Why DetoxificationIn our daily life we collect toxins and poisons. We breathe them, Drink and Eat them, Hear and think them. Modern life surrounds us, with its advantages and drawbacks: The air we breathe is contaminated and polluted, our food and beverages are processed and adulterated, we are exposed to radiation from all around us, and Stress leaves its mark on every inch of our spirit and body.
Although our body knows how to dispose of toxins spontaneously on a regular basis, it sometimes cannot cope with all that is accumulated. A detoxification retreat is the ideal time to allow and aid us to go into a deeper cleansing. In our Detox retreat we take over control on the incoming and outgoing of our bodies, by nourishing our body only with fresh, organic vegetables and fruits, rich in potent Antioxidants, Nutrients, Vitamins and Minerals, and aiding the process through cleansing techniques, adopted from Ancient and sage Cultures, applied both to our Body and Mind.Besides supplying our body with Raw green nutrition, we will help the process with various available healing techniques from Traditional Chinese Medicine (Acupuncture, Moxibustion, Cupping, Gua-Sha), undergoing a Sweat-Lodge ceremony, and practicing guided Yoga and Meditation, techniques known for their ability to guide energies and fluids within our body, thus helping it to dispose of toxins and poisons, soothing and calming both body and mind.While staying with us you are encouraged to rest, as an important aid to the detoxification process, not neglecting calm walks in the beautiful nature that surrounds us.
