Namaste Dear Souls, It is with great joy to announce that our new book has been released! This truly has been a work of love. About 2 1/2 years ago my soul mate and dear beloved husband passed away. He had written his autobiography but not fully completed it. I decided to add our love story so it could be released as a full book. It was such a healing process to write the book, edit it and now finally release it. The book contains his autobiography and gems on how to live your dreams. He lived not just one of his dreams but fulfilled multiple, over and over again he would rise against the odds to do something even greater. From being a helicopter pilot, to an electrical engineer, to saying goodbye to that and going into bodywork in the form of Structural Integration, opening his practice and later creating Gravity Body Academy which is still active to this day. He become a Best-Selling Author of The Anunnaki of Nibiru, The 7th Planet Mercury Rising, wrote a movie script, learned how to animate, a well known speaker and presenter and much more. He was truly a inspiration. I share how we met, how we fell in love and built our magical life together. Birthing books, moving from USA to Mexico, becoming entrepreneurs, our trials and tribulations and all up until his untimely and unexpected death and the feelings I went through as that happened. It's a beautiful book that I hope inspires you to rise against the cards that life deals you and live your dreams and pursue your passions. You can find the book at: GeraldClark77.com ArtisticVegan.com Amazon.com Thank you so much for being here and your support! It means more than you could ever know. Sending infinite love and light. May peace fill your heart and blessings surround your steps. With love, Christa Living My Personal Legend & A Love That Lives On PaperbackNearly all of us a have a dream inside of us burning to be fulfilled. We either do what it takes to make it come true or we continue living life, dreaming about it. This book holds the story of a many who fulfilled his dream, not once, not twice but over and over again. A man without fear and with a passion for living. Starting from humble roots where one could choose to stay, Gerald chose to rise up in multiple scenarios living and fulfilling not just one dream, but multiple dreams. This is the autobiography of best-selling Author, Gerald R. Clark who wrote “The Anunnaki of Nibiru” “The 7th Planet, Mercury Rising” and his screen-play “Odyssey Ki.” Gerald fulfilled his dream to fly becoming a helicopter pilot and Chief Warrant Officer II in the US Army, rising against the odds various times to make it so. From the Army he went to college and become a successful Electrical Engineer where he met his first wife and became a father to three beautiful children. He didn’t stop there and went for more training and become a healthcare practitioner in the art of Structural Integration, also known is Rolfing, opening his own practice helping others heal. After a rough divorce he was later led to meet his soul mate where he went on to become a best-selling author writing two books, a screenplay, becoming a well known speaker doing interviews, podcasts, and opening 7th Planet Broadcasting. He taught himself how to animate, wrote and produced The Anunnaki Series working with other like minded souls, and a movie script "Odyssey Ki". He then went on to open his own online school with his wife, Gravity Body Academy and held hands-on training. From his first breath to his last breath Gerald Clark lived an inspirational life. His autobiography is filled with gems to illuminate your path so you can do the same. Gerald shows us that we don't have to live the status quo, and we don't necessarily have to pursue only one path, we can follow our hearts calling and live our own personal legend! This book is not only an autobiography but also has the love story of Gerald and Christa Clark written by his soul mate Christa. A first hand look into their success, trials, tribulations, love for one another and her devastating loss. A widows tale of her own true love filled with insights on how to live your BEST life and keep living even after life throws you a hard curve ball, and to never stop believing that true love, a healthy, pure and inspirational love can exist for you. Quoted from the book: "Once upon a time, a girl met a man, and he helped her blossom into the woman she is today. Two souls destined to meet, to share their path, love, knowledge and with the world. Without his fire her smooth waters wouldn’t have created the waves of change that were required." "I learned while life can be hard, scary and at times full of changes and the unknown. Remember, you have the courage to face it, you’ll make it through to the other side, pass through that finish line, pass through the gate, survive, then hopefully thrive." - Christa Clark "What is interesting is that a person, place, or thing has the potential to change our fated path and become our destiny. Pay attention to what you are paying attention to. Discover why it is interesting to you, for good or bad and then choose wisely. These are the fated forks in the road along our stopping points of life." "You are a cosmic seed from the spawn of the INFINITE SOURCE, the CREATOR OF ALL. The books I have written empower the primitive worker to take the reins of their destiny, activating their hidden ba energetic key that will lead one back to the LIGHT, which is our destined home beyond the Duot, in another dimension and locale, neighbors to the CIRCLE OF LIGHT. Live your dream in this simulator, then let’s meet back at the SOURCE frequency." - Gerald Clark I recently went to Monterrey, Mexico and while I was there, I thought it would be fun to see what kind of vegan food they had. It turns out they have a lot! I decided to try the Hare Krishna Vegan Restaurant as it had a vibe from India and felt more spiritual than commercial.
I am really excited to announce you can all have early exclusive access to One Green Planet's Food Monster iPhone app. I downloaded it last night to give it a try and absolutely love it! It is extremely user friendly and intuitive. I love the link feature, when you are on a recipe you can click the link button and related recipes appear. For instance, I was looking at a chocolate cheesecake and upon clicking the link button raw desserts, vegan, cheesecake and more options appeared. Neat! It has a lot of browsing possibilities, from latest recipes, by ingredient, features, seasonal, collections, themes like dairy-free cheese, sandwiches, chocolate and more. I personally love the collections. Look at some of these: I thought I'd give it the ultimate test and make a new recipe from it. After browsing mouthwatering recipes...I decided the featured Blueberry Cheesecake was a must do! The crust blew me away, it is made with sunflower seeds, who knew? It was cookie dough like, stuck together brilliantly and tasted wonderful. It was topped with healthy blueberry cashew cheesecake. All using few ingredients that are really good for you! How were they? Amazingly soft, some of the creamiest cashew cheesecake I ever did taste. My husband and I both really loved it. Thank you OGP and Lucie Javorska for the great recipe! I made cupcake size because my freezer is full of sorbet. Here is how they turned out!

I have been busy working behind the scenes to move websites for a more user-friendly and blogger-friendly experience! I still have some open items I'm working on so hang in there with me while I work out the glitches and make the final touches. I have a backlog of beautiful recipes that I can't wait to share with you and more to be created and shared soon. I look forward to a wonderful 2016 and am excited to share with you all along the way. I wouldn't and couldn't do it without you and your support, views and love! Thank you! What is on the horizon this year? A new conference in May 2016 at Teotihuacan with my husband, best-selling author and researcher Gerald Clark! Learn all about it at: https://www.geraldclark77.com/anunnaki-dominions-of-mexico.html
We recently traveled to the Yucatan, Mexico to visit the historic site of Chichen Itza in the Mayan jungle! It was a life-changing event for many including me! My husband held The Anunnaki Realm of the Maya Ascension Symposium at the Hacienda Chichen Resort where people from around the globe came to his conference. We met the most wonderful people and had a fantastic time! The grounds of the Hacienda were magical and so lush! We shot a short video highlighting some of the grounds: and another of the sights and sounds! My husband will be releasing more videos of the conference, I highly recommend his latest Nibiru discussion: We were able to walk the original path the Mayans traversed to get to Chichen Itza entering through the Haciendas back-gate entrance. You emerge from the jungle and find yourself speechless as you see the huge ancient structures. I will probably be sharing more, in the mean time I wanted to give tips & tricks for saving money while traveling! I was able to make the majority of our meals in our room, without a kitchen! First, I researched online ways that people save money while traveling. From packing snacks to getting a room with a kitchen, my families favorite, to bringing your own hot plate. I thought that was so smart, we did just that. We went out, got a hot plate / electric grill, single burner for travel sake and it made a world of a difference! We were able to have homemade soup, potatoes, beans and more all because of an inexpensive burner. I packed the following to make life easy:
When we arrived we enjoyed an organic meal on site. The next day we got a taxi and went to a local town and picked up fresh fruit, vegetables and beans at the fruteria and tortillas and fresh tostadas from the tortilleria! I was stoked to see we had a mini fridge, soon our fresh fruit and veggies were covering up the mini bar beer. We spent about $20 or less and went to the market twice providing enough breakfast, lunch and dinner for 10 days less 3 meals, not bad if you ask me! Plus we were able to experience local ripe mangoes again this season among other great local fruits and veggies. The second trip we went on we tried a different market and found the hugest avocados, I had to confirm they were avocados (augacates) because I couldn't believe their size!! We also found beautiful pitayas, and more mangoes!! We enjoyed guacamole shortly there after with fresh tostadas! We also found a potato shaped like a heart! :) I love finding heart shaped items in nature! We enjoyed a number of yummy dishes, here a few below. Fresh salsa is easy to make as you can enjoy it raw and fresh almost instantly! This batch was made with tomatoes, onions, spicy peppers, garlic, lime, salt, pepper and usually cilantro, I missed that this time around. We love salsa and added habeneros for an extra kick! Breakfast was for coffee and fresh fruit. We enjoyed sweet cantaloupe, a variety of ripe bananas, mangoes, mandarin oranges, kiwi and pitaya. On this day we had the sweetest fresh mangoes with kiwi, delightful! Cantaloupe bowls are easy satisfying! The last day we had a stellar start to our day pre-5 am! Pitaya, mango, mandarins and semi-frozen bananas! This meal was full of beans, Mexican squash, mango, tomatoes, onions, garlic, Serrano peppers, lime juice and love! We enjoyed soup on more than one occasion! Recipe to follow. We also made our own stevia in the coffee machine in our room so we could have sweetener without affecting our blood sugar levels. See? You can eat well, even loose a few lbs. on travel and still enjoy yourself! Other ideas are to have rice, quinoa, oatmeal and pancakes, hummus and veggies or pita bread, sandwiches, burritos, tacos and salads. Raw food is a very easy option. If I were to do it again I would manage to bring a small cutting board and my Ninja so I could make smoothies, fast salsa, guacamole, dairy-free milk, hummus and more. Next time for sure! The food presentation was supreme while dining out! This was our new friend Michael's plate (above) I thought the creativity was stellar, pretty use of the pineapple! We had stuffed peppers and requested no animal products. It was a fabulous meal in very low lighting, sorry they didn't turn out nicer. During the conference our group enjoyed a beautiful array of treats from the Hacienda Chichen! Overall we had a wonderful arrangement of delicious food! Eating vegan on the go and while on travel is do-able and fun!
I hope this is empowering! In Love & Light - Shine ever so bright! Christa The Artistic Vegan Cookbook: An Alchemical Transformation - Available on Amazon!

Plant-Based Grocery Shopping!

Yesterday we visited the local market to pick up fresh fruits and vegetables for the upcoming week. We found a local store that advertised selling fruits and vegetables, I was so happy with the abundance and selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, with out dry goods. I was comparing how I used to grocery shop vs. how we shop today. Now we buy fresh produce and hardly any processed goods. In the past I used to get tons of packaged goods. With more and more additives and concerns about labels, I feel better getting fresh food. Organic is preferred and homegrown heirloom organic produce is the best! For now, until we plant our next garden, we have been enjoying the market. I am in love with the variety of bananas! I'm in banana heaven! All of the produce is wonderfully delicious and priced well. I wanted to share how I've changed my shopping patterns and now enjoy a bounty of fresh foods, a different haul each time, with the usual favorites. We live off plants and overall, feel great! I made a vegetable mandala to show the beauty of whole vegan foods that are bright, colorful and inviting! I am finishing up The Artistic Vegan Cookbook, due out at the end of this week! There are over 150 unreleased recipes that are some of my finest work to date, all vegan and gluten-free. I have been a bit negligent about posting new blogs, I look forward to coming back full speed with new recipes this August and sharing some savory pictures of what you can expect to find in my new cookbook. I hope you have all been doing fantastic, healthy and are having a wonderful summer! With love,
Christa |
