Hey all! For some reason no matter what I do, I cannot seem to post the long update I did yesterday about my road trip. Eek! So I’ll do a quick condensed version here.
The trip went very well and I accomplished almost everything I went out there to do. The only thing I didn’t get a chance to do is take foliage pictures (other than one in Northeast Ohio, pictured below), because there was no foliage (oddly enough) in Southern New Hampshire. I saw some old friends, including an ex boyfriend with whom I made peace with. He was the guy I broke up with back in 2007 and it was a seemingly terrible relationship that propelled me into alcohol abuse, not to mention a 40+ pound weight gain. Looking back on it now, I see it was a beautiful thing and why it all happened in the first place! Anyway, I got to spend time with him, talking about metaphysical things, talking about our relationship, etc. There was a lot of love and forgiveness present.
Food-wise, I did good until the day after my last post – about two or so days into my road trip I suddenly had an overwhelming urge for fast food/dairy. It all went downhill from there food-wise! As of today however I am back on vegan eating (and actually fruit day, since it’s Thursday and class day) and will probably do it for the foreseeable future. I’m going this morning (in less than an hour, which means I better wrap this post up quick!) to get another B.E.S.T. kinesiology session with a doctor – the same kind of session mentioned in this post.
Other than diet, I did very well on the road trip. I stayed 100% sober from alcohol, which is a miracle in itself, given the fact that I was surrounded by old triggers nearly the entire time. I also did all of my daily concentration and meditation exercises every single day, no matter how tired I was or how late I got back to my hotel room. I surpassed old ideas that I’ve had of myself not having self-discipline or will power. I learned I have both of these qualities and am strengthening them each day!
I stopped by several metaphysical stores in different cities and states and managed to get a pretty interesting crystal collection going. I’ll be writing more about that on my SpiriualGal.com site later.
So anyway, I’m going to ask the doctor today about why I was triggered to eat fast food so badly on the road. I have some other things I want to talk to her about, including various spiritual experiences I’ve been having lately.
I’ll update later about how the session goes! I hope you all have a fabulous Thursday morning. Here are a few random pictures from Boston, plus a foliage picture from Ohio.
