What previous participants have said:

"Cindy really knows her stuff. I just finished, for the third time, her detox class (first webinar format–liked it). Each time, another piece becomes clearer thanks to her personal way of teaching. Lost 15lbs and a LOT of fat over 60 days, also started running again (20yrs since last time), made some necessary dietary changes. I'm wearing clothes that haven’t fit in years, feeling lighter and better by the day. I appreciate Cindy’s way of teaching nutrition very much!"  Vicki R

"There were so many firsts for me… This was the first time I could function off of my anti-depressant. The first time I’ve studied the effects of nutrition on my brain. The first time someone has listened to my particulars and had suggestions that actually worked. You are so fun and I enjoyed our class so much. Thank you for leading us.”  Shannon S

"I have been struggling with food allergies for years with stomach distension and cramping as a result, and have tried many different remedies with little to no result. Then I had the opportunity to participate in your Detox Program and for the first time in my life, experienced relief and healing of my stomach and intestinal tract. I would highly encourage anyone to take the opportunity to go through the program and heal their system and gain an incredible amount of knowledge in the process. Thank you Cindy for putting together such an in-depth educational program you made a huge difference in my life."  Michael B

Gluten Free Sweet Potato Brownies


Makes 15 brownies



While everyone else is posting pumpkin pie and stuffing recipes, I'm posting chocolate recipes!! This might seem strange at first, but when you understand the benefits of raw cacao and organic chocolate, you might change your mind.  Chocolate is one of the highest food sources of Magnesium, which many have called the magnificent mineral.  Magnesium has over 300 mechanisms in our bodies and has powerful natural relaxing properties and who doesn't need more of that as we step into the holiday season!

 3 small sweet potatoes (about 2 1/2  cups)
 20 medjool dates-pitted
 1 cup of almonds (ground until a course flour consistency)
 3/4 cup of buckwheat or brown rice flour 
 1/4 cup succanat or coconut sugar (brown sugar if you're in a pinch)
 ½  tsp Real Salt
 1/3 cup of raw cacao/or organic coco powder
 2 tsp vanilla extract
 ¼ cup of pure maple syrup
 20 drops Liquid Stevia
 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
 2-4 tablespoons lite coconut milk 

Start by pre-heating the oven to 350, then peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into small chunks and place into oven for about twenty minutes.  Once they are perfectly soft and beginning to fall apart, remove them and put them a food processor with the pitted dates – process until it forms a nice creamy mix.  Add all the remaining liquid ingredients (use just 2 T. of the coconut milk) and process.

Put the dry ingredients into a bowl, mix to blend.  Add the sweet potato mix and stir well. If the batter is too dry and the dry ingredients will not hold together, then add an additional 1-2 T. of coconut milk.

Pat mixture into a baking dish lined w/parchment paper and cook for about twenty minutes, until you can pierce with a fork and bring it out clean. Remove the tray and allow it to cool for about ten minutes – this is really important for time to stick together! Remove the brownies from the tray, wait another few minutes before cutting them into squares – then dig in and enjoy!

Aloha, a healthy lifestyle inspired brand has some more great healthy recipes over here https://aloha.com/mag/recipes

Something else to nurture yourself with during this season is a once a week nice hot epsom salt bath with lavender oil.  The epsom salts are full of magnesium that will help relax those aching muscles, sulfur to detox, and the lavender oil will sooth your mind. I hope you will gift yourself with a little bit of time to experience and enjoy this little slice of heaven.
