James learned about Natural Hygiene in his youth and became an ardent follower of Dr. Herbert M. Shelton, who defined and developed the science, laying down guidelines for food combining and fasting with an emphasis on raw, whole foods. James had his share of health challenges during childhood, including being born crippled and undergoing successful but invasive surgeries. He also had asthma and suffered a collapsed lung. He has been exploring the relationship between diet and health ever since he responded favorably to the whole foods vegan diet his doctor suggested for him when he was about 10 years old.

James was fortunate to be raised in the indigenous California lifestyle by his grandparents on the San Pasqual Indian reservation. They spoke the native Kumeyaay tongue & ate the traditional acorn mush, seeds, vegetables and fruit in season, and resisted the sugar, refined wheat and meat introduced by the invading cultures. Some of his other relatives, cousins, including an aunt, worked at Dr. Bernard Jensen’s health retreat in Escondido. Although Jensen was of interest to James he choose to follow a more complete natural hygiene program of Gerald Benesh, Herbert M. Shelton, et al. James prefers to call his understanding of natural hygiene, native hygiene instead, out of respect for the past.

James is licensed in conventional healthcare with a background in post grad music therapy @ Cal State Universities including Stanford University where he obtained a research grant and has worked as a medical technician for several decades. He reared four children, two home births he helped deliver & raised his children along the reservation on virgin terrain without municipal water or electricity as hygienically as possible.

This interview was done live, in the sunroom before a raw food potluck to which Jimi brough sapotes to everyone’s delight.

Enjoy!


 Rocannon MacGregor and Revvell Revati

As I say in my introduction, if it weren’t for this man, I’d not be doing what I’m doing today. There was a fair chance, I’d not even be alive today. I set up this interview to introduce you to someone who’s not very well-known yet should be. I was lucky to find him in 1986 at a health convention I’d been attending for about 9 years. He’d been there every time yet, as they say, "… when the student is ready…"

I wasn’t sure I was ready. There were times when I had to be pulled kicking and screaming into life yet, he persisted in seeing more in me than I saw in myself. He persisted in supporting me when others wouldn’t and I couldn’t. He gave me the foundation to find out who I was and to be me.

This is the first interview I’ll do with my teacher of 23 years, Rocannon MacGregor.

Enjoy! Revvell

 


"Kill your television and make something, think something, BE something instead!"

After reading the words above, I KNEW I was going to like Tonya Kay. Her profile says: 25 year vegetarian, 15 year vegan, and 6 years raw… which makes her 46… or so I asked during our interview. She’s got an amazing sense of humor, an infectious laugh and a great love for life. In this interview we talk about how she chose life over depression, birth control, how she cares for elephants and many other things including her latest leading role.

Enjoy!

Another interesting and informative program. In this show Alissa updates everyone on the dehydrator and cookbook AND talks about how her class assisted one almost-homeless classmate to be all that she can be. She shows how it’s really not JUST about the food. We chat about upper limits, molestation, drugs and celebrating one’s potential. We also talk about how people go into the training afraid to speak up and leaving having created a speech about their experiences during the training. This episode brought tears to my eyes with all the good that’s happening. Enjoy!
