• eloisaweesa: i guess that just goes to show that what works for one person doesn’t work for all, eh? If you have a lotion that you like and that doesn’t contain any toxins, I would say go ahead and use it if it works for you. I put my coconut oil in…

  in Anyone here dry brush twice a day or more? Comment by ungrateful
• I too am only at one brushing a day, also in the morning. I have stopped using soap and shampoo and my skin is WONDERFUL. Soft, smooth, no flaking, no ashy shins or elbows. I use coconut oil on hands and feet and around my eyes. That is my only cosm…

• I have always had bad skin, acne. It tends to clears up when I eat better (raw 80% or more) How long have you been raw? What are you eating? If you have acne it could be detox or a new allergy. Personally, I have sensitive skin and break out at the …

• I thank my stars (or whatever is in charge of that department) that I have an affinity with all foods and reactions are few, far between and mild to the point of not noticing. I am sure that will change with time if I keep eating raw foods, :) I hop…

  in Has anyone dried cranberries themselves? Comment by ungrateful
• I have been thinking about this a lot since you asked the question. I have been trying to soak and sprout all the seeds I can find around here and have dedicated a “sprouting cabinet”, lol. I’m reading the information on the sprout people’s site: ht…

  in yet another soaked seeds ??? Comment by ungrateful
• Well, I am new to this too. I only soak what I need and I haven’t dehydrated any after soaking, just add to the soup or salad or smoothie. I don’t see why you couldn’t use your blender to grind seeds if it works, it works. Good luck, I am sure you w…

• What do I have to do? Believe facts over fairy tales? I think I’m in. Annabelle, you are right. The less I harm the earth, the better I feel.

• That is a good idea, Zoe. You could make it as salty (or not salty) as you wanted it.

  in Painkillers? Comment by ungrateful
• trouble, isn’t it great? I went through my cupboards and threw out all the soaps, lotions and potions that I had. I now have a stick of toms of maine deodorant, bottle of dr bronner’s and a jar of coconut oil. Let freedom ring. :)

• Valeria, as far as the expense, I pay approx $15 for 15 ounce jar at my whole foods (whole paycheck). Not as expensive as, oh, say AVEENO at 9.99 for 5 oz. Not to mention that you don’t use nearly as much coco oil as lotion (which is mostly water an…

• Louloubelle, it’s the same oil for eating and moisturizing. Since I quit using soap and shampoo, I really don’t need to moisturize anymore and mostly do it for the massage. I love that my beauty regiment consists of dry brushing, comb my hair, wash …

• Bluedolfin: The Ground part is just that. Finding something on the ground. It’s all part of the Freegan ethic.

• As far as green goes, I use baby spinach, romaine, or baby greens, usually with basil or mint for better flavor. I prefer baby spinach, I think it has a better texture than lettuce or baby greens.
