I know you’ll be asking WHY would you do such a thing, and I will tell you.
This week I challenged myself to a 24 hour “WATER ONLY” Fast, which meant nothing to eat or drink for 24 hours EXCEPT water. 😳. Right! Water only felt scary, however, I felt motivated and determined!
At the 24 hour time, I was feeling hungry, but not fainting from hypoglycemia, so I continued on to my new goal of 36 hrs. That went ok because I kept busy.
So, I set the next goal of 48 hrs. By that time My tummy was hurting, I was anxious to eat, I became a bit irritable, disoriented with some inability to put thoughts and words together while at work, which was interesting.
But I pushed through to next goal of 60 hours of water only fasting. OMG I started getting headaches, disorientation and anxiety, but not hungry. Interesting right!?
I doubted myself at the onset, however, my purpose and intent was “stronger”than my self doubt. So I pushed through, and had I not been working, I could’ve rested and pushed myself to 72 hours.
Why you ask ? I’ve not been feeling well and getting worse over the last few months. And it’s scaring me because I plan to live a full vibrant life till at least 108 years old. ❤️🙏
Fasting gave me the opportunity to reconnect with my SELF, my body, my needs. 💪
Somewhere I had lost mySelf!! 😔
Anyway, my mind kept telling me “you need to eat”, but my stomach was not.
Long story short, 5 days later, I am feeling less pain, more focused and more determined than ever before to heal myself.
Fasting from Netflix helped too. 😊
I will fast regularly now in order to help my body heal itself. 💗

May All Beings Be Healthy!!! 🙏❤️
