Today I am starting a detox diet until Halloween. Limited alcohol, wine on the weekends. I am going to drink two cups of Yerba Mate a day, and eat fresh raw foods. Also, 1 hour of cardio every other day. Holla! Work Hard. Play Hard.
Last night was very rough. I felt like I was caught in an undertow of confusing thoughts and heightened emotions, like the time I was 5 drowning under water, swallowing gulps of ocean water while being scraped by the sand and shells. Slow motion. I cried salty ocean tears. I can be like this sometime. Today, I decided to treat myself to some therapeutic seaweed salad and sashimi. Also, I will join the gym today. One Year membership, a birthday gift to myself. This is the most money I have ever spent on myself, but I deserve it. I will have a perfectly balanced sound mind and body. The guy who is signing me up's last name is Kelp. Whoa. Yoga tonight, the instructor is named Di. She is great.
Here is a very informative article from Fuelthemind.com:
What's so good about Seaweed Anway? "Some beneficial nutrients in seaweed include organic (photo-synthetic) vitamins, trace minerals, lipids, plant sterols, amino acids, omega-3 and omega-6, anti-oxidants, growth hormones, polyphenols, and flavenoids. Seaweed also contains Fucoidan, Laminarin, and Alginate compounds. Studies suggest that these are anti-biotic and anti-viral. Land plants do not contain these photochemicals."
Antibiotic and anti-viral! Seaweed is the new cure-all.
"What if I told you that one simple nutrient can improve your cholesterol, boost circulation, enhance memory and mental sharpness, and even help you sleep better?"
