I want to do a 40 day fast but I keep failing

A lot of you probably think that is unhealthy, but I am going to do it anyway. These last 5 days I did a 3 day water fast and a 2 day water fast, but unfortunately after my 3 day fast, my mom bought my favorite food and I could not resist. After my 2 day fast, I opened the fridge and I had a grilled cheese sandwich, cup ramen and piece of cake (along with some fruit but all the other stuff cancels that out). I am going straight back into this 40 day fast and want to make sure that I do not relapse this time.

I want to go fully into the fast not only to lose some weight, but to answer some spiritual questions. Lately, I have been pondering my ancestry and although I come from a muslim background, I suspect my ancestors way far back were jainists. I believe that it is in my blood to fast for longer periods of time and I actually feel very healthy during my fasts. Its only when I crave certain foods after seeing them that I cave in.

I have already been listening to several audios on self-improvement, but is there an audio by Sapien about maintaining a healthy body during a fast? Or an audio to reduce cravings?

1/4 teaspoon of Himalayan sea salt once or twice a day is common, in 8 to 16 ounces of pure water. The above article recommends more and it’s up to you. A lot of food cravings are really just cravings for minerals, which have zero calories and will not break a fast or restart the digestion process.

Bless you bro. I am going to take this fast very seriously. Thank you for answering my post with sincerity. Sodium and photosynthesis sound like great supplements to my fast.

I’m excited for you. Please share how well it goes. Fasting has done great things for me but I’ve never used photosynthesis with it. I can only imagine how it might change things. Especially if you have a nice secluded outdoor spot.

On my 3 day fast and 2 day fast that I just did, the results were nothing short of amazing. In fact I had increased energy and was much much happier. I also feel that fasting boosts your results from subliminals. Its a bit like your body absorbs the frequencies on the audios much better and they become part of your aura. That’s just my theory, but the results speak for themselves.

If I could do 40 days of fasting, I know that my life would completely change for the better and that by the 40th day something amazing will happen. Just a gut feeling of mine, but trusting your instincts gets you very far.

Photosynthesis, as @Atreides suggested, is a great audio. I’ve found that it significantly reduces cravings and helps maintain health during fasts.

Vitamin C on Patreon allows the body to produce vitamin C by itself. It can increase energy and reduce cravings, and only requires a few listens every one to two weeks.

In general, raising your energy levels might reduce cravings and maintain a healthy body. Here is a list of audios which might help maintain energy levels or a healthy body during a fast:

These audios can work well together synergistically with fasting:
