Spring begins with all its goodness and beauty, but it also rings the alarm bell as it prepares for the bikini body.
We are not too late to start consciously shaping our bodies, a little weight loss. The arrival of spring can also help with this, as the weather is getting better. The number of hours of sunshine is much longer, it is much clearer and it even affects our mood. And everyone knows what it's like to be in a bad mood. There is a good chance we are postponing and postponing the workout, the movement. We finally find some excuse. However, pleasant weather even makes you feel like moving out of our home.
Easter celebration is approaching. The period before that is the fast held by the faithful of the Catholic Church. During this period, you should only be fed once a day and refrain from meat or other food of animal origin. This was not done by accident and many still do today. For fasting is about disciplining our bodies. That is, it should not be the joy of food and the consumption of food, and it should not be controlled by them, but by our consciousness.
Does fasting seem like an old-fashioned, self-limiting habit of religious people only? In fact, more and more people are realizing how useful it can be. In addition to the plethora of dietary and weight loss methods, fasting also appeared. It is no accident, as it has a good effect on the body, but also on the mind. Periodic fasting means taking occasional and inserting a fasting period of more than 12-24 hours.
Even if we are fasting, it is usually not as hard as it used to be. For if we followed the rules, it would mean eating a meat-free meal once a day in the evening. Some people indulge in coffee, refusing to let go if they are already “afflicting” their body, but others are giving up even a daily black portion.
Fasting is not the whim of modern man at all, as let’s just think about the times when it wasn’t that easy to get food. The lives of our fishing, hunting, collecting ancestors were rock hard. If they had a successful day, they could eat, otherwise they didn’t and that brought with them fasting. Our body is fine-tuned for a lot of movement and fasting anyway, but the modern age has brought with it a comfortable life. As a result, we move much less and eat unreasonably much compared to it.
