About me

19875123_10155603593162652_3218197105248000889_nIn December 2013 I was diagnosed with  a soft tissue sarcoma of the calf. I had a 5-10% chance of survival or less. So I decided to embark on a holistic regime of healthy eating, acupuncture, yoga, pilates, and positive thinking. I started this website to share my success with others in the same predicament. The recipes are based on the yin/yang or hot/cold tenets of Traditional Chinese Medicine and are dairy free. I hope this site  helps you as much as it has helped me.
