Sheila: 3 day juice cleanse interview

Did you love our last juice  cleanse  interview?  Well,  you're  in  luck  because  we are  featuring another  amazing person...Sheila!  

Here's a quick introduction!

Occupation/hobbies:  I work in Early Intervention Services at Highlands Community Services, which is great because I get to work/play with tiny kiddos, and  when I go home at the end of the day the only person I need to take care of is myself 😊. Hobbies:  YOGA, reading, beekeeping, juicing, singing (when no one is around to hear it), puppy sitting, gardening, eating (I still count this as a hobby, even if it's a necessity.)

Sheila  also teaches  yoga  at Whitetop Yoga!!  Join  her  for  an  incredible class sometime!

Fun Facts about Me:  See above?  I once sang in a choir at the White House for Christmas.  I've never seen the movie Jaws.  I Pedi-cabbed in New Orleans for a season.  I prefer pork roll over bologna (gasp!).  I like eating healthy but will eat pizza any hour of any day.  I geek out on cheese and Harry Potter.  I love naps.

Favorite White Birch Juice:  All of them?  I suppose it depends on the day.  If I'm feeling hungry, I go for a Roots Chakra or Roots and Beets.  If I'm feeling springy, Pink Punch.  Right now, I'm in love with the Sweet Shamrock.  Oh, and I'm currently drinking the Turmeric Tonic after heating it up on the stove (surprisingly warm and tasty!)

And, here  are Sheila's  comments  on  her previous  cleanse  experience & her experience this time! 

This is my second time cleansing.  I did my first one some time last year.  Both times, I've gone with a three day cleanse.  For my first cleanse, I wanted to give my digestive system a break, spring cleaning, and detox.  I was very surprised when I found that I never got hungry through the cleanse.  Sure, I had cravings, but I can't recall my stomach actually rumbling from hunger.  Through the cleanse, I found myself in this sort of middle ground with my energy levels.  I wasn't really tired, it was more I just didn't feel any extra energy or even bursts of energy through the day.  It was more of an even, steady, sustaining energy level - just enough to get me through the day.  I slept like a ROCK though, and that was wonderful.

I decided to cleanse this time for the same reasons.  I am rounding out my third and last day of the cleanse, and have had a very similar experience.  The only main difference between this cleanse and my first cleanse is I am finding it harder to turn down food.  Because my cravings for solids have been much stronger this go around, I decided to honor my body with healthy snacks through the day such as a handful of blueberries or nuts here and there.  This has nourished me enough without making me feel like I've lost the digestive benefits of the cleanse.

All in all I would recommend trying a cleanse in any form for every person.  It could be a one day cleanse, a juice for dinner for a few days cleanse, or whatever.  I've found that through cleansing, the body adjusts it's expectations and it has a clearer understanding of what it really needs instead of what it simply wants.
