Raw Girl in Japan

Triple blog later today.

Am feeling FABULOUS.

Hi there, yes…yes…yes..I am a shocking blogger. I mean to blog, but then….blah, blah, blah.

Have lots to tell, all will be revealed in the next 24 hours. I am recommitting to being a regular blogger. I have met some wonderful people through keeping this blog and I have so much to share. More fabulous photos – so please do not leave.

Let’s not hold back here I have been totally crap – in two ways. Firstly, with the fruit thing. Just hasn’t worked out so far. Secondly, with the blog.

So I plan to start afresh tomorrow. JUNE 11th and I am seeing how long I can live as a fruitarian. Hopefully the entire summer. My schedule changed recently and it has taken a while for some things to fall into place.

The question is, why try for a fruitarian diet, when there is so much goodness in a full raw diet and I already feel pretty good.

1. Did you observe I wrote ‘pretty good’? I want to sparkle this summer season. I want to be vibrant inside and outside. Move over ‘pretty good’ I want to feel FABULOUS.
   
2. Things have shifted a lot of late in my personal life. I don’t want to go into it as it is rather personal, but I do see this lighter diet as a way of clearing out any remaining negative energy and replacing it with shining prana.
   
3. I will not be weighing myself. The reason being…….as a former anorexic the scales can still be the ‘friend I love to hate’. I still believe we live in a society that focuses heavily on weight, calories and we still steer clear of nutritional value.  Therefore I will focus mainly on my emotions/moods, muscle tone and will pay particular attention to how my yoga practice is affected. 
   
4. It’s bikini season – girls will totally understand this one.
   
5. The first couple of weeks I will be taking psyllium. In fact I have been for the last week or so. Hubby too and he can’t get over what is happening.
6. I will also be keeping to my daily MSM.
7. Once a week there will be the water fast.

So in my fridge I have durian, watermelon and cherries. Roll on Thursday 11th June.

Love to all.

Sorry to have neglected you dear blog. I reason is clear and simple. I had too many ideas, too many things I wanted to say and get done and really didn’t know how to get it all down. Now all seems a little clearer. Angels are guiding me. 

I’m back in Thailand at the new Yoga Thailand.   Now on the south side of Koh Samui. Although the surroundings are a little unfamiliar, just being back here I know I am home. And that is why all seems a little clearer. The madness of Tokyo is far away for the next two weeks. 

I’m here deepening my meditation practice. Working on my pranayama and of course there is my physical asana practice to deepen. On top of that is the glorious fruits that surround me.

Daily Munchings

One hour before class I have MSM and water. Following class as shot of wheatgrass and the spirulina and coconut (am in heaven).

A banana

Juice – orange and mint

Mango and banana

And a lot of water. Important to sip and not gulp, despite wanting to keep the body rehydrated. 

Am mindfully eating. Not wanting to waste food and to eat wit happiness and gratitude.

Hubby and I are off for colonics on Friday. Staring the New year nice and cleansed. Will be back here in march for training so will have another one then.

Am also doing a Reiki level 1 training on Sunday and if I get time before I leave (Jan 5th), may try and squeeze in Level 2. When back in March will do the next level.

2009

Have a lot coming up and I feel it will be a magnificent year.
