Mike (my husband)
I am happy.I can try to describe this feeling - after my week off, I realized that I had reached a new place in my self-awareness journey. That place is happy. I am peeling away some inner layers of stuff and see so much more that I might be scared. Except I am not. I am happy.
Maybe this comes from the sense of self that is surely upon me. Maybe it comes from all of this positive thinking and action. Maybe it is a combination. None of that is important. And maybe that's just the point.
I love my life, my husband, my family. I have a lovely home, and the people I work with are good people. I see their foibles and eccentricities as I do my own, and it is all quite perfect.
I no longer 'react' to my family's dramas. I am centered and calm and happy.
My bowel reflects this newfound sense, and of late only reacts to foods it does not like, rather than reacting to EVERYTHING, as in the past.
This state of being, and health, has been a long time coming.
Yes I have physical setbacks here and there. Short lived. Workable. Not important or dramatic. Purely lessons to be learned.
Have I stopped my routine? No. Will I? Yes, when the time is right. I am not there yet. However, this state of mind, this sense of self, of harmony with the universe, is bound to influence my physical presence. I will know when it happens.
We are almost on spring here in the desert. The air is changing, temps rising. Today will reach 80 degrees F! Time to put together a weeklong herbal cleanse - detox liver, pancreas, etc. I will do some searches for a mild detox, try it, and let you know the method and results. In the past I simply took milk thistle over a period of several weeks, and that is one plan that I may incorporate. I have wanted to try a serious fast/cleanse for years but felt too insecure to do so. I am ready to try it now. Stay tuned!
Sante!
