Are you on a healing journey, facing a chronic health condition, or simply looking for a powerful way to reset your body and mind? In this episode of the Second Wind podcast, Judy Marie Trimbur shares a deeply personal and powerful experience with a 72-hour water fast.
Judy Marie explains how this ancient practice, now backed by science, activates the body's natural repair mechanisms, including autophagy—the process of recycling damaged cells. While emphasizing that this is not medical advice, she openly shares how she used this practice to support her own body after an incurable cancer diagnosis.
In this episode, you will learn:
What a 72-hour water fast is: A detailed explanation of the practice and its benefits.
The critical importance of preparation: Why a successful fast begins one to two weeks before you start, including how to transition your body by eliminating sugar and refined carbs.
What to expect during the fast: The physical and emotional shifts that occur, from entering ketosis and losing weight to processing buried emotions.
The spiritual dimension of fasting: How emptying the body can create space for deeper intuition, clarity, and connection to your soul.
How to safely break your fast: The crucial steps to reintroduce food gently and continue the healing process.
This episode is a profound testament to the body's innate power to heal. It's an invitation to treat your body with reverence and love, to listen to its wisdom, and to remember that you are not just surviving—you are transforming.
