To fast, do a water fast or a detox, is nothing new. It has been well known since ancient times that it was the fastest, easiest and most comfortable way to cure an ailment or illness.
Fasting on water alone is a big difference from doing a so-called juice fast. Juice is still food with nutrition, and a juice fast is more like a liquid diet or a calorie-reducing diet. It does not give you the same deep cleaning that can happen on a fast with water only.
Many people would like to go through a fast, a detox (detoxification) or cleansing, but feel insecure because they do not really know how to best carry it out. How do you prepare? What should you think about avoiding and what should you remember? How long is it OK to fast? How will I feel? Imagine if I cannot go through with the fast – what do I do then? What is the best food to eat when I start up again?
Yes, as you can see, there are many questions and concens and that is why I want to conduct fasting groups online.
This Is How It Works
I decide on a special weekend for the fast to take place. It is supposed to start Friday night and end the following Sunday morning. About 36 hours of fasting. Since most people work Monday-Friday and are free Saturday-Sunday, I have chosen Saturday as the day of fasting and Sunday to regain strength before the coming week. But you can of course choose another day or time. See the chapter below.
We Meet On Facebook In A Group Called Revealing The Magic
It is secret and is therefore closed to the public. There I add members, share information, answer questions from you and guide you through the fast. All participants can share their views, support each other and provide tips. You can see my information on how to prepare best, what to avoid, and how to finish the best way so you can arrange everything in good time before the fast.
Our fast is supposed to start after the last meal on Friday night and end at Sunday’s breakfast. I’ll be available to you at Revealing The Magic from Friday 9 pm until noon on Sunday. The group will be open to everyone (who signed up & paid) for at least one more week after the fast.
WHAT IS SO GOOD WITH FASTING?
- Our bodies are made to deal with lack of food. Not to be stuffed with meals / snack from morning to night.
- It will be a beneficial rest for the digestive tract.
- A juice fast is still food / nutrition, but water povides a true rest.
- Much is started and can be a gateway to
-cleansing on a deeper level
-positive influence on the immune system
-weightloss
-good self-esteem after carrying something out that was seen as a challenge
-cravings for healtthy foods appear etc. - Water fasting causes so many other activities to run low and the energy can be used for other things, such as cleansing, healing, building, rejuvenation, etc.
- It is lovely to have a nice spa day at home, to just relax and take care of yourself.
- A deep rest, where you start living clean afterwards.
You Do Not Have A Facebook Account?
You can easily get one for free. No one else can see your account as you first have to accept people to get access and you do not need to post pictures or any other information, unless you want to of course.
Would you rather receive the information by e-mail? This works too. You obviously miss the community in the group, but you’ll have information about preparation and finishing. And you’ll do something nice for your body by fasting, and that is what is important.
Doesn’t Saturday Work?
You can let Friday be your fasting day. Or Sunday, depending on your schedule. You can still join Revealing The Magic get information and join the community. Fasting is beneficial, especially in the spring and fall when seasons change, so know that there will be more opportunities in the future to take part, if you cannot make it this time.
If you want to extend your fast to 2 or 3 full days (you may have fasted previously and are more experienced), that is fine. Do plan your fast around my fasting weekend to get access to the Facebook group Revealing The Magic with all the information. If you are a beginner or if you are not in the best health but still want to do a water fast that lasts more than 3-4 days, I recommend visiting a fasting facility or that you are under the supervision of someone with medical expertise and experience of fasts.
Can Everyone Fast?
If you are reasonably healthy with minor conditions, it is beneficial for you to do a short water fast.
Are There Any People Who Should Not Fast?
Yes: Children, the elderly and people with diabetes, chronic kidney and heart disease, cancer, etc. should not fast. Please feel free to contact a health practioner if you feel worried or have a concern.

Advantages Of Fasting With Revealing The Magic Online
-To do a fasting program in a home environment, to rest and relax in your own home, yet get access to personal guidance.
-Have a forum to share experiences with others.
-It’s nice to do something significantly positive for your body and mind and have access to support. You may never have tried water fasting, but now you have the chance to “hold my hand” during the experience.
First Time?
It’s nice to do something significantly positive for your body and mind. A water fast can change a lot.
A 36 hour water fast is not a long period of fasting, but if you have never tried it, 36 hours of neither food nor other richer beverages other than water can seem long.
Even very long.
Therefore, it’s great to have prepared, know what to expect (what time of the day most people feel are challenging) and to have access to advice and information, as well as tips and comments from participants.
Cost
The price for all information, guidance and answers to questions from Friday to Sunday, as well as access to a network support group (for at least one week) should probably be around $50.00 / person.
But you get a discount!
You get a very nice discount because
1. You read On The Lime’s newsletters and have an interest in raw food and the importance of diet for good health.
2. Such a discounted price facilitates to fast and participate on a regular basis, which promotes health.
3. I feel it is so important that we all learn to take care of ourselves in a wise and efficient way by fasting regularly. So I would like you to join and then the price should not determine participation.
This is also what animals do when they do not feel well. They hide, rest and eat nothing.
With the introductory discount, you get the full weekend, all included as above, for just: $12.00!
Price: $12.00 / ea
Payment: PayPal – asa@onthelime.com.
(Swedish: Bankgiro 5051-4330. Swish: Contact me for number)

Most welcome!
I hope we meet up and I look forward to being part of a positive, supportive group which will help each other to feel even better!

PS – Water fasting is really quite simple. You just rest, eat nothing and drink lots of water ;-).
But, as mentioned, the information and a support group make a big difference and it is also very nice.
So do come along!
Good luck!
