Day 8,9 of 14!
Day #8
Along with my low energy, I felt “emotional” today. My thoughts were how good a cup of coffee would taste on a cold, rainy, windy day like this. So how often do I attempt to cover up my feelings, with caffeine, or working out, or other diversions? So today, I sat with it. I sat with being uncomfortable, knowing this is as much part of what we are doing here, as those euphoric days.
Not too many physical changes in the last few days. It seems like I am losing about a ½ a pound a day in the last 3 days.
Although I wasn’t hungry, I was craving food. So much so I had to pick up some Braggs amino acid from Whole Foods, and while I was there I meandered around the fresh food section, just smelling, and looking. My senses are definitely heightened.
I have found this week I am horrified by the amount of non-real food we are ingesting. When you don’t actually eat, you notice finite details of what nourishes and what is in fact killing us. Look at labels folks. Time for some Veggie broth nom nom.
Day #9
The ND I am being supervised by stated this detox will start with physical manifestations and detoxing, turn to emotional releases at some point, and then spiritual. (You determine what spiritual means). I have definitely felt the release, and “seen” the release of toxic crud in my system. I released cravings, and addictions, and things I usually run to when not feeling stellar. So when you get to this place of nowhere else to go, you simply have to ask the questions. It’s like you are standing in front of yourself. Do I like myself? Do I love myself? What is my purpose here and am I fulfilling that purpose? Perhaps strange things to come out of a physical detoxification. After ten days of not eating, it has appeared my world has slowed down, and a different perspective of what is truly important.
It’s been reported that Elvis Presley had 60 pounds of impacted fecal matter in his colon. John Wayne 40 pounds!
