Live Foods!
Introduction to Foods that are Healthy, Tasty,
Easy-to-prepare and Emotionally Satisfying
Bob Vaccaro Testimonial (see student testimonials over):
Though I have been mostly vegan for over 30 years, I have depended on an extensive yoga practice for the last 15 of those years to keep body stiffness at bay. In the Fall of November, 2007, I completed Alissa Cohen’s 5-day intensive training for living on live foods and shifted from eating perhaps 50% raw plant-based foods to close to 100%. I can hardly believe how much better I feel! I am offering this introductory class out of my enthusiasm for how good this living on live foods can be for so much of what ails us and our planet.
When we cook plant-based foods, we destroy their digestion-enhancing enzymes and many important vitamins and we dilute their naturally great tastes. We over-eat easily on cooked (and processed) foods because our bodies hunger for the nutrition that is lost in the cooking. It is much harder to over-eat live foods because our bodies know at a deep level when we have taken in sufficient nutrition.
The purpose of this 4-hour workshop is to introduce you to how easy it can be to prepare several live dishes that are also delicious and emotionally satisfying. You will leave feeling the health benefits and wanting to expand your live foods intake.
Betsy Anderson and I offer this workshop on most second Saturdays of the month, from noon - 4 pm, at my home at 411 Middle Street in Portsmouth (carriage house door at top of the driveway). The fee for this workshop including food is BY DONATION. Please pre-register by emailing me at bob@yogabydonation.org or by calling my home at 603-430-4013. Arrive hungry – prepared to sample the foods we prepare!

Didgeridoo Journeying
with Joseph Carringer on the 2d Tuesdays of the month,
7:00 - 8:00 pm (by Donation):
Relax, Connect and Enjoy the Healing, Ancient Sounds of the Aboriginal Didgeridoo
Journeying also known as Shamanic Journeying is a form of meditation, but is done with the intent of connecting with inner/outer guides and your subconscious. Many cultures have used journeying typically facilitated with a drumming or chanting, but it can also be facilitated with other instruments such as the didgeridoo. In these Journey/Meditations it is important to set intentions to connect with your highest positive guides and inner wisdom's. These Journey/Meditations can also be used to help people release negative energies and emotions that no longer serve a your life.
Joseph Carringer
Joseph has been playing an Australian Aboriginal didgeridoo for over a decade and a half, using it as a deep meditative tool in his personal shamanic journey as well as a therapeutic instrument for his clients. Joseph also incorporates a unique combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine philosophy, Ayurvedic Chakra philosophy and traditional Shamanic healing techniques into his sound therapy practice. Since the fall of 2005, Joseph has offered yearly classes for the Maine Medical CAM programs and the University of Southern Maine CAM programs and he continues to present at the University of New Hampshire and New England College.
