“The goal wasn’t to fast, but to accept whatever wisdom it could bring to me.”
(Via Six Days Without Food: Hacking Your Mind to Make Do with Far Less – The Writings of J. D. Bentley.)
I’ve messed around with shorter fasts, usually around about twenty hours. I kind of enjoy the feeling of saying no to food and knowing that I can do it. knowing my mind can beat my body and I’m in control.
