Surviving 40 Days Without Food | Ep 018

Gurus & Game Changers

Dec 30 2023 • 1 hr 21 mins

Can you imagine pushing the limits of human endurance and transforming your life with nothing but water for 40 days? Shaun Ziegler did just that, diving deep into the physical and mental realms of possibility. With nothing but the ocean's natural electrolytes to sustain him, Shaun's story isn't just one of survival but of profound growth and introspection. His journey through 40 days of water fasting, complemented by meditative practices and the powerful impact of theta breath work, illuminates the uncharted territories of the human spirit and the importance of confronting inner issues for emotional freedom.

Join us as we traverse Shaun's odyssey back to the essence of living, where tuning into one's intuition becomes the compass for navigating life's tumultuous waters. From the heart-wrenching moments of a friend's health emergency to the celebrated triumphs over psychological urges to eat, Shaun's fast is a tapestry woven with discipline, resilience, and a deepened connection with the subconscious mind. His narrative challenges the norms and invites you to consider the profound insights that can arise from looking within rather than outwardly to conventional research and societal expectations. As we wrap up, Shaun's 'reborn ritual' on the 41st day, which includes a symbolic breaking of the fast with raw organic milk, honey, and cacao, sets a stage for reflection on our own dietary habits and the emotional attachments we have with food. On the 42nd day after having two full days of meals he had an epiphany that you will want to hear about. Shaun's intuitive post-fast approach, defying traditional dietary boundaries, questions not only what we eat but why we eat it. Prepare to be intrigued, inspired, and potentially transformed as we share the riveting account of a man who turned a 40-day water fast into a journey of self-discovery and perpetual growth.
