7 days without solid food: the body/mind detox
Not gonna say it was easy but I will say it was worth it.
Day 1 blended fruit
Days 2-6 water
Day 7 blended fruit
The effects were noticeable and a number of changes have been implemented in my life since completing the fast.
The above film was made on the 6th day of my fast and you may notice how the editing style is a little different from normal. Could it be that my brain is functioning more efficiently due to the lack of food?
The great minds of our past used fasting as a way to achieve optimal brain functionality.
This was not my goal but still very interesting to observe. Our brain kicks in to a kind of 'emergency mode' when the body is empty of fuel, mostly to encourage us to find food!
My goal was to detox my body in preparation for a period of body/mind healing.
There is so much evidence today which confirms the effectiveness of fasting.
We are going to be here in the South of France till the crypto market is back on the up again, so it is my intention to use this time as productively as possible.
My primary goal is to regrow my receding hairline, documented in the previous episode.
I have already noticed some changes within my body and mind since fasting and look forward to sharing these with you in the next episode.
Enjoy the film... and keep following for the results.

Awesoooome! I just finished a 25 juice fast. The spouts of energy would come and go and was expecting to be more energetic towards the end but wasn’t. I did find mornings a pleasure rather than a drag and I didn’t crash in the afternoon like I normally would. Definitely needed less sleep than normal and I also recall not sleeping that great. Awesome that you’re sharing your journey, will you ever do 40 days?
40 days seems a bit extreme to me, but I never say never.
Awesome to hear your experience with fasting. I feel like it is something important for everyone to at least try. It's just that few of us a brave enough to take up the challenge!
When I was fasting for a few weeks, I would lay down to sleep & be up a few hours later feeling more full of energy than 99% of my other wake ups ever. Very strange
Very cool to share the fasting, it is pretty amazing the crazy things that can happen from simply not eating. Gets psychedelic for me
At times I also felt the psychedelic twist to my visuals. Great fun!
Ya, but it is important to let people around you know what you’re up to. People in this culture get really scared when they see someone having a spiritual journey.
Hello, you had a post a few days ago about Nexo. Where did you buy yours? I'm guessing Changelly, still have a bad taste in my mouth about those guys. I see crypto.com is another option, have you used it?
I was lucky to be part of a trading group which pooled together to buy in the pre-sale, direct from the company.
Am assuming we can buy Nexo on their website now?
