Main Street Vegan Academy

This past Tuesday we had another fun afternoon with the students from Victoria Moran's Main Street Vegan Academy.

She always brings her students to High Vibe were they learn more about Raw Food and a balanced lifestyle.
There's always a lot of sampling going on, delicious crackers and raw vegan nut cheeses. Garlic dip and hummus. And of course of delicious apple juice infused strawberries.

The students are free to roam around, look at products and ask questions.

Throwback Thursday, the High Vibe Style! Part 4

#tbt the High Vibe Style! Isn't it fun? Memories are just so precious.

Today we would like to share a blog post from Marie-Claire / Ravishing Raw

Read on, or click here for the blog post including all the pictures: Ravishing Raw Visits High Vibe

New York is one big contrast! You can go from a huge Whole Foods Market to a small, charming raw food store and be just as excited and enchanted. Oh I love New York!

And …

When you notice the bright green in the 138 East 3^rd st NYC, NY. 10009, you know that you are at the right place. This facade with its nicely displayed windows is so inviting that you simply HAVE to open the door and check out what it is behind it. To me, it is raw paradise. The store is using every square inch at the fullest to please your hunger for superfoods, organic body care, whole foods supplements, raw food goodies and knowledge.

You will be welcomed warmly and whatever your question about a product, you will get a satisfying answer. I was pleased to meet Bob Dagger, the owner, who is always looking for the best for his store. I especially like the variety of products here and you can tell how much love and effort is put in expanding the huge offer. There is always something new to discover and this time I noticed mushroom powders such as Reishi and Chilajit, Tocotrienols, Sunflower and Soy Lecithin, vanilla powder and yum, raw Manna bread!  I tasted their two Zana Juices, a very powerful probiotic drink made of fermented cabbage. I could buy the whole store but only had one suitcase…

It is good to visit places like these where you can immerse yourself and broaden your raw horizon. It is by buying completely new products and trying out their possibilities that you can discover new tastes and textures in your recipes. This is what keeps your uncooking exciting, fresh and new. New, high quality products motivate you to go deeper into the culinary world of raw food and feel the excitement of eating healthy. Oh my, I can talk hours about this!

Another section which gives me the high vibes is the lovely book department. It is so good to see a library this expanded. I bought Matt Amsden’s book but felt like buying the whole series of Dr. Norman Walker and more. It is just so nice to have all that choice and to be able to browse through books instead of ordering them online without seeing or smelling. I like to hold books in my hands before they become mine.

So if you are in New York, be sure to hop over and get the good vibes at High Vibe!

Throwback Thursday, the High Vibe Style! Part 3

Today at #tbt the High VIbe Style you can read all about How a Raw Diet Will Make You Gorgeous,  Dagger's Favorite Breakfast back in 2005,
Dagger's Top 5 Daily Secrets for Flawless Skin and much more!

Let's dive right into it.

Read on, or go to the original Website: the Raw Food Diet

THE RAW FOOD DIET WILL MAKE YOU GORGEOUS INSIDE AND OUT!!

Believing that most health food stores peddled junk food that only looks good, Bob Dagger came up with the antidote: he opened New York City's High Vibe (HighVibe.com) in 1993 (pre the diet craze) to help himself and others transition to healthier foods and a raw diet.

He himself was trying to heal from years of a "rock n roll lifestyle" and through a combo of fasting & raw juices, as well as starting to eat healthy. In true New York fashion, the compliments rolled in. People started saying he looked great. His well of knowleddge and requests for advice led to his own store.

Dagger De-Mystifies the Raw Food Diet:

Raw food is not about 100% anything “The only thing I believe in is 100% compassion,” he notes. To go raw, he advises that you “put as much raw into your diet as possible.
You can do simple little things, like a green juice a day." His fave is celery & apples with some parsley. (It's tasty, and it works).

A key fact to know about raw food is enzymes: cooking food above 110 degrees destroys the enzymes, which means your body has to create them to break down & digest the food. "What causes old age is a lack of enzymes," explains Dagger. Think of enzymes like the worker bees...in cooked food, they've been killed off. Also, cooked food creates acidic conditions in the body, leading to aging wastes; raw, on the other hand, creates more alkaline conditions that help the body naturally detox and cleanse.

People who eat predominantly raw tend to be a healthy, stable weight and have "a far better sex life." Why? Digesting tons of food can make you lethargic & tired, and you may think you want to have sex, but you don't. "Raw puts you more in touch with your body."

Some Dagger Tips on Getting Gorgeous:

* Have a celery/apple juice daily; avoid juices like carrot or beet because they are too high in sugar.

* There's more to raw than just lettuce: "People think you can only eat salads, but there are so many other things, like snacks and made with nuts, and delicious raw cheeses made from seeds & nuts.”

* For a boost of energy, try Dagger's fave breakfast: blend 1 to 2 large glasses of water with a peeled, de-seeded fresh lemon, 1 tablespoon of lecithin, some flax oil, a touch of maple syrup or honey and perhaps half a pear. "It cuts cholesterol and bad fats in the body. The lecithin, made from the good part of soy, is high in B vitamins and can actually go through the brain's barrier."

* Try High Vibe's Beauty Greens - it's a day's worth in an easy, tasty glass.

* Get lots of fresh air and exercise, but don't overdo like those gymrats who - through all their exertions - are actually aging themselves.

* Read something from three different books each day (use it or lose it!)

* Eat "Balanced" Meals: 70-80% of the plate should be made up of "water rich" foods, ie. your veggies, and only 20% or so should be denser foods like meat or rice.

When Dagger's now ex-girlfriend went on a quest for perfect skin, Dagger came up with this foolproof plan. And now, yes, she has a flawless visage.
Dagger's Top 5 Daily Secrets for Flawless Skin:

* Flax or Borage oil (1 tablespoon)
* Vegetable Silica (a supplement made from horsetail)
* High Vibe's Omni Anti-OX (an "internal" sunscreen, much like trendy pomegranate)
* MSM - nutritional sulphur widely known to be a "beauty" mineral
* Water, water....and more water

Throwback Thursday, the High Vibe Style Part 1

Welcome to Throwback Thursday #TBT High Vibe style!!

Who says this is only for photos?

We have a lot of great videos, blog posts and interviews, and it's time to share this with you, some for the second time and some for the very first time. Yes sorry, we have kept them from you...

Lets start with this beautiful put together blog post from the Bonzai Aphrodite.
She took these photos while doing Victoria Moran's Vegan Academy Class.

Here's what she has to say about High Vibe, enjoy.

"We were off and field tripping again. This time, to the East Village for a stop into High Vibe, one of the oldest raw foods shoppes in New York.

High Vibe is owned by Bob Dagger (coolest name, right?!) who is just this incredibly genuine guy. Sweet and helpful and full of knowledge, he is tops and this place is amazing. SO MUCH exciting raw goodness (may I recommend the strawberries? I brought a bag home for Waits because they were just so epically amazing!). I also snagged some chocolates and snacks, plus some Dr Cow cheese which I’ve ALWAYS wanted to try, plus some non-food items like a nut milk bag and a dry skin brush. Whew!

Please check out the whole post here: Bonzai Aphrodite

Also visit this link to a passage out of Victora Moran's book: The Good Karma Diet, where Dagger is getting mentioned by her,
for inspiring her with the High Vibe saying: 'Be As Raw As You Wanna Be".

Magical Faerie Chocolate

Faerie Chocolates are created by the wonderful Allyson Turner,
locally here in New York City.

As a self named health freak herself, Ally wanted to make certain that she was eating chocolate cooked at temperatures low enough to maintain the health
benefits and to ensure that she was getting high integrity, gluten, dairy free chocolate.

She also didn't want to be consuming a sweetener other than raw honey on a regular basis.
Well what can a girl who loves chocolate do if she only wants the best one possible?

Create her own of course!

We are happy to be selling Ally's delicious, magical chocolates at High Vibe.

Ingredients: raw organic cacao butter, raw organic cocoa powder,
raw organic honey, himalayan salt, faerie love

Chocolates come in beautiful flower shapes in a 2 oz bag.
