Hi Lynne...

 

for a 24 hr. fast, I'd suggest the following:

 

preparation: at least 2-3 days of a good, high raw food diet

preferably

fresh, organic, high-alkaline, juicy fruits.) Finish off the last

night before the fast with an early dinner, say 6pm ish....consisting

of maybe some light redleaf lettuce, some celery and maybe a little

cucumber.... drink some good water about 8:30pm, and then to bed by

10pm : sleep...

 

fasting day: drink plenty of good, pure distilled water (blessed or

sunshine-reenergized), whenever hungry/thirsty throughout the day.

Primary need: rest...drinking water will rest the digestive

systems, and allow the body to focus energy elsewhere. Start the day

off with a nice drybrush skin scrubbing.

Get plenty of fresh air, and sunshine. Expose as much of the body

as possible to the sun, ensuring that the " solar plexus " chakra

(roughly abdomen area) gets sun. Avoid physical exertion. Rest as

many body systems as possible. Avoid emotional upsets/worries.

Think positive thoughts. go to bed early...maybe get a nap.

 

breaking the fast: suggest breaking it the morning after with 1/4 -

1/2 of an orange, or maybe half of an apple. Or a smoothie, made of

1 stalk celery, 2 dates, and 1/2 small banana with lots (16 oz. or

more) of water.

 

continue drinking good water throughout the day.

 

Lunch, if needed - repeat smoothie..

mid-afternoon - other half of orange or apple

dinner: tiny salad...no avocado/oils., with a squeeze of lemon juice

(or 1/8 of a lemon...)

 

rest more...to bed early...

 

Have fun...this is not precise...it doesn't have to be...

 

Hope this helps.

 

regards,

 

Bob
