Excitement and pure glee bubbles inside as we anticipate our second series. Coming May 3, Food Bliss II begins with our first of six classes - Wooo Hooo! This series is focusing on food as medicine. We believe that everything we need to allow our bodies to heal and thrive are all around us in the form of food, whether it be veggies, fruits, nuts, seeds, herbs, grains or sea veggies.

This series we will have even more free prizes and fun give aways - yay!

So, check out our line up and sign up soon, as seats are limited!


May 3 - Allergen Awareness Join us for AA. Allergens are more than just ragweed or cat hair. It could be lurking in your favorite foods. Allergens are known to cause skin irritations, acne, bowel disorders, chronic fatigue and worse. Join us as we shed a light on common environmental, food and household allergens.

May 10 - The "C" Word No one wants to talk about it, but it’s a topic that needs to be addressed. 247/365 we’re bombarded by carcinogens. Prevention is the best strategy. By eating from the universal “farm”acy, you can provide your body the ability to heal itself and make it an un-hospitable host to cancer and other chronic diseases. It’s our birthright to be healthy!


May 17 - Economics of Well-being We’re busting this common myth. “It’s too expensive to eat healthy”. Grab your slow cooker, get ready to learn the basics of bulk cooking, prep tips, smart shopping and how to stretch your grocery dollar. We’re not talking Ramen Noodles, folks, you can eat healthy on budget and still enjoy full flavored satisfying food.


May 24 - Gluten Free Living – One out of 100 people in America have Celiac Disease and 97% don’t even know they have it. Free yourself from the affects of gluten. You may not even know that what you are consuming every day can cause depression, early osteoporosis, belly pooch syndrome and a host of bowel issues. Join us as we talk about the myriad of benefits of going gluten free. You never know how good you can feel until you try.

May 31 - Diabesity (Diabetes, Obesity and Heart Disease) – It’s not your fault. The standard American diet has failed us. Heart disease is the # 1 killer of women. We are now in unprecedented diabetes rates among our children. 66% of Americans are obese. The buck stops here! You can eat your way to better health and we can show you the way. It’s easy!

June 7 - Who you gonna call? – Stress Busters! - Stress is quite possibly the biggest epidemic of them all. In our fast paced crazy world, it’s almost impossible not to be anxious and stressed about money, job, family, career or how to work your new IPad. We are now more connected technically than ever before but disconnected from our wellbeing, earth and each other than ever before. Learn what foods can calm you down, help you sleep better and bring down inflammation.

Desserts, Great Digestions and Gratitude

Ahhhh, we are feeling very satisfied and grateful.  Our first Food Bliss Workshop Series has ended with a bang.  Our last two classes were full of amazing moments, delicious food and the collaboration of people in search of a vibrant health life.  Let's review:

Heavenly Desserts - the wonders of enjoying dessert without the use of disease causing white sugar, gluten or the use of extreme heat.  

We enjoyed Audrey's Mocchiato Cacao Ice Cream with Cookie Dough and Creamy Cacao Sauce, Audrey's Strawberry Almond Mylk Shake with Cashew Creme and Wendell's show stopping Pumpkin Crepe Pancakes with Raw Blueberry Compote and Tofu Creme Anglaise Sauce.  

Whew!  Ya.  Sounds good, doesn't it?

And last but certainly not least, was our Great Digestions class, which closed out the series.  We fermented up a storm with Chef Audrey's Spicy Korean Kimchi, Herbed Almond Cheeze and Wendell's Quinoa Burgers accompanied by delicious raw Tomato Sauce.

We are so grateful for the opportunity to offer this series to our community and spread the word on the importance of eating fresh, vibrant foods.  


We couldn't have done it without our many lovely assistants who volunteered their time and to our sponsors, Good Earth Natural Foods and Mother Nature's Sun.

We would also like to thank our numerous contributors as well who made it possible to offer free prizes for each class!  That's right folks, cool prizes in every class!

Thank you to: City Yoga, All People Yoga, Cleansing Waters, Hidden Pond Farms, Bee Free Bakery, Hurst Beans,  Indiana Living Green, Endangered Species Chocolate, Wildflower Ridge Honey Farm and Larry the water guy

If you missed this series, don't fret!  We are offering our second Food Bliss series in May.  Stay tuned for details.

We will also soon be offering the electronic version of Food Bliss Workshop Series 1, which will include the recipes and information from all six classes.  As soon as we have this electronic version ready, we will post details on this site.

Blissful Blessings to all!
