Socrates, a Zen Teacher
Since her 30s, Nanato has been conducting fasting regularly in her own way. Her style of the fasting is a mild fast that consumes water and fruits, or enzyme water. It all started with Dan Millman’s book Peaceful Warrior. In this story, Dan is fasted by Socrates’s help. Socrates is a Zen Teacher supposedly. Dan spent seven days with only water-diluted apple juice and water, after fasting clarity and body changes are depicted in the book made Nanato eager to try fasting. So she started by herself time to time. When she fell into autistic situations with sudden deafness and Insomnia, she wondered if she would try fasting instead of Western medicine.
