Day 10

Well the journey has come to completion. I remember thinking at day three, "man, I've got seven more days of this." And now that it's over, I'm kinda sad.

Anyway, day 10 was mostly clearing out everything left over from the liver cleanse. Had some good release and got to listen to Marianne Williamson's CD on relationships. It reinforced how much my relationship with myself is the most important relationship of all. I had a new appreciation for my wife and my children after I was done. After clearing the cobwebs in my mind, I realize that the value they've added to my life is priceless.

After I was done, Mary gave me a little goodie bag with fantastic stuff inside of it. There was a whole pamphlet about eating better. Not so much what I'm eating but more how to eat. I learned how to combine foods so that I can get the best digestive processes working at any given time. There was a food chart of alkaline to acidic foods and even a pair of chopsticks to help me to eat slower.

But overall, the experience was absolutely amazing. I wake up earlier and with more energy, the whole ambiance of my body feels lighter, my thoughts have quieted, I'm thinking more clearly and most of all, I've really learned what it takes to really love myself.

Mary and Angie were awesome and taught me so much...more than what a clean colon can do for a person. My wife and kids have been super supportive throughout this whole journey and Jon has been a great friend to share this experience with. The X Factor in all of this was Keith. I never expected to meet him or to know him that well but he has added so much to my life in such a short period of time.

If I had to describe this journey in a few words, I'd have to say...IT WAS LIFE CHANGING!

Sometimes people expect life change to be a bundle of money or incredibly huge success or the dream job. And that's what I actually expected out of this. I expected something earth shattering and super noticeable...but not quite. My life has changed in a much different way...in a way that's not noticeable at all but is worth far more than any dream job or any amount of money.

How has it changed?

I've learned to be still. I've learned to hear the very quiet voice inside that never leads me astray. I have awakened something inside of me that I know can lead to any job I want, any amount of money I care to have and any amount of success that I choose. The greatest change that's happened over these ten days...I LOVE ME!

And all this from cleaning out a little crap!

  1. I'm really interested in knowing more about your situation. Did you have pain in your upper-right quadrant? Do you have high-triglycerides? High blood sugar? High cholesterol? Have you lost weight through exercise or diet? You know how hard it is for people like us to lose weight.

    1. Hey Mike

      I had all of the above except high blood sugar. This experience helped me in so many ways but it's only part of the journey. It's been a year and I no longer have the upper right quadrant pain, triglycerides are normal and cholesterol is normal
      What's really amazing is how much this experience reconditioned my mindset so that I could make the necessary physical changes to improve my life tremendously.
