“Usually I would never do a fast, because I live a healthy lifestyle, BUT now at 45, the middle age middle is a real thing. I was starting to gain weight in my waist and look square. My waist went from my normal 27 inches to 33 inches.

I am pretty disciplined in my healthy lifestyle but I knew my metabolism was slowing down due to age. My skin texture on my face went from oily to dry. My supple hydrated thick skin on my body started showing signs of thinning and a loss of collagen. I had cellulite on my calves and my triceps due to my thinning skin. I knew I had to do something.

We can’t postpone aging, but we can try preventive things as we go through life. I have been into anti-aging for the past 10 years and decided to read the book The Longevity Diet about fasting for anti-aging and it peaked my curiosity.

Have you heard this saying before:

If you are depressed, you are living in the past.

If you are anxious, you are living in the future.

If you are unsure as to how to get more into the present, meditation is a great tool. Not sure where to start with meditation? Lettuce break meditation down for you in our Zen Commandments:

1. KISS. Keep it Simple Sweetheart. Most of us spend way too much time ruminating about the past, worrying about the future, and/or reacting to the present.

Mindfulness is like a happy hour you can access anytime of the day – and it will never leave you with a hangover.
2. Carp Diem. This means seize the day. There's no better way to get grounded than...
