TASTE AND SEE - The Dormition Fast with St. Hildegard

August 1–14, 2026

“Taste and see that the Lord is good.” - Psalm 34:8

From bitterness to generous love

Not all bitterness is chosen. It may begin with grief, betrayal, injustice, disappointment, or a wound that has never been fully released. You may have forgiven and still feel something tighten when the memory returns. The wound may explain the bitterness. It does not have to govern your future.

TASTE AND SEE is a fourteen-day journey through the Dormition Fast, integrating St. Hildegard’s wisdom, bitter foods and herbs, prayer, fasting, the Magnificat, and the restoration of the whole person: body, soul, and spirit.

We will move from amaritudo, the vice of bitterness, toward largitas, generosity, abundance, and largeness of soul.

Not by pretending the wound did not matter.

Not by forcing reconciliation.

Not by calling evil good.

But by refusing to allow what happened to continue shrinking the soul.

Bitters for the body. The Magnificat for the soul.

Generous love for the life ahead.

During the fourteen days, you will receive:

📺 14 short daily videos

Five- to ten-minute teachings integrating St. Hildegard, Christian fasting, bitter taste, emotional healing, forgiveness, boundaries, and the Dormition of Mary.

🙏 Daily prayer and reflection

Scripture, Lectio Divina, Magnificat meditations, reflection questions, and a practical daily practice.

🌿 Bitters and fasting guide

Guidance for using bitter foods and optional herbs, simple fasting meals, teas, recipes, and modifications for different health needs.

💻 One live session on Aug 1st 8 am PST/11am EST

An opening orientation with prayer, and Q&A.

🤝 Private community on WhatsApp

Fast alongside others, ask questions, share reflections, and receive encouragement throughout the fourteen days.

TASTE AND SEE is an educational and spiritual-formation program. It does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment and does not create a practitioner–client relationship. Consult your healthcare practitioner before fasting or using herbs if you have a health condition, take medication, or are pregnant or nursing.
