The Musings of a Gypsy Yogini

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night!

…and I’m doing great… day 6 on the Master Cleanse.

I have learned a lot while on this adventure— yes, adventure.

It’s a total commitment. The juice tastes suprizingly good. I cannot watch TV. I’ve had to learn on a deeper level the difference between body hunger and mind hunger. It’s almost always my mind.In all honesty, I haven’t been truly hungry even once. As soon as I feel a little hunger pang, I do as directed and have a glass of the lemonade. It totally wipes it out.

I feel cleaner, alert, light, and centered. I just can’t go to the gourmet grocery store again to get more maple syrup. That’s too much right now. I was there earlier, and there were free samples of everything everywhere. Had to get the syrup and run!

So, I have just 4 more days to go and I will have completed the minimum of 10 days for total cleanse benefits. I’ve threatened to carry it out longer— and I may… but right now I’m thinking I won’t. It takes 4 more days post-cleanse to get back on a full day of solid foods. The first day I’m off I get to eat navel oranges!!! Anyone that knows me knows this thrills me. I love them. I meditate as I slowly peel them and savor them slowly…. mmmmm…. just thinking of them…..

Anyway! I’m also headed to Atlanta in about 2 weeks- and there’s no way I’ll be skipping the lovely food possibilities while I’m there!

I’m shocked at my ability to do this at all. I don’t think it would have been possible had I not spent about 2 weeks mentally preparing myself.

And that’s all for now.
