fasting = fabulous!

[Guest guest]

Fasting is really great, if you can do it. Some people just can't, they don't

have the physical or emotional ability to go without food for a long period of

time, which is understandable.

 

I fast usually one day a week, and at times I'll go longer, (longest was four

days, but after passing out twice in one day, I had to go off it). My reasons

for doing it are...umm...different than most people's, not something I'd want to

get far into, but it truly is wonderful. You feel so light and airy, and you're

giving your body a chance to " clean house " , as it were...

 

Just make sure to drink a lot of water, and I even have hot tea, diet soda...any

drink as long as it has no sugar or calories...

If I may ask, why and when (how often) do you choose to fast?

Do you do it for detox or health-type purposes?

I ask b/c I have heard about the practice from some

before, but am interested in it from the POV

of someone who actually does fasting.

Aside from the religious or shamanistic aspects of

fasting, I know very little about the benefits.

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass

under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur

of the water, or watching the clouds float across the

sky, is by no means a waste of time.

i fast every september 13 or when i feel like i need 2,

but u have be careful, i was taught by a brother and

he told me the first time u do, drink plenty of water

and juice, on the 13th of september i don't eat or

drink all day and when nightfall comes then i say

a prayer giving Jah thanks and praises 4 help me

through this and then i eat. fasting is a spiritual

cleansing and that my reason y i fast, everyone in

here have a different reason 4 fasting, but my own

reason is spiritual.
