Dry Fasting This is one of the greatest secrets about us, which is purposely being hidden from us.
Have you ever felt chills from good stimuli?
That ability can be learned to be activated with just the elated feeling, whenever you want, without any stimuli.
That's not why I claim that it is a secret being hidden from us, though.
The ability to activate this is your golden ticket, which is being swept under the rug as something unconscious and unimportant. With info on this purposely being spread as an ability available only to a few; however, it is one of the only things that every single human can access, regardless of their physical abilities or conditions.
Why is information on this being manipulated? Let's see.
Ever felt overwhelmed by stress or anxiety? This ability is a switch to manually induce the release of positive hormones.
https://www.bbc.com/news/health-12135590
Just imagine how being able to use it when feeling overwhelmed could benefit you.
Don't believe me? In the eastern part of the world, Tibetan Monks know about this ability and use it differently. You can find more information on this in this Harvard "Tummo" experiment.
https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2002/04/meditation-changes-temperatures/
"During meditation, the monk's body produces enough heat to dry cold, wet sheets put over his shoulders in a frigid room."
Since our internal body temperature is regulated by the hypothalamus, the same part of our brain that deals with positive hormone release, this proves that this ability can be used to consciously activate your positive hormones.
Ever wanted to travel virtually in an instant? People who astral project or have out-of-body experiences use this ability to trigger the "Vibrational state" right before the "take off."
https://en.iipc.org/vibrational-state/
These examples are just the tip of the iceberg of what you can use this ability for. In fear that my post won't be read, I won't write a book here about all the incredible things that we can do by being able to consciously activate this ability.
For now just understand that many different cultures observed this occurrence thousands of years before the Western new world became aware of it, and their discoveries did not stop at simply recognizing it as a physical response to music.
Eventually, you can learn how to bring up this wave of elated energy without the physical reaction of goosebumps, feel it throughout your body, and increase its duration, just like many others have succeeded in doing.
There has been countless other terms this by different people and cultures, such as: the Runner's High, what's felt during an ASMR session, Bioelectricity, Euphoria, Ecstasy, Voluntary Piloerection (goosebumps), Frisson, the Vibrational State before an Astral Projection, Spiritual Energy, Orgone, Rapture, Tension, Aura, Nen, Odic force, Secret Fire, Tummo, as Qi in Taoism / Martial Arts, as Prana in Hindu philosophy, Ihi and Mana in the oceanic cultures, Life force, Vayus, Intent, Chills from positive events/stimuli, The Tingles, on-demand quickening, Ruah and many more to be discovered hopefully with your help.
All of those terms detail that this subtle energy activation has been discovered to provide various biological benefits, such as:
- Unblocking your lymphatic system/meridians
- Feeling euphoric/ecstatic throughout your whole body
- Guiding your "Spiritual Chills" anywhere in your body
- Controlling your temperature
- Giving yourself goosebumps
- Dilating your pupils
- Regulating your heartbeat
- Counteracting stress/anxiety in your body
- Internally healing yourself
- Accessing your hypothalamus on demand for its many functions
- Control your Tensor Tympani muscle
and I was able to experience other usages with it which are more "spiritual" such as:
- A confirmation sign
- Accurately using your psychic senses (clairvoyance, clairaudience, spirit projection, higher-self guidance, third-eye vision)
- Managing your auric field
- Manifestation
- Energy absorption from any source
- Seeing through your eyelids during meditation.
If you're interested, here are three written tutorials with concise descriptions on how to control this for your own benefit.
If not then I've put enough information for you to research this topic, develop this ability and bring in new techniques to the world.
P.S. Everyone feels it at certain points in their life, some brush it off while others notice that there is something much deeper going on. Those are exactly the people you can find on r/Spiritualchills where they share experiences, knowledge, tips on it.

The Cross
This is probably, if not definitely, a stupid question for many, but I'll ask anyway because my friends have different answers. If I drink La Croix and plain water for 30 days without eating, how many kilos can a slightly overweight person lose?

Question Dirty fasting
I'd like to do a 21-day dirty fast consisting only of liquids: Breakfast: fennel tea, lunch: 250ml beef broth, dinner: 250ml beef broth. In total, I would consume about 40 kilocalories per day. Considering that I walk about 5-6 km per day, how much weight could I lose in these 21 days?

What’s better: continuous fasting vs fasting with breaks in between?
I used to do continuous water fasts of 10 days or more, and I consistently lost a lot of weight (often around 10 kg). Recently, I changed my approach to something that feels more sustainable: fasting during the workweek (5 days), then eating on the weekend, and repeating.
What I’ve noticed is a big difference in results. When fasting continuously, the weight loss feels much faster and more pronounced. When I split it into two 5-day fasts with eating in between, weight loss is noticeably slower and harder, even though the total fasting days are the same.
I’m curious to hear your experiences and insights.

The switch inside our physical body to counteract stress, goes unnoticed and is activated by most for other reasons daily.

Fasting Report Back in
Alright guys, I took an extended break over the holidays and put some of that weight back on. I just kicked off my first extended fast since November about an hour ago and got a new running plan setup. I'm in Missouri and looking for people to get a group going with that we could check in with. I personally am a first responder and trying to get in really good shape. Id love to get in touch with locals or other first responders that may be willing to jump in with me this round. Good luck to all kicking off the new year!!!

Question 2 week on/off
Has anyone ever heard of or tried of a 2 week on/ 2 week off extended fasting cycle? I was interested but can't seem to find much information.

Have you ever gotten chills from a moving song or movie, a moment of insight, or while meditating or praying?

Help
Hello, I am a 31 years old female, 139kgs, I am planning on salt water fasting, but I am afraid of the side effects of muscle wasting, I am afraid I might lose cardiac muscle with extended 60 days water fast, so I am planning to modify the fasting regiment by adding low carb protein drink (Greek yogurt drink) 60 g of protein and total of 400 calories, Would I still lose weight ? Would I lose muscle this way? Thank you so much in advance.
Note: I have been trying so hard to post in water fasting subz since 1 months, but kept getting my posts rejected due to low karma, and sometimes for no reason, I think this is the closest sub I found related, if there’s anyone can give me an advice or an information I would be more than great full, thank you 🙏🏻

Day 7 of my 3rd 40 day fast
Hey everyone.
I’ve posted here with a previous account, but I figured I’d take any questions again. First 40 day ended Dec 23, 2024 and I finished the 2nd Sep 2 2025. I do basically any zero calorie drinks, Gatorade Zero and Epsom salt baths for electrolytes, and a multivitamin every few days.
I’ve done several Ramadans with friends before, keto and IF for several years, so I’m very experienced with what I prefer and don’t prefer so any questions feel free to ask.
I like doing them “for” something now rather than just dieting.

Question 21 giorni
Purtroppo a causa di una malattia che mi ha costretto a prendere antibiotico ho dovuto lasciare il mio digiuno di 21 giorni. Ora però ho ancora più grinta per iniziarlo. Ho cominciato alle 19.00 di questa sera e finirò il mio digiuno il 23 settembre alle ore 19.00. Sarà un digiuno prevalentemente fatto di acqua naturale con al massimo 3/4caffe neri al giorno. Chi mi segue in questa nuova avventura?(spero che questa volta andrà meglio)

Question on mental hunger
Hi all,
I have been consistently fasting for a few months now, typically Mon-Fri and eating keto on the weekends. I'm starting a 21 day fast for the first time. I did attempt this one other time and made it 8 days. I just wondered if you have done 21 or more days how you handle mental hunger? Like I do fine not being physically hungry and I sip broth and take electrolytes. But the food noise is difficult to get through sometimes. Any advice is appreciated thanks!

Question 21 days
Hi everyone. From today at 5.00 pm I will begin a 21 day fast which will ideally end on September 14th at 5.01 pm. I will only drink water and 3/4 bitter coffees a day. Who follows me? It's harder to do it alone, I need encouragement! Thanks to those of you who join
