Spring Detox Time!
Hey guys! It's that time of the year when you just want a fresh start to everything, so... we're doing a detox for 30 days :)
We have a group of us that are going to do the lemonade detox- often known as the Master Cleanse Detox, which means we drink a very specific mixture of pure water, fresh, organic lemon juice, grade B maple syrup (also known as #2 Amber or Dark, in Canada), and cayenne pepper. This may sound weird, but it actually tastes great (to me anyway).
The detox involves no other food. I know this sounds extreme, but it makes you feel wonderful! 1 litre of salt water is to be drunk in the morning (which will go right through you, doing a sweep of the bowels), and then a laxative tea can be taken before bed (which will allow you to expel much more in the morning). After two weeks of this detox you will be amazed that you are still expelling... sounds gross, but it's needed. We are storing so much "crap" inside our bodies and it has to exit or it will help to cause a whole slew of malfunctions and diseases eventually.
If you are feeling low energy, or are craving ridiculous things like baguettes, chips or other heavy carbs, just add a little bit more maple syrup to the lemonade. You should not feel tired or weak while doing this detox (at least it has been my experience that I have more energy than I ever did before).
So, whomever would like to join in, even if you do it just for a few days to start with, please follow along with me on facebook for daily updates on how it's going!

This is where your plastic ends up: Inside the bellies of birds
This is the most shocking and sad thing... Mama birds living out in the ocean are mistaking the giant island of colourful plastic as food, and they are feeding it to their babies, which of course can never be digested, so their bellies become full and they die.
We need to very carefully examine what products we are buying. If something can be purchased without being canned, bottled or packaged, then it should be. I caught myself the other week reaching for a can of diced tomatoes, but then put it back because I realized how stupid it was- I normally buy fresh tomatoes- no packaging - duh.
It's so easy to become mesmerized when shopping, so make a list before you go, and just really think about what it is we are doing to this beautiful, living planet.
Love you all. I know you are trying :)

A World Without Water: Amazing and Eye-Opening Documentary:
This documentary is really important, and it should be shown to every kid in the world so they understand the importance of not using too much water. I, myself, have been very unclear in the past about why we should all conserve water, because in school I was taught that all the water used in the world simply returns back to the water systems through evaporation, precipitation, percolation etc...
However things happen differently when corporations take over the water and move it to other countries to sell. Coca Cola, for example, goes into poor countries that are already water-stressed, and opens up giant factories where they pump up half a million litres of water from beneath the desert sands every single day! They use 3 litres of water for every 1 litre of Coca Cola made. Places like Rajastan India, are literally not able to find water to drink, grow food or bathe with- their wells are 180 feet deep (dug by hand) and still running dry. How can the heads of Coca Cola sleep at night? Please Please Please do not support Coca Cola by buying their products. It's the very least we can do. And please watch this eye-opening film :) xo
Here is the link to the full movie.

Watch this Documentary- Amazing:
This is an incredible documentary that has nothing to do with veganism, but everything to do with everything else... not very descriptive? You have to watch it. I was amazed at how far people will go to ensure their stay in power and wealth.
Control is the name of the game, and it is carried out with fear as the primary tool.
