This is Day 1 of my Master Cleanse fast. I’m following the one by Stanley Burroughs. My mom has done it before and told me it helps, so I’m willing to try it. I had a Remicade treatment yesterday and I’m hoping by starting the Master Cleanse today and starting my dermatologist recommended visits to the tanning bed next week, perhaps by the end of summer I’ll be looking good. I’m forcing myself to blog about it because it’s the only thing I can think of that will help me stay focused. The book says the first two days are the hardest, if I can get past the two day hump I’ll be okay for the remaining 8 - 10.
So here’s to Day 1!
I just want to take the time to state my gratitude toward the improvement of my health. I can feel myself pulling out of this senioritis induced depression and sliding comfortably into my last hurrah. I’m feeling relaxed and healthy and energized rather than resentful and tired when I wake up in the mornings. And now that I’m finally getting my relief, it’s even sweeter after all the days I had to put on my big girl pants and grit through the bad moods brought on by feeling like my time was being wasted. I feel like I’ve earned it, and that’s one of my favorite feelings.
I just felt it was necessary for me to make a record of this and post it publicly to make it real; to let the universe know I’m paying attention and I am thankful to finally see my (albeit feeble) positive thoughts manifesting and becoming stronger by the day.
My life is changing. True and deeply felt happiness is coming back to me.
I am liberated.
