Edgar Cayce's Apple Detox: My Experience

"Edgar Cayce (pronounced Kay-Cee, 1877-1945) has been called the "sleeping prophet," the "father of holistic medicine," and the most documented psychic of the 20th century. For more than 40 years of his adult life, Cayce gave psychic "readings" to thousands of seekers while in an unconscious state, diagnosing illnesses and revealing lives lived in the past and prophecies yet to come."

Cayce's Apple Detox Diet. I couldn't find any in-depth personal experiences of this. Challenge accepted. Join me as I take you through my apple cleanse journey.

---

Minimum of 6 apples per day. Drink lots of water to flush of the toxins. Olive Oil to finish it. Sounds simple, right?

My experience was one to remember. Three days of eating nothing but apples and drinking lots of water. I learned a lot about myself. It was a struggle. 

First of all, I do not like raw apples. Actually, Cayce says that raw apples are poison to your body unless you eat them alone. Combining them with other foods will greatly upset your body. I don't fare well with acidic foods: they make me sick. These apples made me feel very ill indeed.

Day 1 wasn't too bad because I was at work. I'm used to not eating much on busy days. Luckily I was on vacation after that. It wasn't bad other than having to eat nothing but apples. The cravings started. I wanted pizza: something fatty, salty, and comforting.

Day 2 was the most difficult. The cravings kicked in hard. I wanted SALT. I kept daydreaming about french fries. I was a little delirious. I peed like crazy too. My energy dropped a lot. I was maddened by my cravings so much that at times I thought I was going to crack.

Day 3 was much easier. I think I was kind of used to it. I went out and did some errands. That distracted me for a good chunk of the day. I also did a lot of spiritual things. It was the easiest day by far. My near pitfall was an image of french fries came out of nowhere to tempt me! My mind has issues!

Finally, on the third night, it was time to drink the olive oil. Completion at last, yes! But first...ew. The first 2 teaspoons were fine, the 3rd almost made me gag. BUT I DID IT! Had I not done it with a few comrades, I'm not sure I would have made it through. We all completed the apple detox together! Success!

Now what you have been waiting for: the results. I peed...a lot. More than ever. My body felt lighter. My appetite decreased. I felt more spiritual and strangely energized. I also lost a few pounds.

I ate exactly 8 apples per day. I couldn't do more than that. But because I was crazed at times, I allowed myself black coffee and tea. It kept me sane. I made sure my coffee and tea were low acidity and drank lots of water afterwards. What also helped me out was distraction. My favourite was watching movies. It makes time fly!

I recommend doing this diet if you are not working or doing much for a few days. It requires rest. Expect your energy to drop. Cayce suggests doing this a few times a year as a "spring cleaning" for the body. Excellent in aiding the removal of accumulated toxins from your vessel.

What was the first thing that I ate after the detox? You can bet your bottom dollar that it included some great homemade fries ;) However, one must note that it is not wise to retox after doing such an extensive detox. I am just weak.

Goddess Provisions Review: June 2016

It's the best time of the month, the Goddess Provisions box reveal! Sorry I'm late, I wanted to try everything before I reported back.

The theme of June's box is "Dream Time Ritual." That alone made me super excited to see what they'd come up with. Everything in the box was meant to help you with your night time ritual.

The first thing that I tried was Anima Mundi Herbals elixir and tea blend. It's kind of like sleepy time tea and that helps you recall your dreams. The elixir is very unique, I hadn't heard of using an elixir in tea until now. My boyfriend and I tried it together. We used David's tea bags to put the loose leaf tea in. We wanted it to be a positive and spiritual experience so we placed crystals around the tea and meditated before drinking it. He had a spiritually uplifting dream that night. I felt drowsy after drinking the tea and fell asleep almost right away, which never happens. I've had some interesting dreams since then but not sure how much of that is because of the tea. We are looking forward to trying it again.

I use the Eagle roll on (from May's box) to energize me during the day, so it's only fitting to use one to help you off to dream land. The Essence of Vali Sleep roll-on fragrance is very calming. I've been dabbing a bit on my wrists before bed. The moment I smell it, I start to relax. 

Bedrock and Bloom's Smart Ash is an all natural teeth detoxifier and whitener using the power of charcoal. When they say "use with caution" they mean it! It gets VERY messy. Thankfully I read their warning and was able to avoid what would've been a tremendous disaster in my sink. I've used it several times and it really does whiten and deep clean your teeth. This product is definitely on my recommendations list.

The crystal of this month is a Spirit Quartz from Africa. Everyone's looks a little different. The one I received has a calming, gentle energy. It's very difficult to look at a Spirit Quartz and not get swept away by its breathtaking sparkle. I keep it by my bedside table with a few other crystals.

Last, but not least, The Ritual Store's Moon Dust Mask. I finally used it last night and was surprised. The ingredients are not only very good for your skin, but also, contain the powers of selenite and moonstone dust. The smell is quite interesting, couldn't figure out why it smelt like a V8 until I saw that there's carrot powder in it! My face has been very oily lately, I think due to using more SPF these days. This mask sucked it all out and feels so soft and supple now. Another recommendation worthy product.

Overall, I really like this Dream Time Ritual box. A lot of cool, out of the box concepts. Who would've thought I would brush my teeth with charcoal and love it? I love expanding my mind and learning new things. I'm still waiting for the July box, which is all about the Solar Plexus Chakra.

What is essential in your night time routine? What helps you drift off to dream land?

Goddess Provisions Review: March 2016

This month's theme is "Self-Awakening" and is focused around the crown chakra. I love the colour purple and was pleased to see the beautiful pops of colour, especially since spring has sprung.

It was surprise to see which of the four   Chakra Love  talismans you would get. I received Smoky Quartz. I was hoping for Lapis Lazuli but realized I needed to be more grounded so I'm happy to have gotten what I needed. 

This blank Your Joyologist journal is beautiful. The idea is to express all the good or bad to help with your spiritual growth. I've always wanted a gratitude journal. Before bed each night, I'll be writing down at least one thing I'm grateful for.




This month's treat was from from Nicobella Organics. This Omega Munch was rich and delicious. Plus there's a percentage of all their sales that go to animal charities.

Aroma therapy is always welcome in my home. These Purple Frog Patches smell so refreshing and invigorating. They're individual fabric stickers that you squish and stick that diffuse the essential oil blend. Once I clear off my desk, I'll be happily using them.

Last but not least is this House Blessing & Cleansing Herb Kit from House of Good Juju. It's everything you need to clear the energies of your home. There are herbs, flowers, Palo Santo Wood, Black Tourmaline, and Clear Quartz (just to name a few) of all the goodness in this little tin. There's a detailed information card explaining why each item was included and how to clear your home or space with this kit.

Overall, this is the most interesting box I've received from Goddess Provisions. I really look forward to working with my crown chakra and clearing all that no longer serves me. When you want to progress in life, sometimes you need to let go of the extra baggage slowing you down. Sometimes that could be literal things, relationships, or even thoughts.

Wishing you all the strength to do all that you need to do so you can get where you need to be.
