Can I say hello as this is my first post... so I started fasting recently with a 72 hour duration to start with. This apparently is the time that it takes to get the immune system reboot response. I found it heart opening and clarifying. I have since continued each week with 36 or 48 hour fasts. I only consume yerba mate during them and feel this is a superb companion to the practice as it contains so many nutrients and has caffeine that takes the edge off hunger but does not cause jitters or acidification. My practice now consists of cold showers, headstands, veganism, fasting, flower essences, nofap and yerba mate along with self abidance and occasional use of sacrements. It is becoming easier to return to Truth after being swept away by thought. I really feel that that I will continue to fast for the rest of my life as I am only at the beginning but the way it makes me feel is great
