as Director and, later, as Executive Trustee of the foundation. Sales of the Home Study Program were light but constant, and there was always a volunteer willing to help me fill the orders.

"Light but constant sales" began changing last year. Demand for the Home Study Program skyrocketed. Over 15% of all orders are from outside of the US. I was blessed to have Jerry and, later, Jimmy around to help me. Just as the popularity of raw living foods has increased dramatically of late, so has the popularity of our program. So much so that I've hired a professional assistant to help me keep up with it. Soon, I'm sure, she'll need a helper of her own. So many are asking me to speak to their groups that I'm not going to be around to help out in the office.

Oh, I'm not complaining. Believe me, I see this as the blessing it is. The "profits" from sales of the Home Study Program have funded a number of ministries. The income has allowed us to donate dozens and dozens of copies of the program to churches and other groups that have expressed an interest in raw living foods.

Best of all, it's enabled us to help fund a Raw Living Foods Mission in Narayi, Kaduna, Nigeria, Africa. This started out with a pastor, Prince Fidelis (Bartholomew Udumaga), but he's spread the word so passionately that they're now teaching about Raw Living Foods at eight additional churches in the area.

Prince Fidelis is not only sharing the raw living foods lifestye, but is also showing people that they do not have to work at arduous jobs every day to make a few pennies to buy a can of processed food. Instead, he is encouraging them to start gardens and sprouting projects in order to become, once more, agriculturally self-sufficient Africans.

The unexpected bonus? Each of these churches has a day care center, and are feeding the children living food meals every day.

How does this make me feel? Like I have the best job in the world - because I get to help others.

It's not just the African missions that make me feel fulfilled in this job.

We've now shipped almost 25,000 videos. I hope that they're being well-shared and viewed often. Being a "raw fooder" requires more than just not eating meat. I hear from many people that have thrown their bodies out of balance by eating too much fruit, or nuts, or other raw foods. This program helps them to get back in balance.

Surrounded as we are with increasing toxicity in our food and environment, eating a pure and healthy diet is more important than ever. More and more people are starting to see that, and I believe that's why the Raw and Living Foods Movement is growing so fast. People see that the Standard American Diet and the current medical paradigm don't work.

Hardly a week goes by that I don't get a "thank you" letter from someone that's seen a wonderful improvement in their health when they adopted the raw living foods lifestyle. People are flying halfway around the world to volunteer a few months of their time at CHI, just to "pay back" their gift of new-found health.

When someone comes up to me and says, "Thank you for saving my life," it's the most wonderful feeling in the world. Oh, I know I didn't save their lives; they saved their own lives by adopting the teachings of Dr. Ann Wigmore. I'm just the messenger.

Being Dr. Ann's messenger is the best job in the world!

Waking up to awareness

We must always be alert to the reality that we tend to become accustomed to the way things are, to assume that's the way they've always been and the way they will stay. The first step is to become conscious -- to become aware.

That is the challenge that we face -- doing what is necessary to raise the consciousness of enough people so they can see what the marriage of the corporations, agribusiness, governmental agencies and political influence is doing to our children and families.

Waking up is a phrase that should be a regular part of our political lexicon. We have to start looking EVERYWHERE to wake up to some of the ways our world has been modified to make it better for corporations, at the expense of what's good for humans and families.

Dumbing Down America - Intentionally

Why are people so resistant to Raw Living Foods? It has to do with the way we've been educating in America for the last 100 years. Read "Dumbing Us Down: The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling," by John Taylor Gatto.

Library Journal says: "In this tenth-anniversary edition, Gatto updates his theories on how the U.S. educational system cranks out students the way Detroit cranks out Buicks. He contends that students are more programmed to conform to economic and social norms rather than really taught to think."

Two Great Raw Resources

The Raw Foods movement is growing by leaps and bounds, and I love it.

 

The #1 question I hear is, "There's so much advice out there, who should I believe."

 

Me, of course. Only kidding. Actually, I believe in what Dr. Ann Wigmore believed - learn to "Listen to Your Body," and "Be Your Own Doctor."

 

Yes, there's a period of transition in which we have to learn to listen to what our body needs, not what we've trained it to want. That's where a regime like a hands-on two-week program at an Ann Wigmore Institute comes in, or a similar program.

 

There is one book that I've found extremely helpful over the past year. It gives an overview of most of the programs and gurus out there, and has a lot of solid, level-headed advice.

 

This book is The Live Food Factor, by Susan Schenck.

 

We have in-depth coverage of the first eight chapters of the book on RawDoctors.com at http://rawdoctors.com/index.php/live-food-factor.html. You need to be a registered user to listen to the interviews with Susan, but registration is free and only takes a minute.

 

 

Working with you to grow your health,

 

Jim Carey

 

 

P.S. It's not "cheating" if you're not 100% raw - it's simply eating outside the program. This is a lifestyle choice, not a religion. Just remember how much better you're doing now than when you were eating the SAD!
