#05: The Spiritual Connection Between the Body and Mind with Aaron Alexander

In this episode we delve deep into the transformative power of fasting and its impact on our body, mind, and spirit. Fasting isn't just about abstaining from food; it's a sacred ritual of self-love that unlocks our biological potential and fosters holistic health. The episode emphasizes the importance of fasting for maintaining the integrity of our body, mind, and spirit. By creating a space of freedom within ourselves, fasting allows us to experience heightened sensations, clarity of thought, and a deeper connection with our inner selves. During a fast of 12 to 24 hours, our body undergoes a remarkable transformation, leading to crystal clarity of mind and access to parts of ourselves that may otherwise remain dormant. This period of silence and abstention from food triggers the "off switch" in our nervous and digestive systems, facilitating autophagy and enabling us to drop fully into a state of mindfulness. The benefits of fasting extend beyond physical health; they encompass mental clarity, a healthier gut microbiome, enhanced cognitive abilities, reduced pressure on the central nervous system, and support for detoxification pathways. Moreover, fasting activates the glymphatic system, which acts as the brain's garbage disposal, further enhancing cognitive function and overall well-being. Ultimately, fasting is presented as a powerful tool for optimizing health and unlocking our full potential, both physically and spiritually. Embracing fasting as a ritual of self-love allows us to experience transformations and reach new levels of wellness. === TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:00 - Intro & Braking Through Plateau's With Fasting 00:01:14 - Disclaimer 00:05:05 - Chervin's Fist Experience With Fasting 00:10:00 - Benefits Of Fasting: Clear Mind & Clear Gut etc. 00:15:50 - Knowing How Much Energy Is Taken Up By Digestion 00:20:10 - Fasting Is Going To Help Your Metabolic System & The Way Your Mind Operates 00:25:15 - Programmed Cell Death & Conclusion === Chervin is the visionary Founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Cymbiotika, a highly acclaimed wellness brand beloved by both wellness enthusiasts and individuals seeking optimal health.
