Gerode, Sonnenstein, Germany

Summary

Fasting is the traditional way to pause, find stillness, purify oneself physically, emotionally, and spiritually, and become more flexible and receptive again. Weight loss is a pleasant “side effect” of this process.

Fasting strengthens the immune system, detoxifies the body, and reduces acidity. The greatest benefit for those who fast—regardless of their motivation—is the stimulation of the body’s innate healing powers. Typically, one-third of the body’s immune energy is already consumed by the process of digestion. During fasting, this third is fully available to the body for regeneration.
Connective tissue becomes less congested, the skin becomes smoother, hair becomes stronger, and all senses—such as sight, hearing, and smell—become more acute. Many people also view fasting as a catalyst for initiating changes in their lives.
The Gerod Fasting Days offer, among other things, daily BenefitYoga®, meditation, hiking, and a festive breaking of the fast.
