RE: Tired of Making Poor Decisions? A Framework For Decision Making to Create a Better Life (Step 1: What Do We Have)
was during a 2 week fast
I'm curious as to what that involved. I hope it wasn't just water!
Haha. Actually, it was just water. For 2.5 days I went without water as well... I never intended to fast that long nor go without water that long. I just listened to what my body was truly telling me. It was a powerful 2 weeks, literally changed my entire trajectory in life.
I plan on doing another several week(depending on what my body says) fast at the end of this month commencing on my birthday.
I'll do a greater write up on my experiences with fasting and protocols that I have learned. Breath-work is a massive component in fasting, along with a conducive environment.
Have you ever tried an intentional fast?
Holy Mary and all her angels! I bet with that kind of fast you don't even need psychedelics!
Does playing computer games so addictively that you skip meals count?
Haha, on a lot of levels you can do similar work with fasting as with psychedelics. Different teachers :)
The key to both is intentionality. Skipping meals while gaming (definitely an old pass time) brings some of the physiological benefits of fasting, but not so much the psychological :)
But, 3 days minimum is required for many physiological benefits. So, unless you were gaming for 3 days ;) However, if you were also going without sleep and overworking your mind it could have negated some benefits...
More research required!
