Green smoothie this morning and veggie wraps for lunch. I'm realizing the less cooked food you eat the better you feel! And then I've been in the mix full- on for week two, which has been great. Today I discovered the straight water to be too harsh for me. So I'm adding a little strained lemon juice and a little maple syrup and a little cayenne and it feels just right. I feel I can still participate fully in the fast but also do the things I need to do today. It's incredibly helpful just knowing there are other people out there doing this. And the prescribed menus and shopping lists really get me out of my own head about it all.- Addy. Note from Jinjee: This section is from one session of the 2. Day Cleanse when three or four women were particularly active sharing their blogs. I've changed their names but kept them consistent as characters so you can see a bit of their individual journeys as well as how they supported each other. I have stuck to the recipes pretty much fully (apart from an ingredient or two here or there that I had to replace). It was my husband's birthday on Wednesday and I made a conscious decision to share a couple of glasses of proseco and boy did that feel good!!! No guilt feelings at all as the decision came from a place of full awareness. What is Raw Dog Food? By Patrick Mahaney, VMD. Is it possible to make a raw food diet for dogs? In a word, yes. But first you must understand what is raw dog food. Homemade raw food gives you control over what's in your cat's food. It is very economical. It takes a little time and equipment, but it's worth it!

The Best Organic Raw Food Essentials including Super Foods, Raw.However, the next day I paid for it. My entire energetic field had changed and I was 'dulled'- it was so so obvious, never felt the effects of alcohol so clearly, the way it was working through me. Anyway, all in all I have to say that so far, I feel that my spirit and mind have 'opened up' to Source in a very powerful way. The frustrating/distressing fog (that you talk about catinthetree) lifted about 4 or 5 days ago. However, my physical body does feel limp, I do not have the energy that I would like to have. I have not done much exercise other than some gentle yoga, it's like my whole system just slowed down over these last couple of weeks and I focused on being in the now with my food intake and immediate concerns. I really did not have much appetite for rigorous movement. MY EYESIGHT HAS WITHOUT QUESTION IMPROVED!!! An absolute wow for me and I look forward to the next 4 weeks with you Jingee, on the transition programme. By the way, the best meal I have had so far must be the felafels, they tasted better than 'real' thing. Blew my mind. Thank you thank you thank you x- Anastasia. Holy moly.. some real break throughs today. The raw food diet includes uncooked and unprocessed whole plant-based, ideally organic foods. Uncooked foods should make up 75% of the person's diet. How much does it cost? A raw food diet can be pricey. Organic ingredients tend to cost more than other types, and not every grocery store carries a wide array of raw. I hit an all time low, cried really hard about how unhappy I was and now, I feel better than I have in days! Reading the work of Byron Katie really helped. I am so glad I was introduced to this.. Jinjee! Its inspirational and thought provoking and I managed to read exactly the articles I needed tonight. A couple of side notes - not sure how much weight I have lost at this point but last I checked it was 9 lbs. Also, my resting heart rate was 6. I started this cleanse and now it is 5. No wonder I have been experiencing such massive shifts, my body truly is changing, things are moving and shifting and altering. It makes so much sense tonight! I do miss cooked food - but I cant imagine going back to it! Today I daydreamed about french fry nachos, I even described them to my son who was looking at me like i was crazy. But then I made myself that awesome quiche dinner and thought to myself - nothing can taste as good as fresh. I was totally satisfied.. I'm feeling a bit sore from it, which is nice. Today I had a couple bananas sprinkled with hemp seeds and ceylon cinnamon for breakfast, and a rather rich smoothie with pineapple and coconut and a bunch of seeds for lunch. I'm still sort of trying to figure out what my body wants. Like I knew they would taste amazing with the homemade red currant vanilla jelly I made, but I also knew that it would not affect me well, so in the end it wasn't that big of a temptation. I bought a bunch of goodies from the shop today, so I'm wondering what I want to make for dinner. I think I will go with the tomato soup, since the lunch smoothie was so filling. I don't have one at home in my tiny kitchen!)- Lydia. Yesterday I ended up making myself some almond mylk in the late afternoon, and found it quite satisfying. I still didn't feel like eating much of anything, and continued to do a lot of clearing work with my friend. I did have a few pieces of fruit over the course of the evening, but mostly just drank water. Today I also didn't feel much like eating. I had a small fruit salad in the morning, which wasn't very satisfying for some reason. During the course of the day, I noticed more feelings of hunger, but when I felt into what I actually wanted to eat, nothing sounded good. I picked some berries in the yard and ate a few, and finally made myself a rather watered down smoothie with raspberries, a banana, some leftover fruit salad from the morning (mostly blueberry and a little black currant), and about 1/4 of an avocado. It went down nicely, and then I also had a bowl of sprouts with another 1/4 avocado, and a bit of kim chi. Emotionally I am feeling a bit better, the sadness has lifted a bit. Physically I am a bit sore in the sides from a detox yoga session I did the other day (lots of twisting!)Mood is sort of calm.- Tanya. Hardest two days I have had on this entire cleanse. It is worth mentioning that I started menstruating the day after the water fast. Then yesterday was my sisters birthday and we all went out to dinner where everyone was drinking beer, eating burgers and fries and I sat there - feeling pretty deprived and negative. I experienced very low energy, I was lethargic and just felt run down. Also, had a really hard time thinking clearly and focusing. I have just been out of it. Social situations have been a struggle, keeping up with my son has taken all the energy I can muster. Also, for the first time on this cleanse, today I turned to cook food. My son had a burrito for lunch and I took a hefty bite - it didn't even taste that good but I kept going eating about half the burrito before i finally stopped. I know why I did it - I felt so empty! Normally, I have been enjoying this feeling, but today it felt awful - i just wanted to feel full and that burrito certainly did it, but only for a moment before my stomach started to hurt and my heart started to race and I immediately regret it. I felt low all afternoon after that until finally, I ate a handful of almonds - then I started to perk up. I still haven't sorted through all the reasons for the cravings, perhaps I really did just need more calories or maybe just to lay down and rest! Also - there must be an association between feeling empty and feeling . Maybe I have a fear of being thin..? Maybe its just completely out of my comfort zone - a lot of things on this diet are! I started reading some of the recommended readings which really have helped. I needed some perspective - there is a bigger lesson here for me. I also had a few moments today where I realized my body is trying to release something. I weighed in today at 1. I have been in over a decade. The release of these toxins and extra weight could also cause the release of emotions and deeply rooted events. I had this epiphany today as I was driving, and thinking about food. I thought that if I could just stick with it, go easy on myself.. I have learned alot about one's . I actually stopped today to listen, I actually realized that something was shifting, I was changing and that part felt so good. Tomorrow is a new day.- Lydia. This (another post from Tanya) is from an incredibly beautiful and naturally thin woman who regularly participates in the programs. I learned from her posts that part of her beauty is from her ability to really feel and accept her sadness and everything she is going through emotionally and physically. She is an artist, and I think that goes along with the artistic side of our nature once we tap into it. It seems that she sometimes has no desire to eat. I think it's good that she honors that when it happens. We've all been a little conditioned to fear loss of appetite, but maybe sometimes it can be helpful, like when we need our energy for things other than digestion. I feel so incredibly sad. I woke up at 3am last night feeling so.. I don't even know what . I deactivated my FB account and fell back asleep sometime before 5, I think. It's like I've released everything.. I thought I would wake up ravenous this morning and be excited to have some fruit or something, but instead I feel nothing, no desire to eat, just watching the fruit wilt on the counter. I'm making myself some warm water with a inch of salt, maybe that will help. I had low energy all day. I didn't push myself to do too much - I sat down a a lot, took breaks and am going to bed early tonight. I did practice the yogi cleansing breathes and a couple others listed in the recommended reading that was part of today's exercise. I used to practice Kundalini yoga regularly which included lots of breathing exercises. It felt SO good to revisit that. Even just holding my breath for a few seconds made a big difference in the way I felt, my energy, and everything.
