Well the cleanse is starting in just a few days. Feeling apprehensive about it. But I have lots of support and a few more people will be joining me in the cleanse and hopefully blogging their experience here as well. I have identified at least 5 things I do that keep me from experiencing fantastic health:
1) Excessive sugar -(carbs, bread, cookies, scones et.)
2) Boredom
3) Don't drink enough water
4) Disorganization
5) Lack of movement
Also the three top emotions that get in my way are:
1) Anger
2) Fear
3) Procrastination
My relationships are good the people in my life support me and love me. The hard question to answer is: How would your life be different without these behavioral habits and mental constructs?
I would be able to achieve my goals more easily, less mental stress, and more emotional balance. I would be able to get more done and have the ability to let things go and move forward. For now I feel stuck and I seem to always be starting at the same place all the time. I need to move on and accomplish some of my other goals and dreams. I'm bored staying stuck in the same place. I would one day like to be able to help other people but until I can help myself I can't help anyone else.

Wow. Yesterday marked the 16th anniversary since Craig and I quit smoking.
The official date to do the cleanse from the book The Blood Sugar Solution by Mark Hyman is October 2nd the day after my 55th birthday. In the meantime I'm preparing my body in small ways for the cleanse. Having lemon water first thing in the morning, drinking more water also becoming more conscious of my food choices. I have ordered the DVD workout, The Body Revolution and have started preparing emotionally by doing the journal exercises in the book. For my spiritual health I have started reading and doing the work book exercises in A Course In Miracles. A wonderful beginning.
Today's reading was a wonderful reminder about how important it is to live in the moment, the quote from the book A Course In Miracles is "the only aspect of time that is eternal in now." And "what you perceive in others you are strengthening in yourself." How true is that!
I will be sharing all of my journal work, my ups and downs in this blog. Starting very simply just so I will get started. I tend to over think and want everything perfect before I start but then I never seem to get going on anything. So this is ruff and not professional but I hope someone will get some benefit from my experience. And I'm hoping that just the act of doing something will get my creative juices flowing.
