Day 7 – Loving Life

August 5, 2008

Is impossible for me to blog at daily. There is so much going on, so much to write but my schedule really doesn’t allow the time. Maybe I should just blog what I have consumed on a daily basis and write more when I can? Maybe that is what I will do.
So, yes day 7. [...]

What better way to start…Day 1 (Weds)

July 31, 2008

Back on track. Started with a 24 hour water cleanse. Considering the hectic day I was full of energy at 10pm last night.
During the first week I’m starting each day with Vaman Dhauti a yoga cleansing technique for the stomach. Not the most pleasant of things, but over time you get used to it and [...]

It didn’t quite start

July 29, 2008

What with all the peaches, melons, kiwis in season at the moment I had difficulty getting on this smoothie/juice path.
Another thing, I felt I didn’t have enough ideas, creativity (I’m a dancer/choreographer/yoga teacher??) – something wasn’t fitting. I needed to do more reading and I had to figure out how I was going to work [...]

Smoothie Delay

July 24, 2008

I head to the UK in two months, so decided to count down to my vacation with a two month smoothie and juice feast. Just seemed perfect. Return home all vibrant, full of energy.
As I mentioned before I intend to drink about two quarts of green smoothie or juice and a fruit juice or smoothie. [...]

Greening it up…

July 12, 2008

So, following on from my last entry, me mentioning my recent visits to the hospital and the findings I have decided on how I am going to deal with this.
Initially I was going to embark on a 30 day green juice feast. I was excited about this and read articles on the internet along with [...]

Tis the season…..

July 4, 2008

….to eat watermelon..tra lalalala lalalala – or put it in the vitamix with ice and whizz it up. Perfect as the heat and humidity in the Metropolis rises. When it gets like this I simply do not want to eat, preferring a nice juice or smoothie.
Having said that a dear friend of mine returned from [...]

In the vitamix as I write

Falls into place

June 24, 2008

In early February I attended an abundance working at Sun and Moon yoga where I teach. Leza (studio owner) has been hosting this all day event for a couple of years now and hubby and I went along together. There were around twenty of us in the group, fully supporting everyone’s dreams and focusing our [...]

So many things..

June 21, 2008

…to say. So much has happened. So much continues to happen.
I’ve had a rough run of things, was ill, had to have tests…blah, blah, blah. Will fill you in over time.
All I can say is that LIFE IS WONDERFUL. I am blessed to be surrounded by people who care and share their love
I now intend [...]

Back for Good

January 10, 2008

 
Yes I know, long time no write. Have been shocking with this blog for which I can only apologize and believe me when I say I am ‘back for good’.
 
Happy Belated New Year to you all. Hope 2008 has proved to be a joyful year so far. Full of wonderful fruit and veggies, keeping the [...]
