Happy AMEN day ,
Right now, as this email reaches you, we’re heading north and trading sunshine for cold weather. I’m already missing those beach bike rides and the sand dollars scattered like little surprises along the tide. With
February knocking, I’m curious—what’s something you’re looking forward to this month?
You know, a lot of people kicked off January with big goals, but really… every day gives us a fresh chance to decide what we believe, how we live, and what we put on our plate.
So if you hoped to start the Daniel Fast this year but kept postponing it—or waited for someone to join you—this is your moment.
Today is the day to begin.
And
whether you’re just getting started or you’re already in it but standing at the pantry thinking, “Wait… what exactly can I eat?”—I’ve got you.
I know that transitioning to a plant-based fast can feel a bit overwhelming at first. It’s easy to get stuck in a cycle of eating the same three things, which is why I wanted to share some of my favorite insights and "hacks" for making this experience both physically healing and spiritually uplifting.
I’m
breaking down the essentials to help you succeed, including:
- The Bread Secret: How to make delicious, Daniel Fast-approved bread without honey or eggs (and the one simple ingredient that keeps it from falling apart).
- Fruit Pitfalls: Why your "healthy" dried fruit might actually be sabotaging your progress and triggering cravings.
- Flavor Boosters: My go-to seasonings and flavorings—like Bragg’s Liquid
Aminos—that make stir-fries and roasted veggies taste amazing without breaking the fast.
- The "Peanut" Debate: Why I recommend swapping out peanuts for other nuts to maximize your health benefits over these 21 days.
Fasting shouldn't feel like a chore; it’s an opportunity to experience amazing healing in your body and gut. Whether you’re looking for new recipe ideas or just need a refresher on what to avoid, this guide will give you the confidence
to keep going.
