Key Points:
Fasting and Detoxification:
* When the digestive system is empty (especially after colonics or herbal cleansing), the body enters a heightened state of healing.
* Most people always have food in their stomachs, which prevents deep detoxification.
* Fasting is not about starvation but about cleansing, rejuvenation, and cellular revitalization.
* The body often suffers more from toxic overload than from lack of food.
Fasting and Energy:
* Despite common belief, energy levels often increase during fasting rather than decrease.
* Long-term fasting (e.g., 28 days) can lead to surprising effects, such as maintaining or even gaining weight despite low food intake.
* Science often contradicts personal fasting experiences, but direct experience is the most reliable guide.
* Even short fasting periods (e.g., 18 hours) teach the body new ways to function optimally.
The Three-Week Cleansing Plan:
* Week 1 (Starting May 8, 2025): Gradual calorie reduction, transitioning to one solid meal per day with the rest being liquids.
* Week 2 (Starting May 15, 2025): Moving to an all-liquid diet, further reducing calorie intake.
* Week 3 (Starting May 22, 2025): Potential full-day fasting trials, culminating in deeper detoxification.
Autophagy & Cellular Rejuvenation:
* Fasting allows the body to break down waste, reduce inflammation, and restore youthful vitality.
* Regular cleansing helps prevent chronic inflammation and degenerative conditions.
Spiritual & Mental Benefits of Fasting:
* Heightened sensory perception, increased mental clarity, and even enhanced spiritual awareness.
* Fasting combined with prayer or meditation can be a powerful way to elevate consciousness.
Why Join the Cleanse?
* A supportive community makes the fasting process easier and more effective.
* Participants receive guidance, educational materials, and access to a global network.
* Detoxifying is necessary in today’s toxic world, and fasting is one of the best ways to reset the body.
