Juice Feasting, Day FIVE!!!

Wow. I really feel I'm cycling well on this juice feast. Day Five, I wake up with a headache and lay on my pillow to consciously allow the muscles in my face to fully relax as I drift back to sleep. I am very grateful to have Emily here now to encourage and assist me in my morning routine. On these busy, early-morning, 8am school days, she wakes me with juices ready! So beautiful!  

Supplementation: MSM and 1QT lemon water, little raw honey, b12, ElectriFire. 

For today's Juices:

1) Apple, Lemon, Celery, Romaine, Spinach, Burdock
2) Green Pow, Spinach, Purple Kohlrabi, Apple, Lemon, Celery, Cabbage 
3) 1/2 QT #2, Carrot, Apple, Parsley, Bee Pollen
4) 1/3 QT #3, Apple, Pineapple
5) 1/2 of left-over #3, Apple, Pineapple, Ginger

I begin the juicing at 9am with my first QT, and after the first I do not follow any precise drinking regime. At each short break, I take more juice. After some B12 and 8oz Rejuvelac, around ten in the eve, EmRose and I head to the Jewish Mother for a live show with Israel Vibration. While walking to the show, I feel a buzz of life through my sense of smell, swirling me into an alternate dimension. It's like back in the day when I used to eat mushrooms, pre-trip, without the nausea. At the show, we both initially feel overwhelmed by all the people and heat. Breathing through our anxieties and discomfort, we begin to open to all the new energies. Israel Vibration begins at midnight and the whole place starts vibin'; I begin moving more, sinking into the rhythm of the music. All is fluid; I am dancing and sweat is flowing! The experience is fully entrancing, and my senses are very enhanced. I notice the cycles of my awareness shifting from the beautiful band members on stage to the people dancing around me, and to my own body, thoughts and feelings. The intensity varies through the night, and I leave feeling very rejuvenated! Upon arriving home, Em and I do a hot foot soak and scrub to prepare us for sleep.
