Praying on Lemonade

Some friends and I have decided to try a fasting diet next week. I was hoping to get to a new level in my prayer life by adding fasting. Our conversation turned to this kind of fast because of the worry about hypoglycemia. Now, I am not a fan of detoxification diets. However, I would like to try this one. I will still be able to get some calories as well as fast from solid foods. I will also turn my focus from food and busyness to God and my prayer life in meditation and yoga. I will journal how I do, both for myself as others in the group can help keep me accountable as well as for those of you curious about this journey I will take.
