As I embark on a Kundalini Yoga enspired, Vegan, high alkaline, week-long cleanse I am reminded of the words of Jesus:

And when you fast, don’t make it obvious, as the hypocrites do, for they try to look miserable and disheveled so people will admire them for their fasting.

Smile, be grateful for this opportunity, and take deep breathes instead of snack breaks.
