Day 51 !!

I don't know how but i seem to be at my 51 day 100% raw already. It has gone super fast and i haven't even had time to blog about it.
So 51 days later and i feel like my journey has only just started.

The postive benefits i have noticed so far :
No more afternoon energy slumps.
Clearer eyes
Softer skin, even tone.
Lost excess fat.
More aware of toxins and being "green"

I have felt moements of Love and joy for no reason, i had a whole week if feeling deep love, i haven't had that since but it was nice to have a glimps of what is to come and stay.

I have experienced alot of emotional detoxing and things to change or overcome. I feel stronger in my self, i know i am capable of anything i want to do. I stand up for what i believe in and i can get through any difficult times.

In the last week i have given up the "poo" shampoo. This is a great experiment and i can't wait to see the results. At the moment my hair is scraped into a bun, trust me it's not pretty down ! :D Grease, grease, grease. I've heard after the first 2 weeks it will start to balance itself again.

Issue :

My weight, i have a fast metabolism, and i like to run. So i am weighing in at 106lbs. This is less than i'd like, but i've heard toxins leave the body with the fat most commenly, so once my body has got rid off the bad stuff my body will start to rebuild from the good food and be stronger, healthier, purer :)

I have also decided not only is my food important but more so my mind and how i think, positive thinking, doing things i enjoy and that give me pleasure, using my creativity and meditating are things i am introducing to my everyday. Especially what i a grateful for :

I am grateful for :
My awesome family
My girlfriend who supports me and i love very much
Sunshine
Smoothies
Coconut water ! Love Love Love it
LOVE
cuddles
Kisses
Running
Sunflowers
My able body
My sparkly eyes
Chloe poochie dog
My friends
Walking
The sea

Emotional Detox

I've been experimenting with the Raw food diet for a couple of years now, with the longest of 100% raw being 10 days ! I felt amazing, energized, very HAPPY :D but.. i stopped, not sure why.. maybe because it didn't fit in at the time with my socilaizing... i'm back again and back on high raw with falling off the wagon quite recurrently. I'm taking it slowyl this time and trying to not be too strict with myself as i know this can have a negative effect on the whole experience, but i do have a tendancy to be all or nothing.
For the last month i have been eating mostly raw, lots of greens, rice, avocado, fruit and raw nut bars, i am still quite lazy on making my own juices and as i do have a good juicer at home i should really start doing this !
I have added a few supplements too, Maca Root, which i have taken for a 2 weeks at a time but makes me quite emotional i need breaks as it sorts out my hormones. E3Live which i have only taken for a week with Nature's First Food, this combination as brought up massive emotional detox which i am struggling , it's been hard as emotions that i though were well and truly gone at i feel like a mess at the moment, i keep remindning myself that these emotions are purdging and i'll feel SO great afterwards. I have alot of Anger, Irratation, Numbness in emotions, not much Joy and a low feeling, and as i thought i left my depressive side about a year ago it is hard for me to deal with. I'm thinking i may go for a Theta healing.. i have had before and they are very good at clearing negative though patterns, i think that these ones which have come up from old layers need to be shifted.
All in all, i feel detox is amazing, it helps us let go of emotions we didn't even know we are still harbouring inside, hidden away in our subconsious... i can't wait to be the Calm, happy, loving soul i am meant to be :)
