Hi Everyone! I'm so excited to be a Master Faster. It feels like such an accomplishment.
Anyway, it has not been very long since my last cleanse, about a month. I have decided to do this cleanse for a few reasons. One, I have just about 12lbs more to lose. I have lost about 40lbs over this past year since I started with HPS. I'm going on vacation soon and will be wearing a bikini and I want to look and feel great.
The second reason I am doing this cleanse is because I still have lots of work to do on my body. While I have come a long way in a year, 4 cleanses, I am still struggling with my face breaking out. As a teenager my skin was perfect. Over the past few years my skin has gotten worse and worse. I would get a little relief right after my cleanses, but it would just come back. I tried lots of different cleansers and nothing has helped much. So, I have come to the conclusion that something on the inside is the problem, not topical cleansers or make-up or anything external. I just know I have more toxins to release as well as emotions. My game plan is to do this cleanse and then start doing L3 stuff. For example liver flushes.
I did not have that great of an experience with my liver flush because I could not keep down the salt and water. I did some research and was told that I could put the salt into capsules and take it that way. So, I will try this after my cleanse. I am also going to get on some liver herbs to help detox and strengthen my liver. I have heard that my skin should clear right up after a few liver flushes, so I am praying that this is true.
This process is so amazing. I am learning and growing each day. The knowledge I have gained is invaluable and I wouldn't trade it for anything. My newest insight is that no matter what topical cleansers I used. Whether it was harsh chemicals or all-natural and organic, it didn't matter. My skin will never be clear unless I take responsibility and cleanse my body. This will save me lots of money and frustration and this is just a blessing in disguise because my liver and other organs are obviously under stress and having problems. This is just my body's way of telling me, HELP!
So, this is just another chapter in my journey to ultimate health and I am one more step closer.

Kristin,
You are an inspiration. You've been very busy & what a great testimonial. I'm on my level 2, but it took me two years before I could work it into my schedule.
I'm looking forward to following your cleanse & results!

Kristin,
Don't put anything on your face you wouldn't eat. The face reflects the health of your organs, so you might want to focus on getting everything into balance. Do you have a TCM doctor and have you had your pulses read?

Hi Louise. I agree with you. I use an organic all-natural cleanser. I checked each ingredient and they are all good. There are many out there that say they are all-natural, but they are far from it. Anyway, I have come to the conclusion that, yes, it is my organs that need the help.
Thanks for your concern. I really appreciate it!

Hi Kristiin--it has been great to see your post at my little home and I thank you for your love and care. It is wonderful to see you as a Master Faster and you certainly deserve it!! :):)
I love your attitude and know that this cleanse will be a great one for you - but yes, it is another step isn't it??? Now that you are here don't you just see yourself cleansing every few months for the rest of your life. My body and mind love the week I dedicate to "special care for it"
All the best on your cleanse and we'll keep in touch.
much love, Maz

Hi Kristin, this is wonderful! Your experience is fascinating and encouraging... makes me want to get going even sooner. All the comments so far make me think "that's right, beauty comes from within" and hope that your continued cleansing just astonishes you with the clarity of your skin.
Best wishes from one who is barely starting -

Hi Kristin,
WOW! I am soo inspired by your thread. Ohh that is wonderful. I too am having the acne issue for the past year! Its been very weird so I feel your frustration. I too agree with you that it may be something inside of your system. I know mine is related to my periods being awful and the amount of fluid built up in my body from years of birth control.
I am soo happy for you! This is just great. I am not sure if I can log in to the master faster section to view your progress but if I can, I WILL!. This is really neat. I will try to go back to your past threads to see why you started in the first place. But it just might be easier if I ask you... what was your breaking point before deciding to cleanse?
I think you have come so far and the sky is the limit for you! I wish you lots of success with your upcoming cleanse and I look forward to reading your results.
Love,
Courtney

Whew, a Master Faster at age 25. You are experienced beyond your years... Best of luck dealing with that long-standing issue.
I have to say, it's inspiring to read of the master fasters like you and Louise working towards the accomplishment of some new health goal. Keeps the rest of us realistic, too.

Thanks for all your replies, they mean so much to me!
Courtney, to answer your question on why I began cleansing... Nothing particularly happened to me. I was just on the internet and came across the HPS site and it all made perfect sense to me. I have always been interested in health and beauty and at the time owned a wellness spa. I wanted to get healthy and also help my clients do the same, by being knowledgeable and able to answer questions.
Needless to say, after the first cleanse I was hooked! It's the best program ever!

Kristin,
Yes, yes, yes!! Go, go, go! It is so helpful to hear a Master Faster talk about continuing on their health path. It re-emphasizes that we are on a journey and have (in your case) the tools needed to carry on. What would our options be without the knowledge gained here?? Not very darn attractive, that's for sure.
The organs, the organs, the organs. I am just gaining consciousness of the organs beyond the elementary human body info we all learned in grade school. So fascinating to experience the change in thinking and attitude about our bodies from something we just take for granted and expect to function to a friend, actually many friends, that carry us through life on the planet and whom we should show respect and care for, just as we do other friends and family we love. What a neat change of thinking in my book.
Love your liver!!!!! Come to it's aid. It needs you :)
Enjoy your cleanse and while on the board visualize all the toxins in your system being released from the tissues and cells they've been camping out in! Bid them farewell and mentally watch them disappear over the horizon as they leave. The mind/body connection. Another awesome truth of our design!
Enjoy your vacation. Thanks for all your support during my Level 1 cleanse and learning curve. I really appreciated it.
