Health Spot Topic: The Holistic Approach to Corona Virus
Presented by Akote Adirah (a.k.a. Shona Williams) 28Mar20

This week we reviewed the holistic value of meditation. I facilitated a meditation session focusing on breathing and being present. Mediation is medically proven to have signficant effect on a number of diseases. I talked about the value of having a whole food, plant-based diet and including Vitamin C, D and herbs like Garlic, containing allicin, in the daily regimen. We also reviewed the importance of citrus rinds which many people throw out. You can actually cut up the rind and use for cleaning surfaces like the sinks and counters. The rinds may even be minced and sprinkled in the salads and desserts to get that extra boost of Vitamin C.

Vitamin D is another nutrient that experts say is essential in the battle against the Corona Virus outbreak. Taking a walk, reading a book or exercising in the sun allows you to soak up a hefty dose of Vit D absolutely FREE.

It is imperative that you brace yourself to face this virus. You can’t hide from germs. They exist everywhere and they are not sure exactly how they are spreading. The following are ways to keep yourself healthy:

-Get out in the sun (observe social distancing)
-Keep you skin peelings on ginger, turmeric, potatoes, carrots, etc
-Drink hot lemon water
-Utilize organic citrus rinds in food and cleaning
-Meditate at least 20 min daily
-Prepare fresh food
-Avoid processed food fake food, fast food and food that promote inflammatory response
-Join us for ‘Build Your Own Garden’ April 26th – start your herb garden now 🙂

The body is an amazing machine and can absolutely protect itself against any disease given the proper food intake.

During the quarentine, take advantage of the time to find a creative platform to express your Yah-given talent. This is a stress reliever and not only benefits You but Others who are touched by your creative expressions. Write, Dance, Build, Design, CREATE!!! So let it be written…

Be well and stay protected! Stay informed by visiting the official COVID 19 website https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html

Shalom v’Or,

Today I am reaching out to inspire my network to start to learn about the power of food and how to approach your meals with a new mind set! This is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and what a wonderful way to inspire and motivate women to prepare their meals with a healthier and strategically scientific approach to combat cancer.

People normally don’t look at food as science. But why not? The body is based on science. It is a wonderful and dynamic machine that is set on automatic from your CONCEPTION!! So now, why dont we look at the food as fuel to keep that machine running effectively and efficiently as it was designed??? It’s like taking care of your car. You lube it, you wash it, you send it in for inspection, you get it detailed, you do all this with the highest quality products and services in mind because you want it to perform at it’s maximum level. Well, that same idea holds true for your body and the foods you put into it. We are captains of our own ship. We have to decide what is right and what is wrong for our bodies. I think this book club will help in that decision-making process.

From July 17th through the end of August 2019 I interviewed a host of educators, doctors, nutritionist and cancer survivors to power up my coaching business and start a community that I can serve. The experts that I interviewed not only shared their knowledge about cancer, but also their personal testimonies and experience with the disease. I wanted to get people to understand that there are options to overcome this challenge. We as a people need to know ALL the options, and if food is one of them, I can certainly open your mind to that redemptive approach because I LOVE FOOD! I also love the science of food and how it can recalibrate your body systems. So, I asked these notable experts to allow me an interview that I could share with my community. I asked them questions pertaining to their expertise and asked them to elaborate for the sake of the listeners. This was all done systematically so people could log in and watch the interview. When I say testimonies can change people’s perspectives, I mean it! Living testimonials, cancer survivors, very powerful!

The series can be purchased at http://www.cancerbegoneseries/purchase

As a follow up, I wanted to maintain momentum with this new found knowledge and build upon it by exploring the information these educators offer us to maintain a healthy diet and a positive spirit. Our first book is by NY Times Best Selling Author, Joel Fuhrman, M.D. Fast Food Genocide. With the rush of our daily lives, it is important to slow down when it comes to food and be very circumspect in our food choices, ESPECIALLY for cancer patients. This book provides not only information about the contaminated foods we eat, but studies and recipes and meal plans that can get you started right away! Like NOW! You are that important that everything in life can wait for 15 min to order this book and jump on board this food redemption plan! It starts now. It starts with opening your mind to realities of food that you never knew.

I will be sharing some new material very very soon!

Until then, choose wisely and protect yourself from the inside out…

EAT TO LIVE!!

I am very excited to share my write up following my presentation this shabbat! We have entered into the high holy season and this information is vital to sustaining spiritual as well as physical wellness.

Today we talked about putting the YAH minded food on the table for Succoth. Bring forth the fruit of the earth. Nurture it. Present it before YAH on your harvest festival and bless The Name! The foods that help to heal you are not found in a box or a bag… they are harvested directly from the earth with life and essential components ready to rebuild and fortify your body. Have items on your menu that are harvested locally and with a reasonable distance from where you live. They will contain necessary active components that help to protect you against disease prominent in your area. Eat the greens. Eat the squash. Eat the power of the earth and all she has to offer you. She will nurture you and replenish your soul.
Succoth menu should include your local harvest such as:

Pumpkin
Acorn squash
Butternut squash
Broccoli
Cabbage
Cauliflower
Sweet potato
Kale
Collards
Okra
String beans
Turnips
Parsnips
Beets

Fill your plate again and again with these foods. Your meats also should be selected and prepared with care. So much disease is settled in the meat. Soak it and wash it well. Consider eating less meat and more leafy greens. Take it from a vegan, you can absolutely enjoy life with no meat in your diet. There hundreds of delicious alternatives. My vegan page is a great resource http://www.facebook.com/VeganPlatePlease

We discussed the pumpkin and kale being high in iron. Those people with iron deficiencies need to hear the sister’s testimony about overcoming her anemia just by eating more of these iron-rich foods. Listen to her testimony at http://www.facetheland.com. Change happens when you have faith enough to move in the righteous direction. We talked about putting your faith in YAH, allowing HIS light to shine in you and being a reflection of The Eternal. Allowing that small voice to guide you and mold you to restore you and bring clarity in the darkness will change your life. We talked about how lessons of our forefather, Moshe, allowed us to see how maintaining a clear mind and focus keeps us in alignment with the will of YAH, The Eternal. Foods offered today contain modifiers, preservatives, sugar, salt, enhancers, fillers and all kinds of contaminants that will destroy your system and your spirit. Put wholefoods on the menu and prepare them with love and righteousness.

What’s in Season for October?

Heyyy!

I’m feeling super fantastic right now! My Cancer, Be Gone series was a hit, I’ve completed a wonderful detox journey and learned delicious recipes that help get the body aligned with the proper nutrients to fight for itself! We don’t need all this toxic junk they put into these medications! They will put you in a stretcher and wheel you to the OR in a minute! And you PAY good money for that!

But what if I told you there was a therapy that would change your life and establish health and wellness and align your systems to engage the most powerful system on the planet! The immune system is a dynamic machine that quickly attacks and annihilates the offenders attacking the body. We tend to fall short of giving those powerful warrior fighters what they need to do their job. Nutrients are extremely important. The source of your nutrients is extremely important. The power is predicated upon the food sources YOU choose.

Pills are not food. The world doesn’t revolve around pharmaceuticals. Quiet as it’s kept, whole foods which are organic and non GMO, are your best source of nutrients hands DOWN! The Eternal has designed them and there is no mistake or recall in any of creation! HalleluYAH

Contact me if you want a program designed for your particular need. I will be happy to be your coach. I’m here to serve you. Also the Cancer, Be Gone series is available for purchase. You have access to some if the greatest minds in nutrition and testimonies from cancer survivors to prove it. If you want a copy sign up at http://www.cancerbegoneseries.com so that you can become a part of my community and start building your knowledge base. Because its not about Cancer, it’s about WELLNESS! Let’s turn this around so we can see it eliminated for good!

Bless up!

Hey!!! I’m so excited we are moving to the final leg of our Cleanse!! Water is so essential in our lives. .. to our health and wellness, to the internal and the external. Lots of people dwell on cleaning the water you drink, but the water you wash your body with is just as important. The water you brush your teeth with and spit out, YES! That’s just as important to your health. The water you wash your clothes in or wash your cups, utensils, pits and pans with, the water you mix in with your mouthwash, YES!

WATER is essential. It’s a major part of our biochemical make up. If we are not careful, we will poison ourselves. Fluoride is incorporated into our water. Poison. Chlorine is incorporated into our water. Poison. Hazardous chemicals used to clean our water are incorporated into our water. Poison. We mix our babies milk powder with this water. Poison. We bathe ourselves in this water. Poison. Poison. Poison. But water has to be cleaned and purified to be used right? YES! But the next step is for US. We must get filters and purifiers on not only our sinks but our showers. Filters for drinking water contained in the proper Plastic to be sure no BPAs are leching into it.

Also, as for our babes… MOTHER’S MILK IS MADE FOR BABIES. Cows milk powders are the absolute and simply LAST RESORT. The contamination and risk is unnecessary in most cases. The cow can’t feed it’s own baby because our demand for its milk is overwhelming! The goodness of Mothers Milk is astounding! If you are a new mother, I encourage you to review the contaminants in the water you use to prep your bottled milk now. I encourage you to talk to your doctors, nurses, counselors… and request information about the health benefits of feeding your baby your own milk and how you can do this easily at home, in the night and wee hours of the morning 🙂

This week is our Water challenge and we’re coming up on a close of the WATER CLEANSE. We have been chugging away since last week! You can always jump on board and do it yourself for the last few days with us at Vegan Plate Please on Facebook. Please ‘Like’ the page and scroll through to get caught up so you can continue on your own path. You will then see my posts in your newsfeed and notifications.
