When physical symptoms make spiritual fasting feel unsafe

I've been fasting monthly for spiritual clarity but last month I fainted at work and now I'm scared to continue but also scared that stopping means I'm giving up on my spiritual growth.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The fear that physical limitations will impede spiritual progress can override necessary attention to bodily wisdom and safety.
