Change starts with ourselves
The basic 30-day Gandhi challenge is straightforward: abstain from intoxicants for 30 days, with two 24-hour fasts. Sobriety promotes nonviolence; inTOXICants are literally poison. Fasting promotes self-control and harnesses the moral power of self-sacrifice.
These practices are part of many healthy lifestyles. Additional, stackable challenges such as walking, additional fasting, and meatless diets are offered as other ways for people step outside of their comfort zone and challenge themselves for 30 days.
The next 30-day Gandhi challenge begins January 1; sign up and receive the Zoom invitation for regular discussions on the 1st and 15th of each month.
