It's not so bad! Look up the recipe for Kitcheree (Kidgeree and variants). Filling and delicious.
Also, shop the vegetable markets. There's bugger all healthy in supermarkets. Why even bother?
I was having an out-of-body experience and almost astral-travelled away yesterday, so I grounded myself and got centred with the help of my spirit guides and then the phone rang. Sensing the negative vibrations, I threw the I-Ching and checked my numerology chart, nearly having a primal, but my energy was too blocked.
So I did some bioenergetics and self-parenting, took some flower essences and ate an organic oat bran ginseng muffin, but my inner child wasn't feeling nurtured yet. To fix this, I had a Rice Dream Frozen Pie, which, of course, made me hyper, so I did the relaxation response technique I had just learned at the Self Healing Angst Tree Defoliating Centre while listening to my subliminal tapes.
But that left me feeling depersonalised, so I did some polarity work, foot reflexology, and past life regression, then re birthed myself, and called Moon Beam, my body worker, to make an appointment for a Shiatsu / Reike /Rolfing /Feldenkreis / Swedish / Japanese deep tissue massage.
Unfortunately, she flaked out and never returned my call, so I decided to energize my crystals and do some positive imagery because all my visualization techniques and affirmations made my space feel invaded. So
to get empowered, I got a psychic reading from Mother Heart Love around the issue of my assertiveness so I could feel my radiance and have some energy for my psycho calisthenics and inversion swing before my harmonic brain wave synergy session.
This made me more focused for my actualization seminar, holistic healing class and dream workshop, which in turn made me clearer for my Gestalt behavioural cognitive transpersonal Rechian-Jungian-Freudian-Ericksonian
session at the hot springs, but my aura was too weak for my trance channelling group, so I fasted until noon to recharge my chakras. At that point, I sensed my intuition was high and my cycle was focused, so I turned on my ion generator to open up for my Neural Linguistic Programming session.
But I needed to have my pyramid recharged before my guided synchronicity meditation, so I got some craniosacral therapy, which aligned me for the fire walk between my tarot card reading and my sensory deprivation tank appointment. But even after all that, I felt what I truly needed was a meaningful relationship to mirror myself, so I went to my personal shaman, and then to my guru, but they were no help, so instead I went to the Intensive Whole Life Earth Rebirth Cosmic Expo Symposium Workshop to find someone who really knew what was going on.
That didn't help either, so I locked myself in a calcium coated Orgone Box and meditated until 9PM.
None of it really worked for me, so I rolled me a big fat spliff, got baked and downed a six pack -- and dude . . . did I feel right with the world!

I whipped up my own version of kitcheree today using lentils, rice, onions, garlic, ginger, carrots, peas, and cabbage. Flavoured it up with cumin seeds, coriander powder, pepper, turmeric, chili powder and garam masala.
Tasty it was and the first time I've actually felt full since I started this mission!

Well I survived it, seven days living on rabbit food.
A week with only Kitcheree, rice, fruit, dried All Bran, and a loaf of wholewheat bread from The Baguette. Liquids were fruit juice, water and infusion tea.
Observations
It got easier after the first two days, the Kitcheree helped a lot as I could curry it up - I'm the Dave Lister of curries and this stuff was filling too!
The last two days were the toughest as I started feeling physically tired a fair bit and slept more than usual. The fitness training was harder than it normally is (probably because my adenosine triphosphate wasn't working or something equally technical).
I lost a couple of kilos.
Our bedroom started to smell like Shrek's house.
I never want to see another white radish.
Thoughts
While no doubt this has done my innards the world of good I don't actually feel that much better than I normally would from a just week's abstinence from the amber nectar. I would imagine this is more suited to those that want to lose weight quickly - which I don't.
On the upside it has been an educational journey into realms of hippyville and probably the first time in my life I've had to think about what I'm eating. I will do it again as the body needs a good clean out every now and then, just as a car or computer does. Next time I'll know what to expect so it will be easier!
The Future
I'm going to murder an egg and bacon sandwich tomorrow!

Well its that time of year again, dry month and detox week!
I'm three days in and it so far it is easier than last year as I know what to expect now. One immediate observation is it has sapped my energy levels quicker - maybe I'm getting old now or maybe I should stop trying to pedal up hills while doing this!?

After my detox (1 week) I went to see my doctor as agreed for a blood test and examination. He said all was well except I was low on protein intake for a person of my age

It’s none of my business what people say and think of me. I am what I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. It makes life so much easier.
I detox every day from approximately 10 p.m. until noon the next day. Does that count?
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?
