How I Quit Smoking & Addictions, Ep129

Over the weekend I realized that this New Year coming up is not only a new year, but we are heading into a fresh new decade!! How exciting is that??!! I’ve also been receiving a lot of emails recently asking me to talk about how I quit smoking. So in spirit of ending the year off in victory (hint hint), today I share my experience of overcoming one of the hardest addictions out there. If I can do it, anyone can!! Also, this info is about how I quit smoking but you can use it for any addiction from addictions to coffee, sugar, drugs, booze, etc… addictions are addictions, they come in all forms but they all do the exact same thing, they control us and take away our self respect and quality of life.

I am also super excited to announce next month’s 10 Day Juice Fast!!! It will be from January 2-12, 2010— A perfect way to start the year, do a cleanse and jump start your health and happiness goals!! Click Here to Sign Up!

Healthy Low-Fat Salad Recipe, Ep52

To get the most out of the Raw Food Diet, you need to eat plenty of greens. The best way to get greens into your diet is through salads, but your salads have to be tasty in order for you to want to come back for more. My suggestion to everyone is to know how to make a few delicious salad dressings that you can either whip up in a matter of minutes or that you can make a big batch and store it in a glass jar in your refrigerator for a week– then whenever you’re hungry, you can prepare a fabulous salad in just minutes!!! Whatever you do, please stay away from any store-bought salad dressings, they are full of many unwanted ingredients including sugar, trans-fats, msg, chemicals, preservatives, artificial flavors, fillers, etc..

So, today I share with you my absolute favorite salad. I have this salad almost every single day!!! Its easy, low in fat, and made out of pure and fresh ingredients.

The recipe is below as well!
