This month we'll talk about the future of Austin as the Extreme Abundance Capital of the World, Genetic Engieered Foods and we'll hear from Victoras Kulvinskas about CellTech's Naturalite product.

We have been talking with several speakers in the alternative health and live food community. The consensus - there are strong support organizations on both the east and west coast. However, support through the south and central areas is sparse.

Austin is a natual hub of the Alternative and we are choosing to expand Austin to a higher level of support for health seekers. We hold speakers visiting Austin on a regular basis, eventually transforming into a yearly conference similar to the Whole Life Expo, with a more hands-on, practical focus for health seekers and marketing assistance for participating vendors.

If you share our vision, here's how you can assist:

• Recommend to your like-minded friends, a subscription to Live Feast Magazine (join@RadicalHealth.com), so we can notify large numbers of people about upcoming speakers. While we are focusing on Austin right now, feel free to recommend Live Feast Magazine to out of towners too, so we can assist speakers locating other cities for speaking engagements.

• Support the speakers who visit. See the upcoming events section for the speaker(s) this month and be sure to pre-register to enjoy a ticket discount.

• Contribute articles to Live Feast Magazine. Email david@davidfavor.com with articles you write or interesting articles you find.

• If you are an alternative practitioner, write an article for Live Feast Magazine and send out an email announcement about your article to your clients.

• Give us feedback. Tell us how to improve Live Feast Magazine. Tell us what turns you on about alternative living. Tell us how you like the speakers who visit. Tell us about your vision for Austin and how we can support you.

In the spirit of Conscious Languaging and Pure Speech, we will hereafter refer to our Potluck as our Monthly Feast. Potluck has some odd negative meanings, while Monthly Feast is more in alignment with our vision of abundance and festivities.

This Saturday is our Monthly Feast! Here is a spontaneously created Monthly Feast Flyer. Feel free to print out copies and pass along to your friends.

--- Austin Live Food Support Group Report ---
Here's a report from Nell from one of the recent Support Group Gatherings.

Hello Fellow Raw Foodists, Tonights group was very inspiring and supportive. We are growing and connecting. The group is based on Victoria Boutenko's 12 STEPS TO RAW FOODS. Each week the dicussion begins with sharing and then we go to the book to get our inspiration.

Tonight we all had alot to say about how stress can cause one to reach for comfort foods even when we know how disasterous the results can be. Sharing our setbacks and feelings involved can be healing. We agree how inportant it is to have a support group to help us stay on the raw food journey.

Beginning April 1st the group will meet on Mondays at 7:15 at the Eternal Way Meditation center on South Lamar in the Whole Life Books shopping center. If you are interested in joining or know someone who desires support, please direct them to the group. Thank you all for taking part on this journey and helping to raise our consciousness in Austin. I feel so priviledged to be part of such a forward thinking people.

- Namaste, Nell
