(Today) I began the master cleanse. I started with water and 2 salt flushes in the morning. In the afternoon I drank the spicy lemonade and watched my mind. I didn't start to have any cravings for food until the early evening. Then I very much wanted apple pie for several minutes at a time. That was interesting because I almost never crave apple pie. I soothed my mind and reassured [myself] that everything was going to be ok. I sat calmly and sipped on water while watching a documentary and charmed. Later I began to feel the familiar panicked cravings for food. My mind was sorting through food choices like a catalog trying to find something to tempt my body into giving in. Cravings for food came like flashes of memories and passed just as quickly. As my mind became calmer I noticed a flipping between cravings and deep contentment. I wonder if it was sensing of the mind and the body alternatively. I wonder what it would be like to sense them simultaneously.
The syrup is such a joy.
Overall I felt happy and accomplished. I urge surfed gracefully and noticed the gentle shifting into something new that has emerged. Mindfulness FTW.
