DISQUS

jathre · 11 months ago

And in turn your blog comes at the perfect time for me... having a bad dy, lots of pain, feeling just blech, and thisclose to crawling back in bed. But now I can say yes, its a bad day, but it will pass and look at all that is coming our way. Thanks for sharing the good and bad!

angel cards can be so darn infuriating!!!!!
seriously, I have these times too, when I want to duck out the door and keep running, and running and just.. well, go away.
But we stay and that is the measure of our strength and a sign that the journey we are on is surely smack dab in the middle.
You know: wherever you go, there you are!
Mr. King would be proud of you.
love

Well, Bless your little pea pickin' heart Kris! Life's a "B" at times....I know what you mean to just get outside of yourself and look at something else for a while. I am amazed at how simple that can be at times. Especially if it's something FUNNY!!!!! Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha. I like to watch comedy channel. I don't have HBO, but would have watched the concert last night too. Not bummed right now, but I would have liked to see it. NO WORRIES.... It will make it on to another channel later..... (As always.)
Enjoy your juice fast. A person could go a long time doing that. Glad to see you are doing it with some help from a health practitioner. I'll look forward to hearing how you are at the end of your fast. I know you will be zinging around. I'm not there yet, but am getting more and more motivated to make changes I hadn't done before. My hubby is considering them as well.
Bye for now. You are the essence of pushing through. Go for it!
Debbie

Kris! What can I say? I've actually done #3 (chocolate and wine)....you just keep on keeping on, with that darned determination to make the world a better, greener, healthier place - and thank God for you!! I can't juice feast/fast this Wed 'cause it's "scope day"!! Tubes in places where they should not be =) Tip back a glass of the green stuff for me and I look forward to hearing all about your day!

Kris, you really inspire me. I watched your DVD not long ago and though I still have all these problems in my life, I literally tell people I'm going to be "Kris Carr" now because I won't let myself wallow in them. Your film really spoke to me and it really helped my mom understand how chronic illness feels like, which I had tried to do so many years but failed to convey to her the pain of until recently. I read your blog religiously. Hugs from Hong Kong.

Kris,

You always make me laugh. I was laughing out-loud so hard that my boyfriend said "is she really that funny?" (knowing that I was reading your blog) and proceeded to read off your little list of ten --- though I still was the one laughing my ass off. I also had a dip-down type of week last week but am prepping to start a juice feast myself tomorrow, and am psyched watching my first tray of wheatgrass grow and getting ready to chop it down and juice it up!

Keep moving forward. You're always an inspiration, even on your "uninspired" days :)

I hope we'll get to meet again someday (met you at Kripalu for your Bootcamp this fall!)

Happy Monday,
Carissa

Beth · 11 months ago

RawFitMama · 11 months ago

Kris, NO problem! Im so happy you liked the name. I will eagerly join in feasting on Wednesdays. Can't wait to see your posts! I don't have HBO, but heard the concert was amazing. I had a similar week. My turmors are acting up, my daughter (only 4) has surgery this week...etc. I too got reinspired.

As a LOVER of fitness I am so excited to hear you will be getting your skinny ass :) to the gym!!! Oh yea... go Kris (doing jumping jacks for you over here). There's no stopping you now. Juicing AND getting endorphins from the gym???? Watch out world, Kris is coming ablazing!

What an exciting week to be alive! Honoring MLK today (and being reminded once again of his many powerful messages) and tomorrow OBAMA will light up the world (not that he hasn't been doing this already)! The HBO special was amazing and really hit the idea home that our country is changing, we are uniting more than I've ever witnessed in my life. I am so proud to finally say that the President of the United States is one of my greatest heros.

Casey Lorraine · 11 months ago

Oh man Kris, I completely understand that feeling! Let's buck up to the impatience and make ourselves hot little houses of the virtuous...it will all come in it's good and right time :)

thanks for sharing Kris. Today is a new day of hope, and I woke up early this morning feeling so much better and almost forgetting my journey. This day is so uplifting and gives us all a sense of all the new possibilities our new president will bring. Just looking at all the people in DC gives me goose bumps. I would loved to have been there for this historical day.

Be well and know you are in my thoughts and prayers

Hi Kris, thanks for sharing. You're definitely not alone in the anger/rage department. Friday I had to take my plastic bat and beat the hell out of my bed and yell and scream (per therapist's advice) - I've been experimenting with really trying to be present to my feelings and not resist them, and it seems to really be working. So when I'm mad, I take the bat and hit the pillows. when I'm sad, I let myself cry. I've found it very helpful, just breathing into my tummy & feeling whatever comes up, not resisting it. For whatever my experience is worth, I've found it very liberating and healing.

Michjoy61 · 11 months ago

This week is so inspiring and uplifting, there have been so many times I have been moved to tears. I LOVED the HBO We Are One Inaugural Concert. I was glued to my couch while snuggling with my 6-year old who was in just as much awe as I was. His questions about history, his love for the music and his warm body curled up with mine was more than one mom can take. Talk about healing love. He fell asleep at 8:30 and missed the end, but thank goodness for my beloved DVR so he was able to watch the rest first thing Monday morning. Time to be inspired, run with the energy and go for the gold. xoxo

My inner 14 year old ( brought out thanks to the being currenly immersed in the TWILIGHT series. !) is screaming "Me Too..." to this entire post. What a week you've had! Very similar to mine- oddly- and did you really say HOLY SHITAKE!? No way! I tought I was the only one to use that and think its hilarious...anyway. Thank you for always sharing the great and the awful and everything in between. I too am in a similar place where I am ready to be somewhere the universe is telling me is not quite the correct time to be...and I too had to just change my mind. I literally decided to feel and act differently, to accept where I was and what I could and could not control. I decided to stop being an impatient drama queen (for the moment, anyway!) and just Accept that I am right where I need to be. And to breathe. That simple thing works every time. Keep moving forward, bebe, you are on an amazing journey - thank you for sharing it in a most candid way! And also I have to say, what a happy day it is to be able to say PRESIDENT OBAMA...A friend sent me the best text yesterday :"Im sitting here, crying at the TV! I just want to wrap myself in the American Flag and dump Champagne on my head! Happy Days are here again!" If that doesn't say it...! Have a wonderful, blessed, beautiful day! xo, Michelle

You rock woman....you made me laugh so loud it echoed through the halls of my office building

Kim · 11 months ago

I have been a supporter of yours for quite some time. Have a dear friend with terminal cancer that I've turned on to you. Appreciate that you have not Bush-bashed to the extreme that some have, but have to say that half of America has put this man --- and he is just that, a man and nothing more --- on such a pedestal that he is doomed for failure. The higher you put him, the harder he will fall. We'll see. Clearly it's your blog and you can say what you want. when you invite an open forum, so can others and so I have. Wish you well, but if this country heads towards socialist medical care, then we are all doomed, at least health-wise. One look at Canada and we should all be afraid. Months and months to get an appointment with a doctor????? and the care is so mediocre that the ones with money cross into the US to recieve treatment. A socialist healthcare system will doom the US. I recognize that much of your survival success comes from taking holistic and natural approaches, which I whole-heartedly agree with. But don't discount the benefit of capitalism, which, by the very laws of economics, ensures the success and excellence of all fields, including medicine and education.

Hey,
I was just browsing through blogs to see different formats and stuff because I'm starting one. And I have to say that I love your energy. YOU are a great soul and God is working through you. I know it can be so hard at times, but it's not the outcome that matters, it's what we become through the process. MLK didn't fail because he was killed, he showed us it doesn't matter. Like Christ did.

thank you for being the spiritual leader and inspiration that you are for those who you are reaching. You are serving, helping and you are an angel.

God bless you!

if you ever want to talk meditation or dealing with life and obstacle type things spiritually. it's what i do. no strings, no charge, no nothing, and no hitting on you either. i'm partnered up.

why?
because i like to support positive energy in this world and you are obviously a channel for it. one of the good guys.

oh, and by the way, i'm on a specific path of yoga, (it aint a cult) but you don't ever have to join to meditate deeper than ever and experience the divine mother in your own self. I've also had the blessing of supporting friends with cancer quite a bit. it's a tough road.
but you are helping people and that is beautiful.


aum peace and joy
