Taos Mountain Lifestyle Podcast

<p>Don Peters shares about the history of Not Forgotten Outreach and Vet Corps programming that NFO offer to veterans and their families. </p> <p>While visiting Don at the new Not Forgotten Outreach Headquarters (@ Corral #5 on the corner of Paseo and Placitas (Accross from Cids) ) I was able to learn about the amazing infrastructure of NFO and how it has grown exponentially since its Founding back in 2013 by Miss Kym Sanchez.</p> <p> As a Veteran of the Iraq War, Miss Kym had a vision to support military families by creating a safe space for our service men and women upon their return back home. Starting as a humble gardening project at the Taos Mens Shelter, NFO moved to a small plot on the westside of the Sunset Park, then on to create a respite for military families an old Bed and Breakfast near the Sunset Park Plot. </p> <p> Now NFO had multiple sites that offer therapeutic and educational opportunities for Vets and their Families, my favorite of which was the ecotherapy site that had an aquaponics infrastructure that can allow vets to engage in innovative styles of agriculture. Another favorite of mine was the animal husbandry aspect where one could interact with mini horses, goats, ducks, and other farm animals! </p> <p>There is much to be learned about Not Forgotten Outreach and many opportunities to volunteer or donate! </p> <p>15 Vetcorps Volunteer Positions Available and open to veterans and their family members!

<p>Cannabis as an alternative to Chemotherapy for all types of cancers is a growing trend in our Nation today. Steve Chavez is here to tell us his story of beating Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer with potent cannabis products. Steve gives us details about the diagnosis and timeline of his cancer, as well as the healingprocess from Chemotherapy to Integrative Cannabis Medicines.</p> <p>Steve Estolano Chavez is a native to New Mexico and a proud father of two amazing children. He currently lives in Taos, NM, with his loving partner Dana, where they own a thriving hand crafted tea company. Growing up, Steve watched his grandfather provide fresh produce and dairy for his family through organic farming before it was &#8220;trendy&#8221;. Steve learned biodynamic farming at a young age and ran a thriving aquaculture business in his 20&#8217;s. His extensive experience with plants and a powerful earth medicine connection has lead him to his current career path. Steve earned a degree in architectural/engineering drafting from CNM in 2010, graduating with honors. With a passion for horticulture, Steve has aligned his education with his passion for cannabis. His decades of experience and education have largely focused on engineering innovative permaculture design for individuals seeking solutions to cultivate their own medicine by natural and sustainable means.</p> <p>In April 2016, Steve was diagnosed with Stage IV Pancreatic and Liver Cancer. After the initial rounds of unsuccessful chemotherapy and surgery to remove his tumor, he turned to an integrative approach of care with a focus in cannabis medicine. Steve has been a licensed personal producer of medical cannabis for the past two years in New Mexico. In that time, he has developed a comprehension of cannabis medicine that has resulted in profound success in his own battle with major illness. With guidance from a naturopathic doctor and numerous oncologists and surgeons, and by harnessing custom blends of cannabis medicine, Steve was able to destroy all visible signs of cancer,achieving remission in August of 2018. Steve attributes his success to the power of whole plant medicine, specifically cannabis. He has become a testament to the success one can achieve by using an integrative approach to cancer treatment.</p> <p>With this as his inspiration, Self-Powered Organics was born. Steve&#8217;s greatest passion is sharing cannabis knowledge through Self -Powered Organics, a consulting company designed to assist clients with product development and medical cannabis advocacy training for individuals battling terminal illness. Self-Powered Organics is a company built on self advocacy and wellness, integrative knowledge, and a healthy cannabis lifestyle. The company specializes in the formulation of tinctures and oils for maladies ranging from anxiety to cancer. With a solid grasp of marketing know-how, retail grit, and an entrepreneurial spirit, Steve hopes to bring a fresh face to advocacy and product development within the cannabis industry.</p> <p>Cannabis Compliance Company:</p> <p>https://www.traxteamsolutions.com/the-team</p> <p>Original Introduction and Music Produced by: Neight Larcen</p> <p>https://neightlarsen.bandcamp.com/</p> <p>The post <a href="https://bisonstarnaturals.com/2018/11/04/taos-mountain-lifestyle-podcast-cannabis-instead-of-chemo-w-steve-chavez/">Taos Mountain Lifestyle Podcast: Cannabis instead of Chemo w/ Steve Chavez</a> appeared first on <a href="https://bisonstarnaturals.com">Bison Star </a>.</p>
