Once you really start getting into your fasting, you may wonder how to really make the most of the time you spend fasting. After all you are resting your digestive organs, allowing the energy normally spent in that process to be put to whatever use the body decides to use it for, so is there anything else you can do? Glad you asked :)
Lemon Water
I've mentioned before, this is my go to drink when fasting (actually I drink it all the time), it's great for assisting in liver detoxification and I've also read that its great at eliminating estrogenic substances from the bodies.
Dowsing
Yes, I'm referring to pouring water over yourself rather than looking for underground rivers. As your largest organ, your skin is used both for absorption and elimination. Dowsing is a very big subject which I won't attempt to cover here, but it really can be as simple as pouring the coldest water you can get over yourself.
Detox baths
Bathing in a bath with either Epsom salts or Himalayan salts can also be a great detox, the salts help to draw impurities in the body out through the skin. You can find a lot of info on google (also a good place to look for info on dowsing)
Meditation
While you are fasting your body (by restricting food) why not apply fasting to your mind? Meditation can allow you to let your thoughts take a back seat to what's really important. When we fast (for our body) we restrict what goes into our mouths, when we fast for our minds we can restrict what comes out of our mouths.
Just a few ideas that may or may not be of interest to you.
