Wait without thought

I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hopeFor hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love,For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faithBut the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought:So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.T.

Hi loveThe real motivation was realising I'm in my 40s and the best thing I could do for my leg injury was to lose excess weight and be as strong as possible We've been talking about intermittent fasting this month and last week I mentioned one of our cleansers had lost over 2 stone using intermittent fasting. Joanna was kind enough to share her experience to give some inspiration and tips  Add me to the Autumn cleanse wait list - 21/9/22 When you have excess weight to lose this is considered a Kapha imbalance in Ayurveda, fasting is recommended and can be done more often in these circumstances, for weight loss and detox.Joanna had over 2 stone to lose so she practiced IF...

My tips for intermittent fasting

Hi loveI wrote last week about practising Intermittent Fasting (IF) and how I find it great for health and weight management with the main three benefits being autophagy, ketosis (fat burning) and digestive rest.
