Have you ever tried fasting? Share your experience.
Hello Sadhguru . I was watching on you tube about fasting with Dr Jason Fung and Dr Pradip Jamnadas. I was motivated to do it . Normally if I don’t eat I passed out. But no I was wrong. Firstly I started with twice a day meal then one meal a day then 48 hrs then 3 days fasting recently. I felt amazing. I thought I couldn’t do it but I did. Self control and self discipline is the essence. I decided to do it for my own health sake as I have cancer. And everyday I listen to Sadhguru . He keeps me going in life . Thank you.
P
Is he also talking about dry fasting
Yes, I love it in a good way
Yes, I did 24 hr fast for every day , meaning - eat only after 24hrs , no meals or snacks or juices in between 0 to 24th hr . I did this for 20- 30 days ,
my exp is : I could think clearly ,
calm, relaxed,
speech and clarity of opinion or statement made in meetings was articulate.
"On certain days body doesn't ask for food, if you fast on those days, many health issues will be handled, for those who do not have the awareness, ekadashi was fixed for fasting" - Sadhguru 🙏🙏

Only fast a few times in a year. It's a time just so your body can dump out any bad food so it don't add up to be too much, right guys? Pls tell me if you agree but that's my thought.

Fasting changed my life. I've done prolonged water fasting and now only eat 1 meal a day. 🤗❤
What do you eat in this one meal ?
and you are prone to sickness for not so much nutritions to eat
Fasting from water is not going to help. Your liver needs water when fasting from food.
@@JesseS1309 Obviously something healthy like lean meats, complex carbs and vegetables.
@@furonwarrior they are talking about only water fasting I think
"70% of our energy doesn't come from food, but from air, sun, water..." Thank you Sadhguru! I appreciate you so much!
It takes energy to digest food and some would say that this is wasting our energy. Foods that are easy to digest and support the body heal, the rest do damage and are hard on the body and bring toxins. Higher intelligence says we would live much longer if we didn't waste our body's energy on digestion.

Everything is good if you do in moderation
Fasting is life. I have healed my skin, omitted high blood pressure, and removed inflammation from my wrist and lower back simply from fasting. I dry fast mostly and sometimes water fast.
for how long?
@@exorc1smoI healed my skin over several months of dry fasting every weekend one or two days, my wrist and back, once both times two days. These situations of healing to dry fast occured over several years. Prep is crucial in how efficient your dry fast will be. High blood pressure a regime of every 3 weeks to two months, 3 to 5 days over a years time with once a week dry fasting of 24 hrs to keep the body accustomed to dry fasting.
I dry fast one year ago today for 4 days..
Today is day 16 of my fasting... I want to do 5 more days... feeling very well.. wish me luck:))

Currently on a 3 day water fast , day 2 & I feel light on my feet. I’m in a euphoric state.,spiritual bliss. It seemed like the moment I went on this fast I was on the outside looking in. Becoming more conscious of my actions,habits, & words. I feel like I’m being applauded by the universe, I feel aligned & unbothered, I feel whole & completely connected.
Pure fasting or drinking water?
@@fernandocesar2388 : you must drink enough water while fasting
Current body weight? 🤔
@@fernandocesar2388 only drinking water , and praying & reading the word. When i was absolutely hungry ate a pinch of salt.
@@vietphamminh1679 yes i was drinking plenty of water and when i became hungry just grabbed a pinch of salt. To be honest reading the Bible and praying made me feel like i was full
I do omad . I also do 3/4 day fasting a mount . Since i do it, no more diabetic 2 , no more cholesterol and high pressure , lost my over weight , no more back problems and all sorted of body pains and joints pains and no more sleep problems also and I'm feeling younger with more energy.....and I'm over 50
Thank you for sharing this. I am trying to get my A1c from 5.9 back to 5.3. Do not want to be a diabetic. I have started to do 3 days fasts and eat low carb. But I will try doing OMED I have heard alot about just eating 1 meal a day. Please if you get this I would like to know low long it took to reduce your A1C. Thank you.
Yes Linda yes!!!
People may not realize this, but they may think, "This is how i am, this is my nature", this is not your nature, this is the way you messed yourself..👌
I come from a fasting culture for spiritual reasons which happens anyway when fasting. It resets everything. The best thing I ever did.
Sadhguru introduced me to the idea of fasting, then of course medical science is backing it up... like much of his other wisdom. we are blessed to be alive during his time.

Fasting has been present in India since ancient times. Even in China
I will fast for three days every month small steps big changes
I have fasted for 30 days off/On. On nothing but water and coffee and minerals taken since december of 2019!! I tipped the scale at 400lbs!! Now in may of 2022 I am at 245 lbs!! It's been a long and dwindling road, it hasn't been easy but i cannot say that it cannot be done!! I just entered on the 8th of may 2022 my fasting state again and I'm going for 40 days on my 11th day of pure fasting as I'm writting this today, and going for the final weight loss goal this year!! Cheers to everyone!!Thank you Sadhguru you have so much knowledge to teach and I love all your videos about life!! God bless ya Teach!!
Congratulations! 🎈
What minerals?
What did you eat so you will not lose your energy??
I have digestion problem piles etc...how should I overcome??
Thank you for sharing. ❤️ How are you doing?
I have being eating 1 meal a day since the day I met Sadhguru a year ago. My health improved so much from the very first month that I kept it up because the benefits are just amazing! Intermittent fasting has transformed my life. Thank you Sadhguru 🙏
Same here..🙏
How much do u eat in one meal i mean how many calories
@@achyutam6518 Calories mean nothing... You can eat whatever you want just make sure it's good for you. If your one meal a day is a slice of pizza okay... So be it. If it's a chicken salad okay. That's fine. Just make sure there's at least 3
Protein (meat, fish, Chicken)
Vegetable
Grain
When I was intermittent fasting I'd eat everyday at exactly 6:00-6:30pm. I'd eat anything I wanted and still lost weight. As long as it's under like 1500cal which is a lot for one meal. I didn't lift weights at the gym because it's kinda useless as you aren't getting a lot of protein. I just ran 3 miles every other day of the week at the gym. I lost 30lbs in 2 months and didn't suffer one bit. Drinking a gallon of water a day is very important. Adding a small pinch of salt to it every morning.
@@MikeGiovenco Also foods high in protein are russet potatoes, sweet potatoes, spinach, collard greens, peas and many others.
@@paulclark8497 thank you ❤️🙏
I’m on the 27th day of OMAD. I don’t lose weight but my hip size decreased from 38 to 30 inches. 🤣 I’ve got clearer vision, smoother skin, sleep apnea stopped, and energetic while approaching the 24th hour mark of fasting. I’ll keep my OMAD journey for as long as I feel good inside out.

Thanks a million times 🙏👏👏🕯️SA 🇿🇦
Thanks. We wish for you the same)))
Your positivity and expression of caring will surely be returned to you multiplied.

Thank you alot
You definitely have to get your mind right before fasting. I’ve done a 30 day water fast. And have never been able to repeat this. 2 days max and I tell myself I’m starving. I will get back to the longer fast I know it. But for those proceeding on this journey, may it bring you mental clarity, spiritual healing, and physical strength! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Keep urself busy I a great way to do that
You over did it and now your brain associates fasting with misery...no need to ever exceed three days
@@richardlawson6787 if you believe in the benefits of fasting, you should at least extend your learning to the fullness of it. if you have something to heal within your body, you absolutely must go longer than 3 days.
try cutting out added sugar before the fast. i do this for 2 weeks and the fast is effortless with an absence of cravings.
If you do a 2 day fast each week you can fast 30 days in about 7 months . It may not be the same effect but it is still a good habit.
Just last week I have completed 5 day water fast. First 2-3 days is hard 4 th day I have Experience a burst of energy! So amazing. Breaking the fast with green smoothie green apples lemon cucumber ginger, it tastes so wonderful especially after 5 days of water only.
On my 3day
@did you loose any weight
Yes, I lost 10 pounds
When I feel ill or unwell, I do fast;
I recover without any medicine.
I'm 26 hours into my 84 hour fast and I'm feeling great i only got "1 wave of hunger" in the morning.I cooked for my family and didn't even crave it.
i have been intermittent fasting going on 5 years now i fast 23 hours a day everyday drink green tea and water all day and eat one meal in the evening. never felt better!!
If your are drinking green tea then you are never fasting cause you will never attain ketosis
Fasting changed my life am 54 and I feel so young. No more high blood pressure.
Love listening to this man each time :) I just did a 5 day water fast, now I am going on watermelon only for a few days and then other fruits :) and then slowly introduce other vegan foods 🤍🤍
How did it go for you? What changes did you notice from the water and watermelon?
What did you notice?
How
For a 5 day only 2 days is required to regulate back to normal foods
The sugar in fruit will negate the benefits of fasting.
Currently doing my first prolonged fast. My goal is hopefully to be a better person spiritually and in my heart. I am nearing 48 hours. I have no idea how long I am going to do it for but I guess until I feel... Like it's time.
Last one year onwards I am fasting on ekadashi and I eat only twice a day 10am and 6pm around...I feel very light... initially it was tough. But now I find very good eating twice..everyone who can handle it give a try ...
Good ji
I have started doing this since last month - I am really feeling good overall
Same but I eat around 5:30 AM and 6:30PM (Today is the second day)

@@wait4meluvv yup I agree with that!!

I fast 24 hours every day, in most cases I eat once every 24-36 hours, and lately been doing back to back 48 hour fasts, so eating every 48 hour fast, I am still going to the gym everyday feeling great and full of energy everyday.
Ekadashi fasting, intermittent fasting changed my body and relationship with food phenomenally when I look back!
Learning to get energy from the air, the sun and the water makes overcoming the compulsions of eating a completely natural process. Without that, fasting is about suppression, discipline and self-imposed suffering.
Well said
Breathe in those chemtrails....
My third day of fasting, then this video popped up it more encouraging,looking forward to 10 days
i struggle with complex ptsd and major depressive disorder.

It's impractical to start acing fasting from the word go. It will take time, maybe a couple of decent attempts and then you would start being on fast for a whole day. But till then don't be harsh on your body, go slow, go with fruits.

I am doing this in the last 3 years one meal a day or sometimes only water and eating when body demands food. No junk food or fizzy drinks. I lost weight during that time and now keeping the same weight but loosing fat. I had health issues before high blood pressure, digestive problems but all gone now.

I have been having one meal a day from last one month, results are amazing and improving my health conditions. Once in a week, I am completely on Fruit diet and that's helping me more. I am much more energetic with loads of stamina and helping me remain active and alert. Request everyone to start more with fruits on empty stomach and slowly go on increasing the fruit content by skipping your breakfast then evening meal. But do this gradually as our body is not so habitual. Then as per your body's capacity go on increasing the intermittent fasting which is minimum 8 hours gap between meals. You may go up to 18 hours gradually and steadily. Keep on experimenting as per your body's need. As Sadhguru said that Hunger will reduce your energy and Empty stomach will keep you active and alert. We must be able to identify this nature of our body. Avoid any drastic change. All the best.👍
What fruit? Apple? Banana?
Are u from Maharashtra ?

"Avoid any drastic change" I like that thank you.
fasting is truely life changing. 🙏🏼❤☺️
Points
-never drink liquids with food as it dilates the acid necessary to digest
-conscious eating should be encouraged ie eating only when I really want to
-once or twice a month go on really light diet or if you can just water, lemon water or honey water or fruits only

8 days nothing but water? dude, its harmful. did sadguru advice to fast for so long? beware there are chances of liver damage if you avoid solid food for such long time.
Why do foreign people have to take everything on an extreme level. Are you guys impatient or your always looking out of extreme highs in your life. Fasting is not obsessive. It should be done consciously, with sense of subtleness. Not forcefully or impulsively. Please understand everything Sadhguru says with reasoning, dont take anything literally. 🙏🙂 Stay healthy.
