Wow... almost there, one more day ! I survived water fast and the hydrotherapy treatment and a few hours of low energy . Now here I am day 20. It started with a 108 surya namaskar practice held by Yoga Aid as a fundraiser. There was a good 50 people that turned out for the event and came together to create heat and energy. I taught 2 rounds and gave dedications to transformation, to the children and to the source.
I learned the following :
1 stands for Higher Truth, 0 stands for Emptiness and 8 stands for Infinity. Together it represents the whole of existence.
I also learned that Indian women are to wear 16 ornaments during and after marriage. Gold above the waist and silver below. This contains energy in the body .
I am back to smoothies and blended soups. I haven't had too much of my perfect greens yet (its gross) but will be adding into my regular diet. I also have added a probiotic pill a day to cultivate good bacteria in my digestive system.
" You are not what you eat , you are what you absorb " . This is the basis of my motivation for this cleanse. Yes the added benefits of high energy, glowing skin , lightness are all great. But really its to activate the digestive system and all the supporting organs that work so hard to break down everything we put into our systems. It is important to honor, respect, and re energize these hard working insides so we can feel great inside and out !
