Hellenistic fasting rituals would typically involve fasting from dawn until sunset. During the fast, participants would avoid consuming any food, only drinking water.

In Hellenistic times, fasting was a common practice in peoples' lives, and was believed to have a number of practical and spiritual benefits such as improving physical performance, self-discipline, mental acuity, and spiritual insight.

Of course, make sure you consult your physician before beginning any new fasting routine to ensure that it is suitable for you.
