Indian meal!!

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

I talked with Elchanan on Skype last night (so grateful for your help

Elchanan - without it I would have given up before now and that would have

been such a loss to me) - and I really needed to talk and get my head

straightened out - I was so screwed up over going for the Indian meal - I

was giving myself such a hard time you'd have thought I had committed a

murder and i needed to get it straight in my mind that ok I went and ate a

cooked Indian meal , didn't do myself ANY favours by doing it and felt quite

ill as a result but in the scheme of things it is a little blip only as I

really love my raw way of life, and also it is early days for us and we are

learning how to do all this.

 

I always need to get the identification from someone who has walked a path

before me - in other situations in my life I have needed this and being raw

is something that I need help with too.

 

I needed to ask questions so I could know that someone else had experienced

the things I was going through - to know that the salty taste I have in my

mouth all the time is ok and that my body is cleansing itself of all the

years of salt intake. Even something like that can be unpleasant and a bit

hard to take - and now I know that this too will pass.

 

To not take myself and life so seriously but to look after myself is

important to me.

 

We also received good one to one guidance on our fast and we are going to do

it - aiming for a 36 hour fast starting today at about 6pm and God willing

going through to Monday morning.

 

We are eating sweet water filled fruits and no high fat content today to

give our bodies the best chance of naturally cleansing a little - I do not

feel the need to use anything to help with this fast except preparation and

good planning - I feel for the first time ever that my body knows exactly

how to do it and I have to let go and let it get on with it - hope it makes

some more of the salt come out and then it may not go on for too long.

 

So today I feel at peace and that it is all ok - this is the right way for

me to live and eat - I have such wonderful sleep with raw food - sleep had

become a waking nightmare with all the trips to the loo in the middle of the

night - now I maybe get up once and that is all so I feel so much more

rested.

 

I would advise anyone who is struggling with anything to talk - it is so

much better than just e-mailing - that real contact with another human being

is what we all need. We are back to being 100% raw yesterday and today and I

feel good again, not just in my body but in my thinking - if my head isn't

right then I am not right - big style!

Love to all

Lynne
