Auction Item Description: 5-Day Health Retreat: Gall Bladder/Liver Flush Cleanse
Your passport to your very best health ever is with a clean liver, gall bladder and intestinal tract complex... as you are living, you are the liver!
You, the liver, are the sorcerer of the body, removing toxins from the blood and alchemically transforming it to essential bile which makes your food assimilate the nutrients and eliminate the residual out the back door. With less than excellent bile production, even the best food in the world can't make it in through the cell walls.
By removing toxicity, this process takes pressure off the heart, lungs, liver, eyes, joints and the tissues of the body. After The Annapurna Program, you will thank yourself for your new found level of health, we just lovingly record the effects. Please read on our homepage 'What Health Professionals say about The Annapurna Program'.
November of '07 We were featured in the prestigious November '07 Townsend Letter, The Examiner of Alternative Medicine professional journal for eradicating a 17 year duration of migraines with one gallbladder flush.
We agree with Dr. Sherry Rogers when she says, "It really doesn't matter what your doctor calls your condition, it's really all about toxicity." Dr. Christiane Northrup states, "Disease is congestion, Health is flow!"
The program includes Organic, Live, Vegan cuisine; colon hydrotherapy, individualized reflexology, yoga, Transformational Breathwork, and much more!
Even chemically sensitive people enjoy our environment because The Annapurna has been restored totally with environmentally friendly materials. Each room has its own lovely bathroom with shower. There is a beautiful steam and state-of-the-art far infrared sauna, also. Fair Market Value = $3,000

CREATING PERFECT HEALTH SYSTEM
Auction Item Description
#2:
The unconditionally-guaranteed
Creating Perfect Health System is a home-study program with
more than 15 hours of audio and video-taped live lectures
and seminars, and some written material. This program will
teach you everything you need to know to maximize health,
vitality, mental clarity, energy level, and to help you
easily and effortlessly achieve and maintain your optimal
weight.
The system is designed to give you all of the information
and motivation you need to optimize your physical, mental,
emotional, and spiritual health and well-being, regardless
of where you are starting from. Because these things are
inextricably linked, it’s virtually impossible to affect any
one of them without affecting the others.
The system brings you ground breaking and life-changing
information that is: 1) simple to understand and easy to
implement, 2) proven, and 3) common-sense.
In order to ensure that you learn and can then apply this
information, we utilize both repetition and the power of
different methods of learning. Research shows that
repetition is a powerful tool and that most of us need it to
really learn anything. It also shows that no matter what
your dominant, and therefore, preferred, way of learning is
(i.e. seeing, hearing, etc.), a combination of different
approaches insures the greatest comprehension and retention.
Or, to put it more simply, the more different approaches
used, the more we learn and remember.
The System
includes these materials:
1)
C.P.H. audio CDs (4-90 minutes)
2) Fasting: Nature's Cleanse CDs
3) Controversial Questions CDs
4) Maximizing Your Health DVD (1-132 min.)
5) Natural Way to Health DVD (2-120 min.)
6) Handbook for Vibrant Living - 8 Keys to Optimal Health
7) Articles and Writings
Creating Perfect Health seminar – 6 hours on 4 CDs. These
Cds cover all 8 keys to creating the highest level of
health. Taped live at the Tanglewood Wellness Center.
Maximizing your Health Lecture – 132 minutes on DVD. This
lecture was taped live in front of an audience of about 100
people in London, England. It covers diet and fasting and is
an excellent introduction to the subject matter. Fast-paced,
fun, informative; this is a good place to start.
Fasting: Nature’s Cleanse – 90-minute CD. This informative
and fun lecture was taped live in Portland, Oregon.
Controversial Questions: Looking to Nature for the Answers –
90-minute CD. Another great talk taped live in Portland,
Oregon.
The Essentials: 8 Keys to Optimal Health – 28 page booklet
which summarizes all 8 of the keys and makes a great
companion piece to the audio and video materials.
This
material is based on Loren’s 30+ years of studying and
synthesizing how the laws of nature and the human body
interact.
Loren presents the material in a way that it’s fun and easy
to understand. Best of all, if you implement it, you are

Judith Laxer

Originally from New York, Judith moved west in 1989. She took her lifelong interest and study in Spirituality and Psychic Phenomena and began the professional transition from a career in the Performing Arts to one in Metaphysics.
Judith on Tarot: "Tarot readings are amazing and fun! Consulting the Oracle of Tarot is a great way to reach into the realms of Spirit for meaningful, personal information and insight. The symbols and pictures on the cards open up my intuition, empathy and clairvoyance. My Tarot readings will help you find answers to your most perplexing questions and provide guidance for your most challenging issues. I use Tarot in a very practical way as well. Your questions can be as esoteric as "what is my purpose here in this life?" or as practical as "should I buy that car on Friday?". I believe that we create our reality, and the information given in a Psychic Tarot reading is a reflection of what is going on in the moment. If we see something unpleasant coming up in the future, we can change our course of action and change the outcome. I can counsel and guide you to your best course of action."

Jeff
Rogers, The Naughty Vegan
Author of Vice Cream
About
Jeff:
In early 1999,
with a passion to promote a plant-based diet, Jeff and his
friend Bill Amey created the SoyStache project and created
an online presence with SoyStache.com
(and CelebritiesForHealth.com)
The site offers a lot of information to help people in their
decision to move to a plant-based diet. The site offers,
perhaps, the most extensive "links" page to help
people find more information on the web. The site also helps
people connect with vegetarian groups in their area. In 1999
Jeff was guided to move to Seattle. In this transition he
decided that once in Seattle and once he found a new job he
would buy an "ice cream" maker and begin making
the creations he had in his mind. He moved, he found a job,
he bought the "ice cream" maker and began his
journey as a creator of the richest vegan "ice
cream" around. He had never come across any other
cashew-based vegan deserts, and knew cashew-based deserts
needed to be available because of their rich texture and
flavor. Soon after moving to Seattle, Jeff joined up with
EarthSave
Seattle becoming a member and a key volunteer of the group,
doing his part to help the group educate people about a
plant-based diet.
FOUR-LAYER RAW VEGAN CHOCOLATE AMARETTO TORTE
Auction Item Description #1: 
One
gourmet raw vegan cacao (chocolate) 4-layer torte with the
following premium ingredients: soaked raw organic almonds,
raw organic dates, raw organic cacao nibs, freshly pressed
organic coconut cream and coconut milk (from mature coconuts
and young coconut water), and organic apricot kernels (for a
hint of amaretto flavor). All ingredients are raw and
the torte layers have been dehydrated at 115 degrees, so it
is a raw torte (no baking), preserving important nutrients.
The torte is approximately 7 1/2" wide, 3 1/2 - 3 3/4" tall, and about 6.5 pounds (it is quite dense and very rich... a chocolate lover's dream!) The ingredients alone cost more than most cakes. It takes many hours over several days to create this wonderful torte. It can last quite a while in the freezer, so invest in many weeks of treats for yourself or win it for a celebration with friends! Fair Market Value: $140

Matt Monarch,
The Raw Food World
Oakview, CA
Matt
Monarch dove head-first into a 100% raw vegan lifestyle
after reading Dr Norman Walker's classic raw food book
'Become Younger'. His initial detox and weight loss
concerned family and friends, but he was fascinated with
this new way of living and persisted. Matt's interest led
him to thoroughly research the many different ideologies in
the raw movement and delve into his own experiments. He was
most impressed by the work of raw food pioneer and 50 year
nutritionist Dr Fred Bisci, PhD. After meeting at a raw food
festival in Oregon, Matt and Fred went on to forge a strong
friendship together.
After five years of eating a 100% raw food diet, Matt was inspired to write a book called Raw Spirit. He wanted to share information that he thought needed to be out there, reflecting in particular on some of the physical challenges of going raw, along with the amazing shifts he experienced on the spiritual level with this lifestyle. Raw Spirit has become one of the best-selling raw books available: people appreciate Matt's honest approach and his willingness to discuss aspects of being raw that often go unmentioned. He is committed to the raw lifestyle and passionate about spreading this message of health to others.
Matt is currently the owner of three different health-promoting websites: www.LivingNutritionals.com, www.rawveganbooks.com, www.rawspirit.org

amazing, why aren't we living decades longer than cooked
food eaters? Raw Success is the
key to longevity on a 100% raw vegan diet. With information

BOOK: CELEBRATING OUR RAW NATURE
"CELEBRATING
OUR RAW NATURE" is a guide for transitioning
to a plant-based, living foods diet. I (Dorit)
wrote this book after working for many years
with clients and students who did not have any
desire to give up their Standard American Diet
but were suffering from malaise, depression,
mood swings, challenges overcoming excessive
addictive patterns and for all the people who
came to me, demanding "I want to lose weight".
Explaining to them that their attention ought to
be on losing toxins rather than a number on the
scale was not what they wanted to hear. After
much frustration, I came up with recipes that
they would absolutely love and worked on
changing their relationship with food rather
than their image of the "ideal weight" The
results were so tremendous, that most of them
have pushed, encouraged and supported me in
writing this book.

Our Raw Nature.

RAW REFORM BOOKS AND CONSULTATION PACKAGE
Angela Stokes, RawReform
My story: Back in 2002, I was 23 years old,
about 19 stone (266lbs/120kg), UK dress size
26-28 and lost in miserable cycles of a
non-existent love-life, uncontrollable
overeating and complete denial. My pride stopped
me discussing my weight with even my closest
friends and if anyone tried to broach the
subject with me, I strongly resented them for
'interfering'.
My weight had steadily increased since my
thyroid gland went under-active aged 11.
By 16, I was 16 stone (224lbs/101kg) and my
weight increased with my age, a stone a year,
until by age 21, at my university graduation in
2000, I was 21 stone (294lbs/133kg). That was
the heaviest I reached and when my health began
to suffer so much that I thought I had
diabetes, I knew
this couldn't continue.
Two summers later I was introduced to the idea
that revolutionised my life. A friend lent me
'The Raw Family' by the Boutenkos - a
testimonial book about eating mainly or only
raw foods for
optimum health. I was utterly absorbed - I'd
never been interested in diets, health fads or
slimming aids and suddenly it seemed the right
answer was in my hands. I began the very next
day and the improvements in my health over the
next weeks were astonishing. You could almost
see the weight burn off me - I'll never forget
seeing my collar bone again for the first time
in years; my skin and hair quality improved
dramatically, my energy soared and I was filled
with vitality and a
new hunger - for real life.
Within just a month of going raw, I had my first boyfriend in over 5 years - I was thrilled and increasingly inspired and dedicated to my new lifestyle. I found that as I became less of myself physically, I became more of myself as a whole person. I began to open up in ways that I hadn't found possible before, allowing truth, honesty and trust to develop. I had been locked up in that body for so long and now the real me was appearing and generating much interest, especially from men. ;)
It's been over five years since I started eating raw and I'm happier than I've ever been - I'm now UK dress size 10, can wear whatever clothes I like, eat delicious raw food daily and take great pleasure in treating myself well.
I will always bear the scars of my experiences - physically, my skin is marked and emotionally and spiritually I experienced great depths of loneliness, depression and insecurity that take time to heal. However, the process has been an extraordinary learning experience and I would not wish to change what I've been through to become the woman I am today.

She uses hands-on healing techniques combined with client-interactive feedback to help facilitate emotional and physical healing, spiritual and personal growth, and increased mental awareness and well-being.
INTUITIVE ENERGY HEALING SESSION
Energetic Healing is a dynamic process in which the "healer" facilitates, through channeling, increased potential access to the universal and earth energies all around us, and helps direct these energies to the areas of the body where it is most needed. This involves an interactive process of receiving feedback from the client about what they want to work on. Everyone can benefit from this type of work, because throughout our lives we have picked up subconscious patterning that no longer serves us, and which can only be redirected toward healthier channels through increased interactive awareness. Receiving energy work is often an exciting process of revelation, through which deep healing can take place in a short time. Most clients leave feeling relaxed, refreshed, and with new ideas to reflect on. It can, however, trigger deep emotional processes which require additional support, so please be sure that you have access to the care and community you may need.
Auction Item Description #1: One hour of intuitive energy-healing. Gift certificate expires on 03/01/2009. Fair Market Value = $90
