Day 32 of Juice Feasting - Warm soup, heart warming movie

One month already... it's impressive.  Impressive because I never would have thought I could do this, honestly, and because what seemed impossible is now routine.  A metaphor for life.  How many times have I been paralyzed by fear, only to realize that was seemed daunting was accessible, once I got around to doing it, or more accurately, when I am ready to do it.  Readiness is the key.  I have been guilty of berating myself for not being ready to do something.  I am now learning to access new levels of compassion for myself and others.  We are ready ... when we are, and not when we think we should be.

Today I made myself some wonderful juices, thanks to a huge jicama I picked up at an asian supermarket over the weekend, which produced about 3/4 liter of sweet delectable juice.  I also had 1 l. of chard, 1 l. of tomato with basil, 1/4l. of zucchini (courgette), 1/2 l. of celery, 1 l. of cucumber.  I think I really need to stay off celery for several days in a row, as I'm still on overdose reaction every time I smell it.  I froze the leaves of the big bunch of basil I got this weekend, and am breaking off little pieces to juice with the tomato.  It's delicious.

I was really cold today, even though people are out in tee-shirts enjoying the sunshine... so I guess it's just me and a cleansing reaction.  I tried the hot/cold shower to warm me up, it didn't work.  I tried putting lots of cayenne in my juices, it didn't work.  I went for a walk in the sunshine, barefoot walking... still cold.  I went for errands on the main street and started craving a bowl of broth from the Thai restaurant.

Finally it dawned on me that I could warm up the juices!  Tadah!  The magical recipe of the day is:

tomato with basil, cucumber, zucchini, chard, and a dash of celery, with cayenne and spirulina warmed up to the touch.  I made a huge bowl and devoured it.  Yum.  I'm making some more tomorrow.

I had a dilemna concerning the new coconut oil I just bought... I can't eat it straight.  And I don't want to blend it and make my juices all greasy... what to do?  I remember the superfood chocolate from David's talk, so I made some chocolate droppings... they were supposed to look like balls, but, well, they look like... mmm, bird droppings.  I took the daily dose for five days of all sweet superfoods I had on hand: maca, raw cacao powder, bee pollen, cinnamon to make it sweet tasting, dash of cayenne and black pepper, melted 5 teaspoons of coconut oil at low heat (put the oil in a bowl, and let the bowl sit in a pan of hot water).  Add all the powders to the oil, stir, and do your best to make it look like 5 balls or any shape you want.  Put in the fridge, and then into a ziploc when cold.  I had one, it's delicious!

This morning I woke up from a dream and slipped right into an awakened dream state, wit transformation with Source about letting go of parasitical relationships.  Later on today, I did a phone session with a client about ... letting go of parasites in her body and relationships that drained her.  At one point we both realized that the session was just a continuation of what happened in the dream state this morning.... twilight zone.  I've actually had several people tell me I've worked on them in their dreams, but since I do not usually remember it, it doesn't really count, does it?  

Although over this weekend, someone told me that she felt me working on her so strongly (she had requested a session asap for this coming week) and was feeling so much better that she insisted on paying me for the work my spirit did on her.  That was very unexpected.  She was very grateful, and I am grateful I could help, even though I did not do it consciously.  Which really makes you realize that you are soooo much more than your puny mind.

After a few more phone energy healing sessions I was ready for  a change of pace. So I went to the Thai restaurant and asked for a bowl of the spicy veggie broth to go after checking it didn't have MSG.  I took it with me and drank it while watching Julie and Julia at the movies.  I felt very decadent and grown up.

Big mistake!  I still feel the broth in my tummy after 4 hours.  I'm taking an extra dose of the bentonite pills tonight.  How can you have an indigestion from a bowl of clear broth??  Well, you can.  The water was really hot, so its structure had changed, and my body reacted to it.  I guess there was something else in the broth that made me react as well.  I learnt from David that once water has been heated past 108 degrees or so, the body reacts to it as if it was cooked foods, even though it is just water, because the heat changes the molecular structure of water.  I now make a point of heating the spring water for tea just to the touch, but not more. 

The movie however was great.  Made me nostalgic for Paris, and the French foods I grew up with.  Boeuf Bourguignon was one of my mother's favorite dish to prepare.  It is a funny, endearing movie.  I really loved how it accurately portrayed two women fumbling to find their lives passions ... only to find it in what they already love.  Eating.  Didn't think they could do anything with it.  Isn't it what most of us do with our gifts?  They are so natural to us that we take them for granted, and dismiss them, while longing to make a contribution to the world.  The gift is right there, glaringly obvious, if we can only following what brings us joy.

I highly recommend it.

With much love to all, I bid you good night.
