Stress doesn’t just live in your mind — it settles into your body. Tight shoulders, clenched jaws, shallow breaths — these are signs that emotions have taken physical form. During fasting, your awareness heightens, giving you the perfect opportunity to release what your body has been quietly holding.
As your cells clean themselves through autophagy, you can mirror that process emotionally. With every exhale, tension softens. With every moment of stillness, your body learns to let go.
The more you release, the lighter your energy becomes — and the more space you create for healing, focus, and peace.
- Good to Know
Stress hormones like cortisol can block autophagy. Deep relaxation and mindful breathing lower cortisol levels, allowing your body’s cellular repair process to work more efficiently.
