respect and wisdom & compassion
coming to the end of my 5 day nourishing/detox cleanse. as a naturopathic physician, i believe in practicing what i preach. and to always experiment on myself first before i subject my clients to our medicine :)
so this week was all about nourishing and detoxifying. i did this together with my partner, my colleague, my soul sister, dr. lori kimata. we closed the clinic down for 5 days, trying not to see clients, at least on a full time basis. we reorganized, got rid of the old, recycled old stuff and cleansed the hell out of our clinic. all the while, we were on our nourishing detox. we ate lots of bitter leafies, did some protein smoothies, drank lots of water & artichoke tea, juiced lots of carrots, beets & ginger.
we surfed, practiced yoga, hiked, slept...listened to our bodies, our minds & our hearts. and tonight i get to celebrate!!! yay!!!
also, i surfed 3's this morning....beautiful waves, glassy, head high. lots of boys in the water. i worked the crowd, softened the boys up....and we had such a blast. of course, they were all open to it. anyway, i caught a few beautiful waves, going up and down the wall, up to the lip every so often...ear to ear smile, full of laughter, and gratitude.
today was a big day for me. i earned some respect of the old timers out in the line-up. that's huge!!! and especially for a girl!!!
my "water cards" of the day are respect and wisdom & compassion. i put these words underneath my water bottle and have focused intention on these words. the water absorbs the vibration of these words and voila... i am full of respect and wisdom & compassion for the day!!!
