~ Food Has Power ~
Greetings all,
I am an enthusiastically and sharing user of milk kefir for a few years now, learning first from The Dom's wonderful website, his forums, and Marilyn the Kefirlady's forum. From there and my own experimentations am thoroughly enjoying our adventures with kefir and its healing powers. Pictures of the development of my giant kefir which several of us variously labeled as Kefirzilla, Kefir Manna Colony, and other suggested names, may be seen at: http://photobucket.com/Joyce-KefirMannaColony . Its ultimate size before I finally had to apportion it up was approx. 7 3/4" in one direction and somewheres near that in another. Due to its many cauliflower type bumps a straight ruler was hard to get "exact" .. I would loved to have seen it continue ... but was eating me out of hourse and home :) .
A few years back I also started fermenting vinegar, kombucha, water kefir, and various kitchen alchem experiments with preservation of fruits/veggies with the various ferments.
I think this site is a great one. Am a firm believer in holistic health ... I am starting several wiki websites which I hope to get "coordinated" for subject matter and overlap before "grand opening". The info will be for fun and for free.
Since the Heal Yourself is shared on Facebook, is there a way to share it, or parts of it on such as mine .. 1 section will be Recipes and Remedials; another about Truth and Health Freedoms; Full-Circle of Life (holistic health-ways) which will be more relevant than some of the others which will be dealing with the early days of my life, Mom of 5, 2 marriages then, farming, businesses all as the overwhelmed persona Li'l Ol' RedHen... then off to law school at age 50, off to Alaska to practice Indian tribal law at 53 .. (in between were "The BLIPPS" ("bipolar lives in process and progress" and substance abuse etc., healing from traumas and recoveries .. my soulmate and our lives as BLIPPS in the HE SHE WE section) , the latter part (NativeLegal Eagle will feature the various jurisprudences (i.e., life-ways and law-ways) of the tribal systems and the U.S. domestic laws and systems from the "view" at the Aerie and now in my elder years retired Attorney Emeritus). Another wiki is "Cradles for Humanity" to encourage the building of individual and community, etc. "Cradles", (iconic and/or physical) with meditative nourishing and nurturence through growth; "Sanctuary Seeds" an online gentle place to "be", regroup with hopefully at some point in time to coordinate with our dreams for the physical home and Sanctuary Gardens especially for abused women and children. That one may have to await another time for fulfillment.
When this is ready, I think a website and blogs such as "Heal Thyself" will provide supplemental "help" both directions .. symbiotic relationships like kefir!
Comments and thoughts appreciated.
