Not only is fasting a good way to give your digestive system a break while still getting the nutrients you need through juices and smoothies, but fasting also allows you the chance to reframe your relationship with food. It allows you the chance to turn the lense inward to check-in on if what you're putting in your body is honoring the way you want to live and the way you want to feel.
