that's the first term that comes to mind when i think about how i've felt ever since i ended the Master Cleanse. i went 8 days, plus the usual 2-day ramp-back-up, but my body is being really weird with its cravings. the strangest of all is how much i want salt, and i mean *want*. and i have a strange compulsion to constantly be eating *something*. i don't think this is typical, but everyone's a little different so i'm not sure.

i'm not much up for sugar, and dairy just doesn't interest... read more

not much to say, actually. it's weird, because overall this doesn't seem to be very intense, except for the not-eating-willpower thingy. which is definitely tricky for me. oh, yeah. that, and the stomach tension. the daily saunas at Sacred Space have been doing wonders for the tension aspect of the cleanse. there's lots of lovely popping and gurging once i'm able to to totally release that abdominal musculature -- something it seems i'm not particularly used to releasing :) gotta say t... read more

started the Cleanse a day earlier than originally planned. Susan just finished her 10 days' worth last week, and two folks i ran into at Kezar during the Eagles game on Sunday were just starting theirs. serendipidous. so i figured i might as well start Monday. accepted job #2, quit job #1 (which turns #2 into #1), survived another day of work, did my Kundalini with Molita, and dropped in on Hallie's improv gathering. full day, packed to the brim. and somehow i managed not to succumb to ... read more
