Life, Exercise and ….

February 27th, 2008 by Tanisha

Life has been busy but then again it feels as if I’ve been at a standstill. I have been going through the fire that is for sure but I am still here and still raw.

I plan to make an appt for a colonic next month. It is not something I want to do often but at least once or twice and then I’ll continue to use foods for cleansing. There seems to be mixed reviews on whether colonics are good for us. I feel as though a lot of the things we do aren’t good for us but anything in excess especially a colonic I believe can deterimental to our health.

Recently I have been trying to get into the grove of exercising, it seems I would go a couple months exercising and couple months I’ll take off, I don’t understand why but it is a pattern I want to stop. So my goal is to exercise before I do anything else either before I leave for work or right after I get home. Yesterday and today were great, I did 10 min dance video and 3 mile walk today, I feel great. One thing I can say about being raw is that I can exercise all night and never feel tired and I barely break a sweat. Before raw I would have sweated out my guts and more but now it takes quite a bit to work up a sweat. I have to tell you that even though I can exercise forever my mind plays a vital role in how long I do it, several times throughout the workout I was like man I should just sit down then I’d remind myself that I am not tired and that I need this but I am saying this because no matter how raw you are if your thought process is negative you will receive negative results, meaning not finishing your workout.

You know my raw journey hasn’t been a perfect one in terms of eating, I have had some slips some ups and downs but I am still here I keep striving to be better. My goal at this point in my life is not to be perfect but to create a life long habit of eating raw. This is not a drive by the night diet or a weightloss diet for me it is a lifestyle. I see so many people going on diets only to go back to eating whatever they want and gaining the weight back. I know this all to well I was one of those people but this time it is different, I am learning how to be raw and stay raw for life for the health of my mind, body and soul.

Well enough for now, I hope all of you are doing well. Keep the faith and never ever give up on your dreams and goals.
