Dear [[Friend]],
Lately there's been a lot of talk within the holistic community about the need for "reconnection":

reconnection to our intuition and inner awareness
reconnection to our bodies and hearts
reconnection to our values
reconnection to each other
reconnection to our beautiful Planet

But if our need for connection is so powerful, what caused our feelings of disconnection in the first place?

One of my good friends, author Lynn Serafinn, believes our ever-increasing absorption in consumer culture is heavily responsible for this widespread sense of disconnection. But Lynn also feels we can create positive change by opening up a global dialogue to talk about practical solutions to this problem.

That is why I'm helping to spread the word about The 7 Graces Global Conference, a 3-day conference taking place in London AND online via Interactive Worldwide Live Stream on Friday June 22nd through Sunday 24th, 2012.

An expansion upon ideas from Lynn's bestselling book, The 7 Graces of Marketing: how to heal humanity and the planet by changing the way we sell, The 7 Graces Global Conference (7GGC) will bring together business owners, marketers, media professionals, journalists, eco-citizens, conscious consumers and concerned parents to co-create a vision for the future that can help bring our society, our economy AND our planet back together.

The conference will feature 9 dynamic guest speakers from the UK and North America. If you attend the live stream, you'll be equally engaged in the dialogue, via chat and Virtual Breakout Sessions with other delegates and the panel of guest speakers.

I'm supporting this event because I share Lynn's vision for a worldwide dialogue that can help us find our way back to connection within ourselves, between each other and with Planet Earth. I hope you'll join us at 7GGC either in London or via Live Stream on June 22nd-24th.

Reflections on Raw Food at Natural Lifestyles

04/28/2012 18:41:00

I have just spent a fabulous day and wanted to share it with you so that you could feel great too.

I spent the day at "Natural Lifestyles" a wonderful space in Newport Pagnell where there is access to some of the healthiest and tastiest experiences.

Max and Jacqui had evidently been sharing the excitement about the presence of a leading light in the Awareness wave because there was a steady stream of wonderful people throughout the day. There was an eagerness to experience a new and better way of eating.

I loved the expressions and appreciative noises that followed each new experience.

They loved the savouries as much as the chocolates and

Several took away copies of The Power of Greens and a couple took The Beginner's guide to Awareness.

I really hope that you will benefit from what you discover.

I shared the basic guide to EFT and I know that the sections on whole body detox will prove invaluable to him too all of those are in the BgA.

As always people loved my food and someone, who expressed a comparison, said it was the best they had tasted and they had eaten in London!

That is really lovely to hear because even though I know that I will only eat foods that taste great to me I have only the testimonials that let me know that you think they taste great too.

I thought that you might like to know what I got up to when I got back to Bourne End this afternoon.

After unloading and packing everything away I joined my partner David and we went for a walk around the field behind us and saw many sky larks singing their little hearts out so high in the sky.

And we saw where the rabbits had created run through under the wire fencing that had been raised to keep them out and they just ran through under the fence as if it wasn't there.

When we got back, all windswept I made the most decadent and amazingly healthy meal drink and I am going to share the recipe with you so that you can benefit from it too.

1/3 bag of frozen Dark Sweet Cherries from Sainsburys defrosted (they reduce inflammation, improves pain relief and bone health)
2Tbs Kingfisher Coconut Milk organic (comes in tins so transfer what you don't use into a screw top container preferably glass.( great for weight loss, fights off disease, anti- bacterial and anti viral
A small handful of cashews (Great for heart, hair, skin, bones, nerves and weight loss)
A small handful of fresh coriander leaf (See Cilantro Chelation therapy)
1 tsp Cherry Active (Very high in anti oxidants which supports a healthy immune system)
1/2 cup Biona Tart Cherry pure juice
1 cup red grape juice
a dash of organic maple syrup

Blend everything together till there is no clattering from the cashewsPour out and enjoy.and I had a couple of slices of Double Chocolate Cherry Sheeze cake which also tasted divine and is beneficial on multiple levelsNO MORE DEPRIVATIONLearn to Live decadently and Thrive

I am so excited at having met such interested and eager fellow travellers today and I want to thank Max and the team at Natural Lifestyles for their successful campaign to spread the good news as is evident from the quality of the people who attended today.

I love the way in which every customer is made to feel special and offered a cup of herbal tea.

I feel very much in affinity with all at Natural Lifestyles

Big Hug and love and light

testimonial in bucketfulls

I have found you to be very astute in your summation of our discussions. You have the knack of getting to the root of any problem and you are able to turn it around so that one is able to view any negative aspects in a more positive light.

Your understanding of the law of attraction is impeccable and were I an eskimoe I'd probably buy snow from you!

Your positive attitude and sunny disposition are an asset aswell as your empathy towards others. I feel that you will definitely make a success of this chosen path. Self belief seems to be a pre-requisite and this you have in bucket fulls!

I wish you well!

testimonial for coaching

A Testimonial:

Ann has provided light through some dark ‘fears’ and helped me resolve long standing challenges simply and effectively.

From an energy of kind gentle guidance and a voice of calm deep wisdom, which has really been missing in my life.

Impartial, infinitely grounding and inspiring at the same time she has helped me chip away my resistance to change and conditioning which is no longer serving me to emerge to a more beautiful, better place.

I can’t empahsise just how grateful I am to have worked with her and experience her life coaching skills first hand. I thoroughly recommend her skills as a life coach using the law of attraction. Don’t hesitate in taking the step, the possibilities are endless!

Secrets of Achievement & Change (Special Inside)...

12/30/2011 15:49:00

Do you have something you want to change or achieve in your life? Maybe you'd like to...
start a business
find new love
get a new career (or a raise)
lose weight
or something else
     No matter what you'd like to change or achieve, the secrets to success are the same...
     #1: Get clear. As specifically as possible, decide what you want. The more clear you are on what you want to have in your life, the more likely you are to achieve it.
     #2: Get perspective. Most people don't tell anyone what they want or what they are struggling with and because of that they don't get an outside perspective.
     #3: Get support. Very few people (if any) achieve anything great alone. Sports stars have teammates and coaches. Be willing to ask the people in your life to support you.

2012 Excitement

12/28/2011 10:21:00

I often become inspired when I spend time in the company of my partner David. Up until recently I have found that when the inspiration starts to flow I have just let it pour out and as it is coming directly through from source I don't always hear what I have said and so it gets lost.

I did play with the idea of trying to record this as it was happening but as David was very anti being recorded this was fraught with problems and so it was never satisfactorally managed.

I took to rushing back into the bus, grabbing my note pad and writing it all down. That completely lost the passion that comes with the inspirational flow and I realised that I really needed to find some way of sharing my passion.

I have had many ideas; holding fireside gatherings and recording those conversations being one idea. But that again was fraught with other issues such as recording permissions and the inevitable breakdown of coherence that accompanies most human gatherings where alcohol is present. I personally no longer imbibe alcohol but as David pointed out I couldn't dictate that my guests should abstain.

So after many abortive attempts to record my inspirations I decided that recording them directly was the best way. My first attempt, which can be seen on You Tube is punctuated with my doubts that it was recording and because I was quite tired when I recorded it it is far too slow for most people to get anything from.

Then on Christmas evening I felt the up-whelling of another big and exciting inspiration. I suddenly felt the importance of being one of the people who had elected to be part of the generation to experience the most heralded year in the whole of human history 2012!

I became so excited and I needed to share my excitement with as many people as I could reach and so before speaking any part of it I went into the bus, picked up my Dictaphone and trusted that it would record. Then I opened up and spoke my excitement directly from source.

It recorded and when I played it back it made me feel excited and I knew that it would have that effect on others too as I have found that my passion is infectious and others easily benefit from it.

I loaded it into my laptop and it was saved in ITunes. Then I went on to the Mind Movies site and selected a series of images, typing onto each image additional inspirations. When I put my spoken recording onto it as the backing track and then watched it I was stunned by the way that the images and sounds linked so perfectly.

I knew then that the universal creative principle was creating this and so I am sharing it as widely as possible and trusting that the universal flow will help it to reach everyone that will benefit from experiencing it.

So here it is.

Wheat Free Mince Pies

12/19/2011 10:21:00

As you will have read on my website I have some special Christmas recipes coming out in the winter edition of Get Fresh.

Because of issues beyond their control that edition wont be out until later this week and so it will be too late for you to start making mince pies so I have decided to put the recipe on here for you.

Christmas is traditionally the time of year when we throw caution to the wind and indulge in foods and drinks that we know are going to lead to; serious bloating, a solid block of food down your middle and falling asleep shortly after lunch and family arguments! But it doesn’t have to be like that; you can indulge your decadent side, get the “traditional” affect and feel fabulous too! The recipes I am sharing with you are ones that I will be creating for the festive season for my family and friends and most of them prefer these to the usual suspects. So let us start off with a seasonal favourite;

Mincemeat Tartlets

IngredientsBase

·1 cup of almonds soaked for 8-12 hours

·1 cup of dried dates

·1 cup of cashews nuts – milled

· 2tsp cinnamon

· 50g of coconut butter melted

· 25g of cacao butter melted

Mincemeat

· Handful of goji berries – soaked

· 4 fresh dates chopped

· ½ cup of raisins

· ½ cup sultanas

· Mixed spices

· Tsp ground ginger

· Pinch nutmeg

· Pinch ground cloves

· 1 tsp sweet miso

· 1 orange juiced and grated peel

MethodBase

· Melt the cacao butter and the coconut butter separately as they have differing melting temperatures. The coconut butter will melt if stood in a container in a bowl of boiled water. The cacao butter will need to be grated to achieve this.

· Put the almonds into the food processor first until they are like breadcrumbs.

· Add the rest of the ingredients and process till everything is mixed well and moist

· Press mixture into silicon moulds as quickly as you can as the cacao butter solidifies very quickly and makes it difficult to work with.

· Place in the freezer whist you make the mincemeat.

Mincemeat

· In a large bowl mix all of the ingredients together thoroughly.

· Take the bases out of the freezer and using a spoon place some mincemeat into each pressing it into the base, return to the freezer for ½ an hour.

· Remove from freezer and press pies out of their cases, you will see that they have a lovely sheen on them and stand up beautifully on their own.

· You can store them in a container in the fridge till ready to eat. · Take them out of the fridge and allow them to warm to room temperature before serving (you can’t heat these as the shells will melt) These have such a great flavour and are so full of goodness that they are very satisfying without being heavy.
