Topic: Fasting for Well-being

Our relationship to food is often complex, especially with the rapid-changing nature of its production against the context of millions of years of evolution.

Today there is much science around the benefits of different kinds of fasting - from water fasts and juice fasts for detoxing to intermittent fasting weekly.

In many wisdom traditions, there are practices of fasting for enhancing awareness and tuning the mind to spiritual growth.

Observing silence is also a type of fast.
So, fasting is not only from food but anything we might be too dependent upon to thereby attenuate its role so that energy can be harnessed and redirected towards healing, creativity or transformation.

I am happy to share my experiences and to explore together how to safely and joyfully experiment with the right attitude and understanding.
