@Scheng1 – Finding that connection to joy is a wonderful place to be at. And there is something very spiritual, as well, about connecting to that inner happiness within us. Thanks for sharing that!

@Colleen – Yes, Evita has a wonderful smile…and I really see that as a smile that comes from within her. Beautiful…

@Evita – (waving) ….

Wow – what a wonderful story you have added here. Thank you so much. And yes whether some see it as happiness and others as deep peace within, today I feel grateful to have both be abundant in each of my days.

Hi Colleen

Thank you so much for coming by and sharing in this interview and for the really sweet compliment
Evita´s Last Fabulous Post ..We Are All Evolving Beings

How wonderful to hear from you and have you also share in my story here with Lance!
And I couldn’t agree more. It is so true, over the past few years, I have been changing not only my tastes and views on things, but also being increasingly attracted to nature and on very profound levels. It is pretty incredible! I think it comes down to that realization that nature is what sustains us, and is us on so many levels. It is pretty incredible.

And I love hearing that you pick your own food, that is what we are actually aspiring to at the moment to make a move to a much more natural state of living. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts here

@Tim – Hi Tim. Evita’s background provides for a very interesting mix on life – and one that I find so good to connect with. Top that off with her genuine caring, and her beauty shines through in all she does. And that is all sorts of awesome!

@Mark – Hi Mark. Evita’s true spirit was shining through in her responses – deeply meaningful and caring. And that just fits her so well, and to the person she is….

@Evita – Good morning Evita! (woohoo!!)

@Wilma – Hi Wilma. Thank you so much for your wonderful affirmation of love. And nature is a real draw for me, too. That ebb and flow of natural life…and how that is like our life…at a deep level. Enjoy all those wonderful freshly picked foods!!!

Gosh, you gave me one of those comments where I am really quite speechless. Tim, thank you so much for all that you have said. It is so humbling and also so moving to hear. I cannot tell you how so very blessed I have felt to hear what you and other readers have taken the time to say, not to mention the work Lance did to put this all together.

As for nutrition, that is an interesting area indeed. In our society, it is pushed upon us in many ways that life is all about food. We eat when we are happy, sad, angry, joyful. We eat to celebrate and we eat when we grieve. Yes it has an amazing social connection, but over the past few decades the food used in that connection is really not serving our bodies.

So I am all for appreciating good food, but it has to be actually “good” for me too, or else I am benefiting in one area, while hurting another area. Anyway Tim, I have to say that you have motivated me to do something that I have been thinking of doing for a while now….I am going to put together some presentations and figure out how to best share them with people online. So thank you

Hi Mark

What a pleasure to see you here and have you share in this interview. I so appreciate the time you took to read it and comment – this whole interview has been such a pleasure on so many more ways than I could have ever expected! Thank you so much for that beautiful comment.

Evita,
Thank-you for letting us to get to know you on a different level. You are an amazing being!
Mark´s Last Fabulous Post ..The Reflection of Our Reactions

Thank you for sharing a little bit more about you and thanks Lance for putting this all together. Evita, I’ve been following you on Twitter and have read some of your posts and I have to say that I’m very impressed with your background and what you’ve had to say. Very cool…a science teacher and now you focus on spirituality and nutrition. In recent years, I’ve become very interested in food and how it can be such a great thing that brings joy and connection with other people. But I’m learning that while food can give us the nutrition that really sustains us…some food can lead us on a very negative path.

I’ve been blessed with good genes (i.e. I’ve always been skinny) and for most of my life, I never worried too much about what I ate. Now, as I’m getting older and I’m not as skinny as I used to be, I think I’ve needed to relearn and reconsider what I put into my body. I really appreciate the message that you communicate out there and I look forward to reading and learning more from you. Thanks again for this great peak into your life, I really admire you.

I am shaking my head and smiling, of course! how could I have forgotten to mention the angels! This is what I meant by it being a really perfect quote that truly resonated with my heart and soul – the peace – the angels – the diamonds.

Angels are indeed also very special to me. I had an angel collection since I was 16, not to mention that I always held a special affinity and acknowledged my guardian angels as a child. And do you know that to this day, people who don’t even know that, give me “angels” as a token of thank you for something (like a few of the students I taught last year) or someone I consulted in the past. I find that really something so special. I mean out of all the “stuff” out there or tokens – angels! I just love it!

And I want to say, thank you again, for not only did you include a very special quote, not only did you include such heart felt responses, but your comments to the readers are also so special and moving to me. I really cannot thank you enough – so I send you warm, loving energy full of gratitude and joy!

@Hilary – Hi Hilary. It was so fun working with Evita on this. She has a heart of gold, and seeing that shine through even more is such a gift! Anyway, Hilary, thank you so much for your continued support, and I know you will very much enjoy reading Evita’s works on her site….

@Evelyn – Hi Evelyn. That’s what I love so much about these interviews – it’s a look inside on a different level than we may otherwise normally experience. And that “look inside” with Evita is filled with beauty and love…

@Evita – Hey there!! Yes, the comments are so filled with love…and I completely believe that is because it is exactly what everyone sees in you…and that helps to bring out the beautiful words they have shared. And I know the Dr. Bruce Lipton is a role model of yours, although I wasn’t aware of his connection to epigenetics (although it makes much sense now that you say that). I find the whole concept very fascinating.

And thank you for sharing about what that quote meant to you. I did not know about your deep love for diamonds (and what the clarity and transparency means to you). I did think about the angel part, as I know you have written about angels before. What really made this quote so beautiful, for me, was in the thought of “diamonds sparkling in the sky”…and how much that image is one that is so fitting for you. Evita, you “light up” all that you touch upon – and with so much clarity and transparency in who you are. So, how wonderfully fitting that this precious gem is one that resonates also with you. You truly are a diamond in my sky…

@Robin Easton – Hi Robin. Echoing what Evita has said…Robin, your love and energy shine through in such amazing ways. I am deeply touched by your words. You connect with me very much at my soul…and it is such a good, good place to feel your love and caring beauty. And the truth is, the love that is shining through here is really my giving back what Evita has so openly shared. As you know, she is a person that is very much connected to her heart and soul. And that shines through so wonderfully in both her answers to the questions and in her caring comments. That all makes it so easy (and natural) for me to share what I am truly feeling in my own heart. Robin, I am so happy to have you here to read Evita’s interview…you are a compassionate and loving soul…and you add so much to my life, and to really my completeness of being. Peace and love to you…always…

@Evita – Good morning Evita! (smiles!) (…and a little tiny laugh…)

Wow Robin, how is it that every time you write something on this medium (through this world wide web) I feel your energy and your love so clearly?!?! It is like any place you touch transforms into something richer, and so much more grand.

Your words have touched me so deeply. I treasure your friendship SO much, and always love looking up to you. In fact your love for nature, played a huge part in awakening me to an even greater love for nature myself. I see our paths as so similar in so many ways. The one thing I have definitely not done is lived in the Rainforest, but there is still time…. LOL – I am not discounting anything like that these days! I gravitate towards a natural life so much, and hearing your experiences always whether past or present solidify that for me.

And yes, I do remember the photo, I sent it to you after I came back from one of those trips “up north” (no laughing Lance and wanted to share a bit of how I interact with nature too. I have this special affinity for moss – I just love all the varieties of it, and I always picture it like some miniature mystical Kingdom is down there! Or in Earthly terms, I am just fascinated by it

Anyhow thank you so much again for stopping by to share in my journey, and many continued blessings and love to you always!
