Why Fast - May 2018

Question Mark

So you may be thinking that fasting could be beneficial, but don't know much about it or don't do it regularly. My goal is that through these Tips you'll gain a good understanding of fasting, and develop an appreciation for the value of it.

Let's begin by looking this month at reasons for fasting. Considering that we are tripartite beings, it makes sense that there are three primary reasons for fasting. The first reason is for spiritual growth, the second is for mental and emotional health, and the third for physical well-being. While your reason for fasting may be only one of these, a fast will have impact on all three areas. This will become more evident as we look at the types and benefits of fasts over the next few months. Remember, should you decide to incorporate fasting into your lifestyle be sure to consult your doctor first, especially if you have any health conditions or concerns.
