- Navratri is staring on Saturday and many ppl will be fasting or feasting.
- Fasting creates space in the body and so changes energy. When season is changing, it’s a good time to fast. Navratri is a perfect time to fast since from summer we are entering into fall and getting ready for winter. Spring is a good time too.
- I fasted last year for the first time and had a very good result. Am fasting again this year. Thought would share what i did and hope it will be useful for readers.
- So what did i eat? Fruits, milk, home made yogurt, nuts(salt less) all day. And for dinner i had potato cooked with cumin seeds and rock salt (sindhov salt) with Rajgira bhakari and yogurt.
- 1 day i made samo rice and had with yogurt.
- No salt all day and dinner you can have little bit rock salt. Have 1 vegetable of your choice. Potato or anything u like. I didn’t use any spices except cumin seeds.
- After 1st day, i had salty taste in my mouth and so i hardly used any rock salt there after. Body was going thro detox.
- I survived for 5 days and it was wonderful. I can’t wait to start.
- I may post my dinner recipes this year. Whatever you do, keep it simple.
- Happy Navratri !
Having rice(grains) during fasting is not recommended though it’s an individual choice. It’s considered as good as breaking the fast.
Samo rice is not rice and it’s not a grain. I guess english name given to it is confusing.
