sounds scary, doesn't it? For some reason this phrase: the master cleanse... has been floating around my world for the past 3 or 4 weeks. First Lindsay's boyfriend was looking into, the Christiana started it, the Lindsay was telling me about her mom who does the cleanse 4 times a year, and finally Nikki embarks on her cleaning path tomorrow.
Why all the sudden urge to clean? It's not even spring yet.
I get it though. I was reading last night about Ayurvedic body types and their cravings and they deal with food. The author had one sentence that rings true - we harbor undigested emotion. Unresolved emotions (ama) can build up, slowing down your digestion and metabolism. Hmm... this would lend itself to the thinking that we need to detox out the emotions and buildup every now and again, right?
It just sounds so extreme and scary, not to mention a little icky.
One thing that intrigues me about the cleanse is - that it might reset one's cravings or tastes slightly. If you go for a certain amount of time with out a diet coke or a glass of wine... then you realize that you don't actually need it, correct?
Hmmm.... food (or lemon water and cayanne) for thought.
Glass 2 of Master Cleanse in my hand right now...
ReplyDeleteI love this blog post. I am definitely stuck in a way of thought right now. Hmmmm....or it could just be the dizziness kicking in.
