Blueberry Dream Cake - Gluten Free and refined sugar free!

Hi, lovelies!
Here I am again, I will probably not manage to upload new recipes every day anymore, but every now and then I will share my favorites with you. This one is definitely one of them! My latest obsession is to bake with quinoa, never thought it would work or taste good, but I have tried it out several times now and really LOVE it!

I have also shared this cake with my lovely friend Aishlinn @trucklife-family, and she approved:) So you know it's worth trying out!

New Bee Hive Set Up In Brighton, CO

My partner has been wanting to get back into beekeeping this spring. It all started before the accident when he listed his name with the local supplier of bee equipment to get a wild swarm...

Recently we got a Raw Milk share at this farm in Brighton, CO

We really like Kenny Johnson, the farmer. He is just like us in a lot of ways. He's our age, and he operates on the honor system with the milk.

Learning to Love Yourself ❤️ ♥️ Episode 1

Hello friends,

This is the start of a series of posts on self love.

Today I will cover the topic

What does it mean to love yourself?

We will discuss this in brief and then finish with a simple exercise that YOU can use to practice self love.

WHAT IS @THEGREENS UP TO THIS WEEK. MORE THAN I CAN POST, BUT HERE IS ONE GOOD ONE!

We collected over 200 Plastic Bottles from the community today

Today, @mr-greens, Merilyn and Dorine visited the Ntabessi neigborhood were they collected over 200 plastic bottles which were initially destined for the landfill.

During their collection, they were able to sensitize memebers of the community to #StopPlasticPollution and among the community members was Mrs. Shey Julius who pledged to reduce her plastic bottles footprint as well as donate all her plastic bottles to @thegreens.

WHAT'S HAPPENING IN OUR TRIBE COMMUNITIES?

A Repository of Wisdom: Help Us Build the Natural Medicine Library (And Win SBI!)

In every group or collective on Steemit, there's a Discord group behind it where people gather to chat, join in radio, and dump posts in the hope that someone will come and read, engage, and upvote their work.

The #postpromotion channel in Natural Medicine differs a little in that it has a RULE. You HAVE to engage or you can't drop, which can be initially confusing to some. Ultimately, though, we all like it because it helps us get to know each other and be accountable as part of the group, and most of us come around to the idea and like it.

The Holistic Church: An Idea Explored

So I've had some thoughts lately that I really want to share. I'm just going to jump into it because I don't know how to build up to it for an intro. I want to take a holistic look and a holistic issue, so this is gonna get wordy.

In Texas, we have a lot of churches. The little town I'm in now (I think like four thousand people) has at least ten churches that I can think of off the top of my head. Some big (500+ people), some small (no more than 25 on Easter). And it seems like everyone I meet is a pastor.

Every. Single. Church. Has at least five acres of land sitting unused.

When I see unused space like that, it kinda hurts. Especially a church. Here's a group that's supposedly charged with helping people, and they have a vast excess of resources that sit, unused to the benefit of nobody. It's hard for me not to be angry, but instead I am trying to come up with a solution.

Sciatic Pain: Acupressure = Natural Self-Care Medicine 101

I just got off the phone to my mother (aged 83!) in Australia, who has severe scoliosis and debilitating pain, which are restricting her movement. She's made a HUGE step forward after rejecting the dangerous and addicitive opioids for pain relief, and had her first Bowen Treatment today. What's Bowen treatment? You can read more about that Here.

Trouble is, the Bowen treatment is not covered by her private health insurance in Australia and she can only afford one treatment per month, which is unlikely to be enough to get, and keep, her fully mobile. So what to do?

Go back to the simple, natural, proven, self-care treatments you can enjoy at home.

ACUPRESSURE, several times a day, is simple, free and incredibly effective.

Bringing My Energy Back Towards HomeSteadersCoop and WeaveTo Empower

There are so many things that I want to get done, so many things that I want to start up, my head is swimming with plans and ideas, that I sometimes find that I have to remind myself to breathe. Take a deep breath and bring myself back to the present, to the now. What can I do now, in this very moment what can I achieve.

This usually stops my head from swimming and I find myself in balance once more. One step at a time is all that is needed in order to achieve one's goals. Just one step at a time. But still if I had more hours in the day, I could do x, y and z and then some. Imagining, how mush more productive I could be.

Stacking Functions: Trusses as Concrete Forms

As the house progresses steadily, it's pretty amazing to realize that every step we're taking is bringing us one step closer to realizing our dreams. It's all of the little details which add up to become a house.

Yesterday and today we have been working steadily on building the parallel chord trusses, which will double as concrete forms.

101 reasons why earthships are fuc!*ing awesome: Part #3 Reasons 21-30

Earthship Biotecture has to be one of the least understood sustainable building and living models around. This is not least because they offer SO many benefits that it is hard to even know them all, let alone explain them all! Let it be said that an Earthship can stay at a comfortable climate at even -20 Celsius or 40 Celsius with no power requirements for heating or cooling systems. The systems of an earthship encounter the forces of nature, mainly the sun, rain, and wind, and funnels them into your home to provide everything you need to live comfortably with annual utility bills of around $200 or less.

I have been inspired to write this in sections, with you all, and once it is completed I will be compiling it into a single digital and paperback book available to all to learn and be inspired. So without further ado, here is the third part of my 101 reasons why Earthship are fuc!*ing awesome! I’m so curious to see if i start to run out of reasons before the end, or if they just keep coming... let's see!
