Anxiety Prayer Catholic

What do you think of this type of fast?
My Catholic friends liked this poem and I thought I would share it with all of you.
HOW TO FAST
Fast from judging others;
Feast on Christ dwelling in them.
Fast from apparent darkness;
Feast on the reality of light.
Fast from pessimism;
Feast on optimism.
Fast from thoughts of illness;
Feast on the healing power of God.
Fast from words that pollute;
Feast on phrases that purify.
Fast from anger;
Feast on patience.
Fast from worry;
Feast on Divine Providence.
Fast from unrelenting pressure;
Feast on unceasing prayer.
Fast from negatives;
Feast on positives.
Fast from complaining;
Feast on appreciation.
Fast from hostility;
Feast on non-resistance.
Fast from bitterness;
Feast on forgiveness.
Fast from anxiety;
Feast on hope.
Fast from yourself;
Feast on a silent heart.

Excellent advice. I would also recommend fasting on bread and water, as Mary requested at Medjugorje.
God bless!
