Special Guest Teleseminar: Dave Klein on Crohns, Colitis and Bowel Health

I’ve had more than a few emails, phone calls and cries for help this week from people who are suffering from leaky gut and compromised bowel function. We’ve had all kinds of different people on this blog and there’s one in particular that I’ve been meaning to have join us and just hadn’t yet made it happen.

Dr. Dave Klein, !

He’s friendly, he’s playful, and he’s a guy that walks his talk. He’s also the author of Self-Healing Colitis and Crohns. While you can read his story here (and I highly suggest you do so) I wanted to include a bit of a blurb from his bio below.

Dave’s a fruitarian, so all you dehydrating divas out there, get ready to put the volume up on your headset. Dave’s simple approach to health has inspired thousands to turn their lives around and that’s why he’s joining me on Thursday for an inspirational teleseminar where I ask him for the juicy details about the kind of lifestyle that’s worked best for him and why!

• What does he eat, what does he do to maintain his good health?
• What are the things that cause him and others he counsels difficulty?
• Why all the contradiction out there when it comes to the raw food diet and health?
• What about colonics? Is he for or against them, and why?
• What other things, besides changing our foods, will make a bit impact on our health or assist people in overcoming these conditions?

You’re welcome to join us for this call, in fact, you’re welcome to ask him your questions, too! Just send in the questions ahead of time and I’ll do my best to get them answered on the call. You can also send in your questions while you listen to the call LIVE on Thursday.

I HIGHLY recommend you bring a pen and take notes! The rate of health crises related to colon health is higher than ever. Colonic irrigation and enemas are not everyone’s cup of tea. Let’s hear what’s worked for Dave with the hope that it will inspire you on your own path to improved wellness to examine how sometimes the simplest solutions are also the most effective.

Enjoy and I look forward to speaking with you on Thursday.

What Do Superheros Really Look Like?

Yesterday the rain was pelting hard and cold and the kids and I had a long way to go to get home on bicycle. It was the kind of night where you really feel like you’re braving the elements–banding together like warriors to overcome the odds. It took real determination and courage to keep walking, keep pedaling, keep pushing for the finish line when their tired bodies had already had a very big day.

It’s amazing how responsible a mother is for the general well-being of her group.

In situations like the one last night, where my kids were tired, cold, wet and wanted to go home (but still had 40 minutes of tough pedaling to do) I realize that the ONLY way we’re going to make it through the ordeal is if I keep a positive attitude.

I would tell them again and again how brave they were–how strong and courageous. If I gave up even a little bit myself, because I was tired, impatient or just frustrated, I could feel their courage waning. I could feel the elements and fatigue moving in on them faster than I could lift them up.

And so I persisted by validating them until I was hoarse.

“You can do it!”

“You’re amazing!”

“You’re so strong, so courageous! Look at you go!”

These should be uttered as part of every Mother’s Code of Honor. Some days I think that if we only said words like these, it would be enough to get them through the day. Put your attention on the things you want to grow. Lay off the corrections and criticisms that slow them down and cause them to lose hope and confidence.

They were AMAZING. True heros. Mika was limping a bit by the time we got home, and so Sebastian stepped up to the opportunity to help her by pushing her bike. Mika, who really didn’t need help, pretended that it was so much easier for her to push his bike and said how appreciative she was.

He beamed with pride.

Then I blissed out while they started telling each other how much they loved each other. They hugged with helmets bumping while the rain kept pelting down on them.

I yelled out to the stars that I was the luckiest mom in the whole universe, and of course, they beamed again and just started helping each other even more. The compliments flowed faster than rain and offers of assistance pelted me harder, so I stopped noticing the cold.

It’s easy to get distracted by life.

We get pulled down by the drama, the bills the to do lists. But these are the moments that remind me life is what we make it. All manner of odds that stand against you cannot crush your determinism, your will to persist and to thrive.

Once we got inside, warmed up and dried off, Sebastian told me I was “beautiful like a raw food colored rainbow.”

Can it get better than that? I don’t think so.

Who knew that these would be the glory moments of my life? It’s not some sweaty beach day or starlit night sky that will stay etched in my mind as the pleasure moments that marked my days. It’s the gut-wrenching trials and tribulations of life as a superhero.

The moments that I predict will be the toughest… the moments where there’ a fine line to cross between giving up and “giving ‘er all I’ve got”… those have been my glory moments.

I cannot often find words to express my gratitude to the two remarkable people with whom I have had the privilege and honor of sharing these moments.

And so I come here, to bask in the serenity of being…

The serenity of “Mom”.
