I have struggled with many things, and one is focus and habits. We fall into habits and then realize WE NEED TO CHANGE. I find that when I set a line in the sand, like I will do this fast and commit to it to change my routine, whatever that may be. A fast could be to add something or take something away, it is to make a change. Basically, it is your mind telling your body that, you're in control. I can say I hate diets and refuse to do one but I am willing to commit to changes. Today I am beginning a fast to limit my media so I can focus on upcoming spring and cleaning up and out the areas of my life not serving me well.

You will rule your body, or it will rule you because as you feed it, it develops appetites and addiction to brain chemicals that get released by certain habits.

A fast helps you decide to make changes and the more you shift things around the more control you have over your life. My fast is to stop my internet posts for two weeks and writing it here will, so to speak, put the gun to my head with some shame behind it to force my flesh to comply. See you again when I have instituted some new habits. Blessings, Charity

Internet is such a distraction from to do lists and then those things pile up as we are avoiding discomfort of facing them and that may include time to plan healthy food or sorting a cupboard or pulling weeds popping up before spring hits full force..
