Why is the Universe nudging me to fast?

[onfruitstreet]

I've had an unusual streak of not wanting to eat much for at least the past couple of weeks. I'm not sure what it's all about. I love food. Anyway, I've been eating very little lately. This afternoon my body signaled me that it is well aware that I'm not eating much. (I guess this was just in case I hadn't already noticed.) Upon standing, I'd

Maybe you could just do a juice fast? Or something to make sure you don't get TOTALLY dehydrated and weak? A girl that a lot of my friends knew passed out on one of the hot days last week and fell in a way that her air supply was cut off and she DIED. So I worry about things like that.

I'm not the most logical sort. If you've not noticed. heh I'm putting it off until I feel more ready for such an undertaking.

I've fasted a few times and its a good way to "start over" or cleanse. You can always do a juice fast, so you are still getting some nutrients but its still quite cleansing.

If I do fast, I will likely start with a juice fast.

How long were your fasts? Did you find you felt different afterwards? More energetic? More well in any way?

I did a farm fast when I worked at the farm, I ate only juices made from farm veggies and fruit, I think I did that for 3 days. It was nice, it wasn't that bad at all! After I felt refreshed.

I did a water only fast for 3 days a few time...afterwards I always felt very light and refreshed, hungry of course but after I was very aware of what I was putting into my body. Def. it was more cleansing than the juice.

If you do water though, make sure your activity is very low.
