The 5 Stages of Raw Transformation™

Mastering raw food on a practical level is one thing, mastering it on an inner level is something entirely different! And while the external mastery is much easier to label, teach and fine-tune, the internal is a bit more fluid, much less tangible, but in many ways is so much more rewarding.

While it took Karen five years to figure out how to go and stay raw on a practical day-to-day level, it took her thirteen years to fully get clear that there was also an inner journey that could be split into stages too. It’s a journey that everyone on any path of personal growth follows on one level or another, but it’s especially applicable to the raw food journey as it transforms the whole person and not just one aspect such as the mind, body, spirit or emotions. In fact, on the raw food journey every cell, every thought, every feeling and every intuition or insight can become stronger, cleaner, brighter and more aligned with perfection - when done correctly, of course.

The secret’s out!

When you first see them, the 5 Stages may induce something of an "aha" moment if you've been into raw food for a while, but if you're new they might seem strangely odd! Don't worry - all will become clear in a moment... Their beauty is in their simplicity. And when you ponder on your own raw journey to date - even if you are new, it’s very likely that you’ll immediately realise that what you have here is a map that you can take comfort from, be guided and inspired by, and journey more joyfully along as you and your diet evolve ongoingly.

Are you ready to learn the 5 Stages?

Here they are…

Stage 1: Awaken
This is the time when you first open your mind to the possibilities of raw foods and/or going raw. It’s an exciting time and also a confusing one – everything seems new and exciting, yet it can also seem daunting and even a little overwhelming too. You do feel as if you are waking up to something, but you're not quite sure yet if it's a "good" waking up or not!

Stage 2: Ground
When you’ve made the decision to explore raw foods to any degree, there needs to be a period of grounding (if you skip this you’ll be away with the fairies!). This is where you get clear on where you’re starting from, what you’re hoping to achieve, what your motivations are and what you do and don’t know about eating raw and all that goes with that. Again, an exciting time that can also feel a bit overwhelming as you realise just how much you have to learn and unlearn in order to move forward into this live new world!

Stage 3: Aspire
As the raw energy starts to move through you, an ever-increasing sense of strength, power and vitality starts to become perceptible. It may start small at first, with just a few weird “feelings” but if you’re eating the right way (more about this in Karen's Raw Kitchen) then you’ll definitely begin to notice some inner shifts for the better quite quickly. It’s at this critical time that you MUST allow the energy to flow in whatever way it wants and needs to. For some this may mean taking exercise for the first time in years; for others it may mean starting to consider moving jobs or changing any other aspect of their lives that isn’t working; for others it may mean tackling underlying emotional issues first before progressing to the more uplifting stuff. But whatever it is, let it be. Those who don’t allow this natural movement to let things “be” tend to struggle continually until they either drop “the diet” or allow their own truth to unfold (slowly if need be) and give themselves full permission to truly follow their heart and “blueprint”.

Stage 4: Grow
This is the stage where aspiring has turned to action and is typically by far the longest part of the journey. This is the time for being brave and courageous and going after what you want in all areas of your life and working on all four levels. Sure, it’s not always easy, and yes, the road sometimes can be long and winding and challenging too, but the potential rewards are beyond anything you may currently be able to imagine, and are SO worth the effort. The alternative? Well, the opposite to grow is to wilt as none of us stays still, so draw your own conclusions!

Stage 5: Blossom
This is the proverbial pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Anyone who is prepared to brave the previous 4 Stages is more than worthy of the Raw Transformation crown! This is where your aspirations have become your reality, your labours have borne fruit and you will look and feel your most radiant and alive to date, on every level. Beyond this, well, think of the blooms you might pick in your own garden – when they’ve reached their potential for this time around, the petals will drop and they’ll return back to the soil ready to awaken at a whole new level next time around - but next time they won't be scared anymore! And so the journey continues… (And it just keeps getting better and better).

So, these are the 5 Stages – do they inspire you? They should - although it might be hard to grasp it intellectually as it really has to be felt in every fibre of your being experientially. But if you are brave, have a sense that there is a better way to look, feel and live your life, then the raw food journey is one of the most rewarding journeys you will ever embark upon in your entire life. And if you can master the internal then the external will be a breeze!

But do know this: It can take a long time to take all of this on board and journey the 5 Stages, so do not worry if your own raw journey hasn’t happened or isn’t happening at the speed you’d like. A large part of this is trusting in the timing of life and of your own part within it. Just as a flower cannot bloom before its season, nor can you, so trust, allow and enjoy the process, whatever speed or form it may take. You’ll never be where you are now ever again, and it will get better and better every time you move along - even just a little bit, so savour every moment.
