About the Video Information: Why I asked Drs Lepisto and King about Foods and Change

I established two areas for starters here in the Nutrition area of the Forums on Lumigrate.com and now have modified things a bit so am hoping to catch people where they are looking.  Please know there is a general 'Nutrition' area for everyone no matter if they have food allergies or eat a particular way, and it has all kinds of recipes from people, and mostly from before they became aware of food allergies and changed how they were eating OR they did modifications to make them healthier if they knew those concepts already.  They were very popular in the fall of 2009.  That are is: www.lumigrate.com/forums/integrative-medicine-parts-make-whole/nutrition/recipes [1]

This one is for Recipes and Cooking tips, etc.   The other is "Food Allergies - Our Experiences", which is a place for all of us to record (or others to read) how we found out about our food allergies, our processing of that, and what we've learned.  How do we cope?  What happens when we aren't coping?  Etc....  The more you contribute, the better it is for ALL!

There are TWO videos I wanted to produce for the launch of Lumigrate.com and this is why.

One is Dr. Christopher Lepisto (naturopath)'s "Food Allergies and Sensitivities" because you can, for $20 anywhere in the world get a video AND handouts emailed to you that you can watch the full hour long video seminar and be as close to being lucky enough to be his patient as I am.... with diligence you can actually identify your allergies for $0 in testing, it's just easier if you have access to the testing (and the $400 for the testing).  (And to be honest, I think it's more accurate to do elimination, it just is time consuming and takes a lot of effort and ... diligence, which is hard to do realistically).

AND for those of us who then know what we need to do with eating differently (or exercising, or stopping or starting any new 'habit') Dr. Paula King (psychologist) was kind enough to contribute her time to record 'Strategies for Lasting Change' which has a cool handwriting exercise that shows why it's so HARD to take on a new habit, and then gives us a full on 'guided imagery' exercise!  Again, for $20, anyone in the world can download a video and powerpoint of what she says in the seminar.  All videos are set up to not have any time limit or 'watch limit' on them... you can watch them a million times for 100 years!  Show others!  Maybe charge $1 admission for everyone and recoup your $20!  My concept with Lumigrate.com is different: we don't have advertisers.  It's like milk: you want a bottle, it's a charge for the production, and we're charging a low price ... the cost of going to a movie!  And it's your HEALTH.  We also hope that the public will call up, write, or email their health care providers and say 'please look at this website and download this video, as I think it describes what I might want YOUR help with.' 

For your ease, here are the links to the recommended video AND if you think you don't know how to find them on the website and do the download thing (and if I/Mardy can do it, anybody can -- I am NOT known for my abilities with a computer) -- please refer to this blog:

THANKS for learning with us!  I established Lumigrate.com for "Lighting the Path to Health and Well-Being" because I felt SO fortunate to have found out in the year past about food allergies ... hypothyroidism ... detox and cleansing .... supplements ..... mindfulness .... And I found out the HARD WAY and was VERY sick for a long time and was SO impressed with these progressive providers I was 'lucky' enough to land in the middle of here in little ol' Grand Junction, Colorado that I thought 'why NOT make a website and put their seminars on it?'  So please, take advantage!  The light is here for you to grab and start shining on YOUR path! ~~Mardy
