Give Yourself a New Years Gift by Joining a Juice Cleanse Retreat
Via | Ramesh Bjonnes | November, 21, 2023
Starting the new year with a juice cleanse is a great way to improve your overall health and hit
the reset button on building better eating and exercise habits in the new year. Her are some of the
benefits of a juice cleanse:
• Improve cellular repair, hormone production, and gene expression
• Promote weight loss, specifically fat loss
• Reduce insulin resistance and Type 2 Diabetes
• Prevent inflammation and oxidative stress
• Enhance cardiovascular health and circulation
• Boost brain health
Much More Than Just Another Juice Fasting Retreat
Some people find it tough to juice alone. Therefore, it can be very helpful to practice juicing with
others at a retreat. Even better when you combine it with yoga and meditation classes. At a
Prama retreat, you will also learn a lot about nutrition, fasting, and overall health practices you
can easily do at home. Here are some of the benefits of going on a juice cleanse retreat at Prama:
1. You are surrounded by a group of people with the same intention and that makes cleansing so much easier.
2. You have experienced guides to help you in case you go through detox symptoms such as constipation or lethargy.
3. You will have workshops every day learning about healing herbs, basic Ayurvedic and naturopathic lifestyle practices, and much more.
4. You will learn additional, up-to-date tips about nutrition and alkaline foods that will dispel much mis-and disinformation about healthy living.
5. You will practice yoga and meditation with others every day, which will relax your mind and ease your heart and increase the detox benefits.
6. Your skin will detox in the sauna and in the hot tub.
7. The peaceful setting and beautiful surroundings are ideal for a time away from all the stresses of the world.
8. Our group support circles create a safe environment to share challenges and to get constructive feedback.
9. In the private sessions with our staff, you will learn about what is best to eat according to your body type once your cleansing is over.
10. Most importantly, you will have a lot of fun and create lasting friendships.
Everyone deserves to start the New Year with better health and more inspiration. Please join us
on January 10-14 or February 7-11. We promise you will not regret it!

CCF Tea: Ayurvedic Tea for Gut Health
Occasionally, a guest arrives at the Prama Institute and Wellness Center, convinced that “real” fasting means water only. Nothing but water, for a week or more, and the deeper the deprivation, the deeper the healing. It is an appealing story. The research, however, points to a gentler way of fasting—one we have practiced for years.

Water Fasting vs. Juice Fasting: What 1,422 People Taught Us

Food and Fasting for Healing and Health
If the body naturally detoxes every day, even while we sleep, why is it still important to detox with a juice cleanse or alkaline superfoods? Because the food we eat is not always healthy or alkaline; it may contain too much acid-producing processed flour, sugar, animal fat, and dairy. When we overeat, too many toxins are left in the body. Stress is another reason; too much work and too little sleep will create imbalances in the body’s digestive ecology.
