296: Oct 5 , improving after a long slowness

I had an old filling drilled out and that seemed to coinside with the start of the super blues and slowdown. Even exercise like bike riding was very difficult to to, the muscles seemed to be complaining even with daily use.
OUCH!!!!
Because it came not to long after returning from the Brazil 40 day sailboat delivery and the seemingly less than ideal diet on that trip which resulted in me being tired, it all got a bit muddled as to cause and effect. Additionally I was eating soy nutrition bars (Cliff) in the morning against the recommendation of advisor (AW).  After a few weeks being careful about sticking to the recommended diet and doing my daily stretching routine I seem to be on the mend.

139: Back from 34 day sailing trip

Life has gone back to technicolor from a couple years of shades of gray.

Brasil to Trinidad and I did the provisioning and cooking. Mostly fresh fruit and fresh steamed vegetables along with cooked rice and beans. The other two crew members were very surprised to be enthusiastic about the diet but they were very happy with the meals. I did not maintain the diet and supplement regime exactly as suggested by Anthony but tried to keep the spirit of it as much as possible. I was surprised how well I felt when allowing some items (meat: 'hard saugage' & cheese) into the daily diet that I have been avoiding for a while. They seemed necessary in order to live with out much refrigeration for an extended period of time.  It is a topic I plan to revisit and consider more in future offshore sailing voyages.

103: catching up a bit

It's March 22nd and life has been feeling much better and I give a lot of credit to medical intuitive Anthony. While life has not been a total perky smile fest, I have fallen short in a few areas such as aerobic exercise and diet has been only about 75% of what I think it should be. Over all not to shabby.
I depart to day for Rio and a 3,000+ mile sailboat delivery where I won't be able to maintain every little dietary thing I can at home. However, I expect that in balance it will be a wonderful thing.

088: (mon) These days bad is much better !

I have not felt good for a while but the big thing I notice is that I am somehow gentler inside and with myself so 'bad' is better than it used to be. How wonderfully odd that sounds.
Seems I am falling short when it comes to diet and exercise, so i am doing it to myself.
The good news is that I am careful about what I eat, but I do no eat enough of it and still tend to go for a few easy things instead of for good variety. Aerobic exercise not a regular thing for me but at least stretching is. I am getting non-arobic workouts doing small construction around the house and that helps me feel better because of the physical movement and the sense of accomplishment. I started a few days ago trying to be better about eating more vegetables during the day. Also I seem to be be better able go to a place of body awareness when I feel 'OFF' and accept and analyze and maybe treat it, rather than judge it and get moody. That feel like a big accomplishment. We are trying 'Laughing Meditation' in or own small way and I think it is a very good thing.

061: (Tue) Day of rest .....

I don't feel bad but am out of energy .... it is different than before in that i feel gentler towards myself and others and in other ways I am still sorting out ....

060: (Mon) Back in the old slump, but ....?

Whats  different after 60 days? I feel gentler, both with myself and with others, ..... and that's a big win. There are a few dietary suggestions given at the start of the new energy era 60 days ago that I have not followed 100%. (soy mostly). My exercise program has been somewhere between lackluster and non-existant. So I have lots to think about in terms of me taking personal responsibility and ownership of my own body and body issues and I have work to do. It leaves a few questions: (1) are there any underlying physical issues affecting me assuming that christian science and similar views are not correct and the body is where it starts and where it needs to be addressed first, and also (2) should I ask for help?

049: (thur) buzzing but w/ conditions

The buzz of energy continues but I needed to do better with diet and exercise.
Seems I have to take care of myself in order to make best use of all this energy. It's not a habit for me so it will be a work in progress.

048: (Wed) flat out buzzing .....

Really energetic today. I had tried to stay away from items that medical intuitive had warned against and also to do some colon cleansing things like drink more fluids. It or something seems to be helping.

047: (Tue) Not as perky on the outside...

The last week I have not been feeling as out right buzzing with energy and I have occasionally been feeling a bit off. Having said that there has been some relapsing to old diet and some items on the 'not recommended' list from the medical intuitive. Also, there has been a consistent inner vigor that was lacking in the lack few years. It manifests in a desire to keep several projects going and a return to reading multiple books at one time and marked change in the energy and imagination that I exhibit in conversation with other people.
