surfing through the ‘quagmire of confusion’ when it comes to Nutrition – particularly ‘cleanses’ – can be a pretty rough ride unless you’ve got the proven, safe, effective Wisdom of WF as your Path. the thing about “going on ‘cleanses’ is that it sets you on a roller-coaster approach to cellular fitness which is precisely what you DON’T want to happen! what is needed is a consistent, appropriate BALANCE between cell cleansing and cell empowerment. EQUANIMITY of body, mind, and spirit begins with cell fitness. pic of ilg ‘Colorado Surfing’ by Kathy Faulstich

most people got it all backwards in their nutritional fitness..STUDENT A:
Someday I would like to look at a long term plan for moving towards a diet similar to Coach Ilg’s largely herb based nutrition.
STUDENT B:
i am 29 and the new father of a one year-old…and if i can be half as fit as you, Coach, at age 48, then please, for the sake of my chi-ld please help me attain some wholeness…i want to the be most supple, strong, young in body and heart father as i possibly can be!!!
COACH:
that ‘someday’ can be OMday if you are willing to JUMP!
we’ve got a quiver of three primary nutritional arrows that transforms weaklings into suprahumans and it’s very easy, and in the end, extremely cost effective:
here is the Proven Path so build your quiver tonight and know that ilg will be with you EVERY step of the quiver packing way:
“Whatever comes, let it come…
Whatever passes, let it pass…
Have no need for anything.”
– ancient yogic scripture
i took this photo of Dewachen Ilg, yesterday at a family Easter gathering in New Mexico…whenever i see Dewa blowing bubbles, i see the bubbles as the quaint, temporary, and countless lifetimes we’ve all chugged through…then, POOF! Gone in an instant…just like our current incarnation. That’s why in WF we do our best to balance ‘entertainment’ with ‘inner-attainment’…the following Teaching really brings this h(om)e to me…may it help you as well…
from WF Online Shishya MM from Arkansas; “I thought I had skirted
the one that I sent a pic of earlier,,,,,,,no deal. The back end of
that slapped me with about two inches of rain and some 40mph winds.
It was awesome. There is something very clean and calming about
riding in a down pour. It brings a great deal of clarity about what
we are doing and why…”
