Day 1: New Challenge

So I set down the whole "challenge" thing for a week.  And boy, did I feel a decline in my vibration!  But the good thing is, it got so intolerable to be lower than where I had been only a week ago, that I found it in me to re-commit to a brand new, vibration-raising, 30 Day Challenge!

In the morning: 5 minutes of raving, followed by 10 minutes of non-habitual movement, followed by 10 minutes of pleasure-breathing and body-feeling meditation.  These times are longer than the ones I did this morning, because I decided I wanted to have more raving and more pleasure-breathing time.  But today I did 3 minutes of raving and 7 minutes of breathing (so it was a 20 minute practice altogether).  Tomorrow I'll be doing the longer times, but I'll still count this as Day 1.  I'm also going to end each day with a 15 minute rave and a typed-out re-cap of all the awesomeness in my day!

So!  Things today that were great!  Waking up early (even earlier than my early alarm!) and taking Ollie outside while drinking a nice big jar of fresh clean water, doing my morning practice (it was nice to move my body and wake it up like that!), eating breakfast (granola with peanut butter and Rockin' Wellness mixed in, topped with some almond milk!  YUM!  Reminded me of Reese's Puffs!), getting ready for work and walking there with mah snazzy shades on in the beautiful spring sunshine, gentle clouds of breath preceding me, listening to "Happy" on the way and feeling uplifted, feeling the springtime breathing the Earth alive (EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!), getting to work a good 20 minutes early and easing my way into my work day, slicing meat and listening to Die Antwoord, having a pretty busy morning, snagging up an entire freshly baked croissant that someone had meant to take home but forgot at their table (OMG, topped with melted chocolate!  ORGASM!), eating said croissant with chocolatey goodness while writing the specials on the boards (I love doing that task!  I really enjoy my handwriting!), doing the best I could and making my way through the day, having kind and generous customers (Made $123 in tips today!  And I just noticed that alignment of numbers!  Sweet!), getting a hug from my friend, eating a delicious Caesar Plate (one of my favorite things on our menu.... a stack of sourdough, mayo, lettuce, tomato, local smoked ham, asiago, and a fried egg, with our house-made Caesar vinaigrette!  So simple yet SO GOOD!), getting to eat the last tiramisu (we were meant to share it, but nobody seemed to be interested, so I got to eat like 3/4 of it!  I'M NOT COMPLAINING!!), listening to the Gorillaz while cleaning up, feeling my feelings the best I could, walking home, doing a little bit of raving when I got home so I could tip the nose up, taking a tiny nap, heading over to the bank to get my taxes filed for free (SO THANKFUL for this wonderful service they provide each year!  I found out I'll be receiving a total of $808 from my return!  FUCKING AWESOME!), walking home and listening to the Presence make poop jokes in the back of my awareness while I frustratedly plunged the shit out of my toilet (haha, see?  Puns are so great), giving up and going outside to tell my neighbor (and handyman) that my toilet wouldn't flush, his friend hi-tailing it into my apartment to fix the situation, now having a toilet that flushes perfectly (yay!  Men are great!), washing my hands repeatedly with the amazing new sage-scented soap I got by Pre de Provence (AMAZING soaps and lotions.  I'm a HUGE FAN), coating my skin with their amazing "Luxe Butter" lotion (French Lavender is the most orgasmic scent of all time), walking down to the soul food restaurant down the block from me and ordering a bowl of their amazing Corn and Crab Chowder (my favorite!), wolfing down my chowder and cornbread (so good... buttered with delicious whipped sweet cream butter), heading home and browsing sex toys online, jerking off in the shower, more Luxe Butter, lying down about to go to sleep but deciding that I needed to finish my commitment (nighttime rave and re-cap!  Gotta happen!), raving for 15 minutes and instantly feeling my vibration raising as I noted all the amazing things I have and that have manifested recently and that are manifesting right in front of my eyes (!!!), eating some leftover quinoa and brown rice with red beans and a fried egg and some kim chee (yum, good combo!  I love kim chee), brushing and flossing my awesome teeth, more Luxe Butter (god I love this stuff, I'm so glad I bought it!), sitting down to write this and feeling satisfied that I have kept a vibration-raising commitment to myself.  Looking forward to drifting off to sleep while listening to Donna's soothing voice coaching my sweet past self!

I love feeling the instant relief of tipping the nose up!  I am so happily addicted to raving!  I was really going through some withdrawals there for a minute!  ;)  Such a good thing to practice regularly, and I'm glad I'm now taking it to a new level by adding in some non-habitual movement and pleasure-breathing/ body-feeling meditation upon first awakening (I'm deciding that that's a rule of the challenge:  Aside from peeing, drinking water, and letting Ollie out, the 25 minute morning practice must be done first thing upon awakening!).

THANK YOU UNIVERSE/GOD/LARGE SELF/ME!

Love,
Adrienne
