Woo-weee…. where to start.I’m glad to be back to Georgia, but going to Hollywood was… well… “life-changing.” I know it may sound kind of cliche, but this trip was definitely a milestone in my life. The reason is because I had no idea how many people actually read and respsected my newsletter. It was a lot more than I ever suspected.Many people that I looked up to - read my newsletter! Quite shocking really, but very rewarding.I made a short video about my trip. It’s about 10 minutes long, but I can assure you that it’s well worth viewing and shows what is to come with chidiet.comPlease let me know what you think. Leave me a comment below. :)

Hello Jim,
Thank you very much for your video recapping your trip to LA. I am so glad you had the experience, met wonderful people, and mostly I am glad you found out how important the work you do is to so many.

Jim, as I watched this, I had to laugh, but it put you in great company!!
Years ago I saw an interview of the great Mickey Mantel. He touched on the $$ being made today and stated that in the 60s, the Yankee’s offered him 60K a year to play and he jumped right on that (that WAS alot of money back then!!). Hee went on to say, “the joke was on them! Did you see who they let me out there on that baseball field with??? I’D HAVE DONE IT FOR FREE!!!”
I thank you for just beig Jim Carey! They chose to put great information in capable hands at CHI!

Thank you for posting the video about your trip. You mentioned the CHI home study course and Dr Ann . Have you ever asked the people reading your newsletter if anyone has, or knows anyone that has any home movies with or about Dr Ann Wigmore that they would like to share with you ? There must be people that met Dr Ann or went to her clinic or a lecture she spoke at that took home movies for themselves.
I know of a 1988 2 hr video called HEALTH THROUGH LIVING FOODS, New Energy with Wheatgrass and Sprouts. It is Elizabeth Clare Prophets interview with ANN WIGMORE. I hope there are a lot of older home videos out there just waiting to be seen again .
Thanks again for all the time and effort you give to your news letter and sending it out to us .

Hi Jim,
when I was out for my morning walk I was thinking….I haven’t heard from Jim since he left for the film festival. I need to email him. so low and behold when I booted up here was your video. Thank you. I wanted to go so bad but I was taking a concrete sculpture class that weekend that I had signed up for ages ago before I even heard of the film festival. I’m wondering if you can tell me which were your top favorite films? The most informative for the public. I would like to purchase some to show to my community but don’t know where to start. I won’t hold to to it because I know you won’t want to be playing favorites but it would really help me.
Thanks, Sandy
PS. I’m in Davis California (near Sacramento)

How refreshing to hear you talk … to finally see the ‘human’ behind the newsletter. I am so glad you have many people read your news and it enjoy it like I do.
Your description sure makes me wish I could of been there. Thank you so much for sharing. Next time, if you do find time, bring your camcorder and take videos of the crowds, the food, whatever. I am so glad I am in your ‘circle.’ Finding Ann Wigmore has changed my life … I just started rewatching all the videos .. and the magic is still there. Thank you for keeping her alive.
Aloha.

Hi I am so glad you are here to teach people like me a better way of eating to live a healthy life . I am glad you had a good time on your trip and made a vedio to let us see your beaming heart. I have been reading all I can about this subject. But what about making more weight loss books. Thanks again

Thank you Jim Carey for continuing the legacy of Dr. Ann Wigmore! I enjoy the videos here on this website! What you and all the other living food people are doing is excellent and I totally appreciate it! I need to start as well, but so far I haven’t found anywhere in Kingston that sells wheatgrass! :( That won’t deter me though! Keep up the great work and CONGRATS on receiving a Green Apple Award!

Can you make this video available for download? I don’t have the best internet connection and it’s hard to watch some of these (especially if they are very long). I notice that some that you post can be downloaded and some can’t. Thanks

Thanks for keeping us informed.
Keep up the good work you are appreciated.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience at the festival. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed my town of Los Angeles. You are my inspiration and I thank you for all you do and the continual work you do for the health of America.
Lulu Belle you are adorable!!

Dear Jim, A friend called from Costa Rica today to tell me that an acquaintance there had brought her a book on detoxing with raw food. I immediately thought of you, that the work you have been doing for years is a primary impetus for the awareness of raw food that is spreading around the world, a revolution in thought about diet. It’s great that you enjoyed the trip and were recognized for the work you do; now that experience is setting off more ripples around the world. I’m glad I’m included in your outreach. Best Regards,
Junebird

Hello Jim,
I have just connected with your work, and I feel such a warmth for you….thankyou so much for all of the truth, passion and commitment you have offered through your life work. I live in Australia and about to open the first all raw cafe here in Australia. I am so excited about how far reaching this movement back to nature goes. My daughter and I returned from a 3 month journey in Jan. from Patagonia Arizona visiting the Tree of Life, as you can imagine, life changing.
In spirit and gratitude Jim love Remedy
