Our Healing Journey
We are two sisters at different stages on our Gerson healing journey. It took us a while to search, find, pin, download and save all the information related to food being our medicine but we longed for ONE place where we have everything at our fingertips.
This is why we created this site. A one-stop page for us and for you to enjoy! We are sisters but still very different. One lives on the East Coast and one lives on the West Coast. One is an extrovert and one is an introvert. One is a passionate cook and one used to be passionate about eating out. Interestingly enough, we both ended up on the same healing journey. At some point we became more and more health cautious and changed our families diet to an organic vegetarian, almost vegan, sometimes raw one. Reading David Wolfe's books, we came to watch the Food Matters movie. Andrew Saul made a big impact and of course that older lady in the Food Matters Movie, who was so calm, knowledgable and inspiring, sitting on her orange chair in front of her fireplace in her living room - Charlotte Gerson. A personal story from a friend who's mother had been to the Gerson Clinic in Mexico brought the pieces together. The centrifugal juicer got replaced with a more efficient one and bits and pieces of the Gerson Therapy became part of the new and healthier lifestyle. With some health problems and cancer left and right in the family history, it seemed like a smart choice and we became the "Gerson Girls". We were very fortunate to have meet Charlotte Gerson in person while sitting on her orange chairs in front of her fireplace in her living room. Even in her old age she is truly an inspiring lady with a wonderful sense of humor and a heart of gold. We are so thankful for her dedication to keep her father's work alive and to spread the knowledge. We are blessed to have each other as sisters and as our support. We are able to relate to the highs and lows that come with this healing journey. We learned so much about the food being our medicine, ourselves and our body's ability to heal. We hope this website will be a great guide for you on your own healing journey. Heal yourself. One bite at a time. The Gerson Girls |
