Currently on my yearly ~30d fast. Day 22 and going strong. Water, electrolytes, good company, sunlight, hobbies. Wonderful

[SisHattie]

Fasting is life. I have healed my skin, omitted high blood pressure, and removed inflammation from my wrist and lower back simply from fasting. I dry fast mostly and sometimes water fast.

"70% of our energy doesn't come from food, but from air, sun, water..." Thank you Sadhguru! I appreciate you so much!

Currently on a 3 day water fast, day 2 & I feel light on my feet. I’m in a euphoric state., spiritual bliss. It seemed like the moment I went on this fast I was on the outside looking in. Becoming more conscious of my actions, habits, & words. I feel like I’m being applauded by the universe, I feel aligned & unbothered, I feel whole & completely connected.

Today is day 16 of my fasting... I want to do 5 more days... feeling very well.. wish me luck:))

[chuvaam]

Fasting changed my life. I've done prolonged water fasting and now only eat 1 meal a day. 🤗❤

[cybilebenedict]

Fasting changed my life! You'll become more connected with the highest and will be able to express the truest version of yourself 🙏

[Elliot-biqe]

Fssting is taught in the Bible thousands of years along with the commandment to keep the Saturday sabbath. These two are very beneficial for the spirit, soul and health. God is real and loves you so he gives us instructions to live good lives.

"On certain days body doesn't ask for food, if you fast on those days, many health issues will be handled, for those who do not have the awareness, ekadashi was fixed for fasting" - Sadhguru 🙏🙏

[jovankakhadra]

I come from a fasting culture for spiritual reasons which happens anyway when fasting. It resets everything. The best thing I ever did.

[leniboxing]

I have fasted for 30 days off/On. On nothing but water and coffee and minerals taken since december of 2019!! I tipped the scale at 400lbs!! Now in may of 2022 I am at 245 lbs!! It's been a long and dwindling road, it hasn't been easy but i cannot say that it cannot be done!! I just entered on the 8th of may 2022 my fasting state again and I'm going for 40 days on my 11th day of pure fasting as I'm writting this today, and going for the final weight loss goal this year!! Cheers to everyone!!Thank you Sadhguru you have so much knowledge to teach and I love all your videos about life!! God bless ya Teach!!

People may not realize this, but they may think, "This is how i am, this is my nature", this is not your nature, this is the way you messed yourself..👌

[thejessallen]

Sadhguru introduced me to the idea of fasting, then of course medical science is backing it up... like much of his other wisdom. we are blessed to be alive during his time.

[andreamarkovac]

Just last week I have completed 5 day water fast. First 2-3 days is hard 4 th day I have Experience a burst of energy! So amazing. Breaking the fast with green smoothie green apples lemon cucumber ginger, it tastes so wonderful especially after 5 days of water only.

[siunipatoson]

You definitely have to get your mind right before fasting. I’ve done a 30 day water fast. And have never been able to repeat this. 2 days max and I tell myself I’m starving. I will get back to the longer fast I know it. But for those proceeding on this journey, may it bring you mental clarity, spiritual healing, and physical strength! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[johneduardoctavianoiv]

I’m on the 27th day of OMAD. I don’t lose weight but my hip size decreased from 38 to 30 inches. 🤣 I’ve got clearer vision, smoother skin, sleep apnea stopped, and energetic while approaching the 24th hour mark of fasting. I’ll keep my OMAD journey for as long as I feel good inside out.

If your reading this you can achieve anything you put your mind too 🙏🏽❤️ - OM namah shiva ya

Ekadashi fasting, intermittent fasting changed my body and relationship with food phenomenally when I look back!
