Loren Lockman, a seasoned educator and fasting coach, joins the show to explain the practice of water-only fasting as a way to access the body’s innate intelligence and capacity for deep healing beyond traditional weight loss. Discussion points include the limitations of conventional "sick care," the importance of reconnecting with nature and our own bodies' needs, and the transformational effects that intentional fasting can bring—not only physically, but also emotionally and spiritually. This conversation invites you to reflect on self-care, question mainstream health narratives, and embrace practices that foster true vitality from the inside out.
