To make your retreat experience as pleasant as possible, it is advisable to abstain from alcohol for a few days before your retreat, and at the very least the day before. If possible eliminating sugary and processed food is also advisable.

​

Pack comfortable clothing, a good book if you like to read and a bathing suit if you would like to have a swim in the ocean.

​

Otherwise everything you need will be provided!

Your accommodation will be available from 2pm on so feel free to turn up any time after 2pm. You will receive an address and directions from us upon paying your deposit.  Thursday afternoon can be spent relaxing, going to the beach and or wondering around the pleasant village of Sumner. You may decide to start your fast on Thursday, if so you may start using your supplements if so desired.

​

The retreat will officially start off in the evening at 6pm with a group meditation and orientation.

​

​

 

​

A special electrolyte mix will be prepared to add to your water and to be consumed at your leisure. There will also be supplement schedule including activated charcoal to mop up toxins from the digestive tract along with magnesium to help you relax and sleep well.  All will be provided.

 

Friday Yoga session begins around 8 am at the Retreat House.

 

Treatments begin after 9 am in pairs. While one person is getting a coffee colonic, the other receives a  Zero Balancing body work and then they switch over. 

 

The coffee colonic is important as it helps empty the bowel of waste making the fasting process more pleasant as the body does not have to deal with toxicity from the colon. The coffee retention half way through the colonic further supports the detoxifying process by supporting the liver. The colonic will also give you a great empty feeling.

​

The Zero Balancing session is great for releasing tension from the bone structure and bringing balance to not only the physical body but the mental and spiritual body as well. People often notice they have more movement in their body after a session and they feel more grounded. Most importantly it feels really good!!

​

Hypnotherapy sessions will be around 3 hours each, two sessions will take place each day so each person will have one session during the retreat.

​

The evening is free to swim, go for a stroll and do as you please.

Again the electrolyte mix with water and supplements are prepared fresh and consumed at leisure.

 

Treatments of colonics and reflexology are again done in pairs.

 

The coffee colonic is important as it helps empty the bowel of waste making the fasting process more pleasant as the body does not have to deal with toxicity from the colon. The coffee retention half way through the colonic further supports the detoxifying process by supporting the liver. The colonic will also give you a great empty feeling.

 

Reflexology addresses the whole body through the holographic points in the feet helping the body further detoxify and strengthen.

 

​

 

​

The retreat is now coming to a close. Sunday will begin with a yoga session at 7am at the Retreat House.

​

Treatments of colonic with probiotic and lymphatic drainage will take place in pairs.

​

The probiotic colonic cleanses the colon and then a probiotic implant is left in the colon at the end of the session to help balance the gut flora at the end of your cleanse.

​

The lymphatic drainage helps release any excess fluid at the end of the fast and release any residue yet needed to be released.

​

You can start using the oral probiotics in the evening to help build new balanced gut flora.

Check out is 11am. You are ready to go home!

​

It is advisable to start with simple cooked food such as vegetable soup. Refrain from fresh foods such as salads as they can be irritating to the colon. Then in the days to come slowly start adding more foods, cooked meats, roasted vegetables and then raw foods.

​

You can continue using the oral probiotics until you run out.

You have now experienced a fast! Congratulations! You now KNOW you can do it. So feel free to utilize the techniques and knowledge you have learned to incorporate fasting into your lifestyle. Whether it is just intermittent fasting every day, or fasting one day a week or even a 4 day fast once a month; you know have the tools to benefit from fasting on your terms.
