Re: 3.5 days into a Dry/Water-only Cascade Fast
"well, you've become a fasting professional, since you first began.Sounds like you're now approaching it as an Olympic sport--which I think makes sense, given your athletic past, right? (and wasn't it pushing that too hard, that led to the heart issue? Sounds like you are learning to go easier... just a gentle nudge/reminder.)"
Hey there Chiron, thank you for your reply :). Well i made the one mistake accidentally and unknowingly pushing too hard in a run and now i am doing what i can to allow my body to repair itself from this, that which i believe will optimally help to restore my body including my damaged heart to fullness. If i felt this did not include dry fasting, i would never choose to engage this activity. So far i am very happy with the results and believe i am close to being 100% restored. With the 16 hour per day dry fasts, i have chosen to do this believing it to be the best course for my health, much the way you have chosen to water-only fast for 19 hours each day. If i came across as one trying to win some kind of competition, i believe i have very much misrepresented myself :).
"One thing I wanted to ask--hope it's not prying or rude;
have you done any EFT or Ho'oponopono work, say? (both of which involve the miracles of heart-opening/healing through forgiveness, in large part.)"
Thank you for this idea and i have never tried either. The closest i came to EFT was beginning to look at a youtube video, perhaps provided by you. Perhaps at some point i will take a closer look, but for now the tapping actually kind of irritated me just looking at it :).
"wishing you all the best. I'm quite sure you'll become one of the world-class fasters--and a guide to many others.
(so easy with yourself, yeah?)
Always a pleasure to read of your new experiences."
Thanks Chiron :). As far as going easy, i decided to stop this combined fast at 5 days. Have been eating only fruits and veg (and herbal tea with honey and organic miso soup). Might slip back into something since i'm not sure i am completely done this time around but we'll see. Is there any fasting on the horizon for you?
