Current Mood: Contemplative
This is an edited excerpt from an email I sent to one of my best friends regarding this Master Cleanse — I liked what I wrote, so I thought I would post some of it here…
“You may have a life-changing experience. You might learn some things about yourself. You might even become more aware of who you really are. Self-discovery is a path to freedom. People have been fasting in various ways throughout time. People still do it today in many cultures around the globe. It’s really not a bad thing for your body to go without food. Plus, it’s not like you’re “not eating”. You are still consuming life-sustaining minerals and calories and fluid. It’s really okay. 10 days isn’t that long compared to a lifetime.
I feel euphoric (philosophical, too, LOL) Honestly. 4 days in and I don’t feel like I’m damaging myself in anyway. My body feels the best it’s felt since I first started using my CPAP machine. I feel clear and alert and completely aware. I have energy — I even feel like I want to exercise. That’s a new one for me. I normally dread exercise — and today my body seems to crave it.
I know that you know what’s best for you. This is what was best for me 4 days ago. I felt like I needed to do something drastic — something big — something that I hoped would alter my perspective on my life, my body and whatever it is inside my personality that is holding me back from being the best I can be. I’m a young person who is cool and vivacious and has so much to offer — and I’m heavy. And it frustrates me that I can’t get a grip on my weight. This Master Cleanser was the best choice for me at this time in my life — I am searching for the answers — and this fast is helping me get closer to the knowledge.
So far, it has been life-changing for me — in just 4 days. I know that sounds smug and self-righteous. I don’t mean to be all high-and-mighty about it. I just think there are many things to learn about ourselves — and sometimes it takes drastic measures to find those truths. In 4 days, I’ve learned that it definitely takes drastic measures for know for me. I don’t like everything that I’m learning about myself…but it’s the truth and the truth will set you free.
That is my goal…to be free of whatever IT is.
I’m getting closer.”
