Preparing for Fasting

This is the time of the year when we all start thinking of ways to improve ourselves. Those of us who believe that our spiritual being directly effects our physical world turn to fasting as a way to achieve that goal. The purpose of fasting is not only to cleanse the body of toxins, but, to cleanse the soul as well. However, one must prepare for such an event. In my younger years, I found out quickly that preparing myself helped to achieve the desired results, both, physically and spiritually. In actuality, if you are going to begin a one-week or more fast, the preparing starts weeks in advance. You can prepare yourself first by deciding what exactly you want to achieve. What results are you looking for? Do you want to lose weight? More information on Fasting
