Corporate goes raw + clay house painting + cancema

I have been a little inactive with my blog these past few days: busy, busy - we are having our living room/kitchen painted with this amazing 100% clay paint. I love it, absolutely no fumes and you can tip the clean up water into your compost, plus we are preparing to do our biggest raw class to date. A corporate training for 100 managers for a major packaging manufacturer. This will be the first of 3 such trainings held across 3 states in 3 weeks! I am really impressed that a major corporation is willing to invest in the health and well-being of their people in this way! There is hope yet!!!
Here is a photo of my beloved Runi slaving over a warm dehydrator making flax/sunflower/buckwheat crackers for 330 people!

Back to houses and paint.

Our homes (especially new homes) are one of the most toxic environments we can live in. New carpets out gas volatile organic chemicals or, VOCs such as 4 -PC for up tp 12 months which give new carpets their new carpet odor. It is actually a by-product of latex used in the backing of many carpets. Other VOCs in carpeting nclude toluene, formaldehyde, acetone, dyes, and benzines while derivatives containing VOCs are, resistant coatings for stains, fire, mildew, fungus and pesticides. Nice!!!!

House paints are not any better...... "Heavy metals and other toxic chemicals are also often used in the manufacture of paints and finishes, or their colouring tints. These include chrome, mercury, cadmium, formaldehyde, preservatives, driers, fungicides and odour suppressants. A paint can be labelled zero or low VOC and still contain many of these other toxic chemicals because some VOC ratings only refer to compounds that contribute to external air pollution by the formation of low level ozone (smog), and not to other compounds that can be Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP's) or toxic substances"

This is why I am so excited about these wonderful Volvox clay paints. If you are interested in finding out how you can paint your house without poisoning yourself and the environment I highly recommend you get in touch with Deb at Painted Earth She is based in Yelgun near Byron Bay and will ship paint Australia wide. You can call her on 02 6680 5729 or visit her informative website. And while I think of it if you would like to hire a fantastic painter who loves using non-toxic paints call Pramad on 0488749709 - Here is a photo of Pramad at work on our ceiling looking very angelic.

The next photo is not so pretty. It is a close up of a skin cancer being eaten out by an amazing herbal concoction called Cancema. It is illegal to sell it to use on humans so I am trialling the "pet" version. The original Cancema people ended up in jail in the USA because their product actually works and the drug companies and authoritues don't like herbal remedies that work! Cancema actually targets cancerous cells and leaves healthy cells alone. I am impressed so far. For more info on Cancema and where to get it visit Elaine Hollingsworth's awesome website www.doctorsaredangerous.com

I am treating the wound with a mixture DMSO (liquid MSM), fresh aloevera and hydrogen peroxide. I will post more photos of the healing process over the next few weeks.

We will be away until next Thursday so I may not be able to make another blog post until we are back.

Until then all love peace and blessings to you!
