2013- Cleansing Time

Aloha and Happy New Year.

2013- Wow! It's goal setting time. I actually love this time of year for this reason. Right at the top of my list this year is to cleanse and simplify. I want to cleanse on several different levels; Mental, Physical (body and environment), and Spiritual.

  • Mental Cleansing: Will be a concerted effort to be positive and make no more room for negative thoughts or actions. Let love be the ruler of all thoughts and actions.
  • Physical Body: Will involve, exercise, clean eating (Vegan & GMO Free), juicing, green smoothies, and fasts.
  • Physical Environment: Will involve getting rid of clutter. My best friend since we were 8 years old has always told me that no house should have a junk drawer. I've always had several, even a junk room, but my goal is to go through everything and de-clutter and purge. I've been deep cleaning like a mad woman and the results always make me feel so great. Clearing out dust and spraying essential oils to purify the air. Ahhhh!
  • Spiritual Cleansing: The greatest of all. This will include prayer, reading, meditating, singing. I will start each day in reverent prayer and let it set the tone for the day, through the day. 
This is just the beginning of a new era. I am focused and willing and wanting to grow in love. I am blessed with what I need and want to always show thanks for this.

I want to share this simple Green Smoothie recipe that is tasty and so good for you.
