Hello fellow cleansers! I am a married homemaker with 2 boys (10 and 18). My educational background is in health and science education, but I have been in the financial services industry for all of my working life up until I "retired" when my youngest child was born. We live in Franklin, Tn (a suburb of Nashville).
I come from a family plagued by obesity. I was a stick thin child, but my mother often told me that she too was thin like me. She would tell me that we (in our family) were all big and that I too would look like her.
For 40 years I ate whatever I wanted to; didn't exercise had 2 children and remained very trim.
Then I noticed that the weight started to creep on. Weight control was at the root of what brought me to HPS -- in a round about way.
My mother was the queen of diets. Through her I witnessed the failure of every one of them, so I knew that dieting was not going to work. I began to exericse and learned that the worst thing to do is to start to diet before spending a few weeks increasing ones metabolism through some form of exercise.
Anyway, I hired a trainer and got into shape. I didn't lose any weight, but my clothes looked better. I still had cellulite and fat pads on my thighs. My trainer started talking about diet, but it wasn't making logical sense. I began researching for myself.
I had this intuition about cleansing/fasting -- not for weight control but for setting causes and conditions to create a better healthier body. In addition, I think this intuition was aided by a series of terrible herniated disc problems. Though the physical healing was aided in a conventionally western way, my own exploration into the problem showed me how negative emotions are stored in the body causing the same energy stagnations that lead to disease.
I found HPS and read every single page on the web site and signed up.
The person I was when I began exercising was quite vain and driven to maintain a healthy appearance. I got it too after one cleanse. I got rid of a lot of cellulite and as I continued a moderate exercise plan (2-3 times per week no more than 1 hr). I have MY best body.
Those are the superficial facts, but my HPS experience has been much more. I am on a journey to follow the balanced path. I realize that only through maintaining balance can I maintain health.
I am very blessed with good physical health and I have been working to protect it with this program. My goals is to continue to find balance in all aspects of my life.
The 7DW has helped rid me of a lot of toxic mental garbage. I am hoping in the future to continue rid myself of this garbage and nurture a vessel capable of learning new ways.
I am extremely grateful to Jos-hua for having the love and committment to maining this program and to all the cleansers who make this program work.
With much love,
Susan_L
