Guest guest Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 This may sound strange but has anyone else noticed an increased sensitivity to colors during a fast? I once went to a Cowboy game (of all places...ugh) during a fast and was over loaded by all the colors. I found it very interesting. As strange as it may seem to some folks I suspect that our bodies miss the color intake as well... TimDavid <dlaws wrote: I know! When I first fasted, I'd think about food all the time and look thru magazines for pictures of food. Mmmmmm... And of course, when I'm fasting is when I realize just how many food commercials are on TV. There everywhere! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 I've had similar things happen. For me it was ALL my senses were on overload. I try to stay low and slow during a fast. Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 I haven't noticed the color thing, (perhaps I haven't fasted long enough), but I remember during my first weeklong fast I took my boys to an Oakland A's game and they bought some garlic fries and teased me with them. It was terrible. ;^D David , Tim Campbell <timcall@s...> wrote: > This may sound strange but has anyone else noticed an increased sensitivity to colors during a fast?

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 Hi Tim, I experience the same thing and not only with color but all of my senses become magnified. I think the smells of things are the most overwhelming because I notice so much more than I normally do. Because of that I can't go into grocery stores or hospitals and no where near bathrooms that are not my own.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 I agree Nakota...I find, during a fast, I can't go into an ordinary grocery store but I can handle Whole Foods...it's not as toxic I suppose.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 I guess you never can tell about something until you go on a fast. Let's hope health inspectors never start fasting...lol.
