Total Cleanse.

Renew, Refresh, Revitalize. 

I  needed the triple R's and I thought a juice cleanse would be the perfect solution. 

I browsed the google, and quickly came across Total Cleanse. 

The Juice:

The site was super professional and easy to navigate it helped me choose the 'Custom 3 day Cleanse' and put together these flavours.

I was only looking for a gentle re-set, otherwise I would have opted for a 5 day. 

Of course Very Berry was my favourite. Though I was surprised how quickly I got a taste for the Lemon Rush. Containing cayenne, this juice is fairly spicy, but I find myself missing it now that the cleanse is over, and I am a little sad that I wasn't able to try the Citrus Splash flavour, it wasn't an option for me but it looks so good! 

Total Cleanse, A Company:

The customer service is on point, I was able to choose what weekend I wanted to start the cleanse on, and they will have it shipped to you before that morning. When I missed the Fed Ex man, I immediately got a call from customer service offering to call Fed Ex for me and have them re try that day. And it worked! I was so impressed. 

How Did I Feel?

After the 3 days I felt pretty good, fairly hungry though that's normal.

My mind and body didn't feel bogged down anymore, I felt refreshed. I probably could have gone on for the extra 2 days. The juices kept me full enough where I wasn't starving or disoriented at all throughout the day, I know that is a common fear with cleansing.

 I felt that my body was receiving enough nutrients throughout the day. This cleanse helped my skin clear up, and I am continuing to stay mindful of how much water I am drinking on a daily basis, to help flush toxins out. I would definitely purchase this cleanse again.

You can see their full list of cleanses here: Cleansing Options.

Have you guys tried juice cleanses? 

I have always wanted to try a tea cleanse as well, anybody have any experience with that?

Do Not Dwell On Your Mistakes Or Others.

“We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future.” ― Steve Maraboli 

Personally I do not judge people for much, I try to practice being understanding and open minded. Though this sometimes makes me forget how judgemental the world can be, 

this can also get me into trouble sometimes. 

We all need to practice being more understanding, we all have made mistakes, done things we probably should not have. Though different from one another, 

nobody lives their life without at lease one or two oopsies. 

To be forgiving and understanding in this world is an uncommon trait that needs to catch on. 

Not only to other people, but to ourselves. 

We have to understand when we have made a mistake, acknowledge it, learn from it, and move on. Shit happens, it's human. No matter what it was, like Steve Maraboli said, you are not your struggles, they do not define you, and you can alter your life immensly that way.

Nobody deserves to live with regret and guilt, that is not what this life is for. This life is for curiosity, exploration, and trying new things, 

it's only human.

A Positive outlook to brighten your day.

Love One Another.

"Love one another and help others to rise to higher levels, simply by pouring out love. Love is infectious and the greatest healing energy." - Sai Baba

When we spread love, we spread positive energy. Love one another, don't let petty things come between yourself and others. The littlest things can make the largest impact on somebody else's life. A smile, a kind gesture, could be exactly what they needed to brighten up their day, and when their day is bright, who knows what great things they can accomplish. 

A positive outlook to brighten your day. 

Love,
