Dhrumil Purohit on Community

Natural News has posted a transcript of a call that Kevin Gianni and I had on community a few months ago. I think you’ll enjoy reading it especially if you’re someone who feels like they are on this journey “alone”.

Dhrumil Purohit Talks About How to Find a Supportive Community in Life and Diet

“Community is one of the biggest things. And for a lot of individuals
out there that feel like they’re on this journey by themselves, the
number one thing I can say to you is, instead of waiting for somebody
else to start community, maybe you could start that community. Maybe
you could be that leader that could just get a few people together.
Even if you start with just two people. It’s all about the
conversations that happen, and it’s all about sharing and growing
together as a community.”

1 hour and 15 minutes | Download the MP3 | via iTunes

Our guest today is Steve Pavlina. Steve is one of the internet’s most recognized and successful bloggers. Every month over two million people visit stevepavlina.com to read Steve’s unique take on personal development, which Steve calls “Personal Development for Smart People”.

In addition to his internet fame, Steve has been featured and quoted as a personal development expert in everything from the New York Times to The Guardian to USA Today.

In January of this year Steve started a public raw food diet trial in an attempt to see what sorts of results he could produce in 30 days. Although the first week was a bit rough, ultimately the trial was a success. As you can imagine, this has brought a lot of positive attention to the raw food community. Google the term “Raw Food” and you’ll see Steve’s blog as on of the top 10 links.

When someone like Steve is successful on raw foods, you definitely want to talk to him. Steve is so in-tune with his feelings and meticulous with his study of what works that even an 8 year raw foodie like me can learn a thing or two from his experiences.

In addition to talking about his experiences with raw foods we’ve also invited Steve to talk about earning love money and writing his first book, Personal Development for Smart People: The Conscious Pursuit of Personal Growth.

Raw Spirit Festival by Philip

The Raw Spirit Festival held in Sedona, AZ is the years biggest raw food festival - anywhere.  It’s a great time to get together with the raw food family, eat amazing food, hear the world’s best speakers, and just enjoy the warm gushy lovey feeling that is so present there. 

Last year I put together a wrap-up video of the festival with a combination of music and pictures.  I worked hard on it and released in just days after the festival.  This year I decided to do it a little different.  I was speaking at the festival this year so filming was really out of the question so I decided to give my perspective of the festival, along with some people pictures of my raw family.  I hope you enjoy the film and pictures.

Thank you to all that were there… for sharing a beautiful space together, manifesting magic, and rejoicing in our oneness.

Thank you for your love,
Philip

p.s. Raw Food Right Now has some great wrap up posts if you haven’t already seen them. Part 1, Part 2.
