Dry Fasting... Again

Yesterday was my first weekly fast day as a dry fast day. I had originally thought I wouldn't fast this Friday because I just ended my 12-day fast on Wednesday, so I figured I would wait until next week. In the end, I decided there was no time like the present, and I dry-fasted yesterday.

It was slightly different to do it away from the extended fast; I felt thirsty towards the end of the day; nothing super intense, yet enough to notice. I can definitely tell that a 24-hour dry fast is a lot more cleansing than a 24-hour water fast. I'm not saying it's better (I think all types of fasting bring different things to the table; it really depends on what one wants to get out of it), but the effects are more noticeable.

I felt light and spacious upon waking up, and very hungry this morning; it felt like a strong hunger from deep within. Breakfast was amazing this morning.

So, here we are; weekly fast day will be a dry fast day from now on.
