Last night I realised that I’m at the three-quarters point of the fast. But numbers mean nothing. They cut up the truth of unadulterated reality. The truth is, I often can’t even remember which day of the fast I’m on, let alone what day of the week it is…

This video examines the whole issue and offers numerous practical solutions, ensuring the smoothest possible process of refeeding. If I don’t cover all your questions in the video, please feel free to ask in the comments section below!
A lot of people who ordinarily work out or exercise in everyday life are tempted to continue doing so while water fasting.

In addition to the general advice offered here on this website, I also offer more private and personalised online support as a fasting coach.* I’ve successfully guided hundreds of people through fasts of 3 to 40 days.

That security even tends to decrease the severity of detox symptoms – and when they do occur, I can help you find the most appropriate ways to relieve them.

Next fasting session (2019): Sept. 6-8 Nothing compares to fasting while on retreat. Unfortunately, though, actually attending one can be expensive and difficult logistically.
