The is a Dynamic Diva Fast update. I am on my 18th day of fasting and I feel absolutely wonderful!

I am fasting for political awareness and spiritual support for Dafur. I am fasting to rid my spirit, mind and body of toxic thought, feeling, and foods. I am fasting to bring social awareness to the plight of womens health in general and African- American womens health in particular.

During this African Holistic fast, my spirit and body has force me to slow down and relax and become conscious of my work. I am forever greatful for the healing power of fasting. It takes you away from food and have you focus on food for thought which I think we need so much more of.

By getting quiet an doing much needed introspection, we can see the healing power of the divine that flows though us. The benefit of fasting has allowed me to see more healing in all areas:

1. Most nations divesting of economic support to Dafur.
2. Women are taking back their health and black women are healing their bodies with better food, exercise and relaxation.
3. And I am prepared to go on my second leg of my book tour invigorated, inspired and more healthier than when I started.

I still have ten more days to go and doing that time I am going to focus on spreading more love and peace in the world. Fasting helps you become so much more in tune to for the food of love and peace. Love and peace are what really sustains us though life and makes this world a better place.

On cloud nine,

P.S. Look for my new book, Dynamic Diva Diet in 2009.

Divas know how to shop until we drop! My book, Dynamic Diva Dollars discusses the important of honing savvy saving secrets so we can save and invest our money to make more money.

Here is an example of how I saved $600.00 dollars when I bought much needed luggage:

I needed luggage so bad. Since I have been on my national Dynamic Diva Dollars book signing tour traveling to over 22 cities, my luggage has taken a major beating. The pieces were already worn out from the normal wear and tear of traveling with me for over ten years. When I started the tour, back in May, I knew I needed luggage but I had to wait until August for a good discount. August is the end of travel season, so most stores have sales on their luggage items. The best time to shop for any items and get a great discount is when they are going out of season.

I went to my favorite clothing store for the family, Kohls. They had a buy one get one free luggage sale!!!!! Additionally, My husband applied for a Kohl’s credit card and got an additional 15% off the price of the luggage. He was thinking that it would cost us $1200.00 for good quality luggage. Oh contraire, my friend….. Never fear, the Discount Dynamic Diva is here. 

I got six pieces of Docker luggage with the average bag costing $200 bucks for $588.00 dollars for the whole family! I saved my family and I over $600 (I can take the money I saved and invest it in my kids commodities account so it can make more money for me)!  The luggage is a top brand-very good quality-and I know it will last us another ten years.

It is very important that you be economical and not cheap with your dollars. Cheapness cost you more when you buy low quality items only having to replace them more often. I believe in being very economical with my dollars. When I buy, I factor in quality, time and money. You may want to, also.

Since I use the luggage for business purposes, I maybe able to write-off some of the luggage. (Check with your accountant for the specifics).

You make money saving and investing it instead of spending it. When I shop for any items, I always buy, only, during a sale and I buy, only, when I need them.

So, Diva I think this information will help you make money and save money. Diva share your great saving secrets and post a comment here. We would love to hear from ya.

Have a Dynamic Diva Dollar Day,

Elon

A wealth of health is very important if a Diva is to successed in life.

Upon successfully completing the first leg of my national book tour for Dynamic Diva Dollars, I am taking the month of August to give thanks, heal, cleanse and purify my mind, body and spirit.  You can heal the mind, body and spirit is by fasting.

I am doing a 28 day fruit and vegetable juice fast. African Holistic health supports fasting as a way to allow the body to rest while it speeds up the detoxification of the body of all negative thoughts, feelings, emotion and foods.

African Holistic Health style fasting supports the spiritual food of love and peace. Additionally, I’m fasting in honor of those who have died in Dafur and praying for no more war but peace in the country. Since I have begun my fast, I have heard such wonderful pro-active news that many countries are taking action to help facilitate peace in Dafur.

I believe that peace begins with each one of us. If we can focus on peace withing ourselves and get rid of the wars going on from within, it will have a dominoe effect on the larger community.

The end result will be a renewed beautiful mind, body and spirit, and a more peaceful world.

Divas, you can do a healthy fast to connect to your mind, body and spirit. Ghandi saved a India from the British by fasting and you can save the Dafur, too.  The Consolation prize will be weight loss and a more loving you. 

What are your thougths about fasting and peace in Dafur?

Have a Dynamic Diva Day,

Elon

P.S. My forth coming book in 2008, Dynamic Diva Diet will discuss the benefits of fasting and will supply fasting programs.
