Water fasting people have used it for eating away their cancer.
0:03
Water fast is amazing and it is the biggest reset that
0:07
you could probably do in your life. I don't normally say
0:10
to people fast for weight loss because many people when they do
0:13
fast just solely for weight loss they don't learn the skills
0:17
on how to eat. If you want to continue detoxing then
0:20
eat raw fruits and vegetables. Oh my gosh, I forgot to mention the most
0:23
important thing. When you're fasting, the most important thing
0:27
is that you... Welcome, Wisdom Keepers, Soul Tribe, and
0:31
New Earth leaders to Soul Temple, your haven for growth
0:35
and self-discovery. I am Blythe Langford, and I'm going
0:38
to be your guide to helping you find yourself and
0:41
your true purpose. Together, let's shift from feeling stuck
0:45
and misaligned to living a life of purpose and
0:49
pleasure and prosperity. I
0:53
am super excited to share with you how you can have a spiritual holiday.
0:58
and a mental holiday from your mind. This episode
1:02
is all about fasting, which is one of my favorite
1:05
things. I have been fasting for the last 17 years.
1:09
I'm a breatharian. I don't even eat. That is not true. But
1:14
there are many people out there now. We're going to go into all sorts of things fasting today.
1:17
And like I said, this is one of my favorite topics. I have probably done every
1:21
fast out there. I've fasted from one day up to 50 days, multiple
1:25
times. One year I fasted for six months. So believe me, I
1:28
know about fasting and all of the elements to do with it.
1:31
So today I'm going to talk to you about all the benefits of fasting and
1:35
then also just the different types of fasting, the
1:39
history of fasting, different cleanses that you can do
1:42
depending on the organs that you want to cleanse, about worms, about
1:47
enemas, detoxing, how to break your
1:50
fast, how to detox and fast and
1:54
depending on your age, so many different things. Juice fasting, colon
1:58
care, blah, blah, blah, blah, all of the things. First
2:01
of all, I want to touch base on, like I said, my
2:04
experience with fasting just so that you can understand my background. I
2:08
started to get into fasting after I had cervical
2:12
cancer and then went plant-based. I
2:15
went plant-based solely because I thought I was dying. and
2:20
I was in extreme pain in my body. I
2:23
refused to have chemo, radiation, all of the things, any of the drugs, because
2:27
I just started to learn about organic health at
2:30
that time. I was paleo, I was eating all organic, probably
2:35
only for about six months, and I'd gotten off all medications. But
2:39
my mother wanted me to get the vax. I was from a high-vaxed family
2:43
and, you know, to stay in alignment with her, I did. And so after
2:46
my second vax, I got cervical cancer. And
2:49
I was really lucky because I had already
2:53
started to learn about organic health and knew that you could actually
2:58
cure your own diseases. And so I was like, cool, I
3:01
got cancer. Okay, cool. I went to my teacher, I was like, Guess what? I got stage four
3:04
cervical cancer. We get to cure this now. How exciting is this
3:08
going to be? Like I was excited about it. And she
3:11
was like, this is too far gone. Like you are too far gone.
3:15
I cannot guarantee that you're going to live through this. I
3:19
can't support you. And my whole
3:22
world crumbled. I'm like, what do you mean? That means she's
3:26
like, go and get the surgery, get chemo, get all of
3:29
the things. Cause I can't take the responsibility of your death. I
3:33
was like, Mic drop, you know, you
3:36
could hear a pin drop in the room. I was like, fuck, what do I do?
3:40
I didn't know enough then like I do now. You
3:43
know, I think I was like 26 or something like
3:47
that. And it was, this is two decades ago, you know, such
3:50
a long time ago. So they just, the internet had only just come out, put
3:53
it that way. The internet had only just come out. I was still typing like ding,
3:57
ding, ding, you know, like Google wasn't
4:00
a thing. Okay. So information, very
4:04
limited. And I said to
4:08
the doctors that were looking after me, I said, look, you know, I'm
4:11
not going to do any of the things that you want me to do. Straight up. There ain't no cutting,
4:16
medications. So what's another way that we can do? And they said, look, you
4:20
can have laser surgery, but we can't guarantee that it's going to work. I'm like,
4:23
great. I already know that I'm okay, so I'm just having this to
4:26
appease everybody around me. So I got the laser and then after
4:30
that I was excruciatingly sick. I
4:34
could not digest food. Everything I ate, even though I
4:37
was paleo, I was eating organic, I wasn't eating gluten,
4:41
I wasn't eating dairy, I wasn't eating late at night. I
4:44
was suffering. I would eat, my stomach would swell out.
4:48
There would literally be nights when we'd come home and I'd
4:51
be on my bed crying. My boyfriend would be like, what's wrong? I'm like, there
4:55
must've been gluten. And I'd ring my friend and be like, was there gluten in the meal? Cause I
4:58
am so much pain right now. She's like, babe, there's not. And
5:02
it was just like, my body was just giving up on me. And
5:06
so to be in that space, like I understand about having major
5:10
health concerns where you think your body is actually against you. I was just like in a
5:13
place where I'm like, what the fuck? I don't know how to feed myself.
5:17
I don't know what my body needs. I don't know what my body is telling me.
5:21
And thank God I found fasting because it changed everything. And
5:24
then I became like fucking psychic intuitive with my body and my body
5:27
can tell me everything in a heartbeat. And I'm like totally switched on, tuned in,
5:31
tapped in all the time. And that's what I hope for you too, where your
5:34
body is no longer a entity outside of yourself
5:37
that is working against you, but is actually like the greatest
5:41
gift in your life that is giving you all of the answers all the time.
5:45
And now you know how to listen because that's what fasting can
5:48
do for you. Now, I'm going to run through the benefits because
5:53
there is so many and you are welcome. First
5:56
of all, like I said at the beginning, fuck, if
6:00
you just want to go on a holiday and you really can't, or
6:03
if the people around you are triggering the fuck out of you and
6:07
you just want to get away, do it fast. It's
6:11
the greatest holiday that there is. You
6:15
can literally escape everybody by doing a fast. Because
6:18
when you are fasting, obviously there's a lot less calories going
6:22
through your body. But what actually happens
6:26
is because there's no chemicals going through your body as well, these
6:30
are all my own personal beliefs from 18 years of
6:33
fasting and being a naturopathic nutritionist and being a raw vegan chef
6:36
and being a raw food nutritionist and those things. But these
6:40
are the things that I've come to learn, that when you take out anything
6:44
that is inflammatory from your diet, you also take out any
6:47
chemicals. So, you know, when you're having processed foods,
6:51
there's chemicals in them and your body has to
6:54
process them. And it's almost like, I personally
6:58
believe, that when you have chemicals come into your body, That's when
7:01
you have disharmony and you feel a bit like shit. So
7:05
when you take out those chemicals, it's like your body only
7:08
has the juice that it requires. It has all of the medicine and
7:12
the nourishment it needs. So it's like happy. So
7:15
when you are fasting, you become just happier. You
7:19
become your intuitive self completely, right?
7:23
Not all the time, but pretty much most of the time, except in the evening once the sun
7:26
goes down, because then you get a bit tired and your nasty self can come out. But
7:30
if you're juice fasting, it's like you're just in your intuition, it's
7:34
like you are The best version of yourself. It's like you've got
7:37
no filter and you can just be 100% authentic. And
7:42
it's freeing. It's so liberating. So it is like a mental
7:46
holiday from the stress because believe me, when you're
7:49
fasting, you don't have a lot of energy to stress. So the stress just sort
7:52
of goes away. And I say this because I'm starting
7:56
a fast tomorrow and I can't fucking wait because
7:59
the mental stress just goes away. So
8:03
I can actually just be on point dealing with the things that come up
8:07
without any pain or suffering. Because when they come up, it's like, oh cool, what's
8:11
this? Like you're actually excited for things when they're like, amazing, yeah,
8:14
I know how to deal with this because I'm like fully tapped into my intuition. So
8:18
there's no blocks within us. So everything just becomes so much
8:21
easier. Now, yes, if you are one of my family members or
8:24
one of my ex-teammates, one of my staff that
8:28
are triggered by me fasting, especially my family, They'd
8:32
be like, Blithe, you had no brain most of the time. Great, because
8:36
it ain't serving me most of the time, OK? How
8:39
much does your brain help you suffer? Well, that little fucker was gone.
8:43
That was not there. It was just like this harmonious. time
8:48
of bliss in my brain all the time. I say this too because I
8:52
normally fast one day a week and
8:58
I fasted the other day and the second day I was like, oh my
9:01
gosh, I was just in this bliss day. I
9:04
was just like, oh life, oh my God, everything that happened, I was like,
9:07
this is the best. I was like meditating, being like, I love life,
9:11
thank you God. High self, Buddha, Allah, whoever you
9:15
believe in. This is I
9:18
was like crying with just the love for life. When was the
9:21
last time you were like that? And all I had to do was not eat, which
9:25
gives me so much time to do other things too. It's so
9:28
good. And so I was just like, so in love for life. And the only reason
9:31
I ate, you're welcome, was because I was filming this podcast and
9:35
I was like, I want my brain to be 100% on for everybody. And
9:39
my body was screaming to me to fast. And
9:43
so then the next day, Unconsciously, the
9:46
universe served me, or my higher self served me, these little things because I did
9:50
not listen to my body. And some things were not aligned
9:54
with what I wanted to feel. And it was a bit shit! And
9:57
all these things came up and I was like, ugh! It's because I didn't listen
10:00
to my body and continued to fast. I'm sure you guys would have loved to send me your
10:03
crazy and weird. So yeah, that
10:07
was really interesting. You just become so attuned and aligned and
10:11
yeah, it's so fun. So that is
10:14
the mental space that
10:17
you can go into and it's really great because if you do have
10:21
mental health issues, then it allows these
10:25
issues, because they're programs, they're not our organic state of
10:28
being. They're things and parts of us and parts
10:31
of our past that are traumas. So they're not
10:35
the original state of us. They're things that have happened to us. So
10:38
once we do fast, we actually see them for what they
10:42
are and the body starts to process them. So we
10:45
don't have to go and do this amazing, like, ayahuasca ceremony to
10:48
go through them, or we don't have to go and do somatic release or breath work. You
10:51
can just fast and then we can see the psychological or the
10:55
physical traumas start to alleviate and leave the body. It's
10:58
fucking profound. So I highly recommend fasting
11:03
for that. Now, oh yum,
11:07
the spiritual benefits. Oh
11:10
my god, the spiritual benefits are like... Okay, so
11:14
after my first fast and then
11:17
I came back and went raw because the reason why you eat raw food after a
11:21
fast is because then you continue the detox and
11:24
so your body will continue to detox all the impurities out of
11:27
it. Oh my god, my psychic ability is like a gazillion
11:31
X'd. Like, I am not fucking joking. I
11:35
could see the energy coming out of trees through space
11:39
and time, right? Because if you believe in quantum physics, you know, how
11:42
the world is, then everything is frequency and
11:46
everything is movement and it's like these tiny little
11:49
particles going everywhere. I could see that. I was like,
11:53
you know, people say, I want to live beyond the veil. Mate, I was living beyond the
11:57
veil. I was seeing all of the veils, all of the things. It
12:00
was amazing. And then the communication started.
12:04
So I first started to see the frequency, or maybe I don't know which one was first, but
12:08
then be able to get the communication from the plants, from the animals. I'd
12:12
also then started to be able to see in a human's body, if they
12:15
had disease, it would shine green. So I could see this toxicity
12:19
within people. Like, you know, my clients would sit down and be like, hey,
12:23
how's your liver? And they'd be like, oh my God, I'm having so much
12:27
pain in my liver. I'm like, great, not great, but here's
12:30
a remedy for that. Or somebody come
12:33
in and they'd have like, you know, something shining out their head and it'd be like, whoa. How
12:37
is, you know, you're finally like, oh, yeah, this is coming up, blah,
12:41
blah, blah. And so everything started to make sense. I'd be able to see beyond the veil. And
12:44
because all of us, when we eat biologically, which
12:47
is plants in their natural organic state, we're all supposed to
12:50
be this way. So it's not like I was special. I
12:54
was just going back to our original state of being, which is caretakers
12:57
of the earth, aligned with the earth, eating biologically, which
13:01
means eating in alignment for our bodies, which is of
13:04
the earth, because we're on this earth planet and she gives us our food. She
13:07
doesn't want us to kill anything. She's fine with us not killing anything because she
13:11
gives us the abundance of all the fruits and veggies, which is everything that our body needs.
13:14
But we've got canines. Canines are for roots. Your canines cannot
13:18
break bones. Therefore, you're not a carnivore. Okay. Like
13:22
dogs aren't even carnivores. They're herbivores. They eat omnivores.
13:27
We're herbivores. They're omnivores. They eat both. Cats are
13:30
carnivores because they don't eat anything else. My dog loves fucking watermelon. I'm
13:34
sure your dog loves chips. I'm sure your dog loves all of those things. You know, they're
13:38
not pure carnivores and neither are we. So
13:42
the spiritual growth everything just
13:45
starts to come online. That's why I'm so excited to do a
13:48
fast. I'm like, I was feeling a little bit of unclarity around like things
13:52
within my business and you know, just had a lot of
13:55
mentors in my life who I love and now I'm having a break. I'm
13:58
like, I'm just doing Blythe School with fasting and Mother Earth
14:02
and I'm going to get all the downloads because I always do. You always do.
14:05
It's like guaranteed that you're going to have this amazing expansive growth
14:09
when you fast because you go back into your organic state of being. And
14:13
what's also really beautiful is the ancestral benefits
14:16
you get. So what I mean by that is you start to clear out the
14:19
lineage trauma that has been imprinted into your DNA. Who
14:24
cares about that, Blythe? Well, guess what? You know what? Your kids care about that. Because
14:28
if you can clear out ancestral and lineage trauma, then
14:31
you're not passing that on to the next generation. You're not passing
14:35
that trauma onto your family. So think about it. If you've got an
14:39
area in your life like potentially wealth, money,
14:43
time, where you feel scarcity or lack, Or
14:48
maybe you feel unworthy or not enough or
14:51
unlovable or you don't love yourself. Can
14:55
you imagine being able to do a fast and
14:59
then that ends that cycle within your body and
15:02
then your kid never has to feel that. Turn
15:06
me on anymore. Oh my gosh. Isn't that what being a great
15:09
parent is about? I don't know. Is it? I don't know. I'm
15:12
not a parent. Or am I a parent to many? Questionable.
15:17
Now, how can fasting help you in your business? Like
15:22
I said, I'm a little bit stucked right now. A little
15:26
bit stuck. Not stuck, but I
15:29
just have this thing where I feel like unclear because I'm going through a lot within the
15:32
property at the moment and what we're birthing and creating the retreat
15:35
center and, you know, creating free energy devices and
15:39
getting all the right people on the land and getting, I'll be honest
15:42
with you, getting a refinance for the, um, the
15:46
next stage of development, renovation, and
15:50
it's a lot. It's a real lot. And so that can
15:53
put a bit of a lot of pressure on me because I'm
15:57
a single woman and you know, honey doesn't speak the English, so
16:01
she can't help me that much, my dog. So having
16:05
a fast this week, Oh
16:09
my gosh, it just alleviates all that pressure. And then I'll be able to
16:13
still deal with all of those things that come up with the refinancing, with the property, with
16:17
like getting new people here, with all of those kind of things. But then it will also give
16:21
me the clarity of who the fuck I am.
16:25
Who the fuck I am here to serve. Yes, it's all about
16:28
sacred women's business. Yes, it's all about building utopia. Yes, it's all about that.
16:32
But I want the finer little details where Mother Nature goes, Blithe,
16:36
you just forgot these little bits about yourself. Blithe, you just forgot the priestess energy
16:39
that you need to bring in. Blithe, you just forgot how you incorporate the elements into
16:43
the business. Blithe, you forgot how you, you know? It's like, oh,
16:47
of course. And it's not like you have to work for it or anything like that. It's
16:50
just like they come in in downloads like that, where it's like this deep inner knowing, right?
16:54
Where you don't have to work for it. It's like I just fast,
16:58
relax, do the things I love, bazinga,
17:02
and then I get the answers. It's so much easier forcing, so
17:05
masculine, not here for it. So divinity,
17:09
femininity, fasting, do it for your business. It's amazing. Relationships.
17:14
Oh my gosh, how can fasting benefit your relationship? Oh
17:18
my gosh. Well, like, you know when your
17:22
partner annoys you or somebody just like annoys you and
17:25
you're like, why the fuck are they annoying me? Like, why am I getting annoyed by this
17:28
shit? This is ridiculous. I fucking love them. And I'm
17:31
just like, well, guess what? When you fast, you
17:35
can just be like, you see why they're doing that. And the
17:38
space that they're coming from, it might be from a wound or it might be because they want love or
17:42
You know, so you just feel so much more love and compassion for people. You're just like, oh
17:45
my God, I see your soul. They might be saying, I just did the biggest shit in
17:48
the bathroom. Don't go in there. You're like, I love you. Thank you. Thank you
17:52
so much. I love you. Thank you for thinking of me. You
17:55
know, like it's become stupid where they're like, okay, eat some food.
17:59
You're an idiot. But it's like, no, you actually get to see
18:02
how much you love people. And then afterwards your relationship becomes
18:06
even more yummy. And then just like touching them is more sensual. And
18:09
like everything is just so much more beautiful. You
18:13
know, you just get to really appreciate them. Yes, there will be times where you're like still
18:17
purging your own things that are coming up and can be like, this
18:22
is annoying the shit out of me, but you come from a more honest and integral
18:26
place. So it can really nourish your
18:29
relationships as well. Or potentially go, you know what?
18:33
I was lying to myself. You've been lying to yourself. We're not a match. Why
18:37
are we forcing this? Let's just lovingly leave each
18:40
other as well. So whatever needs to happen in your divine union, it can happen.
18:44
Self-worth. Do you know how much it can help
18:47
your self-worth? Holy moly. When
18:51
was the last time you looked at your body and you were like, fuck, you are the sexiest bitch in
18:54
the world. I love you. There
18:58
is nothing wrong with you. You are perfect, whole and complete. A
19:03
lot of people really struggle with this, and I remember this because I used to
19:06
be this person. But whether I'm fasting or not, now,
19:10
I look at myself like that all the time. Sometimes I'm triggered by my
19:13
wrinkles, I'll be honest with you, but my body, I'm always like, fuck,
19:17
damn, bitch, how are you so hot? You're like 43. What the fuck?
19:21
Your body just keeps on getting better. How? So, and
19:24
not that it's all about external validation, but it's like, I love my
19:28
body. I love it internally, externally. I love how
19:31
it works. I love like, you know, yeah, I've got a prosthesis in my arm. Yeah, I
19:34
had cancer. Yeah, all these things. Oh my gosh, my
19:37
body's amazing. It's gone through all of those things. Do you know, like, if
19:42
I think about it and I tuned in, I would be like bawling my eyes now about
19:45
how much I fucking love this body. Like,
19:51
There is nothing more sacred to me in this world than this temple. And
19:56
I helped create her. And I would love you
20:00
to have that same level of love and respect for your body.
20:04
So once you do fast, then it allows you to have a deep appreciation
20:08
for your body and your self-worth because you know how to care
20:11
for yourself. So I would love you to have that much. love
20:15
and honor and desire to care for yourself in
20:18
the best way possible. And fasting is
20:21
a great way to initiate that self-worth again. Now,
20:26
I already touched on this, but purpose. Discovering
20:29
your purpose is amazing. like
20:33
when you're fasting. So you will generally become a lot more aligned with
20:36
your purpose whilst you're fasting because you remember who the fuck you are.
20:40
You remember all your greatness. You remember why you
20:43
came here onto this planet, but in such an effortless, easy
20:47
way. So really helps with that so
20:50
much. And pleasure, like I said, pleasure. Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.
20:54
Fasting for weight loss is a big deal. And
20:59
I don't normally say to people fast for weight loss, I'll
21:02
be honest, because I feel like many people when
21:06
they do fast just solely for weight loss, they don't
21:09
learn the skills on how to eat. I don't know if I've mentioned previously about
21:13
like weight loss clients, but generally my clients can lose 30 kilos
21:17
in eight weeks. And that's with eating without needing to
21:20
fast. Yes, it's eating raw, but it's eating. Or
21:24
sometimes it's not even eating raw, it just depends, but it's definitely through
21:28
eating. And then they learn those tools and tips because it's so important for
21:32
you to learn recipes or else you'll always go back to your old way of being. So
21:36
yes, fasting for losing weight, if you are going to
21:39
implement really amazing eating patterns and structures afterwards.
21:43
So that's really important. But if you are going to do that
21:46
and you want to add fasting in, of course it will just speed up
21:50
the process. So of course, I mean, you know, but
21:54
that's also something for you to be aware of as well, because if you've got mass amounts of weight to
21:57
lose, you don't necessarily want to lose weight so fast because you can
22:00
get a lot of stretch marks as well and loose skin. So
22:03
that's why it's nice to incorporate things in a really beautiful pace with
22:07
eating and then maybe just fasting one day a week or something like that.
22:11
But reach out to me if you want to know more about that. Then you can figure out a personalized plan
22:14
that's actually going to work for you. And
22:17
the most important thing is how to prepare for a fast and
22:20
then also how to break a fast. Because I hear so many
22:24
people are like, yeah, I did my fast and now I'm like eating nuts and
22:27
turkey and McDonald's the next day. I'm like, How
22:31
painful must that feel in your body? And they're like, yeah. I'm like, fasting
22:35
was so bad for me because now I'm in so much pain. It's like, no, you just didn't know how
22:38
to break your fast. Because just like the
22:41
fast is important, but breaking your fast is
22:44
more important than the actual fast. So if
22:48
you want to continue detoxing, then eat raw fruits
22:52
and vegetables. It is essential. So I'm
22:55
going to give you a specific plan on how to break your fast. So please
22:58
get a notepad and pen and write this down. The first
23:02
fruit you want to have when you break your fast is watermelon. Only
23:06
watermelon. It has got the most water content
23:09
in it. It's still got soluble fiber in it. But it's the thing that body will
23:13
absorb the easiest. It's the easiest for the body to break down, so it
23:16
won't upset your tummy. Okay, then
23:19
the next meal you want to have either oranges or
23:23
papayas. Not bananas or anything like that. That's too
23:27
hard, like they're too dense. You want to have something that, or
23:30
even like apple, and it depends on the length of your fast as
23:34
well. So I'm talking if you've just done like a day, three days, up to a week,
23:38
then you want to, then you can bring these things in. So,
23:41
you know, you might want to have apples, oranges, just really a few
23:44
things at a time, really, really light. And that's it.
23:48
And no leafy greens, no fats on the first day, no leafy greens
23:51
on the first day, because they're too hard and dense for the tummy. So
23:55
it will feel painful in there. Okay. So then once you've
23:58
had your watermelon, then the next meal you have, and you want to have at least
24:02
10 to 20 minutes between each food. So you could be
24:05
like, yeah, but watermelon's not going to fill me up. Eat the whole watermelon. It'll
24:08
fill you up. And then you're like, oh, orange and apple ain't going to fill me up. Eat
24:11
a whole bag of oranges. It'll fill you up. Believe me. And
24:15
you're like, oh, apple won't fill me up. Eat a whole bag of apples. It'll fill you up. But
24:18
you want to make sure you have watery fruits before your apples. Eat a whole papaya. Like
24:22
we're so trained to think, oh, I can't eat too much fruit. What?
24:26
It's so dumb. Like, they're so
24:30
low in calories. Eat more fruit. Straight up, eat
24:33
more fruit. People look at the amount that I eat, they're like, how
24:37
are you not the fattest man in the world? I'm like, because
24:40
I eat fruits and vegetables. They're like, it's so much food. I'm like,
24:43
I fucking love eating. I'll eat as much as I want. I
24:47
stay as skinny as I want. If I wanted to put on more weight, I could easily.
24:50
I used to be a lot heavier. Look at my old reels, go way back in my
24:53
thing. I used to be a lot heavier, still on a raw and vegan
24:57
diet because I did a lot more weight training. I did different things, but
25:01
now I want to be light because I like to
25:04
be agile like a fucking Dear, when I run, okay?
25:07
That's why. Those things. And then in the evening, after you've had your fruits,
25:11
then you could have a salad, not greens. You'd
25:14
have watery vegetables. So you'd have cucumber, tomato,
25:19
maybe some grated zucchini and have
25:22
a lot of that. And then you'd put some Celtic sea
25:26
salt over the top, some lemon juice, some pepper. If you want some, don't
25:29
do chili. If you want some chili, you could do, no, ginger. Ginger would be better. grate
25:33
some ginger over it, mix that all up. So yummy. Actually, when
25:37
you've finished fasting and then you eat food, oh my God,
25:40
it's like an orgasm in your face. Like, eating
25:43
the food, it's like, it's like
25:47
that. It's like the best thing that you've ever eaten in
25:50
your life. Like, oh my God, when you eat it, on watermelon after
25:54
you finish fast and you're like oh my god there's watermelon how
25:58
is it so good the salad
26:01
you're like oh my god how is this food so fucking
26:05
good because you're getting all of its vibrational frequency. You're
26:09
in alignment with the earth. There's no mistake that we're supposed
26:13
to be turned on and love our food. But
26:16
we don't because most of the food we eat is dead and it
26:19
doesn't have an energetic frequency anymore. It's
26:23
not pulsating life. But when we eat fruit
26:26
in its raw organic state, especially after we fasted, we
26:31
are getting that pure life force and fuck you feel the vibration going through
26:34
you. Because all fruits are gifts from the earth because they
26:38
need us as the caretakers of the earth to seed their
26:41
babies around the world. That's what fruit is. People
26:45
are like, but fruit's got a vibrational frequency as well. Yeah, fruit and veggies do
26:49
because they want us to eat them. We are the seeders. We go and plant
26:52
the seeds. And so they give us the fruit in order
26:55
to love the trees. That's how it's supposed to be. And so you just feel
26:59
this divine frequency of love going through you. And oh my God, it's fucking
27:03
as good as sex sometimes. I'm not going to lie. I'm actually not going to be able to touch
27:06
on everything that I wanted to touch on because obviously fasting is one of
27:09
my favorite subjects. So we're going to have to do another episode on some
27:13
of it. But the things that I can touch on is the different kinds
27:16
of fasting. Because you're like, what? Isn't there only one kind of
27:19
fasting? No, there's not. There is water fasting, when you
27:23
just fast on water. Now this is the second
27:27
most intense kind of fasting. Dry fasting on nothing is
27:30
even harder. But water is really challenging and
27:34
I would only recommend doing a water fast if you are fucking
27:38
sick, like you are dying and
27:41
like an extended water fast that is and you need to like heal yourself
27:45
immediately because you've been given a bad prognosis. So
27:49
water fasting would be a way to get all of
27:52
disease out of your body as quick as possible and allow your body to
27:55
start eating away the disease And then
27:58
you can literally, it's been known for, I'm not going to say it cures
28:02
cancer, I'm not going to say that, but
28:05
people have used it for eating away their cancer. People have used
28:08
it for eating away disease. So water fast is amazing and
28:12
it is the biggest reset that
28:16
you could probably do in your life. It will add, like
28:20
there's science behind it. I don't have it on me right now,
28:24
but there is science behind it. It can add like a decade onto your
28:27
life, a week or two water fast, like far out. That's
28:30
fucking worth it. And quality years. It's fucking amazing. So,
28:34
water fasting. The next thing you can do that's the most
28:38
intense kind of fast, and I do dry fasting intermittently every
28:42
single day, but it's dry fasting, so it's no water,
28:45
it's nothing but air. Intense. Now, I used to
28:48
want to be a breatharian. We can go into this in another episode, but
28:52
I used to want to be a breatharian so bad. And then
28:55
I realized, Blithe, you just love food too much. Like, who are you kidding? So, you
28:58
know, I don't do that anymore. But dry fasting is the most challenging kind of
29:02
fast that there is sometimes. But once you've done a few fasts and
29:05
then you do dry fasting, then it just becomes normal. Like for me, like
29:08
I can dry fast most days for like 18 hours. It's not a big deal for me
29:11
anymore. Love it. It's fine. And then there's intermittent fasting, which
29:14
is the easiest kind of fasting. So maybe you just don't
29:18
eat during and you maybe just drink during the morning and then you
29:22
eat like a meal in the evening. Or maybe you just have a lunch and a
29:25
dinner. It's the easiest kind of fasting. And that's how everybody used to
29:28
eat before breakfast was invented. And they started to want
29:31
us to consume more food so that they could sell us shit. Right. Everybody
29:35
used to intermittent fast. If you look up what Jesus studied in
29:38
the Essene text, the gospel of peace, then everybody intermittent fast and
29:41
everybody was encouraged to eat less. to prevent disease and they all
29:45
cleansed one day every single week. No food and
29:50
yeah, no food. So then there's also juice
29:54
fasting, of course, which is the most common because it's the easiest. Now juice
29:58
fasting to some people isn't even considered fasting because you are still consuming
30:01
calories. However, it is the most easiest way
30:05
of fasting and especially if you're having like fruit juices, then
30:08
you will still have calories and you'll feel really fucking happy. Like
30:11
that's what I do. I like juice fasting and then I'll also have teas with
30:15
it as well and water and fresh coconut water. Now it's
30:18
really essential that you understand the difference between different kinds of juice. So
30:22
first of all, there's sweet and savory juice, but then there's fresh
30:26
juice and there's processed juice. So every
30:29
single juice that you get in your supermarket is processed
30:33
juice. Now what that means is it's been pasteurized. It's been heat
30:36
treated. Once a juice is heat treated, the
30:40
sugars in there, the natural sugars and their natural enzymes, they die and
30:44
they become toxic to the body. Whilst you think that you're
30:47
drinking this juice and it's really good for you, it's the opposite. The
30:50
body doesn't actually have the enzymes to process that food. It's
30:55
literally like having white sugar, like drinking
30:59
spoonfuls of white sugar. That's how toxic juice
31:03
is. So you want to make sure that you juice your own juice
31:07
or you go to the shops and get freshly squeezed juice. And you can be like, Blythe, my juicer is
31:10
so annoying. I have to do all the parts. That's great. Guess what? I've got a solution for
31:13
you. So just use your blender, get your blender, chop
31:17
the things up really fine, put them in the blender. You can put a little bit of water in there, blend it all up,
31:20
and then put it through a nut milk bag. And a nut milk bag you can
31:23
find online. Just Google it. It's what us raw vegans use
31:27
to create cheese and all sorts of things. but it allows you to separate
31:30
the juice from the pulp so then you can literally just have the
31:34
juice in there. Oh my gosh, I forgot to mention the most important thing. Far out.
31:38
When you're fasting, the most important thing
31:42
is that you consume no fiber. So everything needs
31:45
to be a juice or water. Now why I say
31:48
that is because people are like, I'm on a smoothie fast. Okay, cool. But
31:52
a smoothie fast is literally just food that's mashed up. So
31:56
whilst you think you're fasting, you're not. You're actually still
31:59
consuming food. Whereas when you're
32:02
fasting, you are only consuming a liquid. So you completely get
32:07
rid of fiber from your diet. And what this does is after
32:10
three days, your digestive system will shut down. And
32:14
once your digestive system has shut down, then it will start to
32:18
eat disease in the body. That's the whole point of
32:21
a fast because you will be able to reverse
32:25
age yourself because remember aging is just It's
32:29
not a necessary People
32:33
used to live a thousand years aging is a super fucked up Paradigm
32:37
that we live in that isn't our organic state of being so we can
32:41
legitimately anti-age ourselves by
32:45
fasting. So it is really important for the digestive system to
32:48
shut down because once it has shut down, 80% of
32:51
our energy is spent on digestion. So once it shuts down,
32:55
80% of that energy will then go into treating diseases
32:58
within our body. But then the best part, it
33:02
changes the neuroplasticity of our brain. So
33:06
we get new neuropathways. We go through and
33:10
are able to end toxic programming in
33:13
our minds and in our body, and so that we get to go back to our
33:17
organic state of being. We get to go back into this flow. We get to go in this rhythm
33:21
of nature and in our bodies. start to
33:24
think expansively and collectively and
33:27
as oneness rather than as separated and we have
33:31
greater love and capacity to love and greater intuition to
33:35
grow our businesses and our relationships and our
33:38
self-worth and so that's why you want to make
33:41
sure you have no fibre. Don't do yourself the disservice of
33:45
having fibre in your fast because you
33:49
won't get your digestive system shutting down and you
33:53
won't have the profound effects. Now,
33:56
I do want to explain the side effects of fasting as
33:59
well. If you've been one that's been drinking a
34:02
lot, alcohol that is, you will be
34:06
expelling all those toxins out of your body. So you might have hot
34:09
flushes, you might have sweats when
34:13
you sleep. Not always, and especially not if you're juice fasting, but when
34:16
you're water fasting potentially, especially if you drank the day before. I would highly recommend
34:19
not doing that. Give yourself a bit of time of clean eating before you do
34:23
a fast. But you might feel nauseous at times. You
34:26
might feel lack of energy. You might feel a bit jittery. You
34:31
might feel as soon as the sun starts to go down that your head wants to go
34:34
down as well. These things are all normal. You might become really aware
34:37
of your thoughts and you might notice yourself purging
34:41
all of these thoughts and purging emotions. So you might feel really angry. as
34:45
your liver starts to cleanse because that's where the liver stores anger. You
34:49
might start to purge a whole lot of grief and feel
34:52
sadness because your body is holding that. And these areas
34:56
of you purging need to come up and out because that's what
34:59
causes disease. Disease is just unexpressed emotion
35:03
stored in an organ. So once you can fast, you
35:06
will literally be purging these things out of your body and you will feel them.
35:10
You've got to feel them to heal them, right? So they are some of
35:13
the side effects. And if you want to learn more
35:16
about fasting, I literally have fasting that's included in every single
35:19
one of my programs because I think it is the foundation for this human body. And
35:23
no matter what you're dealing with, whether you want to learn more about your relationship, you want
35:26
to grow your business, whether you want self-worth, first of all, you have to find
35:30
the foundations of worthiness within yourself to go to the depths. So
35:34
that's why I love putting a different form of fasting depending on
35:37
what is appropriate for the individual. into
35:41
every single program and retreat that I do because
35:45
it gives you the growth and the surety
35:49
and the self-assurance that so
35:53
many of us desire and the joy and the fun and the play and
35:56
the connection to spirit and source and the environment
36:00
and our psychic abilities. It's just so fucking cool. If
36:05
you're inspired to do a detox but you're not sure where
36:09
to start or if you want to just clean out your kitchen or
36:12
if you're about to have a baby and you want to know how to get your body and
36:15
your mind healthy because you're not sure about fasting for you or
36:19
if you want to really excel in your business and
36:23
you feel like this could be a vital piece for creating foundations, sustainable
36:27
foundation of growth for you, then reach out because this obviously
36:30
is something that I'm so passionate about And I've just seen
36:34
for myself and everybody that I've taken through fast, the
36:37
amazing transformations that they've had. So
36:41
I look forward to hearing more from you or more about
36:45
your fasting journey. Pop it in the details below. And like
36:49
I said, I'm doing a fast tomorrow. So jump on the bandwagon. Do
36:53
one day. Do that diet that I said, even if you can't do
36:56
a juice fast, just do the watermelon, then apples and oranges,
37:00
then papaya, then the little salad in the night. Start off
37:03
with that and then the next day do juice or maybe just do
37:06
teas. You'll feel fucking amazing, like seriously, and
37:09
you'll purge out all the things that are going to shorten your life.
