Juicy January Juice Feast days 6-12

The feast continues & it has been good! I am able to do all that I normally do, maybe even with a little more focus.
I have been painting, going to yoga (in fact, I am doing a 30 day yoga challenge), working on “Kids Gone Raw,” walking the pups, babysitting my niece & nephew on Wednesdays, preparing raw food for others & loving life. I have faced daily challenges between the hours of 5 & 7pm ... I get tired, cranky, light headed & sometimes have a headache. I just breathe through it with a cup of juice in hand & find something else to do. I have been doing the enemas at least every other day.
I didn’t record everything I drank each day, but each day I have had 3-4 quarts of fresh juice, 1-2 quarts of a hot lemon juice tonic, 16 oz. of miso broth, a mug of herbal tea & 1-2 quarts of water & 1-2 cups of fresh young coconut water ... my juices include veggie juices, fruit juices & mixes of both. I find I need a couple of fruit juices a day for a quick pick me. ![]()
Day 6: I hit power yoga this morning, followed by hot shower, a large glass of fresh coconut water & a yummy fruit juice of cantaloupe, kiwi, orange & grapefruit & now to work. Too much computer work is getting to my head, but other than that I feel GOOD!
Day 7: I woke up feeling good, but mad at my pup for pooping on the floor again. I've been giving both dogs the juice pulp, which they LOVE, but it makes them poop their little hearts out! I hit a 1 1/2 hour hot yoga class which was killer ... towards the end of the standing poses I got really light headed ... but I rallied through & feel good & tired now. I hit the Farmers' Market for inspiration & came home to enjoy a pizza juice with tomatoes, basil, celery, garlic, spinach, a wedge of lemon, a pinch of sea salt & pepper.
Day 8: I felt nauseous all day. I think it may have been triggered by my enema. Not sure though. UGH! I still accomplished a lot, but just didn’t feel good. More detoxing, maybe?!
Day 9: Today was a good day! Felt great all around!
Day 10: I had a melt down tonight. Felt stretched & pulled in too many directions & then collapsed. EMOTIONAL!
Day 11: Tried to be mindful about my fast ... and asked myself if I was ready to stop or was my mind just telling me that. I think it was just mind chatter, so I will carry on. ![]()
Day 12: I felt good & hungry for juice today ... I had lots of different juices & warm drinks as the snow fell. I spent time in the studio, actually got outside & shovelled which was ok, although I got lightheaded at the end, so I came in for juice & to get warm.
2 more days to go! ![]()
