Day Three December

Good Morning,

I want to share that someone wrote me and really made a request for more info on this BLOG, recipes etc. I believe that on the daily mailing there are links to lots of recipes, but I will check into it. I have mostly been using this portion of the blog between us to share my personal experience, as like you, I take it one day at a time. But I am happy to step back from that position and share more info rather than personal experience, if that is more helpful. So let me know.
Here is a link that could be really helpful and beneficial
If you would like to learn more about cleansing, watch Shayla Mihaly's CleanseEasy.com FREE Video Series on Cleansing Dos and Don'ts, including Why Toxins Make You Fat & Sick.

Have a wonderful day. Love. T

One of my favorite drinks,

Grapefruit juice
Wheat grass juice (you can buy frozen cubes of wheatgrass in most heath food stores)
dash of salt
and sparking water if you choose.

Day Six DECEMBER

One thing about December for me is it always passes so quickly.
I love that I was able to stay on the farm all day, it definitely makes it easier to juice when my schedule isn't so full or varied.
For those of you who don't like wheatgrass, try mixing it with grapefruit juice and sparkling water!
Also green supplement powder can be mixed easily into lots of juice.
The Happy Herbalist is a great resource for Kombucha and more... Check him out on line!
remember to get plenty of fresh air and exercise and surround your self with positive music, books and conversations especially when you are juicing and your heart is so open and receptive!
Be kind to yourself andothers. SLOW down and enjoy every moment!
I am so grateful for juice and YOU!

Love,
Terces

December continues...

How are you feeling?
I notice how much better I feel when I juice. When I find myself hungry I
Make another juice and or have a glass of water. My favorite quick drink is homemade
Kombucha with vita mineral green powder added. I always experience a pick me up in
Energy and any hunger subsides.
Wheatgrass continues to be a magical addition to my diet, even though many days
I resist it.
if you have any gum issues it is a wonderful and healing mouth wash, just swish for several minutes and then spit out.
Thank you all for sharing with me.

I love you
Terces

DECEMBER Day Three

Good Evening,

Had a great early start to my day on the farm before heading to San Francisco to lead our Community Building workshop.
Started with hot lemon water and then tea, lots of water and green juice and then a salad for lunch. Just felt like I needed more energy and hadn't planned well enough ahead. continued to have lots of water and actually felt great the remainder of the day.

I have green juice set up for tomorrow, Yeah!

I am grateful for this on line community. Thank you for being here.

Love, Terces

ANOTHER AMAZING MONTH

Hi Everyone,

Hope you check this blog. Thank you for another month of juicing together.
I am so grateful for you all.
Remember to keep on consuming lots of juice and water and take good care of yourself.
Ill be here next month and look forward to meeting you again.
Love. Terces

Aloha. I am back!

Hi Everyone,

I apologize for not being in touch via the blog yet in November. We arrived back from leading our community building workshop on the 2nd and then it was hit the ground running. This is a time of change and boy are things changing FAST around here!
I promised I would share a typical day of JUICING, so here goes.

First thing in the morning while I am starting the farm crew breakfast (after feeding the chickens and opening up all he coops and pens) I make either hot water with fresh lemon for Matthew and myself, or plum paste "tea" with hot water (a super alkalizing hot drink).

Then it is kale, celery and cucumber juice, although when cucumbers price goes through the roof I usually put in an apple! I also like grapefruit with wheatgrass juice (and a frozen version is available at most health stores).

Then I sometimes have tea sitting around the fire while the crew eats and we all "clear" together.

A few hours later I will have either another green drink sometimes with added avocado, or perhaps some nut milk (almond) with cinnamon and a banana ( if I am having "sweet" drinks, or citrus (my favorite is grapefruit in the winter), I also add sprouts and blend it together.

i am of course, drinking lots of cold or warm water in between juices.

I feed the lunch crew and may have a hot cider (from fresh apples) or carrot with ginger juice, or homemade kombucha with a couple teaspoons vitamineral green powder.

more water and often wheat grass juice, a few hours after lunch

Then in the evening another green drink or tea with chlorella tablets!


Sweet Dreams.

Love you all, keep up the great work of caring so deeply for yourselves and one another.

Love.
Terces

DAY SEVEN and BEYOND

Congratulations on arriving to DAY SEVEN. Celebrate however you got here!
No matter what your experience was you are a champion for just taking on your health.
Some of you may want to keep going, juicing mostly and slowly adding in good wholesome food, Others may be ready to bite down on some solid food as soon as possible. Listen to your body and take it easy. Start with fresh veggies, salads and fruits.
Chew, Chew, Chew.... breathe, breathe, breathe.....
Acknowledge yourself and your commitment to your body!
Thank you for being there for me!
I head to Los Angeles this afternoon for Leaders Causing Leaders, where we are both speaking over the weekend.
Then back to the farm on Sunday evening and into San Francisco for our Monday meetings.
I am still appreciating the clarity from JUICING and the energy as well.
Have a great month, see you in November, right here!
Love. Terces

KEEP GOING

Good Morning,

I don't know about you but yesterday was a turning point for me. I felt the old "energy" and "clarity" that calls me to on going juicing. I also was inspired and lighter in my heart as well.
I juiced watermelon, jalapeno pepper and lemon. It was cooling and warming and wonderful for the rainy day we had here on the farm.
Volunteers helped collect the most butternut squash I have ever seen! They were having fun and learning about farming from the working on a farm perspective.
WE are at the end of our cucumbers and I am getting ready to go juice some for a great alkalizing drink.
I also enjoy fresh juiced tomatoes, hot pepper and carrot with celery for a wonderful version of a "bloody mary mix" cocktail (without the alcohol, of course!)
Thank you for calling me back into the full experience of juicing, I am so grateful for the community that keeps me going.
Love you all.
Have a wonderful day.

Cool October

The sunny hot days are gone, tonight it is cool and windy and today we had rain!
While I appreciate the moisture and so does the dry earth, I have to remember to wipe off my dogs feet before they jump up onto the bed, its MUD SEASON!
I feel good, healthier and while there are lots of pressures facing us right now from the outside, there is more peace internally when I am juicing.
Right now we have lots of watermelons and I love to juice the fruit and peel, I add a little lemon and chili for a cooling drink.
Apples are ripening now and I will start juicing them along with collards and kale.
I still start my day with hot water and some plum paste, a alkalizing beginning of each day.
Wheat grass is my standard morning and midday pick me up, even if I use it to swish only, it is so good for mouth health.
Keep sharing with me as well, your wisdom, inspiration and encouragement support me as well.
Thanks for making health a priority.
Love. Terces

Is it really OCTOBER!

I am back!
I have had or created for myself, however you see it, some of the most challenging months of my life! I am SO GRATEFUL to be clearing out with a full JUICE week! for several months now I have cut my JUICE week short, due to travel or schedule, and I AM SO READY FOR THIS WEEK ITH ALL OF YOU!
I actually started early as again I am traveling but this time I did not let that STOP me.

I am aware of how much louder my self diminishing mind gets when I don't JUICE on a regular monthly schedule, like I said I would. I can also feel the impact of partially juicing on my physical health, so I FEEL SO GOOD to be joining you this month!
Thanks to all of you who keep the group, even though we are only connected online, and in the BIG INE energy sense, for keeping us all together! if I am also"speaking tooters who quit or got discouraged, come on back and simply start again!

I bought a new juicer, as I am being challenged to keep enough juice here on the farm for juicing,it is a Breville Juice Fountain, 850 RPM motor and easy to clean. Do what you need todo to set yourself up!

I am thrilled to be reaching out to each one of you!

love, T

YEAH SEPTEMBER

I have NO IDEA where the summer went but we are off to Vinalhaven for our annual visit with Matthew's parents who summer there! Is it really September? I have a birthday on the 9th and am thinking about my health and how great I feel.
I fasted a day early this month as I needed to for some lab tests for my insurance application and when they took my blood pressure they said, "you have the blood pressure of a teenager!" I have always known it was low but seems to be staying there as I age as well.

Remember to drink lots of fresh water.
Again I share some things that I do regularly for my health and you are open to try them or not.
I add Vitamineral green to juices and kombucha. I take Chlorella throughout the day and ALWAYS travel with it. I also have wheatgrass or wheatgrass juice daily. I am not into just chewing it (like a cow) and then throwing it out when there is not more juice in the fiber! Don't need to worry about purchasing a wheat grass juicer that way!

Hot water and plum paste or lemon is a great way to start the day alkalizing your system and it tastes good too!

Green juice with some hot chili and avocado is a wonderful "meal".

I fly all night tonight and travel a good bit of tomorrow so won't check in again until day four, so take good care of yourselves, know that what you are doing is GOOD FOR YOU!

Here is a link to a wonderful program a dear friend of mine has put together with lots of free informational videos on cleansing. I HIGHLY recommend it to you all.

Mid week August

Hi,

I am traveling tomorrow so want to check in with you all now. We are heading to Kansas City to lead our Community Building Workshop! We are also going to visit a few farms of friends while there before the workshop starts.
I was thinking this morning as I made our plum paste tea, that I haven't shared that with you yet. We take a small amount of plum paste (you can find it in the Asian food section of your grocer) and add warm to hot water for an ALKALINE drink in the morning. It is the MOST alkaline food there is!
Also a great website for juicing is juicefeasting.com there are so many resources to support your juicing/cleansing.
Are you remembering to practice affirming your amazing self while juicing? You are loved, you are adored, you are deeply appreciated and I am proud of you too.
Have fun.
Love. Terces

First Days of August

Hi Everyone,

Don't really know how many of you are still doing the week long JUICE each month but grateful for however many of you are out there. I so appreciate the partnership.
No matter where you are, and I know some new folks have joined us BE GOOD TO YOURSELF!
Drink lots of water, I suggest some wheatgrass, even if you mix it with apple juice for starters.
Green juice with kale, celery, cucumber and some lemon is my favorite.
I also enjoy lemonade in the hot months of summer, I blend it with ice and make a slushy on the hottest of days, adding some Vitamineral Green as well.
I enjoy kombucha with Vitamineral Green too.
Right now blackberries are in full season and those blended with sparkling water is a great refresher. But most important is to do what works for your body best. What you want is a break from digestion and some detox from toxins built up over time.
I know most folks don't talk about these things but wheatgrass and coffee are wonderful enemas for a deeper cleansing experience and a liver and intestinal cleanse. If you want to know more, ask me!
What do you love about yourself?

Love. Terces

FINAL days of JULY

Hi Everyone,

I apologize not not writing much this month, first time for me, and while I have been super busy I have also missed our connection. I am going to JUICE another week as my body just wasn't in sync with it this week. I am so inspired by all of you and grateful for the time we share and the stories that connect us all.
I still drink JUICE throughout the day and also kombucha (yes I make my own with Rooibos) and love it mixed with Vitamineral Green! You can order new SCOBY from Happy Herbalist on line and it comes with amazing information booklet with all you would ever want to know about fermented foods too!
The farm is in full force right now, and the weather is HOT! Lots to keep us busy and growing.
Love you all,
Terces

First few days of July

Happy Independence Day!

What new freedom are you celebrating?
I am thrilled to be celebrating being complete with the father of my youngest son. What I mean by that is I have finally said all I wanted to say (for over 20 years now) and all I am left with is respect, admiration and love for him and the difference he made in my life.
I apologize for not writing the first two days, I simply was struggling with getting myself in alignment for JUICING this month. I had been working on my health and well being and just returned from Mexico, where we went to visit the families of some of our employees, as well as to take a child (17 years old) of one of our farm members to meet her grandparents in Mexico for the first time. It was a special and moving trip, so much transformation is cross
How are you treating yourself this month?
What phase of cleansing are you in?
I would love to hear from you.
Have a great holiday Monday and know you are loved.
love. Terces

One last note...

I wanted to share with you all a great juice.
Mix Vitaqmineral green, 1 teaspoon with some kombucha (I make mine with Rooibos), and stir. It is a wonderful summer drink filled with good stuff for your body!
Love you all.
Terces

DAY SIX AND SEVEN

Hi Everyone,

Well, here we are on the last day of Juicing this month! Seems like the week went by quickly.
I want to share something with you that occurs almost as a miracle to me, and I do understand that folks don't always share this honestly.
Here goes.
I have often heard of wheat grass enemas and implants, but other than one or two other times, years ago the idea or benefits of them had slipped my mind. Then this month I just wasn't feeling that great. Actually since I returned from Italy. I have had the thought that breaking my JUICING week in Rome wasn't perhaps the best for my body! Other thoughts of aging, feeling discouraged, etc seemed to grad a hold more tightly to my attention. I wasn't able to brush them off. I was also struggling with hemorrhoids and they too seemed to be more persistent and painful.
I am not sure where the thought came from, but there it was. Try a wheat grass implant. Now, I wasn't sure I understood what that exactly was so I went to my computer and looked it up.
There it was, with simple instructions on how to give myself one.
So I did.
WOW, I am amazed at how I feel. This is the third morning of doing one and almost all my symptoms are gone! I feel energized, clearer, happier, more focused and out of pain.
So, I am sharing this as I highly recommend it. It is pretty simple to do and painless too.
If you need instructions, let me know, but really the good old internet is pretty helpful on this one.
That said, what was your experience this month?
How can I support you even more?
Have a great month, the sun is shinning today and that warms my soul.

Love. Terces

DAY THREE and FOUR

Hi There,

Well how are you doing? What are your challenges and triumphants?
Here is one of mine, a big one for me, that may seem surprising to you.
Just yesterday, late in the day, when I was still not feeling that great and I started to get a bit of heart burn, I had the realization that my body needed some sprouts. I went into the kitchen and put a handful in a bowl and eat them, with a bit of lemon juice on them as well. Shortly after I felt much better and realized that I RARELY see food as my ally! Mostly for most of my life I have manipulated by body in some way with food. It might be counting calories(when I was younger), treats for something, to get me to do something I wasn't really thrilled about(oh sure I'll go do that and then stop for something or get something in that same direction along the way)... you get the idea. WOW what a wake up it was, to really start to see food as my ally, as on my side, the side of health and well being. I am still working through the insight and it is deep and powerful and still new. So I'll share as more reveals itself.
How about you?
Rained all day, a fluke for California this time of year!
Went for a foot massage... so amazing and relaxing and a great get away in the rain.
Remember to drink plenty of water and oh yes, a great "tea" is the plum paste Umeboshi with a little warm water, It is the most alkalizing food there is. A little bit goes a long way, it is HIGHLY concentrated. Available in most health food store, and also where Japanese specialty items are sold.
Love. Terces

DAY TWO JUNE

Good Morning,
Was so wonderful going to Jeffrey and Carrye's wedding yesterday and seeing the young people we have mentored over the years choose marriage. It was also so great to meet their parents and see the community that has gathered around them.
They also had some delicious homemade Gingerale that was the perfect fit for how I was feeling.
I did have some salad and later in the day a couple cherries that are just ripening on our trees and I feel good.
This morning Green Juice with a touch of fresh grapefruit juice and later a fresh strawberry smoothie.
How are you doing.
I did an intestinal cleanse recently so am being careful not to under nourish myself, sometimes my tendency when juicing.
Today I am going to have a green juice with Avocado added for some more substance as well.
How are you feeling?
How are you going to nourish yourself today, in some special way?
Love you all.
Thanks for being here... and if you read into yesterdays post that it wasn't ok to Juice some months and not others, I apologize, I simply wanted to make sure that those on the list were experiencing the benefits of the communication, support and community.
Love,
Terces
