Hallo!
I'm thinking of doing a 4-day fast this coming weekend, but I'm also *supposed* to have my period any time now...
Any counter-indication? I don't plan much on doing anything besides catching up on movies and reading and writing...
I think I sould be fine, but just checking with you, bunch of experts...
I never really fasted, just last August, having just one meal of salad a day for a week and drinking Green+ in orange juice... that wast great.

Re: Fasting and Bleeding?
Thu, May 26, 2005 - 12:18 PMits perfectly fine... in fact, i believe its a good combo
care to share a bit of the regimen in those 4 days of fasting?
personally, i believe any fasting will reap physical benefits... but 4 days seems kinda ambiguous... in terms of overall objective in getting some good cleansing done

Re: Fasting and Bleeding?
Mon, August 22, 2005 - 6:33 PMmy moontime is a perfect fasting time, my body slows down a bit, wants comfort, warmth, and rest. Also i have found that i rarely want to eat anything on the first day of my moon. I will be doing a 4 day water fast in about 3 weeks, its part of a vision quest. I am thinking about doing some juice fasting before hand. Anyone have any ideas of juices high in iron?
many blessings, luladreams -

I have to admit it.
I didn't do it last time.
Fasting scares me.
Last year I had a week where I slept 14 hours a day and all I ate was a salad a day and all the energy I had was to watch 3 movies a day...
How can I keep my yoga practice and activities and fast??
Is the fatigue proportionnal to the toxins you're eliminating?
Lula, how's your fast going? Are you done?

Tue, October 25, 2005 - 12:25 PMI think I would be sleepy too if all I ate was a salad a day. Or maybe you needed to sleep. The fasts I've done are done with fresh squeezed juice. Lemons or oranges. I never had a lack of energy, in fact it felt great to run, and I could even lift weights.

Fri, September 23, 2005 - 4:33 AMMy great grandmaw's name was Lula (Lula Mae actually)...she was a solid Appalachian woman who knew how to go into the woods with a bucket and come out with ingredients to treat whatever was ailing you.
When my brother and I were kids and would get colds, mom would drive us up to her farm and she'd gather forest plants, bring them back and steep them in well water on her wood-burning stove.
Maybe it is just selective reminiscence, but I never remember being sick at all the next day.
Anyway lula, it was great seeing your name on here. It brings back great memories for me and I rarely see or hear it these days. -
