Hey guys,
I just completed a 45 day fast about 2 weeks ago, and it changed me! I loved every minute of it, I felt I healed a lot of things on many level, and I made a lot of changes in my life, career e.t.c

-------------BUT--------------
Since I broke the fast, Ive been feeling off centre, my emotions are awol, I just want to be alone, ive sort of sunken into a kind of emotional funk I don't know how to get rid of.
A lot of issues I thought I had dealt with years ago have surfaced again and to be honest, part of me feels like I dont have the strength to deal with them. WHen I was fasting, I felt I could handle everything, now I feel like the opposite. Im meditating, doing affirmations, e.t.c I feel like im being guided into another fast, Part of me felt like I broke my fast too early. Maybe fasting some more would have helped me deal with these emotions better?

I want to fast again and gain some clarity and give myself time/love/space to handle things I dont know....

Has anyone else experienced this?

xx

it sounds to me like you were working on issues and now that you aren't fasting anymore you figured they'd just go away? not the case at all. once the door is opened, it's open.

all the best on your fast.

yeah you're right Aleesha, Once the door is open its open! Thanks for your reply. I want to face up to things and deal with them. If i dont deal with my issues now, they'l come up again in the future, louder and stronger.

I feel like my very person hood is being shaken up and challenged! I like change though, so this is certainly good. I asked for it anyway!
Im going with my gut feeling and throwing myself into another fast, Ill see how long it goes on for, I dont feel like its a long one though,.. but who knows??
I know im being guided through this, so I will be fine.

:) Thanks Aleesha xx
