Lemon Aid Cleanse Article Five (from Kristen's blog)

How much pooh is in you?

I cannot believe I have just typed that on a public blog. I am forever tarnishing my journalism career as the pooh girl... I just know it! Laugh if you will but remember BETTER OUT than in. And honestly... it's not all about the pooh (as my five year calls it).

I think the only time I have ever "tinkled" this much was my ninth month of pregnancy.

It is not so much that it is bothersome though. It actually makes me feel as if I am really taking care of my body. I feel very hydrated and have realized that I probably don't drink as much as I should on a normal daily basis.

That's one of the reasons I think cleansing and fasting are so important. It's like you've set aside a certain amount of time to be conscious of yourself, be good to yourself and improve yourself while LOVING YOURSELF.

So much reveals itself when you don't let yourself get lost in the rat race of daily life. When my storefront was up and running, I stayed so busy juicing and preparing raw food for an entire town that on many days I would rarely have a minute to take a sip of goodness for myself.

Am I missing food? No, not at all today nor yesterday really. I am not experiencing any aches or pains either. Surprisingly I have less body aches NOW than normal. I did feel a bit intoxicated and dizzy yesterday morning for a very short while. It gave my mom and I something to giggle over. It quickly passed.

I am present in my body. That may sound strange but I do have a tendency to get busy and go into automatic mode. I am enjoying being with myself!
