Day 4 Cleanse

If the cleanse is good for anything it is definitely good for losing weight.  As you could tell from my weigh-in. 

I mainly have my bowels movements in the morning and then through the rest of the day I just drink lemonade and pee a lot. We have to track how much we poo because that is how we know our body is cleansing. 

I haven't been sleeping the greatest and I know it's because of the herbal laxative we have to take before bed. I am hoping that passes. 

Amanda - the lemon cleanse consists of a drink made of fresh lemon juice, maple syrup, cayenne pepper and good water. I take a herb laxative or sea salt broth in the morning and an herb laxative at night.  I drink about 6-7 glasses a day of it and it goes for ten days. 

For me I would like it to be a cleanse for my colon and such but I am more looking for an internal emotional/mental cleanse. I have been meditating and doing affirmations to help heal whatever is making me angry  This cleanse can be used for so many purposes it is really a personal endeavor. 

My little kikster who is so much like me has been kind of feeding off my angry energy.  We have been butting heads and hate to say it yelling to be heard with one another. I would love to put her on this with me. 

Anywho this is my report so far ;-)

Master Cleanse Reading Part 3

Chapter 6: The Master Cleanse

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.

Master Cleanse Reading Part 2

Chapter five is kind of a long one as it talks of how the cleanse works for all aspects of your body. Mental, physical and emotional. Passages that stood out to me:

"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.
