Day One-Where the Wild Things Are


Have I mentioned lately just how excited I am to be part of this cleanse with everyone?

Hate to admit I was a little draggy this morning, and well my stomach was so active I thought that was Where the Wild Things Are and it wasn’t until I went to Yoga tonight that it changed. Being empty allowed me to move into poses more freely, comfortably which created a renewed energy wasn’t sure I could have after not eating. Plus, not to mention the added bonus of socializing with fellow cleansers.  Enough said, I’m a big fan of Yoga, think it’s critical to everything, so I am holding back trying to get too preachy, but let me say, if you’re serious about the cleanse, don’t miss out on this vital element. This fast can be stressful!

Seane Corn teaches, “We detoxify so that we can show up more fully in the world and reach our highest potential”   We know that Yoga classes will provide abdominal compression, decompression, and twists, powerful breathing exercises and techniques to work in conjunction with the physical practices all to aid in the release of toxic emotional and mental patterns. Whew. But did you consider that yoga cleanses our system by helping us relax and meditate? Like chemical pollutants, stress is a toxin that can most definitely damage our physical, emotional and mental well being. Stress interrupts how we function from day-to-day and can even destroy any detox diet plan that we may have developed considering that compulsive eating can also be caused by too much stress.

And lets not forget about all the emotions whirring around looking to be harnessed. Like young Max you don’t really have to sail away to discover what Yoga is really all about, its Freedom. You may stumble upon a personal transformation with just a little shift in your practice to access the incredibly creative, powerful and fluid energy and maybe surrender to this energy, that is living your life.

See you in class,

Deby

L-O-V-E it’s a mystery, where you’ll find me, where you will find all is LOVE.
