Juice Feasting, Day 40: wahoo! What up b-atches! :)

This is day 40, and what a phenomenal day! Whenever i tell people i am on day 40, we feel the significance. Jesus fasted for 40 days, and here i am going beyond the 40 (with juices instead of water no doubt). I feel a turn-around in my psyche and emotive state of being. This morn during Cranial class, I partner for our in-class practicum with a Reiki Master woman, and she truly elevates me to my subconscious inner/outer dimensions. What a trip. And she tells me that in my past life, 17th century, i am a Zen master with feet lifted from the ground while walking; supposedly i still carry these traits from Zen living in this life. i live in Zen time, she relates to me. i need to employ the discipline and create a spiritual life; this will bring me balance in this life. the monastic discipline is grand, and the fact that i carry cellular memory of it is amazing. So it shall be easy enough for me to incorporate discipline, maybe rising to do a morning spiritual discipline of asana and meditation at sunrise. "Rise and fall with the sun," she tells me. Just like i did after graduating university in yosemite valley hugged between 3500 ft granite cliffs, under stars and lady moon, bare with just sleeping bag and yoga mat on a large flat boulder. ah, memories. such an education way beyond institutionalized learning! moon cycles in line with actual moon cycles :). i get a rush when she tells me of this past life, as i studied Zen buddhism at university and read many books on buddhist principle aside from school. the monastic life has called, and i, naturally reluctant yet no longer. now i am inspired. so Zen it is. i like it. hara and hado are two words she mentions that resonate deeply with me. so following class i head to the library and check out 4 books. i am ready. ready. ready. here i am.
