Watermelon. This time of year it is so abundant, so juicy, so sweet, that I have adopted a new ritual. Watermelon fast about once a week. Today has been the second time in two weeks, and it feels good. It feels right.
Yes, by the end of the day, when finishing the last of the huge watermelon I bought a little more than 24 hours ago, my enthusiasm for the taste, the look, even the smell is less than it was at the beginning of the day. But, I know I will sleep well, wake up feeling great and looking forward to enjoying my idealistic food choices. It seems to reset my appetite thermostat just a bit, for which I am grateful. I have also heard that watermelon meat makes a great digestive cleanser.
Today I was up with the sun, operating at high peak all day, and now settling in for the evening, just as the sun is moving behind the mountains. Could be..... because I have spent the last week (on "vacation") locating my new home, getting rid of stuff (6 garbage bags), giving away stuff ( 4 boxes, 3 garbage bags) and have posted the last of my furniture on Craig's list. I'm on a mission.
It is amazing how similar this "material purging, prior to moving", is to the last one which pulled me out of Phoenix and landed me in Prescott about 2 years ago. All I can say, is something huge must be coming, because I have sure cleared out lot of stuff; physical, spiritual and emotional. It is an exercise in self reflection, life review and manipulation of vibrational energy. It seems to be going much easier this go around, as...well as, dare I say...almost fun!
Toiletry Update;
I wash my hair with baking soda instead of shampoo. Absolutely love how it makes my hair look and feel.
I use hemp oil as a weekly facial moisturizer, sometimes coconut. So far, I like the responsiveness of my skin.
I use rock salt for deodorant, have been about 2 years now, after changing my idea of how a deodorant is suppose to work, it does well for me.
I use Vitamin E drops for eye area after ever face cleaning.
