Okay, so it's been what more than two freaking weeks..two freaking weeks that I have gracefully thrived even without a phone. I mean, oh my gosh, it made me realise how basic our needs could be, really! like really..
It's just that I terribly, terribly miss creating all these content, sharing love photos of my Raw Beauty Smoothie Love Bowls especially now that I have experimented with so much delicious and yes, truly nourishing combinations! I'm super inlove with berries as of the moment, really! Strawberries and blueberries, most especially! Love them blended with soymilk,frozen bananas, a heaping(haha!) teaspoon of Peanut Butter and lotsa ice!!! I've also experimented with super refreshing citrus based smoothies with orange juice as its base, replacing my usual nut milk (soy/ coconut/ almond milk) varieties and I'm loving it!!!
I know, it would be more awesome to have pictures accompanying this right? Well, I would have to work with what I have now.
Just a few more days! I truly can't wait to literally upgrade as I'm getting a new phone and yes finally, finally share so much love for health, happiness, art, fitness and generally life with You.
Thus, in the past 2 weeks, I have decided to channel my creative energies into other things. And thus, it led me here. In this space..
I have long planned to share what, how, why and yes, the direction that which I would love to take with one of The Raw Beauty Project Philippines' creative undertaking + Our Love Journals. :)
We all love stories, even as a child and I believe that this is something that everyone can relate to as some point in their lives. If I can only write this in a Journal and it automatically transfers to a blogpost, that would be freaking awesome, really!
I love to write, whether that be just notes, random thoughts, goals, dreams, plans, etc. and ofcourse, as young lady back then, I love to surround myself with inspiring, beautiful and empowering things. So I would always look for journals that has creative, colorful and uplifting messages with it. This started way back in highschool and I just came to a point when I would enter a bookstore, and would not find anything that totally resonates with how I wish to feel while manifesting and creating a beautiful, healthy & empowered life.
This was also a period in my life when unexplainable bursts of creativity rush through and within my soul as I've started painting the walls inside our humble abode in the province..I even had a full time job at Philippine Tatler back then and would just start painting at night to entertain myself. And it just happened..i honestly could not remember exactly how, the thought of getting blank journals and painting them myself just hit me and I started loving the whole process...
And in the process as well, I was only eating fruits..talk about mangoes,avocadoes,bananas kiwis oranges for breakfast, lunch and cause it's all Raw, i would just have a Love Juice for dinner..and somehow..while I was writing, inspiration hit and I came up with The Raw Beauty Project and all this tons of ideas that mainly focuses on Arts & Creativity for Women Empowerment, that blends my love for Health, Wellness and Fitness as well through promoting a Fully Raw Lifestyle, A Raw Beauty LIfestyle, as would have You. I've initially thought of it as a RAWVOLUTION + bringing the benefits of not just living and mindfully eating an abundance of Fruits, Vegetables and Nuts and seeds, but most importantly, living RAW + genuine, true and brave to freely express oneself.
I've just given You a glimpse of what The Raw Beauty Project is all about as a whole, and yes, the Love Direction that it wishes to take. :) I envision sharing this love with You through Raw Beauty Smoothie Bowl Workshops, Healing Arts (Painting + Calligraphy) Workshops, Raw Beauty Fit Bootcamps & Raw Beauty Retreats +++ plus launching of a Very Special Kit that gives health, fitness and wellness a whole new dimension, utilising ArtS &cREATIVITY as an essential Key for OPTIMAL HEALTH.
This was our first ever PURSUIT to venture out and share this Love wihtin. :)
Last April 30, I took the courage to join Flow in the City: A Summer Wellness Market at Mandala Park. It was one of the happiest,most fulfilling times in my life as I was able to freely express and share what I love to people. Looking back..those were truly, truly good times..I even got a surprise visit from my best friend..and met a lot of amazing, amazing people...
We had Love Journals and Courage Bites (protein packed love bites with cashews, almonds, raisins, and coconut love syrup) and I really really poured my heart in creating all these Art and I'm just so grateful to that beautiful Soul up there, Jane Anticamara, who helped me in everything from lovingly wrapping the journals to creating the boxes for the energy bites. She's in Qatar now and gosh, she's the first, first Love Member of The Raw Beauty Project Philippines. <3 Love You, Jane!
Oh gosh, that's a whole lot of things and I recognise that I still have so..so much to work on myself..And believe me, living a FULLY RAW LIFESTYLE here in the city is quite challenging..very challenging indeed! I'd always have a Mason Jar with full of Raw Beauty Smoothie at work + fruits just in case I get hungry hahah! Though it seems that my body doesn't need so much after 2 huge raw Beauty Smoothies! <3 I feel so nourished and alive with just two..for now.. :) Hahahaha!
I see every challenge that come my way as an opportunity to grow and a commitment as well not only to my Dream, but most importantly with my VISION being an instrument..A Raw Beauty instrument...to empower women through providing the necessary tools, sharing the creative and intuitive skills and wellness information as guides + that all of us reach our highest, most fulfilling Divine potentials.
I'm currently drinking a huge huge huge Strawberry Banana Peanut Butter Love Smoothie while writing this and I just feel so NOURISHED AND AWESOME & ENERGISED and ALIVE. Awhile ago i felt so ugh and in just an instant, nourishing myself with Raw, Living Love filled food made everything so light. :) I feel so grateful for everything really..grateful for all the abundance..the love, the challenges..for they all make me grow and such allows me to keep moving forward, and share this Gift with You All.
Hope You truly enjoyed this post..and Yes, looking forward to create more Art with All of You. Should You wish to have Your Customised Love Journal, please feel free to let me know, shoot an email (adao.princess@gmail.com) and let's reconnect. I'd be more than happy to serve You.
