Yesterday I was gifted, from three separate gardens, a week’s worth of fresh organic food!!!
The humor of these gifts, is that I’ve spent the last two weeks preparing to start a liquid diet cleanse, today…😆
What was interesting about this phenomenon was something the last wise woman said to me as she insistent on me eating these blessings from the Earth.
Her words brought me back to a shamanic initiation retreat I did with .
Ixeeya calls me Kokopelli, the fertility deity. When I told my teacher I was planning on fasting, she instantly rebuked and said that I was a fertility goddess and should not go unfed.
This memory and real time predicament sparked a realization that one can be cleansed through loving nourishment instead of deprivation.
Instead of denying myself food for a week to reset my gut, the universe offered me a more loving ultimatum. I could be cleansed and healed with local foods, cultivated with love and given with prosperity from this generous Earth.
I’ve decided to adjust my plan this week to consume nothing but these gifts and nutrient herbal teas I’ve created.
Sometimes we are given curveballs. It’s up to us to decide if we want to play ball or just watch opportunities pass us by.
