40 Day Challenge Day 1


It's easy to slip into the practice of other people and deviate from your own. I know that happens with me. It's easier and more social to live that way. It takes more focus to think for yourself and follow your own heart. That is my experience.
Have you noticed that when we squash down the parts of ourselves we don't think we want, that they find a way of manifesting themselves at the mist inopportune times? Until we learn to accept ourselves the way we are, we will continue to sabotage ourselves and then run to our distractions and comforts to numb and deny ourselves.
I want to live the rest of my days with the most health, happiness, and authenticity available for me, whatever that may be. The best way to do that is by elimination. Getting better is a process of subtraction, not addition.
I have created for myself a 40 day challenge to eliminate the things that hinder. I am calling this challenge The 40 Day Clohesy River Health Farm Challenge. The goal is to take the principles taught and practiced by Dr. John Fielder at his farm on the Clohesy River in Australia and reclaim them as my own.
Today is Day 1 of 40 for me. Feel free to join in if you desire.
Day 1: Here is my food for the day.
Jnatik Mayan Coffee Alternative with a spoonful of coconut sugar.
Smoothie (coconut water, chia seeds, banana, spring mix greens, kiwi, papaya, pineapple, coconut, frozen blueberries, frozen mixed fruit)
Fruit available to choose from: cutie orange, naval orange, grapefruit, avocado, mangoes, apples, and grapes.
Salad to choose from: spring mix, cucumber, tomato, celery, avocado.
Sauerkraut
Pecans. Dates. Raw bars.
Kombucha.
The food will basically be this everyday. The fruits may change, and there may be some refining.
To health and happiness.

Happy in the Garden

Yesterday I worked in the garden instead of walking around the neighborhood.  It is a different feeling. It's true that I only got in about 6500 steps by the end of the day instead of over 10,000, but it was a different feeling.  Travis planted some tomatoes and peppers, I cleaned the lower deck and pulled some weeds.  Lucy dug in the dirt and felt so happy.  I felt the same way. Working in the garden makes you feel happy and productive. I was puzzled by a plant growing in the herb garden as a weed.  I started pulling them out but decided to check if they are edible.  Edible weeds, such as dandelion,  can be used in our smoothies.  I put a picture on Facebook to ask for help identifying the weed, and the consensus is that it is plantain.  Some say edible and some say not, but I am inclined to think that it is edible.  My brother, Max, lives up in the mountains, and his neighbor says it is edible and the smallest leaves are best with...

The Lou Corona Story

Yesterday, we went to Magic Springs with our daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren.  The landscaping there is beautiful this year.  This one little flower didn't let a little concrete stop it.     Lunch today was three bananas which I ate about 1:30.  I'm letting my body rest a little bit after eating too much food the last couple of days.  I did domestic chores today.  But Travis made a trip to the City Compost Facility for another load of compost.  We'll use it on the trees we still have left to plant. We have a volunteer tomato plant coming up in one of the garden beds.  It's doing pretty well, too.  I have it on my to do list to buy some more tomato cages. The arugula I planted is up. The kale Travis planted is up. The new plum tree is planted. Here is a volunteer Poke Salat that came with the blueberry plant.  Travis planted some more blueberries in the blueberry row that lines our driveway. The...

Alko Shredder

 It was chilly this morning, but I got out and worked a bit in the garden bed that had the strawberries moved out yesterday.  I fed it with the mineral supplement and fertilizer.  I started putting on compost, but ran out of time before I finished.  We are going to plant some kale in this bed. Bed #3 weeded, minerals added, fertilized, and partly composted. Travis and I went to an estate sale today.  First thing we saw was a garden shredder.  We bought it for $60.00 and brought it home.  There are lots of leaves in my yard that could be shredded. Our new used Alko shredder...made in Germany.    For dinner tonight I made a soup.  The inspiration came from Dara Dubinet on her You-tube video, but mine was different because I used what we had. My vegetable soup recipe:  Juice a beet, 6 carrots, 3 broccoli stalks, and a sweet potato.  Then heat a pot of water on the stove, but do not boil.  In the Vita-Mix, put 3 med...
