There are two things that happen to me during the diet I would like to share. During the cleansing I started to question everything.All of a sudden, everything that was making perfect sense began to make no sense anymore. It was too extreme and I was mad to the point I had decided to slowly get out of the diet and quit it for good. So I went shopping and got lots of things I was not supposed to eat. To my surprise though, when was time to eat, I didn’t want to eat anything else than what was prescribed by the diet. Then I realized my mind was upset, but my body was feeling great, healthy, no needs. And decided to listen to my body for once and continue on the diet that was being so helpful. When I listen to my body, everything that was making me mad disappeared. The second experience took place a few days after the cleansing. I got lost and had to spend one hour to get back to my way. It was a bright day, I was happy and the fact that I got lost didn’t bother me at the beginning. But time passed and I notice lots of negative thoughts showing: “how did I got lost, how stupid I am, what am I doing here, loosing my time”… Suddenly I said to my self: “wait a minute, you are hungry” (I got lost during luch time). “Give yourself something to eat and you are going to come back to your senses.“ It was a great prove to me that we are what we eat.
