Drawing a parallel between fasting from all the voices in 2020 and the main point of this book, fasting from wrong thinking and speaking. You're in for a real treat. Michelle Gines makes it clear that the things you say to yourself or other people, can really impact your life and there's. So, be intentional about it. Don't Say That is a handy little walk thru those crazy conversations in the mind and the alternative.
Typically you think of fasting for spiritual purposes, but this fast goes beyond the spirit into your practical lifestyle. Put together in clear, concise fashion - this an all-day, everyday fast. It's in your best interest to fast from all the negative self-talk, phrases and isms we find ourselves saying somewhat subconsciously and then we're left with lives that look just like what we said. Rather, take a breath and see how this self-help challenge will revitalize what comes up and changes what comes out.
Thoughts and language are important. How are you tending to yours? People can so easily fall into patterns of thought that, at best stunt our own development and at worse lead to depression, anxiety, and a litany of other mental disorders. Mental disorders are a two-way street between behavior and action; behaviors or thoughts that are the symptoms of depression can themselves lead toward depression when acted on. I'm not a doctor but suffice it to say that I've seen enough of my friends and family suffer at the hand of themselves just by the way they think and speak. It's time to fast.
