Live Foods!

Introduction to Foods that are Healthy, Tasty,

Easy-to-prepare and Emotionally Satisfying

 

Bob Vaccaro Testimonial (see student testimonials below):

 

Though I have been mostly vegan for over 30 years, I have depended on an extensive yoga practice for the last 15 of those years to keep body stiffness at bay.  At the beginning of November, 2007, I completed Alissa Cohen’s 5-day intensive training for living on live foods and shifted from eating perhaps 50% raw plant-based foods to close to 100%.  I can hardly believe how much better I feel!   I am offering this introductory class out of my enthusiasm for how good this living on live foods can be for so much of what ails us and our planet.  

 

When we cook plant-based foods, we destroy their digestion-enhancing enzymes and many important vitamins and we dilute their naturally great tastes.  We over-eat easily on cooked (and processed) foods because our bodies hunger for the nutrition that is lost in the cooking.   It is much harder to over-eat live foods because our bodies know at a deep level when we have taken in sufficient nutrition.

 

The purpose of this 4-hour workshop is to introduce you to how easy it can be to prepare several live dishes that are also delicious and emotionally satisfying.  You will leave feeling the health benefits and wanting to expand your live foods intake.

 

I am offering this workshop on most second Saturdays of the month, from 1 – 5 pm, at my home at 411 Middle Street in Portsmouth (carriage house door at top of the driveway).  Classes will be small; pre-registration is required.  The fee for this workshop including food is $25, payable at the door.    To register, call or email me, Bob Vaccaro, at 603-430-4013, bob@oceanspirityoga.com.  Arrive hungry – prepared to sample the foods we prepare!
