The 10-day sugar detox came and went and I am still going.
If it feels good, then why stop now?
I paired the detox with transcendental meditation (TM) twice a day for 20 minutes each. It was a one-two punch in my life. I feel clear, energized, focused, efficient, healthy, calm, creative and productive.
I am burning through my dream list of things to do. Things are falling into place everywhere - mind, body, spirit, work, home and relationships.
The research showing the impact of TM is compelling. It is deep rest that releases stress - both old and new - and rewires the brain. In this way, it is healing and makes space for incredible insights and creativity and energy.
Every year has a theme and this year my theme is a commitment to deep acts of self-love. Yes, life is supposed to feel this good.
