Hi everyone
Well I finally have got to the point of introducing myself to you all, and getting ready for my first cleanse. Let me tell you a little about myself, Originally I'm from Toronto, Canada but moved to Tampa Florida when I was ten. I live in Atlanta Ga, I'm an aircraft engine inspector with a major airline which I have been working at for the last thirteen years (except for a two year layoff about ten years ago) Prior to this I was in the U.S Army for six years where I was stationed in the States for three years, Korea for two years and finished up my military career over in Saudi and Iraq in the Gulf war.
I love to travel and have been to alot of places around the world. I had the chance to live in Southern Thailand for half a year working as a Scuba diving Instructor and that time was probably the most happy and heathy in my life. I have also spent time in Singapore and Malaysia, Belize, Mexico, UK, Poland and Ukraine.
I have tried to live a fairly heathy life, I dont smoke or have a weight problem. Other than some sinus problems and a couple of kidney stones I had been doing OK. I have my mother to thank for showing me at an early age the value of eating good things and taking care of yourself ( she was a heath food nut and always doing yoga, etc.) I did'nt always do the right things heath wise but at least I knew better. I would say my path here to HPS began about eight years ago, I stumbled on to Daniel Reid's book " The Tao of heath, sex and longevity" which really intrigued me although when I first read it I thought the part about the colon cleansing was pretty far out there, funny how your attitudes and perspective can change.
My life took a turn for the worse two and a half years ago. My wife wanted to get divorced and at the same time I went from a pretty active job as an Engine mechanic to a pretty sedentary job as an inspector. The combination of stress, depression, eating lousy and sitting at a desk all day and then not exercising really started to take its toll on me. I was having alot of stomach problems and basically in the worst heath and frame of mind that I had ever been in. I have really been trying to change some things in my life so that I can start feeling better. I have cut out almost all sweets and sugar now for over a year, I dont drink any kind of soda or coffee, I also stopped drinking milk and I am trying to cut down on the cheese, I've been skipping the steaks and burgers and eating alot more fish and chicken and vegetables. I am ready to take the next step and start cleaning out all the crap inside of me physically and mentally . I plan on starting my formal on March 25th.
I am glad that I found this place and I hope that I can contribute to this group. I really trust the system that Joshau has set up and I look forward to the journey
Peace
your new cleansing amigo
