Cleansing Body and Mind

Believe it or not, I am in the 5th day of a cleansing fast. This is my second attempt but I know that I am going to follow through this time. I am amazed at how good I feel and how my mental clarity has increased. Although... part of the mental clarity could stem from the lack of alcohol. I plan on doing the fast for the suggested 10 days. I am hoping this will be a great jump start to eating a healthy diet. My high blood pressure and swollen, water logged ankles have made me realize that I have to take control of my body and start treating it correctly. This fast is supposed to cleanse all the toxins from your body and make your digestive system work properly. Hopefully, I will want to keep my internal body clean like when you clean the house and hate to dirty it up again. I thought it was going to be harder to do this alone (my husband attempted it with me last time) but it is actually easier. I don't have to listen to him whine about how he's starving to death lol. It's all downhill starting tomorrow!
