Day two of my detox / cleanse week

Well, things started out well. I woke up on Thursday morning with a very happy, relaxed feeling. Nice preview, but of course the detox hadn’t really started. Friday morning too: I woke up relaxed and happy. I’d gone to bed early – a by effect of the lack of tea perhaps? And the result was that I felt very much rested.

However, as I write this, it’s 19.30 / 7.30  Friday night and I’ve had a headache for several hours now. I guess I am having withdrawal symptoms. Tea contains caffeine, so drinking it is as problematic as drinking coffee, though the dosage is less.

  1. Dear Katinka,

    Why do you want to detox from tea? Even AB drank tea! From everything you have posted it looks like you are living a clean and sober life with an emphasis on pure thoughts and actions. Is this a form of spiritual discipline beyond being health related?
    Alternate hypothesis: Do you fear not being able to find tea when you undertake your pilgrimage to India?? fyi, They got plenty tea there!!
    More important to live a vegetarian lifestyle, refraining from involvement in abuse and murder of our inoffensive animal friends who trust us. Eating their corpses after we murder them is repellent to me. I haven’t eaten meat in >25 yrs. Still drink coffee; no guilt. ;-{)>

    1. It’s not about guilt. It’s about the effect of tea (which contains caffeine) on my system. It just makes me more stressed than I already am.

      I know they drink tea in India 🙂 Chai, to be precise, if I’m not mistaken.
