This is the video diary of my three-day water fast. This was a horrendous experience and a huge psychological and emotional challenge. Over the course of the three days, I consumed no food or liquids other than water. I used an occasional bit of salt and an effervescent electrolyte tab which had no calories.
It was an incredible experience with spiritual highlights and a wonderful sense of achievement when completed. I cover the key areas of Autophagy for which Yoshinori Ohsumi won the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Humans have been fasting for thousands of years, but it is only in the last 10-15 years that Western science has started to take notice of the health benefits.
Unfortunately, the research on “prolonged fasting” in humans is pretty sparse. But many fasting experts, including my former professor Dr Valter Longo, recommend it 1-2 times a year for overall health.
Here are 8 health benefits of fasting — following the science.
1. Improves Blood Sugar Control by Reducing Insulin Resistance
2. Better Health by Fighting Inflammation
3. Can Enhance Heart Health by Improving Blood Pressure, Triglycerides and Cholesterol Levels
4. Can Boost Brain Function and Prevent Neurodegenerative Disorders
5. Aids Weight Loss by Limiting Calorie Intake and Boosting Metabolism
6. Increases Growth Hormone Secretion, Which Is Vital for Growth, Metabolism, Weight Loss and Muscle Strength
7. Can Delay Aging and Extend Longevity
8. Can Aid in Cancer Prevention and Increase the Effectiveness of Chemotherapy
Disclaimer – fasting is not for everyone. Talk to your doctor before beginning a fast. Fasting for 7 days or more should be medically supervised. If your only goal is weight loss, I personally believe there are better, more sustainable options.
This is a morning routine focused on the neck and the mind. Poor posture has been proven to impact your vagus nerve, vagal tone and in turn, your mental health. This daily routine will address your physical and mental state before you start your day.

As someone who recovered from the severe trauma of losing my son, I know the importance of finding some ease within the body. I witnessed Joshua's last breaths and this image aroused PTSD and severe anxiety and depression.
Accessing the Vagus Nerve and Polyvagal Theory was critical in my recovery. It allowed me the capacity to find a little ease whilst in tandem I built a meditation practice and sought therapy.
Recovery from whatever loss or stress you have suffered is possible. It does require a desire to do the work, and a commitment to show up. Remember to seek help, speak to friends and find a therapist or coach that is right for you.
Hope & Love, Justin.
