ElixirCraft Mastery is the latest collaboration between We Like It Raw and Alchemist Daniel Vitalis.

In short ElixirCraft Mastery is a 6 Part 6 Hour MP3 Course on the power of liquid herbal alchemy. You really have to hear it to believe it, so instead of me really trying to explain I suggest you head over to elixir-mastery.com to listen to a free 11 minute preview of the course.

I’m all about the raw food movement becoming more sophisticated and this course is my contribution to that mission.

Here are what some of my friends have to say about the course:

Shazzie:

Heidi and Justin from Raw Food Right Now:

It is our prediction that ElixirCraft
will be part (or leader) of a whole new paradigm for home-based
nutrition. Now that we all “got” the raw aspect of eating, it’s time to
ask, “What’s next?”. In our opinion, ElixirCraft is what is next, or at
least part of it.

Philip:

“Daniel and Dhrumil are true players! I wish I could be exactly like them.”

Actually Philip didn’t say that, but I’m sure he’s thought it before. ; )

I’ll be making my own video testimonial about the course tomorrow. I want to be authentic and transparent about 1) why I teamed up with Daniel to put this course out there and 2) how this information has evolved my own journey.

Hope you enjoy!

I see raw chocolate as a treat, something to enjoy on special occasions with friends. I’m not crazy about it (I’m not crazy about anything) and I’m also not anti-chocolate either. I respect all the conversations that are happening out there on the subject of chocolate AND my feeling is that most We Like It Raw readers feel the way I do. We don’t worship at the chocolate altar, but we do enjoy it once in a while.

That all being said, with Valentines Day coming up I thought I’d feature some of the latest happenings in the world of Raw Chocolate. New companies, special deals, classes and more. Enjoy!

Have you tried these yet? My local co-op just started carrying them. Wow! What a treat. The balance of flavors is incredible. Tastes like a raw snack should.

That same boring bowl of iceberg is looking a little pale lately. That is because the variety of dark, crunchy super-greens now available to consumers is so bountiful. You can transform your next salad into a phytonutrient powerhouse with the addition of these vibrant, healthful and beautiful emerald beauties.

Eating a smoked salmon salad several times a week as your lunch is a great way to build your commitment to healthy eating in a way that is both nutritious and good for you. Of course, the vegetables that make up a complex salad are always good for you, as long as they are dressed with a low or no fat dressing. But the secret to this salad is really in the smoked salmon. It’s excellent for you for a variety of reasons. The first is that it’s incredibly high in protein. This helps you to stay active during a long day.

Are you a raw food enthusiast? If not, you’re not alone! But, there are some benefits to incorporating even a small amount of raw food into your diet. And the good new is it’s not as hard as you think!

Tasty and healthy salad recipes that are diabetic friendly. Thai Spicy Cucumber Peanut Salad and Cukes and Onions In Sour Cream are both easy and quick to prepare.

I don’t know how many times I say to people “Save your money and make your own salad dressing!” The big brands we are so familiar with make a killing on charging consumers top dollar for their “Unique vinaigrettes.” When I ask consumers why they choose to buy rather than make a dressing, convenience is the word most commonly used. Well, if you’ll allow me to retort, this vinaigrette is easily made in mere minutes, for far less money, and most importantly better in taste! How’s that for convenience??
