Redesign a Doctor's Office

-
Today's blog post is to redesign a doctor's office. Well, I will just make a list of some ideas that I think would make the dream waiting room in a doctor's office:
  1. Spring water, coffee and teas
  2. A big bowl of fresh, organic bananas, oranges and apples
  3. Massive book shelf loaded with self help, wellness, nutritional, preventative, and "coffee table" type books
  4. Climate controlled rooms; one cool and one warmer
  5. Great music
  6. Aromatherapy vs toxic air fresheners
  7. Fresh flowers
  8. Proper lighting for reading
  9. Massive selection of good magazines for children, teens and adults
  10. A designated play area for children segregated from general waiting room
  11. Restrooms equipped with diaper changing tables
  12. Wi-Fi
  13. Non-toxic hand sanitizers
  14. Separate TV viewing area; patient controlled remote!
  15. Picture books for children
  16. Comfortable chairs
  17. Child sized furniture equipped with mess free coloring supplies like "Color Wonder"
  18. Umbrellas near the front door
Take a look at these dental offices.

 Now I call these the ultimate in dentistry!! Wish I could have worked in an office like these. (I am a registered dental hygienist and my father and brother are dentists).
Can't think of anything else so lets get to a recipe.

I know!!! Wouldn't that be great. I can think of some more things now that I have had more time--like a massage chair in the waiting room!

Seed Yogurt

The other day I came across an article, by Thomas Stearns Lee, NMD, which contained recipes for seed cheese and seed yogurt. His recipes call for Rejuvelac and sunflower seeds, but as usual I improvised and used things I had on hand and created the same end result!  I decided to make the savory Seed Yogurt to be used as a base in my salad dressings or sauces. It was incredibly easy and delicious.  ▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️▫️ Pumpkin Seed Yogurt By Elizabeth @rawlivingandlearning.blogspot.com 1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds (or raw sunflower seeds) 1/3 cup raw sesame seeds 8 ounces of filtered water 2 vegan probiotic capsules Pinch of Real Salt 1 tsp fresh lemon juice Soak the seeds for 6 hours.

Raw Vegan Spring Rolls

RAW VEGAN SPRING ROLLS By Elizabeth www.rawlivingandlearning.blogspot.com Yesterday was another fun day of creating raw, vegan recipes. I was determined to make an alternative to rice paper wrappers when making spring rolls. The texture of this raw, red cabbage is amazing! I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. It is a simple two step recipe to tenderize the red cabbage all the while preserving the essential enzymes and nutrients that raw cabbage possesses. The many health benefits of raw cabbage motivates me to always try and eat it uncooked. But sometimes I prefer it soft vs crunchy, and here is the perfect way to enjoy it.  The first step was to cut out the tough core at the bottom of the cabbage. I then cut about a third of one side off so I could more easily separate the cabbage leaves. Next I placed 7 cabbage leaves in a square glass dish and filled it with water. I then placed this dish in the very bottom of my Excalibur dehydrator.  On the top rack I

Simplifying the Concept of Proper Food Combining

Watch Dr. Clement from Hippocrates Health Institute discuss food combining in a very simple way. His explanation is the one that really stuck, I get confused by the fancy food combing charts out there. He gives you the nuts and bolts of proper combining. Enjoy! Please note that I am terrible at food combining. I eat things together that shouldn't go together, because they taste good together, with the exception of melons; I only eat melons alone!!! I cannot have them with anything else or I double over in pain and bloat. I am a work in progress and some day I will practice proper food combining. If you'd prefer to red about food combing, just look at this info I found at http://www.raw-food-health.net/Raw-Food-Combining.html Raw Food Combining: Your Options Your options for raw food combining fall into 11 categories based not on culinary classifications, but on the actual composition of the food. If you're eating well, though, there are only really eight c
