Altair's fasting experiment
I will gradually experiment with water fasts in the coming weeks/months. I did a 2 day water fast recently. I combined the fast with meditation and breathing exercises.
Results:
- An odd feeling in the stomach area after 3/4 of a day, which increases over time.
- Sleeping in irregular patterns.
- Odd cravings for things I rarely eat; chocolate biscuits and certain vegetables.
- Yoga asanas not as effective.
- Breathing exercises much more effective.
- Mental peace, and clarity. I already gained insights end of the first day. They just came.
The feeling in the stomach is kind of hard to get used to if you focus upon it. Next time I may do 3 days, and I'm also thinking of doing one standard day of fasting a week. The last described result alone has definitely showed me the benefit of fasting. I'll have to find a delicate balance also because I don't want to lose too much weight after a fast or get skinny.
I didn't really crave for food overall. I started eating again this morning, with some fruits first, then soup and bread with baked vegetables later on.
