Eric Botner has created the River Canyon Retreat Center near Nevada City.  He recently wrote me:

 

The Latest report from River Canyon Retreat is I just got back from the Portland International Raw Festival.....
I shared a booth with Len Watson who spoke 5 times and was very well received. He will be here at river canyon for the upcoming Vibrant Living Gathering .... and then he will be leading a 3 to 10 day juice fast from Sept. 5th to 14th.
The few messages I heard over and over from all of the speakers ...

EAT GREENS ....... they need to be an important part of your diet to succeed long term on raw foods..... the other is the benefits of fasting.
 

Viktorus Kulvinskas said that fasting increases your IQ at least 40% and much higher is possible. This is incredible info he used for writing exams at Harvard .....  Len Watson is known as "the master faster" ....he works with colon cleansing and blood purifying herbs. He is 27 years on raw foods, a long time colon therapist, amazing structural bodyworker, ashtanga yogi and nutritionist. Len has amazing information and knowledge of how to make raw work and is available during the events and private appointments before he returns home to Maui.


The events info is at

Part scholarships are available for the juice fast, and work trade for the Vibrant Living Gathering.

Namaste         Eric
