Thank goodness we waited for our honeymoon!! I think having the time pass, has helped facilitate a time to enjoy, moved to deeper intimacy and healing on our honeymoon. After 6 months (tomorrow) since we have been married, we have had the pleasure and pain of getting to know each other. Yes, I did say pain, however the pleasure…..way out ways anything else. From successful couples I look to as role models, they all say the first year of getting to know each other and living together is always a challenge. I think moving in with anyone at first, takes some adjusting. According to the “eXperience the game” ,they define the word challenge as an opportunity for growth. YIPPEE for GROWTH!!! I don’t always feel that way at the time, but do my best to remember everything is for a reason and a blessing that may not be revealed at this moment.

In 6 months, we have packed up an entire home and moved Ari from LA. I will forever be grateful he did this to be with me. To move to Brevard County Florida of all places. It’s a beautiful community and I have lots of wonderful warm welcoming friends, however it’s not LA…his home of over 15 years. He became an instant step-father of two teenagers. Another major change, as I have lived independently for years and Ari has lived with roommate and alone for most of his life with no children. He is a natural father though….bringing so much love, wisdom and patience to our home. We have been having wonderful family meetings with the children’s father (Jari) and girlfriend (Cindy) as new things arise during our time of change. I wish all parents could have the relationship with their x’s the way I do!!! I feel blessed to have a husband that believes and lives for community, as I do. Alex and Makayla (our children) now have a stronger family unit than ever before.

So today I am focused on gratitude for God’s timing….6 months later to our dream vacation. Sometime things don’t happen the way we expect or want, however in God’s timing, it’s all perfect! Neither of us have been to Hawaii before and the energy here is powerful!!!!

I am looking back over this journey and wishing I had kept a daily diary or blog about my fast.  Then I realized it’s never to late to start anything.  Louise Hay started Hay House Publishing at the age of 60….always an inspiring story for me!! 

So…28 days ago when my husband and I watched “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” I was reminded of the power of juicing and cleansing.  Immediately, I woke up with the motivation to clean out my system.  We have started juicing, enemas and focusing on healing our bodies and minds through food (or the lack thereof)!!  Amazing – when I asked “what do I need to let go of in my life that is not supporting me or that is not for my highest good?” – the Universe starts working!!! 

We find our parents are nervous about the assumed lack of food in such a regimen, but really when juicing all the food we do, we are getting way more nutrients than we would normally by eating.  Some weeks we have consumed 5-7 bunches of kale, collard greens and spinach, 5-6 bunches of celery, 10 lbs of apples and carrots and more!!  

I have seen so many mysterious things happening on this fast.  My relationships are changing, my body and soul are changing. I am seeing things through a new pair of glasses.  The first day I opened the refrigerator 8 times…LOL!!   I am continuing to see my food addiction in a new light, when I feel the need to eat but am not really hungry.  I have this desire to eat when I am nervous or emotional.  Seems like a way to stuff my feelings!!

When I first started to utilize coffee enemas, which clean the liver, I had a lot of anger and was feeling very short with people around me.  I know that according to Chinese medicine, the liver holds anger….so that was no surprise.  I love how I feel after the enema….I have lots of energy and feel really light as a person!!!  When preparing the coffee enemas, I follow the guidelines of the Gerson Therapy.  They have successfully cured cancer for over 70 years in Mexico and they give the entire protocol away in their book!!
