Real N Raw

A lot of people have been asking how much should I eat, when should I begin, how long should I fast and many other questions surrounding healing and in specific knowing what to do.  The core issue here is the lack of trust we have in our own healing ability and in knowing what is right for ourselves.  Through our education system and conditioning in general we have grown into the habit of not trusting our own intuition.  Our thoughts are our guide to knowing what is right for our own personal journey.  Yet we lack distinct trust in those thoughts.  For some reason we think we are wrong about knowing what to do in our own lives.  Sure it is great to hear opinions and seek expert advise in fields to enhance our understanding, but no one and I mean no one can understand you better than you.  Pealing off layers of conditions is hard work at times and we need to be ready to be able to cope with the changes that occur when we do so.  It is my rule number one, I know what is best for me given my circumstances at the time.

So when embarking upon a fast whether it be eating watermelon for 7 days or juicing or green smoothies, you will learn to understand that your body knows what it is doing and you will continue to grow the strength of understanding to listen to your own intuitive guidance.

Matthew’s journey of watermelon fasting was a huge insight.  He ate when he felt hungry and on some days he was just drinking water alone.  There is no prescription here.  Each individual has there own uniqueness.  Put aside the fear and leap into self healing knowing that you trust in your own process of understanding.  There were times with Matthew that I wanted to take him to hospital, he was so sick.  Days where I wondered if he was going to make it through.  But he helped me to realise that hospital for him was not an option.  All they would want to do would be tell him he was crazy, drive fear into his spirit and completely take away his strength and control of  his own life.  Don’t get me wrong, there are some great medical Dr’s out there, who help people in accidents and the like, but there is a huge myth being created surrounding disease that they believe to be a mystery, when clearly it is not.

I myself have been told many a time by unhealthy, overweight, sick looking people that eating raw food is crazy.  I find it ironic that I look and feel far better than them and yet they feel through their own arrogance that it is ok to tell me I am stupid, crazy or a freak.  So when someone else is projecting their fears and thoughts onto you, have the courage to listen to your own guidance and respond how you choose.

Gosh, how many people do you know have a health related issue.  Obesity, diabetes, aging (yes health related), Alzheimer’s, asthma, eczema, cancer, aids, leukemia, heart disease, blood pressure, mental illness, depression, aches, pains, anger problems, acne, period complaints oh the list goes on.  Yet a very small and I mean TINY portion of the people would want to associate this to the diet we are consuming.  Real N’ Raw has a great quote in it and that is “It is easier to change a man’s religion than it is to change his diet”.  Now well ain’t that the truth.  I think to start with we should look at the facts.  Don’t go changing anything just yet, put your ego aside, get out of your and everyone elses way and look at the facts.  Find the people who get results outside of pills, medication and the current mainstream health solutions.  People with any disease are starting to turn to alternatives such as naturopaths, osteopaths etc but out right refusal to look at the fundamental, because that would mean having to change what you eat.  It is ironic, I eat and comfort the disease I have with the very thing that has caused the disease in the first place.  Think about it, if you are sick to any degree, including aches and pains and you are eating and type of meat including fish, dairy, bread or any type of processed food then there you have your answer staring you in the face.  Well I may not be a medical dr but I hold a science degree and I know how to research, I also knew how to motivate my dying partner into changing his ways.

So if you are suffering from any form of disease, there is hope.  Turn to someone who understands raw foods and fasting, give me or Matty a call +64 9 5213039 and we will be happy to open ourselves to you.  We have lived through hideous disease, pain and suffering and we are only 35, luckily we now have our lives and sanity back, onwards and upwards!  Make friends with us on facebook also dana@animators-ink.co.nz or matt@animators-ink.co.nz  we are more than willing to help you on your journey.  Why?  Because we got the results we were after, we travelled far and wide to find people who had healed themselves of cancer and even people who had healed a severed spinal chord and is now walking again.  If anyone tells you there is no hope for your condition, tell them to have a nice day and never phone them back.  Turn your back and have the courage to find those who give you hope.

Matty’s biggest hurdle was letting go of disease, after so long living with it, it becomes your identity.  When you start to heal it is almost like you are so wide awake for the first time it can be quite a emotional ride.  But well worth the effort.  There is no food that tastes as good as being healthy feels.  Nor any drug recreational or medical that will provide the high that fasting and raw food provides.

By stepping into action, the process takes care of itself.  I often wondered how people became wealthy, healthy, bright and bubbly and now from creating this movie as an independent film, outside of any rules or regulations I know why.  It is about following your journey and not taking no for an answer.  You see so many people have dreams and often when they come up against a no, it stops us in our tracks.  However when that no comes, it can be seen as a time for contemplation and more strength and determination to make our dreams a 3D reality.  Who is in control of our life, well that would be each and every individual.  I feel so blessed after the last year and a half working on Real N’ Raw, it was not the destination, although that is a pretty cool accomplishment, it was the journey and what happened to me along the way.  I am now a totally different person.  I have faced so many old patterns from my childhood that kept saying no you cant do that or who do you think you are blah blah blah.  Well we are all the stars in our own lives and life the journey  is exactly that, the journey of understanding and amazement and shedding of any negative belief patterns that stop us in our magnificence.

Make your day the most magnificent ever because you are the one star in it!

Matthew “The Kid” Wilson

I lived with someone who was so terribly ill for many years.  We lived through each day with some hope that one day it would be OK.  That one day, there would be no more pain, suffering and all the emotional and physical burden that goes with that.  That person was the Director of Real N’ Raw.

Real N’ Raw is our story.  Real N’ Raw saved Matthew Wilson’s life.  Real N’ Raw saved my life.  Real N’ Raw if you choose to watch it can give you the information that can empower you to live your life to the fullest too.

I had no idea when I met him, that he was so sick.  Honestly I do not think most people realise how sick they actually are until it stares them in the face.  But Matthew did, he knew that if he did not change he would be dead soon.  It was the most frustrating thing I have ever come across.  Someone with an answer who struggled to get out of his own way and turn their life around.

I have my own opinion about why that is and it happens to be that these bodies are so resilient and continually finding homeostasis that how toxic and poisonous they really are is not seen as the body is built to strive to stay alive.  But Matthew knew.  I knew.  We all knew that the answer lied in actually having the motivation to do it.

I have listened and watch by as people die, waiting for miracles to happen to them as they wish cancer or whatever other disease it is they have away.  While the answer is staring us right in the face.  It is the strength and courage to stand up in face of what we have always been told and walk in the opposite direction.  The journey to do this is the most empowering you can do.  The journey that overrides culture, heritage, mums, dads and everything you have ever known.

I say why walk a path you know when the excitiment of jumping in the deep end and finding you can swim is the most exhilirating of them all.

Life has begun abound for us again.  Just as many systems are collapsing and the governments have decided to continue to tax us silly while supporting the industries that are like bullets to a gun.  Changing your diet to raw and having the strength to stand up and make a change in your own world defies everything I have ever known.
