Well, this latest leg of the cleansing journey surely has taken me into unexpected territory, but of course, it's totally the ticket (ooooh-inadvertent pun--ticket, journey--yeah, I know, you probably got it immediately)! So the magic that seems to be happening (and I'll get into the details of the regimen here in a bit), is that I am unleashing years of pent-up gratitude toward my body for her oh-so-integral role in this experience that is life on Earth as Me. I'll say she plays a pretty huge role. She's the vehicle, and, what a vehicle! Do you remember Night Rider, that tv show from the '80's? The car was a smart and beautiful vehicle (smart for pretend, of course). Compare a hunk of metal that has some cognizant capabilities and whatever to the marvel that is the human body and Kit (the car with the sexy voice) looks like a set of dental braces or something. I am appreciating my body (especially repenting of hating on certain aspects which I made the scapegoat over the years), and that, I think, is at the heart of why I wanted to do a cleanse to begin with. She needs some love and appreciation from me. She has been on "my" team ("my" who? I hope my shrink isn't following this blog--I'm going to get a new diagnosis!) She has done very well--marvelously, even! She is my partner on this journey (or rather "I" am along for the ride) and she henceforth gets her dues. Yay Hannah's body!!!
