Make Room for Change...Step One....

It's been a busy day all around and I am only getting to my blog now...but it's also been a good day - although progress can sometimes be hard work. We are moving right along from our fasting days having already switched into a little food day.

Late yesterday and early today we transitioned onto our juices and got our well cleansed guts going once again with some yummy homemade smoothies. This is the only time we really drink them - so it's always such a treat.

As usual the days after our fast are quite intensive with all the old (and soon to be new) patterns merging to be both broken and re-aligned into something far better and healthier for our lives. Right now I can see some changes that are likely to be made in the near future for me.

One of my biggest patterns to be worked on has been overall resistance to even moving forward at all - which was a physical thing - I could feel it in my body and have been working at it all month to both release and resolve.

The Yoga has done wonders, taken together with the days spent fasting and detoxing - proving to be just the right combination to get deeper into both the tissues and the issues! LOL Never underestimate the power of your body to undergo a transformation process when necessary.

Speaking from my own experience, our bodies seek change - in a healthy direction of course and only want what is best for us. With the goal of keeping body and soul together on the same plane. Or perhaps it's to reunite these missing, broken and pushed down pieces of our beings once and for all.

It's still early days after this fast, however, the most important thing is to have created the space for an energy shift to take place. Once that room is made in your life - Universal energy not liking a vacuum, will quickly move to fill in this void. 

Detox, cleansing and energy work ensures it gets filled appropriately - integrating some higher aspects of ourselves. And that, is what makes all of this worthwhile.

Free Will & Human Consciousness

Today there is an interesting energy about and it's only early lol! I can't help but wonder about the future - it's as if something huge is hanging in the balance being decided right now. The result of time and energy spent dreaming something new into reality.

Some part of humanity has been missing for so long we have forgotten what it is or that we even had it. These pieces of our collective consciousness are what gives us free will, the power to decide our own fate and even to create the world we choose to live in.

Nothing will remain hidden for much longer. The energy of the planet has been steadily raising -- never before on earth have we seen so many seeking, asking deep questions of themselves and trying to reconnect with their hearts desires. 

Perhaps we now have the luxury in our modern society to pursue these things, but I see it a little differently. The moment of truth is upon us with many people waking up to the thinking -- it's now or never and there is nothing left to lose. 

The end result of having all rights, freedoms and liberty taken away from us has backfired - mainly because human DNA will win out in the end. We are coded to live our dreams, follow our hearts and have an inborn desire to create something better. 

We eventually reach a fork in the road where our thinking matures into - Do what I came here to do or be miserable. 

The most important work to be undertaken once such a decision is made, is to clear out all the old patterns, energy, and structures put into place to keep us back. There appears to be a lot of energy tied up counteracting any rise in consciousness. 

There are far too many in positions of power who are so used to people not exercising their free will -- or even realizing this is an inherent part of being human - and they want things to continue as they are. 

All the more reason for change!

Ahh, Saturday!

I don't know about you but I love Saturday morning, it is distinct and different from any other morning of the week. We wake up and are free, easy and buzzing with energy. No other morning gives me the same feeling as this day.

I have been pondering this fact all morning considering I have baked bread, made a dinner for the kids (for later in the day), done a good workout, turned out ducks, geese and turkeys and had breakfast so far this morning. I just feel so much more efficient or something.

So what is this 'or something' - I think it is content. My family is all here with me, we are going about our routines, doing each of our chores and the house feels happy. Perhaps the house is delighted to have us all together as well.

But, there does seem to be a little bit more to this feeling too - Saturday means food for us, farmers markets, shopping, fresh produce and little treats throughout the day. I can't remember if it has always meant this - I don't think so, these feelings are entirely my own.

A new pattern.

Yet, I do realize this must harken back to some ancient time in our DNA and history, because for millennia humans in our part of the world anyway, have traded and shopped at community markets and fairs each week. Maybe even on this day.

After finishing our Master Cleanse we are feeling pretty good - better then good actually! For the first time in so long, I noticed yesterday how I have no stiffness in my knees or hips at all. Another side affect of fasting and these workouts.

I actually feel younger and freer within myself and of course I am going to do what it takes to feel like this every day! If this is the final outcome from a few days spent fasting, detoxing and intensely working on myself - then bring it on. 

I have not ever done something so worthwhile and as satisfying (expect perhaps having a baby at home on my own! LOL). Anyway, life is good and I feel great.

Have a happy Saturday out there

My cat has decided he wants the date squares! He's patiently waiting for one...

Ahhhh Day 10!

We have done it once again - you'd think after so many of these cleanses we would be so used to a detox, however there are never two alike. Each time I have done an intensive detox or a Master Cleanse, it has been significantly different from any of the others.

Of course there are many markers and points along the way which can be considered to be predictable. I have identified several patterns which will arise during a 10 day MC, which may not take place with a shorter one for instance. 

One pattern is what I have come to refer to as the detox cycle, every three days or so, the body appears to go into a deeper push to remove these embedded toxins. This starts off with the first day feeling a surge of energy, second day your mind/emotions kick in forcing you to consider deeper aspects of an issue, while the third day it all comes together as the pattern unravels. 

It's all quite interesting really. Then there are other patterns of resistance which are expected to come up as well. Every couple of days the mind wanders to 'why am I doing this exactly' or 'is this enough already'? LOL

Of course this work (detox/cleanse/spirituality) all comes back to our minds. We often relegate these parts of ourselves to the back burner and spend a lot of our time and energy doing things to get out of mind and into some other space. However, if I have learned anything over the past 18 months or so of regular cleanses, it has been how much of a key player our mind is.

In absolutely everything we do, all that we are and want to be.

If there is one thing I can say I am most pleased with as an outcome of doing each of these cleanses and detoxes month after month - it would be the fact of my mind coming back into line with my dreams, hopes, wishes, body and health.

For so long I felt as if there was a battle going on. I wouldn't say that battle is fully over (it could be??), but I certainly am on the winning team here.

Well, off to get going with my day here - we opened a hive yesterday and now have honey to uncap and process for the winter! Yumm!

Have a healthy day,

April
