Juice Feast-Day 32





!!! Let The Sun Shine !!!
Another Miracle While Feasting


Ahhh...I'm getting used to miracles. Another rather miraculous thing happened to me today. It would seem that I no longer need to wear sunglasses (although it's probably still a good idea). As I was driving to the store today, I reached into the middle console (out of habit) to grab my sunglasses. Oops! Shoot. Left them at home. But... wait!! I'm not squinting? I'm not squinting! There's not a cloud in the sky and I'm not squinting!

Now this is crazy because normally my eyes are VERY sensitive to light. Even with my windshield visor down and sunglasses on, I still drive around squinting-day or night (oncoming headlights at night really bug me). Even when walking out into bright sunlight after being inside stores today, I still never had to squint! Hmm....it appears that my body (with the help of all of this juicy goodness) has set out to correct this problem.

Blueberry Extract & Visual Acuity

So guess what else? Tonight I was reading about the various healing properties of the of fruits I've been eating. I had done some research on the greens before, but so far with the fruits, I've just been juicing whatever appeals to me most.


Lately I've been eating tons of berries-especially blueberries ( I love them. They are very Minnesota). Here's a quote from my favorite juicing book, The Complete Book of Juicing by Michael T.Murry, N.D. (It's so weird that on the day I notice my eyes are less sensitive to light, I would also run across this info...a happy cosmic event indeed!)

"...During World War II, British Royal Air Force pilots consumed bilberry (a variety of blueberry) preserves before their night missions, believing the folk wisdom that bilberries improve night vision. After the war, numerous studies demonstrated that blueberry extracts do in fact improve nighttime visual acuity and lead to quicker adjustment to darkness and faster restoration of visual acuity after exposure to glare..."

I've been juicing either strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, cherries and blueberries nearly every day on this feast. So there it is folks. The power of juicing! Ahhhhhh! I LOVE this juice feast!!!!! I am SOOOO grateful for all of the healing taking place in my mind, body and spirit on this feast!

---------------------------

Sleep & dreams: 5 hrs. Dreamt about my favorite rock band (U2). Every 3-4 months or so, I dream that I'm sitting around talking with Bono, Edge, Adam, and Larry. Sometimes it's in a diner. Sometimes at a pub. We just shoot the breeze. I ask them stuff about what they've been up to. They ask me stuff about what I've been up to. We talk about politics and current events. They relay funny stories about ditching the paparazzi, or occasionally give me tickets to a dream time concert. Sometimes they raise a little hell with the juke box. At times (usually Bono) has to dash off because of some special project or public appearance. Even in dream time, they seem quite busy.

It all seems very real. Very friendly. Very normal. It had been a while since we sat down and chatted and I enjoyed catching up with them.

Exercise: walk with Buck

Sauna: nope

Energy: Do I even have to say it? Awesome as usual-who needs sleep anyway?

Physical observations: My sensitivity to light seems to have improved drastically. Some kind of unusual things are happening with my skin, too. I've had freckles, sun spots and former lesions, reappear one day and disappear the next. Having some small, short-lived (like 24 hrs) outbreaks of acne, too.
