The Deeper Power of a 72-Hour Fast

I’ve been practicing 72-hour fasts for many years now - and the benefits go far beyond the physical.

Yes, the body resets. Yes, there’s cellular cleanup. But one of the most powerful shifts is something deeper…

It’s the realization that you are not dependent - you are capable.

You don’t just consume.

You produce.

You sustain.

You hold your ground.

Over the past year, I’ve aligned my fasts with the full moon 🌕 - a time that naturally brings things to the surface. Patterns, emotions, truths… things that are easy to ignore when life is comfortable.

And that’s where fasting becomes revealing.

It’s easy to feel good when you’re constantly fed, distracted, and pacified every few hours.

But who are you at hour 71?

Can you stay clear?

Focused?

Steady?

Optimistic?

That’s where the real insight begins.

Fasting has a way of showing you your edges - and your strength.

I’d love to open a deeper conversation around this.

Here’s a video Carleton shared that touches on some of these ideas:
