Spring Cleanse, Detox, and Juice Fast
Manu Dawson
Registration is closed for this course.
Tuition: $705
Cleanse and rejuvenate, invigorate your natural body wisdom, and establish new habits. This intensive program initiates transformation on the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. We begin gradually with a few days of raw food, followed by fruit and vegetable juice fasting, and end with a raw food diet — all supported by detoxifying herbs and supplements. Yoga classes and beach walks will enhance digestion, elimination, and integration for optimum cleansing and health. Nutritional consultations are also available.
Benefits of this program include:
- All organ systems of the body become cleansed
- Relieve congestion in the body and improve eliminative functions
- Balance digestion
- Increase absorption of nutrients
- Aid in weight reduction
- Relieve fatigue and re-energize the body and mind
- Reduce skin problems and ease pain and inflammation.
Please note This course is open to all; however, you must complete an online Detox Fasting Application prior to registering. If you have a severe chronic condition or are on medication, please consult your health-care practitioner.
Please note Participants are required to stay at the ashram for the length of the cleanse.
Please pack only natural, chemical-free body-care products for use during this program.
We highly recommend extending your stay to join the yoga vacation program, Detox Basics: Cleanse at Home so you can learn to detox in the comfort of your own home.
