Inspiration for the Bahai Fast

Inspiration for the Bahai Fast

The Baha’i fasting period is a time for slowing down and reflecting on life and connecting with the spirit.  It is my favorite time of year. Many friends have shared that they have been listening to my album ‘Meditations for the Fast’ and I am grateful for all the kind and encouraging words I have received.
