Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
On November 1st 2008 i will be attempting a 40 day water-only fast. Yes that's right i am totally crazy! Believe it or not 2 years ago on the 10th May i completed my first 40 day fast by eating the tastiest mango ever tasted in the mouth of man! I lost 40 pounds in 40 days as well as untold amounts of toxins and psycho-energetic "entities". I also gained a completely new perspective on food and eating as well as a number of insights into desire, craving, emptiness and energy!
I honestly never thought i do it again, but it seems my inner guidance has decided otherwise. Last time i was guided on my journey by the yoga teaching, prana inhaling, meditation adept known as Anna Mendham and without her wisdom and support i (who had never previously completed even a one day fast) would certainly never have made it. This time there will be no anna...and i'm scared stiff. Commited, but scared because unlike last time i know what i'm in for...a true test of will, faith, nerve and guts (literally) ! But i reckon if its good enough for Abraham Lincoln, Gandhi, Jesus & John Lennon...then its good enough for me.
I have chosen to support the Cambodia trust, because earlier on this year i lost my leg due to a diving accident and after hearing stories about the plight of mine victims and amputees in cambodia, i was reminded how lucky i am to have the National Health Service as well as family & friends who didn't think i'd been cursed by demons just because i'd lost a limb! Disabled people far worse off than me only really have the Cambodia Trust. So its a charity close to my heart (and knee;-) and its focus on using its funds to buy artificial limbs means a little of your money goes a long way in helping to create a massive improvement in the life of thebeneficiary.
So if you think a 40 day fast is a big enough challenge please sponsor me for a daily amount of 50p...£1... or more!
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cambodia Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor me now!
Yours starvingly
