- Beets
-Celery
-Spinach
-1/2 avocado
- 1 cup water
- parsley
- Red Bell Pepper
- curry powder
-salt / pepper / red pepper
Blend to desired consistency and wah lah . Its red in color due to the beets and therefore makes it more appealing. It was actually good!
I have been sleeping like a baby and enjoying even the time prior to sleep which used to be very restless for me . I honestly feel great , very alert and awake upon getting up . I feel positive. Haven't noticed any weightloss but still feel great .
This morning I had scheduled a massage to further release any toxins that have come up over the week. I got to the place and unfortunately there was a miscommunication and my massage was cancelled , bummer . But it was okay because later they called me and said I could get a complimentary massage when I do decide to reschedule.
It made me realize that there is no good or bad experiences ... just experiences. Because where there is bad ( disappointment, anger, sadness, etc) there is good to cancel it or BALANCE it . So take it for what it is and try not to react in any extreme way. Easy to say , challenging to do , thats where practice is important.

In my mid to late teens i use to visit and purchase certain items from a particular health food store in my area. During that time in my life which was about fifteen years ago i first learned about wheatgrass. I had a juicer at home, but it was a high-speed juicer and not the appropriate one for extracting the juice from wheatgrass.
Conveniently, the health food store had a slow-turning juicer (wheatgrass juicer) and i was able to sample out what it was like. Once wheatgrass is juiced there is a limited time that you have to drink it before it loses it's potency.
It is said that the things that taste very nasty are the best things for you and, i do have to say that wheatgrass juice was one of the nastiest things that i have ever tasted! Wheatgrass juice though is the most nutritious and cleansing juice that there is. Wheatgrass itself is seven inch tall grass that is grown from wheatberries on one inch of soil.
Wheatgrass juice benefits many parts of the body including the liver, kidneys, glands, spleen, muscles, bones, teeth, blood cells and hair. Wheatgrass juice protects the lungs and blood from air, toxins, cigarette smoke, heavy metals and water pollution. The juice of wheatgrass can also be applied to the skin or scalp. It can be used to wash out the eyes, teeth, gums and sinuses. And, it can be implanted rectally to cleanse and heal the body's large intestine. Wheatgrass also works as a weight loss remedy by suppressing the appetite and by stimulating the metabolism and circulation. Not only do humans benefit from the abilities of wheatgrass but animals as well! It has aided the reproduction and maintenance in herbivorous mammals.
What i also learned back then is that wheatgrass contains a full spectrum of trace elements, minerals and vitamins. Those in particular include amino acids (protein) , special enzymes, magnesium, potassium, calcium, iron, chlorophyll, vitamins E, C, A and B complex. And, just a few of the many conditions that are responsive to wheatgrass are ulcers, infection, anemia, hay fever, constipation, diabetes, colitis, bronchitis, asthma, skin disorders, acne, fatigue, hypoglycemia, heart disease, circulatory weakness, blood pressure (high or low) and aging.
Looks like it has some great benefits !
This week is going by quick, I'm sticking to my morning yoga and mediation practice and enjoying the calm.
Peace
