Mind Over Body—Lessons from 15 Days of Fasting

I’ve made it halfway through my 30-day fast—15 days of witnessing the incredible power of the mind over the body and the heightened ability to discern what truly nourishes me. This journey has been eye-opening, revealing the profound connection between what we consume and how we feel.

Here’s what I’ve learned so far:

1️⃣ Mindset is Everything: The fear of “How will I survive without food or water from dawn to sunset?” was just that—a fear. Shifting my mindset to I can do this and focusing on proper hydration from sunset to dawn has made all the difference.

2️⃣ The Power of Collective Consciousness: Fasting in community has amplified my experience. While I’m part of a small group doing the Collective Conscious Cleanse, knowing that nearly 2 billion people worldwide are fasting at the same time creates an undeniable energetic shift.

3️⃣ Heightened Discernment: My body now immediately recognizes the difference between home-cooked meals and restaurant food. No matter how “healthy” the restaurant, I can feel the difference—home-cooked, organic, plant-based meals fuel me in a way nothing else does.

4️⃣ A Deep Detox: As my body releases toxins, I’ve noticed incredible benefits—higher energy levels (even without coffee!), deeper sleep, and glowing skin and hair.

5️⃣ Enhanced Focus & Productivity: I’m accomplishing more in less time, leaving me with space to reflect, renew, and reset. Without distractions, I’ve gained clarity on what truly serves my joy and growth.

This cleanse has also helped me clear my mind of unnecessary noise—limiting social media and choosing only what nourishes my mind and spirit.

As I continue the second half of this 30-day conscious cleanse, I’m eager to see what more unfolds. I’ll share my reflections at the end of this journey—stay tuned!
