BAM! BLIX! KAPOW! In an earlier post, I talked about how food is our medicine---but it comes with a one-two-punch: We need to supplement our diet with vitamins and minerals. Minerals are "The Currency of Life", and major amounts, as well as traces of minerals, can be found in the mixture of plants, animal tissue,... Continue Reading →

Sunrise . . . There is a joy of waking up to the sun rising and welcoming the day, its sacredness and holiness. Shabbat Shalom! We awaken to create a world of Godliness. Shemot (Exodus) 31:16-17 Judge not those of us who choose to honor Shabbat . . . for, one day the whole world... Continue Reading →
