Friday

So, I have been eating raw mostly for the entire week. I have also been having 2-3 green smoothies per day. Whenever I have a craving for something cooked I just make myself a green smoothie. So, I am eating raw foods in the attempts to create a better life for myself. One with more clarity of thought, a deeper sense of connection with myself and the world around me, a life of vibrancy, energy and health. I want to heal my body, my emotions and my spirit. Of course I am also doing other modes of healing such as yoga, in fact I just bought a yoga DVD yesterday called Yoga for stress relief, it had great reviews on Amazon and so I will let you all know what I think of it when I try it. I feel like yoga is incredibly healing and my goal is to do it 3-4 times per week on a consistant basis. The flexibility it creates allows blood to flow to more parts of your body bringing more nutrition and oxygen to all of your cells. As it opens me up physically I am also hoping for it to open me up spiritually and emotionally and connect me to myself and heal me on every level. I also get massages 1-2 times per month. I have a wonderful massage therapist who also is a raw foodie and has been for years now. Massage therapy improves blood circulation and massages your organs and just makes me feel so good and relaxed. I also try and get some cardio 6-7 days out of the week. This may include running 3 miles or climbing up stone mtn, which is right next to my house, playing tennis, taking a dance class, or walkling. Exercise helps to flush out toxins and keeps your muscles toned and gives a little bit of an endorphin rush. I also try to feed the creative parts of myself and currently am taking a watercolor class and an improv acting class. I feel that these types of classes connect me with myself and deepen my own self awareness. I also see a counselor 2 times per month to help me to heal emotionally. I spend time w/ friends and try and find things that I will enjoy so that I won't worry about why my life is not exactly the way that I think it should be. Okay, so anyways, this is a journey thanks for listenning.
