Hello everyone Today is my first day back fasting! I fasted for 19 days ending two weeks ago, and it was beautiful but I didn't stretch or meditate or focus my attention on spritual things. So when a emotional event happened in my home I ran to food and went off the deep end. I couldn't really digest any of the food I stuffed in me so I became sick and keept throwing up. It was a tramatic experience and it brought me alot of emotional and physical pain. Now I back but, I'm finding it hard to get motivated as I was before; so I hope you all have some helpful tips and words of encouragement. Even though my former fast wasn't done very well I still felt as if I were discovering something, I was feeling all together better. I have alot of chronic physical and emotional pain a girl of 26 shouldn't have and I feel that fasting will get me to a better state of spritual, emotional and physical equillibrium so that I can take charge of this beautiful life I have been given.(pardon for writing so much)=)
