Hello!
Â
2 questions:
Â
1) For the end of day soup - after we steam the veggies, is there any harm done if we puree it in a vitamix/blender and eat it that way?
Â
2) I just tried to catch up on the 1st day call and I don't think this was mentioned, is it okay to add sprouts to the mid-day salad and soup?
Â
Thank you!
@tonyaelizabethb - I LOVE blended soups... so easy and delish. From what I understand, I don't think Natalia wants us blending the green lemonade. I'm thinking the blended soups are ok.
@tonyaelizabethb I think it’s totally fine to blend greens but it will never replace your green juice. You have to have your juice separately. I wanna try some blended soup too. Does anyone have good recipes?Â
Is lotus root ok this week? I bought ten avocados a few days ago and they aren't getting any softer at all...I'm so frustrated..
Something came up that sucked my remaining money I had this month. It wasn't much to begin with but I'm super stressed.... Absolutely no bee pollen..maybe just carrots and cabbage for the rest of the month...
I recently started to have a good sign for my future but this money issue really really is triggering me and now I'm in the hell again....because this earlier fall I had very very difficult time with money and it made me think I'm worthless...I'm reminded of this feeling again.
Tonight I'm starting my temporary job at post office for the next two weeks which is also triggering. I don't wanna work for such a low wage and this kind of job but this was only thing I could find.Â
It's only two weeks but it does something to my self-worth. I feel embarrased and I hate to follow my mom's order. She suggested me to work at post office almost to prove that I won't make a living doing what I do...
Â
I'm hungry, so maybe that's why I feel so down and frustrated and emotional.
I'm crying right now... don't know why it triggers me so much.Â
I guess I'm also releasing these old feelings as I release waste?
@megumisaruhashi I'm so sorry to hear you are going through such a challenging time...please know we are all supporting you energetically and that you are doing something to boost your self worth by taking care of your body and spirit. One moment at a time ❤️ This too shall pass.... Â
@megumisaruhashi Try to keep your head up! Its always good to release your emotions... feels good.Â
Dont worry about having to get anything fancy like bee pollen. Just get what you can afford and what you enjoy. For example... grab a big bag of broccoli (usually $5) and you can make sooo many meals from that with salads or steaming with pureed tomatoes. Cabbage is excellent as a wrap or in soups. Dont feel like you have to go all out. What I love about this path is the simplicity. As humans we waste so much, so this brings us back to how nature intended us to be. Less is more here. 🙂
Do a little release meditation to help get through the stress. Hoping you'll find a job soon. Its such a challenging time right now, I truly feel for you. Hands on your back.
Â
@kandis thank you. Yes I will do some meditation to release emotions. I’m loving this simplicity and yet it’s so simple that it reminds of my low days... I know this simplicity will bring me more fullness. But it reminds me of lack somehow at least right now.Â
I think I have to release the old emotions. I’m releasing my old story with this cleanse..
@megumisaruhashi Jess Shepard, of Rising Higher Meditation are beautiful and effective if used consistently.
@megumisaruhashi Aw, Megumi. You are so precious and valuable. Please do not question your self worth -- but this is an important theme we must explore as a group. I'll give you a call now to check in. So much love, Natalia
@megumisaruhashi Sending you love Megumi! You are so worthy! And we are all here to support you during this challenging time. Hard seasons happen to us all. Just remember that every season passes <3 <3 <3 It's so wonderful that you are here and a part of this course right now!
You are beautiful and worthy of the best Megumi! I pray that you've been able to release the old feelings and you are feeling better now. You are a treasure in God's eyes and He loves you deeply. Struggle is always opportunity to get stronger and more courageous within! We are here for you 🙂Â
My heart goes out to you! I’ve been through extremely difficult times like you and please give yourself credit for walking through and doing the hard work you’re doing! Â
the heaviness of being in a job you don’t like and on top of it you’re doing this cleanse That takes incredible strength!!  Hold your head up high 😃 you ARE making it happen. I’ll say a prayer for you if you don’t mind. For all manner of good things to come you and soon!
blessings, love and light to you!!
Blessings, love and light 😃
@cheryl-cestmoi Thank you so much! We will all come out of this cleanse and be brighter and shinier ❤️
Is upper stomach pain normal after the bee pollen?
I didn't believe it when Natalia said that pure romaine juice tasted like chocolate milk, BUT I just tried it today and it is INCREDIBLE! Everyone has to try this! It DOES indeed taste like chocolate milk. It feels creamy and grounding and I can't wait to buy more romaine to make this my new staple. Thank you Natalia!
@auroralace lol!! Ok... I'll have to try this tomorrow then. I know Natalia has said this for years.... but I just could never bring myself to try it. Wonder if it will be a good coffee texture replacement?
@tonyaelizabethb I juiced it alone. I ended up making some for my friend who lives next door because I wanted her to see how crazy it was that it tasted like chocolate milk and so I did end up adding a carrot for her, since she's not on the cleanse. I took a tiny taste to see how different it was, and it's just sweeter. Definitely give it a try!
1. How do you feel about pure monkfruit extract, Natalia? Just to mix it up with the stevia from time to time?
2. The chocolate keeps me up at night as I'm not a caffeine drinker. Can I have it midafternoon instead?
3. If I've been vegan prior to this, will adding the dairy have a negative impact healthwise?
Thank you so much,
Megan
Also to follow up on the dairy thing...I am not used to eating this much fat at all (was higher carb lower fat vegan prior) and had a colonic today and the practitioner was concerned that there was a lot of fat coming out and coating the tube. Is this something to be concerned about or should I be taking enzymes to help break down the higher fat content involved this week?
Sorry for all the questions and thank you so much 🙂
Megan
This didn't really get answered in the video...
I am having the chocolate and the cheese during this cleanse because I feel like I need them since I am not allowed fruit (morning smoothie properly combined on an empty stomach) and sweet potatoes (with a salad) which is what I would normally eat in their place. So I still have the same questions I had above which were mentioned but not really answered. Is it possible for this to be addressed? Should I be worried about the high animal fat content and the fat coating the colonic tube? And is it okay to have the chocolate earlier in the day, since it keeps me up at night?
Thank you,
Megan
Thanks for addressing in the video I did get to that part 🙂 I am eating a whole avocado and 4oz goat cheese daily.
As for the chocolate can I eat it earlier if it is keeping me up at night? I do feel like I want it as I cannot have my fruit.
Thanks!
Megan
