Let's try this again..........


As I find myself back at Hippocrates, I really feel the need to try to share with you and myself, this incredible journey called health and healing. I wept with gratitude for the opportunity to be here again when I sat down to my wonderful, big, living, green, sprout salad for lunch after being on the road for 3 days and not able to find even a decent green salad, let alone anything organic and so alive. It really was challenging, especially after my cooler gave up on my first day out just as the temperature began to get into the 30s again. The drive here was absolutely great. Smooth, relaxing, brilliant weather and each day I found myself ready to stop after about 8 hours and that always put me right where I had planned and booked to be. God definitely had a big hand in this trip as I had really guesstimated all of it and it wouldn't have turned out so well if it were just me :-). I pulled into the Marriott in Palm Beach Shores (Singer Island) around noon today and my room wasn't ready so I figured I would check out my daily trip to Hippocrates by going over there for lunch. It will be about 20 minutes each way and I think even in rush hour shouldn't be too bad. We shall see on that. I can't help but be positive about everything as there has been absolutely nothing to diminish my optimism. Perhaps my optimism is why it all has gone so well?...lol....funny how that works, right? The resort is also gorgeous. I will try to upload a picture of the view from my balcony but again, as I've said to many of you, my coming back to Hippocrates for the Educator course seemed meant to be when I was able to book my timeshare points for the entire ten weeks!! To have it be one of the nicest places I have ever stayed simply makes it even more so. Everywhere I turn the people are helpful, friendly and gracious and it's been that way the whole way down here.

Speaking of the whole way down here, I saw more stylin' Chevys on the road on the way here than I'd ever seen anywhere. When did GM start making these very cool-looking cars? Hardly saw a Ford which I found interesting and once into NC and continuing south, lots of them there expensive imports :-). But seriously, the Chevys were very cool. Then, I remembered that the American taxpayers are 60% shareholders in GM. All of a sudden they looked smarter than I'd given most of them credit for back during the 2nd election of Dubya...They'd been redeemed when Obama got elected but then the Tea Party had me doubting again. Now, I'm just not so sure :-). We Canadians are shareholders in GM, too, remember. Best we all get to ordering those new Chevys!

I am hoping that this adventure at Hippocrates allows more time for blogging and I am surely going to give it my best. I am looking forward to an intensely personal journey into holistic health where my emotional, physical and spiritual aspects will all come together in my deeper exploration of this wonderful, healing, living foods lifestyle. I look forward to sharing it with any who would like to partake. Take care, be well and we'll talk soon. xoxo
