In 13 hours and ten minutes it will be the year 2011. Wow. What a number hey? I am in Australia where the earth is warm, and flooding, the cicadas are quite vocal outside mmm beautiful surroundings. That is what I love about Australia. The place where I was born and have spent many years. I say my home is where my heart is, now. And my heart is with my love, Andrew Roth who I married this year. We live in New York where I have been living since April this year. We work on films, in – on, I’m not sure which one is correct. Sounds like ‘in’ – better to work in something then to work on something...?...

Day 365! My challenge is complete!

Photo by Roxana Ireland!Thoughts: Creating The Earth diet was a declaration to my self that I would eat only foods that provided me with nutritional value provided naturally from the earth for 365 days.Why I started: To empower myself and others in choosing what we put in our mouths. I was certain that I wanted to be healthy and eat only healthy foods and then I would slip up and pig out on junk food. It happened so quickly and then all of a sudden I felt tired, sluggish and low. I was keeping the very thing I despised about myself alive by repeating this behaviour over and over again....

Day 363

Thoughts: Guilt has more calories than food. Previous to The Earth diet I had a habit of eating foods and feeling guilty about it after wards. Insane. I was certain that I wanted to be healthy and eat only healthy foods and then I would slip up and pig out on junk food. It happened so quickly and then all of a sudden I felt tired, sluggish and low. I was keeping the very thing I despised about myself alive by repeating this behaviour over and over again. This is an example of my mind having me, instead of me having it. The little voice would talk, I would identify with it and do the action it...

Day 360

Thoughts: Natural Calcium Bentonite Clay. I call it Healing Clay - a natural alternative for cleansing the skin and body :) The Earth diet incorporates all things that the earth naturally provides. It applies for the food you eat as well as what goes on your body. And if you can't eat it don't put it on your skin. Your body absorbs everything, so if you apply moisturizers, shampoos, face washes etc that have chemicals and preservatives you are ingesting those as well. I use clay for weekly face masks and cleansing my pores. You can also use it for acne, cellulite, detoxification, drawing out...
