While I still adore the book, and still spend lazy Sundays re-reading my favourite chapters, I now know I don’t need to search for my purpose and happiness in other things, places or people. I can find an ashram in my own kitchen as I prepare h e a l t h y m e a l s t o n o u r i s h m y b o d y. I can find my own wisdom if I sit long and quiet enough to listen to my own heart. I can find foods that make my soul sing through healthy recipes that are made with super foods. I can find love within my own heart, through my yoga and meditation. And most importantly I can find my authentic inner truth through living a holistic life based on self love and nurture. This is why I have created the “Eat, Pray, Love” detox, it’s a detox that will nurture your mind and body. It’s a detox that is not meant to be followed strictly; it’s just a simple guide. Here are the commandments of the detox that you should try and follow: Eat: Love and honor your body through only eating foods that nourish you and make you feel good inside and out. Pray: 20 minutes of meditation and reflection every day. Write down 3 things that you are grateful for. Start the day with a grateful heart by having a morning ritual. ZENSPIRATION.ORG 40
