Yoga season detox (from cold season to warm)

For 3 days in our family we have done a fast time. Fasting with light centrifuge of veggies and fruit, fresh organic infusion, bouillon of veggies from our garden. This time gone away in silence, meditation, gardening, walk and more has given more complicity, and help us to find new mindfulness and new tastefulness.

At this point I want to say: dont eat to lose weight or to get more weight, but eat to feel better, to take care of us and our loved ones.

Anyone can choose freely what to eat, but sometimes our choice is unaware or even worst when to have a lunch has becomen a routine. 

While reducing food portion for a few days, we understood that fasting (including only fresh juice and bouillon) is awakening our senses again from a state of hibernation, and may be finding our body coordinates, reseting our taste and our mind so to sudden restart with mindfulness our own life.

I would say someone who is all-counscious vegan or even openminded macrobiotic can be epicurean.  I do believe in the possibility to change our food education and habits. At 30 years old for exemple, we have many pieces of food education (including fetal, infantil, childhood and adulthood diets) and we have a food pattern made of some really creative fabrication!  I remember myself at 18 eating almost nothing (low fat yogurt and fruit) which had no sense except to be fashionable and beloved. And after a period of being pissed of food, a new way of eating. In a nutshell, it is possible to shut up emotion chaos and having care of yourself for a few days facing your food pattern while fasting. Objective: reset your senses and feelings about food to genuine taste (infantil taste?) and slowly recognize new taste. In a few words tactics is decrease to increase.

You asked (facebook, twitter @mammayoga and radio) me for fasting:

- what to do when happen some signs on the peel?

I personnally use antisectic cream called Kimuli (biosophia)'made of tea tree oil.

- how to prepare fasting?

Classical ayurvedic remedy called triphala (biosophia or any other) for 15 days before. I drink it with water. It can be used also to prepare deeper cleansing.

- what to do when against headache for fasting?

During first 24 hours headache is normal as if you quit drinking coffee. I personally use umeboshi plum.

- how many times do you fast during a year?

Once upon a time the season were 4... Fasting was done during the fifth season, twice a year when changing from cold to warm season and the opposite. But nowadays I would say once during a period of 3/4 days of cold before a warm period, before summer. And some other times as you feel to do it.

- what to do if fasting bring in mind mental fixations and nightmare?

I would say meditate and dont analyse tour nightmare.

Thanks.

Endorse the best people you know to heal the world

Yoga world is a small world where you meet good and bad persons like anywhere else, but I decided to focus on good ones.

If you come in Italy You may meet one day Guido Gabrielli, an openminded and pro publisher, a yoga student and since now a foreveryoung movie actor/director.

Guido has becomen a spiritual sparring partner of mine as We lived both in Milan and be part of a small yoga community.

Lastly I loved Guido Gabrielli' video doc (noi non siamo come James Bond, with Mario Balsamo) and I discovered a young photograph's website reading the leaflet inside the dvd box. Usually Guido call me for photo shoting about yoga so I was very curious to see his photos from Jim Campbell

Looking at his photo gallery, watching for the film, and Reading more about Leukemia, I discovered inbetween the great activity of Guido a few messages to share with anybody such as "life and emotion come before picture or a motion", or "pratice yoga is better than selfish activities but shoting people while praticing yoga is yoga", and "whenever we have low energy on our mat, at any time we carry on a mental, physical or spiritual disturb just then putting more  counsciousness we start to cure itself".
