Day 1 of our Renewal Anytime Detox, wish me luck ;-)

You will have noticed over the last couple of weeks we have been hosting Lisa Consiglio's Renewal "Anytime" 10 day detox book, I read this while we were on holiday and had planned to start it last weekend but due to illness had to postpone and now we're finally here on Day 1.

Both hubbie and I are starting the detox today, I will admit I am a little nervous but really excited at the same time. Lisa's approach and experienced guidance in the book really does fill you with confidence. She advices you to journal your thoughts during the detox, don't worry I won't be doing this every day but it will work as my motivation. I have wanted to do a 'REAL' detox for a long time now, you know the dream one of going somewhere hot with professionals pampering to your every needs just like the tv programme, well that's dreamland so I guess we will have to go with reality!

We set off on Saturday to do our shop for Days 1-5, starting off at Holland & Barrett for as much of the natural organic produce as we could find as well as the vitamins that Lisa recommends using whilst on the detox. I am determined that if I am going to do this then I am going to do it fully or not at all to get the maximum result (hopefully). Next stop was the supermarket for everything else on the list, including the body brush for daily dry brushing, yes it's not all about food on this detox. Now everything is bought there is no backing away from the commitment, fingers crossed all goes well!!

On the menu today....

Day One

Breakfast: Sun + Shine Smoothie

Mid-Morning Snack: 1 apple with 1 Tbsp. raw almond butter

Lunch: Watercress Salad

Mid-Afternoon Snack: carrot, zucchini, and red pepper slices with Spinach Dip

Dinner: Lucky Soup

Best of luck with the detox--I wish I could try it but it is really not diabetic friendly!

Good luck with your detox! I've never done one before; however, I did change my eating style at the beginning of the summer and lost 23 lbs.

My Book Vow

I will continue to treasure my books every day

To admire them all on display

There gilted titling on colourful covers and spines

There beautiful designs that seem to come to life

To cherish my most precious book

To hold it in my hands and connect to the story and characters

Escaping into another world as

You gently turn each page

Feeling the books own unique history

The smell of the old pages and print

Books are our history, present and our future

Without them the world would be a very sad place indeed

by Sharon Martin

Our Favourite Book Quote

We were reading a book the other day and laughed out loud when we realised we could of been reading about ourselves or any other bookseller for that matter, we thought you might enjoy the little snippet....

However dull and dingy the shop may have appeared in the eyes of most people, to one person it was the most delightful spot on earth, and that person was none other than the owner of this collection of literature, some of which was remarkable for its antiquity if nothing else.

Bartholomew Stranges whole world was in his shop, beyond it he had no ambition, no affection, no desires. He loved his books simply for their own sakes, not for what he got by them, indeed it cost him such a pang to part with them, that if it had not been a necessity he would have refused to do so. Often if anyone wished to purchase a favourite book he would put a large price on it so as to keep it in his own possession, and be willing to wear the scantiest clothes, and live on the plainest food, if by this means he could keep his precious treasures.....

From Beckie's Mission or Mr Bartholomew's Little Girl by L Marston, published by John F Shaw & Co, circa 1919
