Give it to me Raw

Hey ya'll, I practice Bikram Yoga while being 90-100% raw. When practicing my concentration is so much deeper and I am able to give 110% majority of the time.

Just want to know who else practices BK. What are your experiences? Do you have any specific foods that you eat before class or after class?

Nancy what do you use to replenish your electrolytes?

I did Bikram for three years. Mostly, seven days a week, did doubles, 28- day challenges, two of them. Added bulk muscle. To me, it's like raw foods, doesn't matter what anyone thinks, or the "scientific" evidence they present to dissuade you. If you get results......it's what matters.

Keep asking questions, I did, like about replenishing electrolytes. In fact, every teacher I had, I spent hours and hours grilling, even did a week-end with the B and his wife. Love.

Ashwin,
I make sure to be hydrated before class and then Zico or other coconut water after. Some time after I'm usually in the mood for an apple.

it was not easy for me to get straight answers (still isn't) regarding hydration (or anything else!! - you shoulda heard me on the horn this morning) - teachers didn't want to go on record, or be held responsible, so do your own "due diligence" as they say. some recommended "Ener-C" or whatever those popular powder packets from whole foods, some teachers drank GATORADE!!

i did enjoy seeing the results of doing the same exercises, basically, every day. i say basically, cuz you do them a "little" differently each time, based on your consciousness, and then, based on the CHANGES in you.

i stopped cuz the teachers wouldn't leave me alone.

Yeah it is strange that some times I feel really great after class and sometimes just average. One factor is the consciousness of it like you said. Yogabrudder, did you feel the same way? ie not the same every class.

What do you mean -"the teachers wouldn't leave me alone?" :-)

Thanks Loren. Makes sense to me. My problem is that when I blend (which means more volume of fruits) then i am more regular with my bowels. What I can eat & chew doesn't always trigger peristalsis in the same way. I had chemo a few years back and ...

I don't know. But a chiropractic subluxation means that you either have too little or too much electricity flowing to your organs. Too little means your temperature will be below 37 degrees. And you probably lack energy and may have chronic dise...
