Here's what people are saying: Hi Tonya, I enjoyed your lecture...it's refreshing to listen to someone so dynamic and passionate. A. H. Your facial cream feels so good on my skin. Almost all facial creams bother me around the eyes, but not yours. I can happily slather it all over my eyelids, and it still feels good. Thanks for a great product!! J.R. Your crème is really wonderful. I realised that since some weeks I did not have to put the camouflage crème on my face to cover up the rough spots on my face. As there were hardly rough spots any more. Thank you for sharing your passion. Love, S Also after receiving your newsletter yesterday I tried the coconut water on my face and in my long hair after doing the rolling bed for 10mins. My scalp felt so clean and my hair felt like silk. Looking forward to doing it again when I get time in a couple of days. L and S
Hi, I attended your meeting in Brandon Fl. on Feb. 28th. I want to compliment you and your teaching. I have been a vegan since 1984 and started the 80/20 raw foods diet in 1994. I was so impressed with you having been on a vegan 100% raw foods lifestyle and of course how healthy you are and look. We teach so similar. Usually I attend meetings only to be disappointed with the speaker, but you are great. Your tenacity and diligence is an inspiration for me to move on and upgrade my lifestyle once again! I really enjoyed meeting you, hopeful I'll make it to another one of your meetings. Thank you, J.P. Hi Tonya;I just finished reading Your Right To Be Beautiful and, it is a great book. The book was easy to read and very, very informative. It encourages me to stay in the rawsome way of life. Thank you for having had the courage and motivation to write such an awesome book!!!!!! I have already started reading Beautiful on Raw and, I love it! Sincerely, P.G.
Tonya, I have read many books on raw food over the years. I own about 10 raw food books and have tried many of the uncooked recipes, but your book totally captivated my interest. I am a detailed person and am always looking for the biological explanations as to "why" we eat what do. Your book has been the most detailed about the beauty aspect which at this stage of my life is a very pivotal thing. Since I've been doing the 'raw diet', I am continually told I look much younger than my age and/or I look great for my age. I hopefully would like to continue that as I approach the second half of my life.
Your books has been confirmation that I am heading in the right direction. Thank you for not being afraid to give detailed step by step instructions in how to become more beautiful, something few women will reveal. M. G. Your facial cream feels so good on my skin.

I am faithfully using the amazing skin rejuvenator and loving it. Your face crèmes are the best - actually both Jim and I are using it, as well we each
have our own facial brush we ordered from you! I brush my body with a
different brush. And if that isn't good enough, I use the paragon hand held
rake and spoon. Together with my exercises, it keeps me busy but totally
worth it. You are brilliant! I love the feel of the castor oil on my lips
after brushing them. I have a good routine going. Thanks. –H.F. Hi Tonya, I enjoyed your lecture...it's refreshing to listen to someone so dynamic and passionate. A. H.

"Thanks so much for speaking at the Ladies Retreat. You are a wonderful speaker and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you. I could have listened to you for hours. Thanks for making me appreciate what I have, not to take things for granted." - Sheila Pettie
"Thank you so much for your presentation last evening at Lorene's home. You are such a beautiful person and we really got a lot out of your seminar. Can't wait to delve into your books. I'm at work right now, but just wanted to take a second to thank you for your knowledge and determination and perseverance. You have overcome more than the average person I believe and the knowledge you have acquired is priceless. Thanks for sharing it." -Glory Walker
"Just a little note to say thank you for the great class at Whole Foods. You are very inspiring and so knowledgeable. Some of the raw food info out there is a little hard to get but you really know the facts. You are more beautiful in person then your pictures. What a great figure too. Your hair is lovely. I know I'm a hairstylist for 25 years and have seen a lot of hair. I tried to eat seaweed but had a hard time with the smell. Is there a way around the smell? Some of the green powders contain seaweeds. Please write back if you have the time and I hope to have the privilege of seeing you again some day. Your friend in the Rawsome life." -Patty Moreno
"Hello Tonya, I bought both books last night at your presentation and began reading as soon as I got home! I so appreciate your approach to this way of self care. It is not based on emotion, though emotion is involved. It is not based on groundless philosophy or psychotic notions, but on the truth of body function and consumption. You have equipped me with in depth knowledge and realistic insight, something I've been searching for in this Raw Food movement. Finally I believe I have what is needed to be successful. Thank you so much for sharing all your hard work with me. I'll let you know how it goes. With Much Respect and Gratitude," - Fiona Blasius "I attended your seminar in San Diego on December 3. Just 10 minutes ago, I finished reading "Your Right To Be Beautiful." I loved the book and think it was one of the most informative books I've ever read. I loved all the quotes you added, the recipes, and the resources too. Attending your seminar was a day well spent and I am thrilled to begin my own rawsome lifestyle. Thank you for your inspirational seminar!"- Phyllis "I hope you enjoyed your California tour. I loved your books and lecture. I have been reading your books and love them. Of all the "raw gurus" you seem to help me the most. I spoke to you in Huntington Beach about the consultation. I am still interested in speaking with you for a half of hour on Dec. 30 when you will be back. I would like you to help me make a plan to be more beautiful. Thank you very much"- Leona Christensen Hi Tonya! Thank you SO much for coming to Chicago and speaking at Cousin's. You were delightful, informative, and inspiring! I love the humor with which you present your information - my meat and potatoes boyfriend did not at all feel alienated from the subject matter, and appreciated where your husband was at in his health journey. He is now interested in adding some more raw to his diet. I will take so much away from this event, and know many others will as well. oh, and you are even more beautiful in person!"- Shannon Morris "Hi Tonya, I really enjoyed your talk tonight. It was different from a lot of raw food talks I've been to, and it was very informative, and I am amazed about your research. I learned a lot and was very glad I was there. I am going to start that facial brushing tonight. Thanks." --Carol Rodgers "It was great this week to have Tonya as a guest on Raw Dish! talk show, but seeing her in action during a lecture was amazing. She's got that gift of being able to speak very confidently and yet very disarmingly. Also, she knows her information inside and out". -Stephen Parker, www.rawdish.com Raw Food Blog, Raw Food News and Raw Food Living "I was at your lecture on Kimberton Whole Foods in Kimberton, Pa. on Sunday. I really enjoyed your lecture. I like the way you put it regarding health and beauty. I can tell you are very educated and you have done a lot of your own research. Your words, your beauty, and your youthfulness have inspired me to get back on all raw and stay with it. I am going to start a support group that will meet at Kimberton Whole Foods at least once or twice a month. I am excited! Thank you for doing what you do - traveling the country educating people on the raw food diet. You are helping to make a better world!!" -Lisa Straub "Dear Tonya: I just returned from your wonderful lecture at the Nubian Village in Richmond. I loved hearing your stories, but most of all I appreciated your achievements in health. You are very beautiful and a good example for all of us. Thank you for serving the delicious chard and mango pudding. I will definitely try to make that at home. Thanks so much for your work!"- Marcia Perkins "Thanks so much for the talk and the inspiration! Even my boyfriend has been 100% raw since the talk, eating mostly green "puddings"!" -Love, Nicoletta "Hi Tonya, I saw you at “One World Cafe” in Baltimore, MD with my friend, Leroy Bell, MD. I wanted to introduce him to you after the talk but we were out of time. Throughout your talk I kept asking him if the various facts you were presenting from a medical perspective were true or untrue and on every count he said you were correct. I thought you would like to hear that another Medical Doctor agreed with your research and results. LeRoy is on a 21 day raw challenge now which ends Thursday. Your information was very helpful to both of us. Thanks again…." Another Raw Beauty Joyce "JJ" Fontenot, CPMSM, CPCS
"Dear Tonya, I just wanted to say what a pleasure it was meeting you and Nick on Sunday at Pure Food and Wine. You made all of us laugh so much and the two hours went by so quickly!"-Alicia Matz "I was greatly inspired by your talk and am enjoying your books. I want to disprove the French woman's credo that at a certain age you have to either sacrifice your face or your body. Your appearance certainly belies this statement. Thank you for your pioneering work in this area." --Susan "Your seminar last Thursday (Palm Desert, CA) was very good! I thought you looked so healthy, fit, and beautiful, and you were most articulate. I've been reading your book almost non-stop on Sunday and really, really enjoyed your writing style and already learned a lot. I also liked your mentioning other well-known women and that you gave other health gurus good publicity. The quotes throughout your book I also loved."-Mieke Hays
