BEFORE COMING TO OUR HYGIENE HOMESTEAD IN THE WOODS: I contacted Victoria BidWell in May, 2014, about coming to her Nature Cure Raw Food Health Retreat for a fast. By the time I arrived at Victoria's Healing Homestead in The Woods, my symptoms from a bout with Ischemic Colitis, 4 months earlier, had subsided. The medical (allopathic) community told me there was no cure. I was told to stay well-hydrated and to avoid constipation. I was further told that if and when symptoms returned, they would be treated with "the best the doctors have to offer." My symptoms had been severe abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea several times an hour. In researching Ischemic Colitis, the standard, allopathic medical model had little to offer except suppression of symptoms while the disease slowly progresses to ever-worsening stages. The research did not use the terms Victoria uses all the time. The research did not discuss "healing" or "reversing the disease process" or "complete recovery." The research did discuss various kinds of drugs and surgery. I reviewed information on Natural Hygiene and Correct Fasting on Water-only that I had received from Victoria several years prior. I decided the very best possibility to avoid another bout of Ischemic Colitis was fasting on water-only, changing to a mostly raw food diet (80%) after fasting, and embracing The 10 Energy Enhancers suggested in Victoria's 2 BOOKS IN 1: The Health Seekers' YearBook with The Best of Common Health Sense.

In February of 2014, I had been hospitalized with a bout of Ischemic Colitis. I suffered for 12 days with rectal bleeding and severely painful cramps. My diet had been sporadically good, whole foods interspersed with several times a week pastries and coffee for breakfast and fried chicken for lunch. After being hospitalized, I cut out most dairy, coffee, pastries, and the fried chicken. I slowly began to improve. But I felt that to allow my body to fully detoxify and completely heal, a fast was absolutely necessary. Several years ago, I had fasted for 5 days on my own and knew it was difficult to do at home with food constantly available. My thinking at this time was that it would be impossible to fast successfully at home. I had read some Natural Hygiene books and had Victoria's 2 in 1 YearBook and The Live Food Factor, both of which I started reading some more of. Next, I researched on The Internet and concluded Our Hygiene Homestead would best suit my needs. AS IT TURNED OUT, IT WAS THE PERFECT CHOICE FOR ME!

Victoria and I began talking on the phone. I wanted to get a 2-week reservation. But after Victoria heard my story over a number of phone calls, she told me that 2 weeks would definitely not be enough. That I needed 6 weeks. That even 4 weeks may not get me the results I wanted. She asked if I could do 4 weeks. It was not about money but about being away from home and my wife for so long. Victoria practically begged me to do 4 weeks. She offered a discount the 4th week as an incentive to do the time. Then, she told me I must read 2 really long stories...
Greg Crook's and especially Holly Kallner's... at The Guesthouse website: www.naturecurerawfoodhealthretreat.com. Reading these stories and Victoria's urgings convinced me. I made my reservation for 3 weeks of fasting and 1 week of feeding. Come to find out, I did indeed need those additional 2 weeks beyond the 2 that I originally has planned to do.

THE 4 WEEKS AT OUR HYGIENE HOMESTEAD IN THE WOODS: So, I arrived on June 14th -- with color pictures of the outer walls of my colon in hand for Victoria to review. "Well," she commented, "they are not as bad as Little Holly Kallner's. But they definitely show the disease process has progressed well beyond the pink and healthy tissues of a normal colon!" With that, I started fasting for 21 days.

Our Homestead is a lovely 1/2-acre oasis in a small, rural subdivision boarding The Skagit River. The house is quaint, clean, and homey. My huge, "Critters' Forest" private bedroom was upstairs and very comfortable. The fasting went very well for me. Occasionally, slight hunger the first 2 to 3 days. THEN, NO HUNGER! AMAZING! I had occasional stomach discomfort like mild heartburn, only in the stomach. But it was of very short duration. I drank 2 quarts of distilled water every day. I enjoyed a housemate to the end of June. He had made his reservation a year in advance. And he was doing a 21-day fast also. He was 14 days ahead of me. It was very helpful to discuss how he experienced his fast. Victoria came over daily, usually in the evenings. She was extremely supportive and knowledgeable of the entire Natural Hygiene process. We'd usually sit on the front or back porch and enjoy the evening while discussing my fast and how it was going. Victoria had many stories to share from her more than 30 years of Natural Hygiene Health Educator experiences.
 
My housemate Terry Svolto and I spent an unforgettable evening with Victoria while we viewed the fruits of The GetWell Friends' contributions and her labor for 2 hours! We viewed the 11-DVD-DATA-DISKS she and her Digital Handyman Mike Gurevich finished. These hold the collected works of Dr. Tilden, Dr. Shelton, Dr. Vetrano and Tosca and Greg Haag, T. C. Fry, and Victoria. The work is called "The Health for The Billions Project." It began in 2008 when Dr. Vetrano gave her professional library to Victoria. Terry and Victoria and I spent a history-treking time going through the lives of T. C. Fry and Dr. Shelton. Both of these Natural Hygienists have their own websites. It was fascinating to see how Victoria's visit to a Natural Hygiene Health Retreat in 1976 led me to Our Hygiene Homestead in The Woods in 2014!

On the 22nd day of my stay, Victoria prepared 6 different juices for me in little 1/2 cup glass jars and a whole quart of cucumber-&-celery juice. I drank 1 small jar every 2 hours. THEY WERE AWESOMELY DELICIOUS! WHAT A REAL TREAT AFTER 21 DAYS OF FASTING ON WATER-ONLY! I also took a daily quart of cucumber-celery juice which was very good, as well. The next 2 days were more wonderful juices of various flavors in larger amounts, then a day of melons, and then the next day of fruits and vegetables of various kinds -- all fresh, delicious, and mostly organic! My last day here, The Wilderness Woman was in her element! She took me for a captivating tour of The American Alps, a short drive from Our Homestead. We stopped at Cascade Organic Farms and got fresh-picked-this-morning berries! On the return from The Cascade Mountains, we stopped at a wooded National Park campground on the edge of a huge lake -- absolutely green in color! We took our time and enjoyed an awesome dinner: lettuce, celery, avocado, raspberries, blueberries, cucumber, and the sweetest mangoes ever -- and I am from "Floridian Mango Country!"

In conclusion, I am happy to leave my story to share with other Health Seekers before I head out tomorrow. I HAD A WONDERFUL HEALING EXPERIENCE! It was my pleasure and honor to get to know Victoria and her handsome, smart horse -- HighJoy! He was a marvel to watch as he would dance and prance for his Natural Hygiene treats! I leave this story with high hopes that many people will come to Our Homestead to experience the healthful rest of body and mind that allows our bodies to revitalize, repair, and rejuvenate.

AN E-MAIL A WEEK AFTER LEAVING OUR HYGIENE HOMESTEAD IN THE WOODS: Hi Victoria, Thank you for my most wonderful stay at Our Hygiene Homestead. I LOVED IT! With your guidance and wonderful visits, I FEEL GREAT! I had a little difficulty leaving Seattle, however. The airplane broke. I was supposed to leave Wednesday but was delayed until Friday. Washington didn't want me to leave!

ANOTHER E-MAIL
3 WEEKS AFTER LEAVING OUR HYGIENE HOMESTEAD IN THE WOODS: Victoria! Finally made it home. I AM FEELING GREAT, EATING VERY GOOD, ABOUT 80% FRESH AND RAW! And I love the Champion Juicer you encouraged me to get! I usually start with fruit juice in morning or fresh fruit. Then, I take veggie juice for lunch, with some nuts or avocado. I end the day with a big, fresh salad for dinner. Usually, there are some slight variations. My weight has stabilized at about 173 pounds. I started at 189 pounds before the fast and ended fast at 164. I'll try to stay between 170 and 175. I HAVE LOTS OF ENERGY! And after a carrot, celery, cucumber cocktail, I FEEL HIGH!!! LIKE HIGHJOY! I hope all is well for you and that The Guesthouse is filling up. I LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT MY STAY! And though I looked forward to coming home, I miss the joy and tranquility of Our Homestead. Thanks again for everything. It was my great joy to get to know you. Love, Peace, and Ever-new Unexpected Joy, Phillip

ANOTHER E-MAIL 3 WEEKS AFTER LEAVING OUR HYGIENE HOMESTEAD IN THE WOODS: During the fast, I was pleased and amazed at how wonderful it felt TO NOT EAT and to simply allow my body the rest it required to save up the extra energy it needed to heal. I see now that my body used its own "inner nature cure wisdom." AFTER THE FAST, I FELT GREAT! NO SYMPTOMS OF DIS-EASE! And as I began to take in whole, raw foods again, I would consciously be aware of how different foods affected my energy and psychological well-being. One of the aspects I most enjoy now that I am back home is being aware that real hunger arises much less often than it ever has. Most of my perceived moments of hunger were merely the habits of eating patterns asserting their power. These patterns were usually based on imaginations and thoughts of foods or on meal times throughout the day or on something to eat to fill empty time. NOW, I EAT MUCH LESS IN QUANTITY, MUCH LESS OFTEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY, AND MUCH RAW AND MOSTLY ORGANIC FOODS THAT LEAVE ME MUCH HEALTHIER AND MUCH HAPPIER! My deep gratitude to God, to you Victoria, and for the wisdom to fast on water-only and embrace Natural Hygiene. Getting away from the usual routines in life, the 21 days of fasting, and the steady support I received from you while fasting and while transitioning back into eating again made it all a grand success story for me! 

Dear Victoria, I have shared with several others my story of fasting and the joy of being at Our Concrete Homestead and of getting to know you. Some have asked for your website. And I hope some will decide to contact you. Who knows? Some people are amazed and have never studied or considered Natural Hygiene and fasting as something for health and happiness. Now they have more "FOOD FOR THOUGHT!" Just want to mention that when you first introduced me to celery-&-cucumber juice, my mind said, "YUK!" Now? It is one of my favorite juices! Sometimes, I add carrot and tomatoes with it and love that also. Finally, I have a friend who proudly told me he had fasted for 40 days when I shared my story with him. Later he added that he had taken juices on his fast. Of course, we know that is not fasting at all. That is taking The Juice Diet. And the benefits of The Juice Diet and The Fast on Water-only differ greatly, especially the amount of detoxing and healing. I am grateful I chose the Fast on Water-only. I consider myself "HEALED!" -- as I have no more symptoms whatsoever of the Ischemic Colitis! Many do not understand the real principals behind Natural Hygiene Fasting. All is well in my Florida neck of the woods (swamp). I know you are busy. And I really enjoy it when I hear from you. May Blessings of Love, Peace and Ever-new (High) Joy Be with You and All Health Seekers, Phillip
