Journey To Health: ALIVE- 31 days of detox...
March has a lot in store for me and Journey to Health:ALIVE- 31 days of juicing, raw veggies, raw fruits, loads of water, non synthetic supplements, and minimally cooked non processed foods (ie baked organic potato, steel oats with hot water).
Many people argue about a diet being strict or too hard to follow, there are legitimate concerns for setting yourself up to fail and be disappointed. Please rest assured this is a 31 day challenge to detox and educate. While I will not be cooking meals for me, I will be researching vegan, vegetarian and clean food recipes. We have begun making real changes to eat "alive" and be healthier, but we still have so far to go!
March is a time to refocus, detox, recommit to myself and my body-that I am worth it and I will see this to the end, no matter where the Journey To Health takes me. Thanks for coming along for the ride!

The extra day....
Did you make a new years resolution? Maybe a list of goals for 2012, possibly a bucket list? The statistics say you probably have already broken it, if not given up on it completely...
You have a full extra day this year. Yes, it would be more fun if it happened to be a Saturday or Sunday, if you didn't have work or school, but it is a full, new, bonus day none the less.
I say dance in it, hug it, sing loudly and off key with it, cry in it...just BE in it. Be present, be mindful that everyday is a gift, and February 29th is an extra one this year.
Take this extra day to catch your breath, motivate yourself, be kind to yourself, clean off the computer desk and reread that list of goals you wrote last December. Do not scold yourself for giving up on resolution, but reward yourself for not giving up on the year, there is still so much more to come. Be present, Be mindful, Be filled with purpose.
Enjoy your extra day by forgiving yourself and moving forward with mindful purpose and those that support you.

Back from the break...(introduction)
I have been abnormally quiet and you have noticed. I appreciate the emails, facebook messages, phone calls and general "checking up" on me.
There have been a lot of heavy things happening here, and while in the midst of it, I have not been able to talk about it. Sometimes because I felt I had to keep my cards close and not over expose our family in case "they" were reading the blog for inside information, sometimes because I have been forbidden to talk about it to maintain procedural integrity, and some because I was so consumed with dealing with it, I just couldn't write it out. Often, writing it out makes it more real, and can cause a sudden vulnerability level that is extremely exposing in the moment, other times it is therapeutic.
I will be summarizing the events under this title "Back from the break," for those wanting to follow along.
In other news, JourneyToHealth:ALIVE, is back up and fully running. March 1st is a big kick off for a new phase of this journey. I am excited to share what I have learned, and as I continue to learn I will continue to share. I will be posting "before" pictures, goals, and my plan to get there. As always you can join along and match dollar for pound under the "Journey To Health Sponsors" section. We are also on twitter and facebook as well. Join the journey!

Journey to Health: ALIVE! (Before picture!)
We are still working on changing a few things on the blog, but for now you can find the important changes under the top tab "Journey To Health: Sponsors"
Thank you!!
We hope to have everything up and running over the next few days!
My "Before" picture:
Most people may wait for their "after" and not post their "before"....
I am posting my "before" now, because I am claiming my "after" now.
2011 was a year of discovery, trying new things, learning, sharing, and deep emotional growth. 2012 is the year of pushing past the hard stuff, and really digging deeper. 2012 is the year of no excuses. Health, MUST come first. This will take shape in many forms: friendships, eating, activity, daily schedule, spirituality, and so much more. However, all woven together leads me one unified direction-to health!
Thank you for joining me and sponsoring me on this journey!
