Day 8 - Starting to Detox & Lighten Up
8 Days into the fast
Date: 1/18/2015 10:42:10 PM ( 9 y ) ... viewed 1035 times It's the 8th day of my fast now, for the first time I am seeing a very white tongue and feeling much lighter & very good - a bit of that fasting elation feeling of blissful freedom and inspiration now - I think because I've done so many fasts & specifically long fasts in the past, it takes me the first week for my body to really get into it & recognize the fast. These things used to happen a little quicker perhaps, but then who knows, every fast is its own journey.
I'm feeling very glad I'm doing this and have embarked, thoughts I've had are that I might do a longer than ever fast this time, last time went for 60 days, this one I might try 90 or even 4 months - we'll see how it progresses, there is no controlling in my mind the fast, just following the fast and my feeling. I did the 60 days last year quite easily though, & this first week has felt like just a day or two - I enjoy these long fasts and journeys back to my self, youth, health, etc. I find them very empowering, revitalizing and just wonderful.
I did a lot of long bushwalks last week - & have been gently starting on some yoga and kettlebells - this week I want to progress with that and get back to my normal yoga routine that had become very broken over a too busy 2014 - the kettlebells are a pretty new thing, very effective! I want to gently work up to doing at least 100 kettlebell swings a day, doing 20 or 30 already - just know that if I do all 100 in a day, I'll be hobbling around for a few afterwards, seems easy at the time, but recovery does kick in later ;) Better to work up to 50 than 80 etc and not rush it. Doing some dance as well - a bit of using my Bullworker - etc... Besides that I have a house to clean to get ready for 2 very special guests next week, some Transcription work - always stuff to do but lucky at the moment to have quite a lot of free time to go inward and get my body strong and healthy as well as my energy & soul.
Bought a bunch of expensive grapes and a few bunches of coriander yesterday - had to spend the weekend just past in the city, big 4 hour trip each way from the beautiful rural setting I'm living in now - had a big work weekend on there cleaning and moving furniture, making up rooms in a couple houses I rent out - went really well tho, did a great jog & stuck to the fast & had a nice time of it - think I'll do one grape-carrot-coriander juice a day as that's a really good combo for energy, detox of heavy metals and think it will be quite nice combo as well - maybe I've got 3 days worth there & will also start with a couple coffee enema sessions this week - haven't done one yet, but it's a very good thing anytime & certainly now that I can see the white tongue & that I'm really detoxing. Generally looking forward to a lovely week just continuing to deepening into this fast as described.
