3rd Day of Mini Cleanse

Today is my last day of this little cleanse that I am doing, and I am feeling great overall loads of energy and it seems that my dreams are back loud and clear because I was dreaming all night. All seemingly about projects and things that I should be doing or following through with some plans that I have made.

Perhaps this cleanse has been all about clearing things off of my 'to do' list, because that is what I seem to be doing quite a bit. And even the weather has not been as bad as was predicted so that has been a bonus as well because I have been able to get out into the garden and pull some weeds.

Today I am also busy cooking (go figure, while fasting LOL) and have made honey oat bread, fairy cakes for the kids and prepared a lamb tagine which will go into the slow cooker to cook overnight so that it is ready for breakfast in the morning.

I love my breakfast and always look forward to eating after a fast - the planning phase is probably far more fun than anything as I find that I dream up new ways of doing things and tasty recipes when winding down from my fast.

If you haven't yet tried to do a fast, I cannot say it enough - food, fast and feast has changed my life and the way I look at food (and even the way I look apparently as I was told last night that I looked about 25!). Order The Pagan Diet and get started on your journey to better health in a slim body!

Have a lovely day,

April

The Pagan Diet - Food, Fast & Feast!

Today is a Fasting Day

After having spent the weekend cooking, baking, harvesting and eating lots of rich foods - I was ready for a break this morning. It is actually really nice - a break from the cooking and preparation of food, leaving the kitchen clean for the day as well as giving my digestion a break and only taking in water and herbal teas.

It just feels so natural - like I have found my balance through giving my body permission to empty out instead of constantly eating. What was worse about those days of overeating was that I felt I had to or should - eat every single day. It turns out that this was such an unhealthy attitude towards diet and nutrition and only now have I got it right.

Never before in the history of the world has food been so available and out of season food grown and flown anywhere we would like it. The food pushers are no different than drug dealers - keep us full, fat and unhealthy - and you can nearly do anything. We are not paying the slightest bit of attention!

So, now, with an empty tummy I can contemplate my life, plan my day and accomplish many different tasks. The top one amongst them is to be clean - inside as well as outside!

Well, off to go for my walk, have a great day,

April
