I’ll begin posting regular articles to this blog beginning May 25. Thanks for visiting.

I expect to write about a variety of approaches to natural health. Of course, "natural" means different things to different people, which is something that I’ll explore.

What does it mean to you? You can respond to that question as a comment.

Based on questions I’ve asked of potential readers and my own primary interests, I’ve decided to begin this blog with posts mainly about raw foods. I believe that will provide the best foundation for related topics. My first post after this one will be My Raw Food Story.

When focusing on health, specific foods or other substances or practices can be important. However, I believe the consciousness with which you make a choice is even more powerful than the final decision itself. When you make a choice in desperation, you’re more likely to experience desperate results. Sometimes it’s just a matter of getting into a slightly better state of consciousness or improved mental attitude before you decide so that more satisfying results occur.

So this blog is also about making choices. It’s not my style to tell people what to do. I’ll make suggestions and trust you will take responsibility to make your own choice.

I have a special interest in raw, living foods. I believe they are extremely helpful in keeping people healthy and can also reverse adverse health conditions. Of course, the results of a lifetime of unhealthy choices need time to reverse themselves, so be gentle with your body and yourself.

If you have an adverse health condition, I’ll try to provide some information, insights, and products to help you to get your life back on track. However, I am health-oriented, not illness-oriented. I can suggest, encourage, and lead you to resources that promote health and well being. I cannot, however, diagnose or treat, as I am not a licensed practitioner.

I wish you health. May all your choices about health be as joyful as possible.

Joyfully,

B. Joy Preston
