Fasting can be a challenge when there is no God to strengthen; and that's why fasting has to incorporate with prayer.
And this is why I am taking an opportunity to not only participate in a 40-day prayers and blessing to the nation and country, but at the same time taking the fasting opportunity to detox my system.
Recently I have acquired this interesting "balance slider". And because during fasting and prayer, the body can go into a conserve mode and I may easily feel sleepy, I decided to at least do this 50-times slide exercise a day, in alternate days in the office spread throughout the day. Just to keep me active.
I must say it is really quire tough and you have no idea how those hidden muscles at the glut area needed so much fat burning from over sitting!
Other than that, attempting to walk further than just park as close to the destination is also one of my challenges. Where I got to push a little more for the body to work more.
Of course, choosing safe walkways are important too!
Another challenge of mine is that I have been led (by God) to fast from coffee. As I am having pre-menopause symptoms with hot flushes, my body is trying to tell me this is overloading.
So I turned to technology to produce home made good mixes for better nutrient absorption and keeping everything as healthy as possible, like Daniel Fasting.(You got to read the book of Daniel to understand that, but basically it is plant base diet with as less fry or roast as possible but still pack with goodness)
I am loving this new machine (which I will write a review later) on how smooth this is making! And don't under estimate this smooth paste of thick soup. It feels my Cravings well!
And with brown rice in it, this has been a gluten free concoction too.
Let see if I can keep up with this for 40 days, which I already started 10 days ago.
Until Then
Stay healthy, stay curious and learn new things, and stay happy!
