the reward

So I've been blogging on my myspace page about the 7 day cleanse Amanda, my roommate, and I did.

Well, tonight, we had our reward. Massages at
International Orange. Incredible. I cannot say enough good stuff about this spa. It was not cheap, but I felt like royalty. First we steamed, then showered and waiting in the lounge area. This is where there's a never ending supply of water and tea, plus little treats like dried cranberries, almonds, chunks of dark chocolate and ginger chews. After the massage we steamed and showered again. I am still on a high from it while I'm writing this. The world has slowed down. I just feel great. It was the perfect reward since it actually compliments the cleanse very well in getting the toxins out of your body.

Not only that, I feel like I had an affair! His name was Iyla. This was my first male masseuse ever and he completely rocked. We talked about the cleanse and eating healthy for the first half. He told me about roasted barley tea and how it's caffeine free and has a similar taste to coffee. It was nice and relaxing and made it more comfortable.

I'm pretty sure this is the feeling I've been waiting for throughout this whole cleanse. I just feel good and healthy and whole.
