Thank you to all who have visited and commented on this site. It is still a work in progress, but I appreciate your support and insight. As a follow up to yesterday’s post I found an article regarding mindful eating by Bryan Kest. Click here to read.
If we are following the principle of observing (previously discussed), we will eat to achieve optimal performance. A common misconception is that we need to eat a large amount to perform well, when in fact, less can be more.
On that same note, let’s transition into today’s topic- Breakfast. Why would I title it breaking the fast? Well each morning we are breaking the fast our digestive tract has had. Those of you who have participated in an active cleanse know how important it is to introduce food back to the body in the lightest form possible. It is the same with our initial meal of the day. Our bodies have taken the night to heal to cleanse. It is important to take this into consideration when choosing your morning meal. Why not begin your day in the cleanest way possible.
What would a clean breakfast include? If our goal is to maximize our energy and keep our gastrointestinal tract clean, foods with a high-water content are best, including fruits, vegetables and their juices.

From this day forward commit yourself to eating foods that are clean, energizing, and nourishing to your body.
