Dr. Tabatha Barber argues that fasting periods sharpen mental clarity and enable spiritual reconnection. She warns against treating your body like a garbage can and shares her own struggle with poor eating habits to show how mindful eating changes things.
Here's the thing, you guys. Your body was actually created to go without food for periods of time. That is how God created your body to be. When we tap into that, we get so much mental clarity, and we can reconnect with our creator and we can start to heal. So it's really important for you to start to control what you're putting in your body. You're not a garbage can. Like, I treated my body like it was a garbage can. Who's done that, right? Oh, it's no big deal. It's no big deal. I earn that. Snickers. I deserve that. I'm stressed out. Like, all the reasons under the sun, and I still do it. You guys just. It's okay. But you don't do it as long when you start to realize it's not benefiting you.
