HELLO My sparkly Friends!!!
OMG- Looky what I have found-
Say hello to Mimi Kirk-
My new Sparkle from the inside out inspiration Angel!!!
I just came across Mimi Kirk yesterday while googling for something- I forgot what, but OMG wow is all I can say!
When I read that she was 73 years old,
I was completely in awe by how incredible she looked. She was born in 1938!!

When I visited Mimi’s website
the story of of her healthy lifestyle she embraces inspired me to revisit my experimenting with juicing raw food.
This was Mimi 4 years ago before raw food
and after just four years of eating right!
I have taken Mimi on as my personal role model( she doesn't know it yet)! Her care of her body and her diet has made it possible not only for her to look and feel like a much younger person, and glowing health makes it easy to live life abundantly. Here is what I found out about Mimi…

Mimi prefers a raw, vegan diet – she says it makes her feel so much better
after eating raw foods than cooked foods. She is also happy knowing that eating
vegan is compassionate towards animals. She became a vegetarian back in her 30's because of the cruelty aspect. I found this quote
"My energy level is amazing and I think I look better than I did when I was just a vegan and not eating raw foods.
I think one can still eat processed foods as a vegan, but there is not much of a chance when eating raw that you will be consuming processed foods. So I think, personally, it is a healthier choice all around that I have embraced.”

When did she start eating this way?
When Mimi turned 69, she became a raw vegan because as she says "my blood pressure and cholesterol were up and I was starting to feel arthritic pains in my joints."
LOOK at what 4 years eating raw will do!!!
According to Mimi, after just six months, her body had healed and everything was normal- all without taking any prescriptions drugs.

So what makes Mimi Sparkle?
Mimi believe passion for life, love, friendships, looking forward to the future, exercise, passion, compassion, laughter and knowing how to manage stress all contribute to a long, healthy life.”

So my sparkly friends- the beauty of Mimi for me is that she is not linked to any new diet product or exercise machine- she is living proof that what we put in our bodies as fuel determines how our "engines" will run.
You can't put french fry oil in your car and expect high performance...
Your engine will seize and you will be left with a pile of junk.
I don't know about you, but want I to look and feel like Mimi when I am 73!
You don't have to go cold turkey and join an ashram-
Start by simply adding 1 or 2 fresh veggie/fruit juices like my fave- Organic Apple, celery and Ginger.
If you don't have a juicer yet- try them at your local healthfood store and see if you like them.
I started this morning with a juice and plan to greet each day that way- and begin to add raw recipes a little at a time.
We will see about full on Raw Food later... lol
If you want to try Mimi's recipes
