If you are a beginner at fasting and would like an introduction then please read this article: 'How to conduct a short fast at home' by Dr Keki Sidhwa' & 'The benefits of fasting' by Dr Gina Shaw. There is also a plethora of information on the site forum and for the seasoned fasters check out The Fast Docotor's invaluable 5 Step Ellimination Cycles to help with the release of toxins during a fast.
Editor's note: For all of you who are drawn to the fasting experience, allow me to share some insights with you before you journey through this site. Over the months of involvement with Fasting Connection and various Group Fast gatherings, I have come to realize that very few people who set out to do a fast actually see it through to the very end. Yes, that includes myself. For example, if I plan on doing a 10 day water fast, I might end it on day 2, day 3, or perhaps not even start it at all! I am indeed perplexed as to why there is often such a gap between the fast at the 'ideal' plan stage and the actual realization of the fast. It is as if the conscious rational mind and the unconscious irrational mind are anything but partners in the deal. Is it necessary to resort to advanced psychotherapy or hypnosis to get both parties to sit down and agree, or is there another solution? I believe there are several solutions to ensure greater success with our fasting aspirations which are: Visit a fasting retreat. We have a list of 140+ retreats listed on the site. There must be at least one which can cater to your needs. Don't forget to use the search filter to save time. Yes, retreats cost money. However, an optimum supportive environment gives you a much greater chance to achieve your objectives. Come out of the woodwork and share your fast with us by blogging on our blog page. You can also connect with a fasting partner which makes the fast more purposeful and get invaluable feedback from experienced members. By joining us you will increase your chances to see a fast through to completion especially if you are surrounded by people who don't understand or appreciate the power of fasting. Allow me to direct you to a brilliant article entitled: Self-mastery through Attentive Eating. I find it is one of the best methods to bridge the mind/heart/body gap I’ve mentioned above. The practice of Attentive Eating reeducates the system to be more grounded and better equipped to manage a fast. It is no surprise that Dr. Stanley Bass wrote this article after 50 years of research. In addition, after 20 years of working with obese people, Paul McKenna wrote a widely successful book on the same principle entitled: I Can Make You Slim, intended to help people lose weight. And for people who have enough will power the practice of weekly short fasts or intermittent fasting works wonders.
One final note, I do not advocate fasting as the correct practice for people who wish to lose weight as a primary objective. I see Attentive Eating or Intermittent Fasting as the best possible solution. We also don't encourage unsupervised long fasts which we have coined 'epic' fasts on this site, as they can be dangereous if one does not have the correct professional supervision. If you suffer from chronic temptation and fail to complete a fast because of it then check out Dr Stanely Bass' article: How To Overcome Temptation Instantaneously. And if you scout around the site you will find other tips on how to control hunger and temptation such as drinking carbonated water etc.
