It won't let people take advantage of you if you take appropriate action even in that detached state. Appropriate action only matters in this case, not internal state, in my opinion anyway.

I liked what Pluto said. A great alternative source here I went from -3 to -2.5, now working on -2.25. Above source gave me great info to help doing that.

@Quanty Thanks. I hardly ever claim anything like that these days. My conversation style has become such that I almost always refer to a third party where the info came from, epistemological considerations and me simply following it to get to the point of direct experience (or not), very unknowing like. I sound much more reasonable when I do that, I think. Also, it's closer to being honest. ^^

Similar to what I was going to say. I heard Robert Morse mention in one of his videos regeneration of the adrenals to have a more proper fat storage behavior happen, including the belly area.

Interesting stuff! Hmm ... a Shungite water fast. Must be profound.

@pluto Hehe, Australia sounds super good to me! I get all starry eyed, thinking about sunny beeches and stuff thinking about it. Let's just trade perspectives and be happy where we are.

My original reply got deleted. Anyway, so I can expect 0-70ppm from our tap water. It's formed the same way as that glacial water as far as I know (a more accurate name would be lava rock water lol). I might go with that, if I don't find a cheap enough and easy enough way to distill it. I'm frugal a.t.m. Funny how I take these things for granted, and look with envy towards more southern lands with their local fresh fruits and veggies varieties and night/day length consistency and warmth.

@pluto One question. I've read that reverse osmosis or distilled water is required for water fasts. In Iceland, our tap water is mostly very soft and clean (no added chemicals) and that's what I usually drink. I'm wondering if it's soft enough and how soft the water should be. Is the softness even the only factor here?

@pluto Cool. Thanks again. Makes me think that a fruit juice would be even easier to start with, but that sounds unnecessary.

@pluto By different foods, you mean food groups? Fruits, vegetables etc. or are you thinking about monomeals? Like breaking a fast with only one kind of fruit first.

@pluto Thanks for the info. I've been mostly on raw veggies, fruits and juices now for some time. Feels pretty good. Think I'll be trying a minimum one week water fast next then, cause I'm intrigued.

@InfinitePotential Ah, well that makes sense. I usually drink some water before bed, but not too much. I'm pretty toxic too. Lymph stagnation, poor kideny/adrenals filtering, weak thyroid and what not. Been working on that since finding out about true detox. Makes me wonder, cause I'm focusing on getting good herbal formulas in, how effective water/dry fasting would be in comparison, or if I should first focus on detoxing/strengthening those tissues first via other means.

@InfinitePotential Hehe, yea, wouldn't really have to do anything during dry fast. Doing that, you could interestingly get some idea of the breatharian life. But peeing in middle of the night is a sign of health? Interesting. I do that, but thought it was kind of bothersome.

Very interesting. I'm guessing it'd be smart to try out some proper water fasting before trying something like that.

What language? HTML, CSS and Javascript are standard for the front end. If you will only ever need it to be a blog, you need just that or ready made solutions to get up and going quickly. If you may possibly want to extend it to a larger website, pick what you know well, or if wanting to try something new, I recommend Ruby on Rails. It's exactly what I'm working with now to make a minimalist blog, but I want to extend the project to a full-blown website for my business over time. I'm making my own blog implementation because I've some special needs, but there are many gems that you can install to set a blog up in no time.
