Photo Diary: Oscar's Juice Cleanse

Hello, friends! We've been having a magically transformative week here in The Hive. It's been such an adventure and I can't wait to share every detail with you! A few weeks ago Oscar mentioned wanting to do a juice cleanse and it struck up a conversation about the recent popularity surrounding juicing, fasting, cleansing, and so on. We started talking about the importance of a person's intention behind physical cleanses, as it relates to such deep emotional, mental, and spiritual issues as well. Because of this, Oscar didn't want to do just any juice cleanse, so I sat down and started doing research to create our own. I decided to create a seven day cleanse that would focus on a different main body system each day. It was such a fun experience to learn and create, and the results were seriously magical!

Food is a beautiful gift from the earth that has been distorted and abused in so many ways, to the point where most of us are numb to how largely our choices surrounding food affect our beings. Oscar and I are making so many decisions regarding how we will raise Luna and build a family, and this cleanse really got us talking about what it would look like to honor food and the choices we make surrounding our approach to it. We had originally planned to do a full report on the cleanse, recipes included, and post it here on the blog, but we have SO MUCH to share, there is no possible way to condense it down to a blog post or two. That being said, we're very excited to announce that I am actually working on a hand-drawn/illustrated guide to the cleanse that will be available through our blog in a few weeks. We still want the information to be accessible to everyone, so the book will be made available by donation.

We believe in our collective ability to transform this world through how we approach our basic necessities! Can't wait to share more with you, friends. In the meantime, enjoy our photos from this past week, and make it a beautiful Wednesday!

    1. The recipes will all be available in the little book we're making, which will be available by donation or free for those who can't afford to donate! I will probably be posting a recipe or two on the blog for those who aren't interested in the full book, but we really think it's important to have an understanding of the entire cleanse and the purpose behind each recipe! Thanks for asking. :)
