Cleanse With Me: Going Raw with Go Raw Life Center

ARE YOU READY TO CLEANSE???

Yesterday was of those days where I had to scrape myself out of bed, clean sand out of my eyes, and turn on my flirtatious side just to play off my raspy, sexy, (had one to many....) 'morning voice'.   It was clear to me that my traveling, evening glass of wine, occasional cocktail, diet, and once a while decaf coffees had gotten it's grip on me.  That's not to say i haven't still been enjoying green juices, raw salads, and other great healing foods, but apparently the scales have tipped in favor of my less than best ways, which are now deeply effecting me.

JOIN ME THIS WEEK FOR A RAW FOOD CLEANSE.

I'm starting my cleanse tomorrow (wednesday), six days, and will document through this blog and Instagram (@meredithgnau) my foods and experience everyday.  Feel free to use the recipes from January's Green Smoothie Challenge (there are 14 days of smoothies to scroll through plus tons of cleanse approved recipes on this blog), or if you live in San Diego you can do the cleanse i'm doing at Go Raw Life Center at Liberty Station in Point Loma.  You can opt for anywhere between a one day cleanse to a 90 day cleanse.  It's incredibly affordable ($26 to $45 a day depending on the plan you choose) and i'm super stoked to have someone else make YUMMY food for me!  When you sign up, make sure to mention "A Grateful Life" so can get a piece of their KILLER decadent, raw cheesecake (no soy, no dairy, no gluten).  

I've opted to do the Original Primary plan ($32.50/day when you commit to 6 days, or $36/day when you do day to day).  With the 6 day cleanse everyday you get:  1 blended smoothie or organic fresh pressed juice, 2 raw salads, 1 gourmet entree, 2 fruit bowls, a snack, a go raw bar, and a dessert or a raw chocolate.  You also get to pick out two bags of raw goodies to snack on through the 6 days, and get a 6 day membership to Point Loma Sports Club.  You can always upgrade/downgrade or sub out some of the foods (sub out an entree for salad, etc).

To enroll in the Go Raw Life Center cleanse either drop into the Go Raw Life Center at 2751 Roosevelt Rd (at Historic Decatur, 91206), Call 619-222-3600, or email Lifecenter@goraw.com
