Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Either a shake with skim milk and fruit and a shot of flax oil and rice toast or bagel or cottage cheese and fruit and bagel or rice toast. Bob, tonight at tai chi we were breathing into different parts of our lungs and lower back, etc. What an interesting feeling. I have also been listening to a beginners meditation tape with the learning focus on breath and breathing. Very calming and focusing and sometimes not. I have been experimenting with my breathing all summer trying to work with it and my bike riding. Never realized there was so much to learn about breathing.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Cindy, Just love the expression " shaker " , sounds so cool!!!!! BTW @ home take my clothes to the laundry. I only iron when traveling on business. Mostly do it the night before so I don't damage anything in the morning (LOL). I know that I'm being cruel but Guy's and Irons just don't work well together.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Beverlee, Increased Awareness is a Huge Part/Net Result of " Doing the Food " . Really that your adding a shot of flax oil (it's soooo good for you) too. Your breakfast combo sounds really healthy and Very Familiar. We could almost do breakfast together in different parts of the country, no how fun would that be!!!!!

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hi Bob, My husband and I both start the day with a shake. I " blend " the night before and then store the shakes in the refrigerator overnight so I don't have so much noise in the morning. I have to get up earlier than he does, so I try to keep my morning activities to a minimum. I'm used to the shake now and just love it. I find it very soothing to find the shake waiting for me when I get to the kitchen in the morning. It feels to me like " being looked after " . Isn't that silly? :-) The other nice thing is that I can exercise pretty soon after eating the shake and eating some homemade whole wheat bread without any " side effects " from being too full.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Pati, Hello to Texas!!! Sounds like the shake is working out really well for you. WOW making it the night before and having it ready to go is a really good idea. Do you have to re-mix at all or is it still in good shape? Also the feeling of " being looked after " is HUGE. When I read that in your post just gave me a real big warm feeling, I understand. Bob , " Pat in Austin " <nj7r wrote: > > Hi Bob, > My husband and I both start the day with a shake.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Gail, Come to think of it, I've only used the laundry services one time in all the years that I've traveled, guess my issue is not sure when I'm going to get the clothes back. I also really like your idea of calling a hotel in advance and ordering a Baked Potato. What's I've done is try to get to a Wendy's and do the drive up window. Two summers ago when I was working on a project in Philly, walked to the Wendy's every night at 10:00pm, was nice to know it was waiting for me.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Gail, It was so bad for Elton, that he refused to fly until it was fixed, according to an interview, now that's wacky. I think about that and smile everytime I open up my bag of food on flights now. I just love the fact that Airlines are selling food now, another real good reason to bring my own.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Oh, they'll get them back to you the same day if you leave them out early enough. Also, less time if you pay more. I don't think you have to be on drugs to worry about your outfit matching your jet interior. Versace is launching a project this fall to design jet interiors... But that's off-topic. Logging out for the weekend to enjoy Sukkot, our harvest holiday! Lots of program friendly treats. have a nice weekend, all! See you Monday.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 I start my mornings with a shake, too. I have a much easier time eating as soon as I get up when I make a shake as opposed to cook eggs. I make a shake with 1/2 a banana or some strawberries and 8 oz oat milk and 8 oz chocolate almond milk. I change how I make my shake every 6 months or so. I just started adding the chocolate almond milk because the stores around here just started carrying it. It livens my shake up a bit. For my son, I make a shake of oat milk and George Jr. Then he eats oatmeal and the other 1/2 of my banana or some other kind of fruit. Occasionally, I'll put the George Jr. right in the oatmeal. I think the consistancy is gross when I do that but he seems to like it. I know what you mean about living in the moment. I don't meditate very often, but I have noticed that if I focus on the muscle I'm working out instead of just doing the workout thinking of what I need to get done afterwards, I feel differently afterwords. I take classes at the Y and the instructor is always telling us to focus. I feel a lot better afterwards if I can get through the workout without my mind wandering.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2006 Report Share Posted October 8, 2006 Hi everyone, I started doing all 7 steps from the start, about two months ago. However, I have stopped the journal temporarily. I decided to give myself permission to stop until my master's thesis is completed. Maybe I will start again once I am past the most difficult part of the thesis. I feel much more balanced and have higher self-esteem, now that I am off sugar. I was taking St. John's Wort everyday and now I do not need it. Fruit tastes sweet enough to satisfy without the overindulgence. I have found that the fruit does not trigger further desire for a more sugary products. However, I do think about my favorite treat and think every few months or a couple times a year is okay. I miss some of my other favorites too. I am also staying away from flours except for occasionally. I eat corn tortillas, brown rice, quinoa. There is a brown rice tortilla at whole foods that is pretty good I have sometimes too. I just started having the shake more often. It is fast, and easy. I even put lettuce in it! I have gone to a raw food restaurant a couple of times and felt great after the meal, I was not hungry again for several hours, much longer than after a cooked meal. I want to start having more raw food. (waiting for a couple of uncookbooks from amazon.) But not sure how to get 20 grams of protein at a meal. I was reading one place not to mix raw and cooked food. (Of course it may be for the full-time raw foodist.) But if I am eating a meal of raw food I would like to stick to the principle if it makes a difference. I cannot imagine eating a full cup of raw nuts which comes in at 680 -840 calories. Any suggestions? It it great to have fellow radiant people to communicate with. I just joined radiant northern California too. Blessings, Deanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Hi Bob, Thanks for the reply and the welcome. My shake does " settle " a bit in the refrigerator overnight, but giving the container a few vigorous shakes seems to mix it right back together again with no problems. And the good taste and appealing scent of the vanilla in it helps make me feel more like eating at that early hour. Thanks for all the help and support.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 Pati, After our conversation, I tried keeping my shake overnight too.
