The Ann Wigmore Natural Health Institute is one of the primary bases for the Living Foods movement in the world. It was Dr. Ann Wigmore's spiritual home, where she wrote much of her later work, as well as a nexus point for thousands of souls active in the world Raw Food community, including David Wolfe, Rhio, Victoria Boutenko, David Jubb, Viktoras Kulvinskas, Joseph Custer, and many more.

In keeping with that tradition, we are pleased to provide an electronic gathering place for the Living Foods community. On these pages, we will provide free tools for you to "Rebuild, Reconnect, Rejuvenate" online.

Email Discussion Groups:
Email Discussion Groups are forums in which interested parties (who join using their email addresses) can post questions, comments, or replies to the other participants on the list. Any email sent to the "list" is sent to all the subscribers. Some of these forums are organized by topic and others by region. These forums allow people to exchange Living Foods Lifestyle ideas and recipes, share personal experiences, post news about upcoming events, and generally support each other.

As these lists have very light traffic, you should subscribe to all the lists that may be pertinent to your interests or region. You can unsubscribe at any time.
