Cleaning Out


I am just one week away from the doctors appointment and the future judgment on my knee. With the hour closing in I am actually letting go of the anxiety and restlessness that seems to have dominated my life over the past year. It has been an entire month since I last checked in here. During this time I have initiated a thorough cleansing of my mind as well as my degrading body. I needed new life and energy. It has been a month of introspective, meditation and release under the guidance of a professional healer, leading to a far healthier vision of my current life-situation. I seem to have forgotten that the path of life is long and that every little detail will fit in in the bigger picture in the end.

I have given in to life and lived it as best as I could. A longed for and very much needed injection of good energy right in the vein which slowly changed my state of mind in the right, positive direction. As a direct consequence I decided to take the physical (and very mental) challenge to go on a cleanse/ fast to purify and lighten my conscience by undergoing a strict internal spring cleaning.  Over almost a month I am following a very strict – and not too far from my normal vegetarian - diet-regime and fast while I dedicate myself to meditation, stretching and yoga (to the very limited extent I am capable of) as well as my other daily chores. I have done cleansing several times before and know more or less what to expect , and I am glad to recognize the benefits and positive influence treating my body well brings along.

This type of cleansing brings topics and ghosts hidden in the sub conscience out in the open, free to be treated, accepted and released, out of my system. The internal spring cleaning becomes a mental spring cleaning too and I intend to benefit from it when the knee in a short while will be recovering once again.

Spring is here. Apart from the very wintery snow the days has slowly grown longer and the sun is warming you up around the heart, while you shelter from the wind. People wear smiles more loosely and everything is starting anew. I can hear the mountains calling me from the distance. I am getting ready for an expected reencounter. Soon!?!
