By this day I was crying and very emotional and lars was done seeing me miserable.
I am so grateful to be able to listen to my body and give myself the permission to stop. Doing this cleanse I lost ten pounds or more I haven't weighed yet.
I am glad to know what to expect and I am excited to go again when the time is right.
Thanks for all the support.
This chapter takes you fully through the cleanse. Tom Woloshyn explains the benefits of the cleanse, what you will need, why those items were chosen, the steps to proceed each day, side affects and much more. The 51 pages of this chapter is the complete instruction of how to do the cleanse.
Passages that stood out to me:
"Do not let others discourage you." pg 61
". . . .as if you could learn how to swim by coughing others from the sidelines rather than plunging into the water yourself with a good instructor nearby." pg 62
"Do not let others sabotage your efforts." pg 62
When I first learned of the Master Cleanse, which was a year or two ago, I was excited about it. I went out bought the book. Only read what I needed not the entire book. And was going to see how this Master Cleanse would benefit my life. In preparing for this I kept my husband in the loop and although I love him with all of my being he was a nay sayer. Having to fight for it and convince someone else is exhausting and I ended my Master Cleanse Journey.
So these comments really hit me because truly who you bring on this healing cleansing journey will make or break you.
In explaining the ingredient Tom Woloshyn says, "get the best; you deserve it." pg 63 What I see, "Don't half-ass it." You can either follow the guideline to a better you or only go part way. YOU DESERVE THE BEST!
"Get out of your own way. Allow yourself to heal, and then accept it as a gift!" pg 90
Lastly, "WAEFFTI - When All Else Fails, Follow The Instructions.". He puts them there as plain as can be.
"stress is a condition that starts in the conscious mind and almost always manifests as a feeling in the body." pg 42
"In the physical body, the unconscious state, if left unchecked for too long, will create the experience of a dis-ease or discomfort, functioning much like an alarm to alert the mind and wake it up to take correction action." pg 42-43
I have come to believe these statement fully as I have experienced my bad feelings turning into something more. It is always good to check in with yourself.
"Therefore, it is vital that you take care where you put your mind, and what you choose to expose it to." pg45
"It becomes clear that the thoughts we think affect us and the thoughts we share with others can have a long and lasting impact." pg 47
Tom Woloshyn recommends a book called You Can Heal Your Life by Louise L Hay and says this of her book, "what is so great about this tool is that we can change ourselves at the very core of our being if we choose to, because we have Free Will." pg 50
"Another by product of the cleanse is feeling more relaxed and calm." pg 53
Since having kids I have kind of felt like a time bomb ready to blow always ticking inside. Or maybe that's just at this moment lol
"With a healthy body, your mind will find peace and will start to open on a higher spiritual level, and other aspects of your life will continue to change and evolve as well." pg 58
Overall in reading this chapter it confirms to me that I am taking the right steps to better my mind, body and spirit as it list the affects and outcomes of doing a cleanse.
I got the books by Louise Hay and look forward to clearing the negativity on my inner soul and learning how to more at peace with myself. Just typing that it sounds cheesy but I really feel it and I need to break free of it.
I have decided to devote myself to the Complete Master Cleanse by Tom Woloshyn. Mostly because I feel Munich needs to be cleansed and I am getting some dry spots that I want to be gone. They are spreading on my body and I don't know exactly if my body is allergic to something or if there is something going on inside.
Right now I am reading the book cover to cover and I will probably read it a second time to fully prepare and embrace the guidance in it. There is so much factual information that it will take two times through to read.
I have read through chapter 1 to a fourth of chapter 5. So far the words that have stood out to me are:
"I strongly support you in achieving your goals." pg 8
I really like having the feeling of support and these words are so strengthening that I will post them in my bathroom.
"I want to be healthier. I want to be happier, and I want to be more fulfilled." pg 9
This is a mantra that Tom Woloshyn would say to himself when before his life changed and progressed for the better. Instead of the word 'want' I would put 'am'. If you keep saying 'want' that's all you will ever do is want.
"Nothing venture, nothing gained." pg 9
Self explanatory. So I plan on venturing to the fullest!!!
"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Albert Einstein pg 26
The majority of the first chapters are talking about his introduction to the Master Cleanse, what doctors do to contribute to the problem instead of dissolve it and now talking about the different types of food and how your body reacts to it. He doesn't speak all bad about doctors because there are some instances where they are needed.
A lot of the information is stuff I have heard through different sources but it doesn't hurt to learn it again and understand the severity of it.
Sidenote: I started reading this book last Thursday so I have gotten a bit farther in the book and have been journaling my thoughts and feelings about it.
I will be starting the cleanse officially on Saturday and will be doing a smoothie diet to prepare my body starting today. I am excited and I am ready to make my physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental body healthier and happier.
