So me finally sitting down to create this website / blog happens to coincide with the conclusion of my three-day juice cleanse, courtesy of BluePrintCleanse. Coincidence? I think not. While my initial motivation for ordering the cleanse (the fifth or so time I’ve done it) was to detox and “reboot” my system so I can start over healthy after a period of (much enjoyed) over-indulgence, this time I cleansed with a focus on not only my body, but also my mind. The stress and anxiety of my day-to-day existence had become overwhelming for me. It was clear I needed downtime to myself to truly do nothing – no housework, no work-work, no errands … just to sit and be and relax. The ability to do something so “luxurious” is rare, but was clearly needed.
