I first came across this blogger about a year ago.  Her web site, Writing the Cyber Highway was wonderful.  I was immediately engaged by the writing style and design of her site.  As I spent time reading her posts, her story gradually came out, and what a story it is.  Inspiring, touching, truly amazing.  Her posts there became less frequent and then one day I understood why.   She had launched a new blog in a different niche.

Since then, most of my followings of her have been through her newer site, which I’ve chosen as a most deserved new blog of the week.  Her blog is really a great place to visit.  I literally feel more healthy just by visiting the site.  It is a very busy site with a lot of things going on.   But don’t worry that it’s spammy-busy.  It’s not.  It is just filled with all kinds of great things about being healthy.  And, she does it in a fun way.  She is obviously so enthused and inspired by what she is doing that it becomes contagious.

Here are some excerpts from recent posts:

I’m so grateful to be where I am today. I’m not perfect by any means. I still have some pudge I’d like to get rid of. I still suffer with a bad back (from domestic violence). But I’m so much better than I ever thought I’d be.

And as I type this, barely able to see the screen through my tear-filled eyes, I want you to know that there is hope for a brighter tomorrow. It may not be easy. It doesn’t happen overnight. But the sun will shine on your life and health – if you’ll dedicate yourself.

And like Alissa, I’m here to share my journey and provide inspiration and hope. Please don’t give up. Hold on. Hold on tighter than ever before. – From A Package and A story

Hi, y’all! I do hope you’ve been having a fantabulous Fall so far! It’s been pretty cold and rainy here in Amish country, but we’ve had some beautiful days, too. And the leaves have such vibrant hues—so pretty!

Raw Juice Girl has been SWAMPED, let me tell you! Packages are arriving fast and furious, like crazy! Don’t get me wrong, I’m tickled pink. But it will take me a little time to wade my way through the upcoming reviews. The ones in this post I’m sharing today, are just the most recent arrivals!  from Packages, Samples and Reviews, oh my!

In addition to running a huge number of contests, when she whips up a recipe, she takes a lot of great photos to show every step.

Also, there is so much to love about her in addition to her great blog and writing style.  You would be very hard pressed to find a more sincere, loyal, fantabulous engager in the social media arts.  She leaves great comments and she responds to every commentator on her blog.

Geez, with all that going on, how could this not be the new blog of the week?

Everyone, I’m pleased to introduce Michele L Tune and Healing with (raw) Juices as the New Blog of the Week.

Congrats, Michele!  Enjoy your reign!
