Default You have uncovered an opportunity for self-development, Steve...

Steve,

First time posting, just joined today.
Please forgive me if this posting doesn't supply something completely new, but here it goes.

I am going to respond to your request for a more objective point of view-- rather than provide you a simple 'yes/no' answer.

Here's the reason why- you are a pioneer and inquisitive spirit.

You're in a position to explore something that has come up as a symptom, which can be delved into and truly understood...It's appeared before, in other experiments-- however, you may not have fully reached into the depths of self-discovery it presented to you.

The exploration I speak of concerns itself with your feeling of disconnection. Most particularly, family-based disconnection. Note your previous response to this feeling, and how it affected your decisions to move away from the activity that brought about the trigger.
But, keep in mind-- that is merely the symptom.

By your own self-stated mission, when a challenge presents itself, you tend to like to delve into it.
Here, my dear sir-- is a challenge worthy of your considerable talents!!

What is the source of these feelings?
What other situations, perhaps in your [distant] past, have also triggered this feeling...
Do you fully understand and choose them?

I would hope that my words, while challenging in themselves- are not confrontational to you-- you have a keen mind and analytical lens....and, from an observers point of view-- I see something that your abilities can do something with...

You have a choice to make- regarding feeling disconnected (perhaps alienated?)--- in the past you, by way of example, addressed the symptom with a change in behavior, wile staying true to the original experiment (eating raw food along side the family)...
However, the opportunity is still there....the opportunity to really know this feeling, understand where it comes from and then choose it in a more powerful way...

I believe this is the deeper level of effect you are seeking from this Juice Feasting experiment...you've moved past your previous levels of knowing-- you're now, again, in unexplored territory...


This is the place where you shine best...

Then decide if you need to continue....
But, know that doing so, will most likely produce even deeper levels than this one..

You've upped your game, with yourself....
Show us what you learn---
It will benefit us all.
