Day 3
Today was a doozy!! Unlike the uneventful first two days today I felt mild intermediate detox symptoms. My legs were sore, my knees ached and near the end of my night I had a restless leg type situation. My honey rubbed them which felt abnormally HEAVENLY!!!! Like seriously, it felt SO GOOD!! I am chronicling this journey with video...which I may or may not upload. But yeah...today was a bit uncomfortable to say the least. I need to rest, but I'm ignoring that in favor of OITNB. Ah well... G'Nite!

My 30 Day Juice Fast
"I need a vacation!"
I can’t take a physical one right now, so I am going on a
journey within. I am going on a 30 day juice fast. I have fasted before –
different kinds and for various reasons, but at some point I lost myself in
it. It was easy enough to do a 10 day
fast, so I’d just do them and then after coming down I’d eventually walk if not
run back to my previous life. That was
sprinkled with fast food, diet soda and “incompletes”. Don’t get me wrong, I included a good number
of health-full habits in my life, but not enough to counter the effects of
eating fake foods and failing to follow through. I was finally ready to be done with my old
lifestyle. It wasn’t serving its
purpose. I wasn’t happy. Hell I didn’t even
have enough energy to make it through my days.
So I decided that I will fast and change. This fast is to give myself a reset of
sorts. It helps me to clean out years of
neglect, abuse and accumulation. It gives
me an opportunity to release some old pent up energy and gives me the space to
create a new thing!! This fast is as
much as about my body as it is about my soul.
I expect that every truth that I encounter on this fast will translate
across levels of my being. I abstain
from food with the greatest respect and love for my body. And deep reverence and awe for the spirit
within it. I am allowing myself to be
transformed. Join me on my journey…
