Fasting is one of the most benefitial things to heal your body. When you stop eating, the body starts to nutrition itself from its own reserves, starting with the old and sick cells, that is the reason why you can heal diseases by fasting. When I changed my diet to heal my body I did my own way of fasting. I started eating only fruits and drinking only springwater for about 5 days. That’s when I lost all kind of food addictions, but it was also from that moment on that I knew I had some. The hardest, of course, was the sugar addiction. After these days of detoxication, I started to nutrition my body only with natural food. Up to now I only eat natural food and you don’t only feel it in your body, you can also taste the difference of the food very much. There are many different varietes and recipes of fasting.
But fasting is not only to strenghten the healthiness of the body, it is also a spiritual act and very benefitting for the mind, as it is an obligation in almost every religion. Fasting makes you get rid of addictions and break old habbits that may harm you. It frees your mind of unnecessary thoughts and actions and brings peace to your soul. You also gain a lot of strengh mentally as you learn how to control yourself and you’ll be very centered during the fast.
