A New Kind of Reset: How Fasting Became More Than Just a Health Habit

Lately, I’ve been on a new journey—one that’s reshaping more than just my physical health. It’s reshaping my mindset, my discipline, my spiritual connection, and my energy.

That journey is fasting.

After reading Fast Like a Girl by Dr. Mindy Pelz, I was inspired to really lean into the power of fasting as a ritual, not just a health trend. And let me tell you—this has been a game-changer.

This isn’t about depriving myself.
It’s about discipline.
It’s about intention.
It’s about reclaiming power over my body, my cravings, my schedule—even my thoughts.

Through fasting, I’ve started to feel lighter, not just physically but mentally and emotionally. It’s like my body has been craving this pause… this reset. And with each fast, I’m noticing more clarity, more focus, and more strength to say no to the things that no longer serve me.

Rooted in Stillness: A Soulful Pause to Reconnect

---

Spiritually, this has been powerful.
Fasting isn’t just about food—it’s about removing distractions. It’s about making space for God to speak. It’s about quieting the noise, calming the chaos, and tapping into something greater than myself.

In those hours of stillness, I’ve found healing. In the hunger, I’ve found humility. And in the practice, I’ve found self-control that’s spilling over into other areas of my life—my parenting, my mindset, even my work.

I’m not perfect with it.
Some days are harder than others.
But that’s the beauty of discipline—it’s a practice, not perfection.

If you’ve been thinking about fasting, I encourage you to explore it—not as punishment, but as a way to reconnect with yourself. Start small. Be gentle with your body. Learn what works for you. And when you fast, don’t just focus on what you’re giving up. Focus on what you’re gaining: clarity, strength, presence, power.

This journey has reminded me that the real reset doesn’t start with a new planner or a new goal.
It starts within.

And this? This is just the beginning.
