beauty of mind, body and spirit derived from botanicals "Eat your way to gorgeous" is named for fun, but indisputably, the quality of your air, water and food very much contributes not only to a healthy interior, but a beautiful exterior and an altruistic and compassionate mind. I've personally experienced that a botanically based diet has an amazing effect on my consciousness, and conscience. This website is devoted to the health of the individual and the planet, and to contribute to the worldwide growing awareness of the obscene level of disrespect industry has had towards animal and plant life. It's a result of realising that in order to determine where to find what to eat and how to eat it for optimal health, and to understand the repercussions of those choices, necessitates reading everything I can find on these subjects, because marketing and even so-called regulatory bodies hide the truth .. you have to find it yourself. This website will be an ongoing documentation of my best ideas and finds. There are so many fantastic websites that inform about these same things .. well researched, highly educated and integritous sources that there can't be enough of. This more heightened awareness is where the world is headed .. finally.
quotes: "You never know what you've got ... till it's gone." A DELICATE BALANCE (a must-see DVD) "The world is currently undergoing a very rapid loss of biodiversity comparable with the great mass extinction events that have previously occurred only five or six times in the Earth's history." ~ World Wildlife Fund "We find ourselves ethically destitute just when, for the first time, we are faced with ultimacy, the irreversible closing down of the earth's functioning in its major life systems. Our ethical traditions know how to deal with suicide, homicide and even genocide, but these traditions collapse entirely when confronted with biocide, the killing of the life systems of the earth, and geocide, the devastation of the earth itself." ~ Thomas Berry “God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools”. ~ John Muir “In his arrogance over his own increasing knowledge and ability, man has ignored his dependence on the earth and has lost his communion with it. He no longer puts his ear to the ground so that the earth can whisper its secrets to him. He has cut his links with the elements and has squandered the resources which are the heritage of millions of years of evolution, all those living or inanimate things which sustained his inner energy - earth, water, air, the flora and fauna. This loosening of his intuitive response to nature has created a feeling of alienation in him and is destructive of his patrimony”. ~ Indira Ghadhi  |
