Colonics, Cravings, and the Calm After the Storm
Today marks Day 3 of my juice fast following the ZenCleanz protocol I began on Friday.
I’ve been solo at my temple for this entire process—choosing to be fully present, unplugged, and in communion with the cleanse.
🌀 The Flow So Far:
- Friday: Full ZenCleanz protocol. A deep inner reset.
- Saturday: 100% juice fasting. No solids. No supplements. Just liquid life.
- Sunday morning: First colonic. Released mucoid plaque—a tangible and powerful sign that the body was ready to let go.
- Today (Monday): Integration. Rest. Clarity. Almost no hunger.
- Tomorrow (Tuesday): Second colonic booked at 8:00 a.m.
💧 Today’s State: Stillness + Integration
- Hunger level: 1/10 most of the day, occasionally 2/10.
- Mind: Clear. Calm. Unrushed.
- Body: Light movement—short jog, some time on the rebounder, light stretching.
- Energy: Present but precious.
I could feel my system telling me to preserve energy, not spend it.
No crash. No cravings. Just subtle waves of clarity.
It feels like the day between storms—not chaotic, not euphoric—just deeply real.
🥤 The Power of Juice Abundance: My Secret Weapon
One of the key elements making this fast not only sustainable but actually enjoyable has been the abundance of fresh, homemade juices.
I’ve been drinking around 5 to 6 liters per day, rotating between:
- Green juices
- Pineapple juice
- Coconut water
- Grape juice
- Cucumber, apple, and lemon blends
All made in a blender and strained through a nut milk bag—no fiber, no pulp, just pure liquid light.
This abundance allows me to:
- Stay deeply nourished without triggering digestion
- Flood my body with enzymes, minerals, and hydration
- Maintain emotional ease and physical energy
- Avoid the crash that comes from calorie restriction or over-willpowering
I’m not forcing myself through this fast.
I’m flowing through it.
Even though I’m following the ZenCleanz protocol with strict discipline, I don’t feel like I’m depriving myself.
There’s no hunger war. No internal resistance.
Just steady rhythm and vibrant fuel.
WATER FAST?
I do imagine that in the future, I might experiment with more restrictive fasts—like coconut water only, or even water-only.
But for this phase of my journey, abundance is the magic.
Having this nutrient-rich variety of juices is what makes this process:
- Sustainable
- Pleasurable
- And deeply successful
It’s not just a cleanse.
It’s an upgrade—powered by liquid nutrition and inner peace.
🌙 Night Rituals: Warm Water, Lemon, Celtic Salt & Ginger
In the evenings, I’ve felt my body craving warmth—not food, not stimulation, but something grounding, mineral-rich, and soothing.
So I’ve been making a simple, powerful tonic:
- Warm water
- A squeeze of fresh lemon
- A pinch of Celtic sea salt
- A few slices or grates of fresh ginger
This little evening ritual has become a medicine in itself.
It:
- Replenishes electrolytes
- Soothes the nervous system
- Grounds me into my body
- Supports hydration and deep rest
It’s amazing how this one warm cup can feel like a hug from the inside.
Especially on a juice fast, where everything is cold, raw, and light, having this touch of warmth creates balance.
It’s not breaking the fast—
It’s honoring the body’s intelligence.
And every time I drink it, I feel myself dropping deeper into the experience with ease and grace.
🌿 Why This Feels Important to Share:
Because most people only talk about the extremes:
“I released everything!” or “I felt like dying!”
But this middle space—the day of silence, stillness, and subtle recalibration—is just as sacred.
This is when the body integrates.
This is when the nervous system resets.
This is when true alignment begins.
🙏 For Those Considering ZenCleanz or a Juice Fast:
Know this:
- You don’t have to do it in chaos.
- You don’t have to push.
- You don’t need noise, distractions, or busy schedules.
Give yourself space.
Be alone if you can.
Let the silence speak.
I’ve found that cleansing isn’t just physical—it’s energetic, emotional, spiritual.
And it’s not always dramatic.
Sometimes, like today, it’s just quiet integration.
And that’s where the power hides.
Stay tuned for tomorrow’s update post-second colonic.
The journey continues… 🧘♂️✨
