Today

“Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.”- Margaret Lee Rumbeck
Sleep & Rest: Maybe 7-8 hours of sleep. I'm not sure cause I had a hard time falling asleep.
Yoga Practice: Does a "Zen mind" count? This guy at the produce shop (literally) snatched a bag of baby bananas out of my hand (that were discounted because they were ripe, which means they are like GOLD!). At first I was shocked that he took my bananas, but then I laughed about it. He is either a bit crazy, ..or a monkey. Who else would get that excited about bananas?! Besides me. :) (hee..hee..) I'm "bananas" for bananas too I guess. Wouldn't snatch for 'em though! Maybe if it were a bag of Candy Stripe figs. Then I might have to get wild. The animal side would come out. -Rarrrrr! (They are that good!)
Sun & Air: Went for a run/walk/climb/carry outdoors.
Sweat & Fun: Went for a 2 hour combo; "chop-chop" walking, a lil' jogging, stair climbing/running (2 sets x 15), carried a heavy fruit load home for 45min-1hr (-ugh!).
Fruity Meals: Banana-strawberry-apple smoothie / Bag of mixed figs (including Candy Stripe!) / Frisee salad with mixed fruit-veggies mashed in / (Not sure what's next!)
Creative Work: A little of everything. But definitely got webwork in.
Brave Move: Buying a last minute ticket to Los Angeles. Ugh. Totally don't have the time/money to go. But my friend needs my support. She havin' a baby! I gotta be there to see it come into the world. I just gotta.
Give * Share: Bought a tix to LA to be there for a friend. Gave a listening ear & some feedback. Offered to share my veggie-fruits (avocado, tomatoes, cukes, etc.). Gave forgiveness to the rude banana guy (or gorilla!).
Incorporeal Bliss: Color is always a big one for me. Feeds my eyes & soul. Saw lots of fuchsia & violet today. Also, washed my hair with cold water. Bliss! So refreshing.

Today and Yesterday I ate;


Wednesday~
1 liter of water
LOTS of watermelon
Veggie gazpacho w/ beans (<--it had tomato & green bell pepper in it & that is not allowed on the Clean program. MUCH less than in the pic above though, it had very few nightshade veggies, but it did have some.)
Carrot-ginger soup (<--ate this for no reason, I wasn't hungry)
Adzuki bean puree (<--ate this for no reason, I wasn't hungry)

Thursday~
1 liter of water
LOTS of watermelon
Wild dandelions with lentils, avocado & blended veggies

Day 7 & 8...
Yesterday was a flop! Ugh. Worst day in a long time. I totally noticed how I needed to over-eat to cope with the day. I couldn't just 'be' with how things were going, I needed to be distracted from my feelings. What I chose to eat wasn't bad, but how much & when I ate it was completely linked to bad feelings & choices. Today I got to choose again & had an amazing day! Life is really all about choices.  ..and that includes choosing how we feel. :)
