5 days of fasting ... or 7!


Fasting, diets or dietary descents, are means of prevention and purification that allow the body to get rid of its accumulated toxins, in order to regain great vitality and regenerate the body and mind.

 

They have been practiced for thousands of years by yogis!

But before living the Adventure, it is important to be well prepared. Here are some recommendations:

 

A little food raid

A dietary descent is an opportunity to open a new relationship with the body, the mind, by becoming aware of all the inputs and how they stabilize us. 

This is the opportunity for a new energy autonomy, towards the Way of Satvika.

We will receive the physical benefits: skin, eyes, teeth, vitality, lightness.

It helps to adopt healthy eating, behavioral and lifestyle habits.

For a fast, the dietary descent is gentler than for a purge, it must then be very precise, adapted and well followed.

The 2 or 3 days before the fast, remove from your diet the strongest toxic substances such as coffee, sugars, alcohol and reduce the intake of animal proteins. 

During the Fast

In this fast, I propose a Juice per day, which you will discover in this blog .

The rest of the day, continue to :

  • hydrate yourself
  • practice one gentle yoga session a day with us online
  • take a quiet walk in beautiful nature with someone you love
  • state your clear intention as to the benefits and purpose of the fast.

 

In the Yogic tradition

Keeping you well hydrated

In the Yogic tradition, Fasting is Upavāsa, the way to bring you closer to the Divine: Ishwara.

It offers Tapasya, the asceticism that purifies and clarifies the mental tool, the psyche and the physical body.

Offer your Fast to Ishwara, so that you may be preserved from any excess of glory or blame and gain the wisdom that already resides within you: Buddhi.

I love you. Om 

Anandi

The water you drink will always be a good choice, all day, every day. You can also add a little lemon or lime to your water or infuse a pitcher of water with cucumber or orange slices. 

 

The vegetable broths will be made with very fresh and organic vegetables, 4 to 5 vegetables: carrots, leeks, chard, parsley, thyme, rosemary, turnip, celery, fennel ... whatever inspires you, but never potatoes!

Simmer, covered, for about 1 hour. Let cool for about 30 minutes. Strain the broth in a colander, make a good soup for your children with the vegetables!

 

Herbal teas: choose flower teas, calendula, peony, rose, herbal teas like thyme, rosemary according to their properties and what you need. 

Make sure you stay hydrated throughout the day, with an emphasis on water.
