#85 - Listen to Your Body:The Healing Power of Fasting

1. Listening to Your Bodys Signals When you’re sick, your body often redirects energy towards healing and fighting off illness. By not eating or reducing food intake, you allow your digestive system to rest, freeing up more energy for your body’s immune response and recovery processes. Often, when we're sick, our appetite naturally decreases. This is your body’s way of telling you it needs a break from digesting food. Honoring this signal by not forcing yourself to eat can help you recover more quickly and comfortably. Eating when you're sick can sometimes exacerbate symptoms, especially if your digestive system is compromised. Fasting or eating very lightly can reduce inflammation and prevent additional stress on the body, which can be particularly beneficial in cases of gastrointestinal issues or when fighting off infections. Let's embark on a transformative journey together in 2024! Here's to a year filled with holistic wellness, spiritual awakenings and living from your energetic being. Wishing you great health, Wendy x x
