When it comes to being healthy, taking care of our bodies is just the tip of the iceberg. After all, we are also spiritual, mental and emotional beings, and these things are pivotal to our physical health.
If there is a practice that can tend to all the facets of health, it would be fasting. It's the secret to physical, mental and spiritual breakthroughs.
Not only does it draw us nearer to God, allowing us to hear Him more clearly. It can also be therapeutic in the realms of mental and physical disorders.
What makes fasting so powerful? How does fasting allow mental, physical and spiritual healing to spring forth speedily? In this episode, I talk about the multifaceted positives of fasting.
Much of what we see manifested in the human body usually stems from the part of us that can't be seen, which is our spirit, mind and emotions. -Dr. Deepa Grandon
