Open, you introduced me to three day fasting a couple of years ago. After a bit of research, I realized the benefit of Intermediate Fasting as well, so I have combined both into my current lifestyle. Most days, I will wake and drink clear water and also a squeezed lemon and water with a porridge breakfast, usually between 10 and 11 am. On a monthly basis, I will water fast for three days drinking lots of clean water and green teas. I recently tried to go for a full five day fast but my body said enough was enough! Maybe I need to work on my will power!

I have found that I am now used to the feeling of hunger and can cope better with it. I think an important part of this process to me at any rate, is to firmly believe that it will benefit me. I know for example that I am regenerating my white blood cells and Immune System (that’s quite helpful to me at the moment!) and the immediate evidence to me is an increase in depth of sleep, energy outage and depth of awareness. (It’s also great to stop the top of the legs sparking when I walk…!).

It is my experience that many medical professionals seem to encourage this routine but medical non professionals often seem to ridicule it, Hmm interesting! I will continue with it. Thank you, Open, for kick starting yet another awesome element of my journey!
