Today's Harvest

This is a photograph of today’s main meals. I’m currently on the 15th day of a liquid fast where I’m consuming only vegetable juices, fruit juices, vegetable broth and herbal teas. This fast was triggered by a severe reaction to the antibiotics I was prescribed for dental work. I was motivated to rid my body of the toxins after a horrible experience that included gaining 15 pounds due to swelling, extreme itching, redness, and skin exfoliation. A physical fast, for me, is always a spiritual fast, since it tunes me into subtle insights. To my surprise the timing of my fast corresponds with harvest time in the garden. What a revelation! How did that happen? The creator has a master plan. I’m finding that most of the food I consume comes straight out of my backyard garden. I’m happy to be certain that most of the food I’m taking in is organically grown. It feels good that none of it is grown with inorganic fertilizers and inorganic pesticides. Today’s vegetable juice consisted of Jamaican Callaloo, moringa, kale, cabbage, collard greens, tomato, banana peppers, and fresh non-genetically modified corn cut off the cob. I have found it challenging to find vegetable combinations that taste good in juice form. Today’s combination was delicious, the corn gave it a creamy texture, and I felt an immediate boost of energy as soon as I drank it.
