Back in August, I was pulled, by my Spirit, to start a total 21 Day Juice Fast. I knew and felt I needed a total body reset. So I began the Fast on September 1, 2017. I made it a point not to tell anyone, as I didnt want or need any distractions. I didnt want, during my Fast, try to explain why I was doing it, as I wasnt sure how I would react to my cleansing. I didnt know if I would be crying, angry, happy, or all of the above at the same time.
So, 19 days into my 21 and further day juice fast, I have ended it. My plan was to go to 21 days, see how I felt, then maybe add a couple of fays here and there, but my body had other plans. It let me know is subtle and not so subtle ways it eas finished doing its work. Although it may have ended 2 days before my initial goal, I dont feel like a failure, in fact, I feel wonderful. My brain fog has cleared, my eyes are clear, as are my goals I have set before myself, and have released a lot of baggage. This was a solo journey that I needed to take, without distractions, aggravation.
I documented my journey via videos. I didnt do too many, as during my cleanse, there were times I was just simply fatigued, emotional and just plain angry...in other words, just didnt feel like it, wasnt in the mood. I also realized that all of that was part of my cleansing, releasing the physical and emotional baggage I was carrying.
Ive done long fasts in the past, so this wasnt new to me, but it had been years since my last long fast and now, I had to relearn my fasting formula. Some things my body was doing was familiar, but I was blindsided by others. I remained calm, prayed, meditated. Heck, I even started a new gig, teaching cycling classes, what a rush!! I had a lot of energy, that was fun!! I also walked through my home and threw out bags of stuff I was holding on to...so it wasnt just my body and mind needing a cleansing.
