Program Description
Our weekend yoga detox retreats are great for those who are new to juice fasting and want to experience the the benefits of the detox process in a relatively short period of time. Â Weekend retreats start Friday night with a yoga class, group meditation and delicious vegetarian meal specifically designed to help start the detox process. Â The detox continues through Saturday with fresh juices, warm vegetable broth, yoga, meditation, nutrition classes and of course plenty of time in our cedar hot tub and endless pool.
This yoga detox program is designed to create better health and relaxation. It is especially designed for those who want to feel more energized, struggle with weight problems, need help kicking bad habits, want to eliminate toxins, or simply wish to feel less stressed. The usual method to achieve better health is to heal various ailments, to focus on what is wrong with us and then treat the symptoms. But in our programs, we build better health by creating an environment where problems and imbalances simply do not thrive.  Together we create a higher frequency of being where optimum health arises naturally. That’s the power of our holistic rejuvenation program. That’s the effectiveness of simply combining juice fasting, yoga therapy, power foods and meditation. This comprehensive program will teach you simple, effective techniques to take charge of your own health.
