In fact, Sandra would say: mental emotional and spiritual health is all one and the same, and dis-ease or disturbance in any of these levels can cause physical pains and symptoms in the body too. A mind body spirit detox retreat could therefore be a new way for helping people with mental health and healing. en_EN Sat, 03 Jul 2010 19:34:24 +0100 https://healingretreats.goe.ac/news/thai_yoga_massage.htm https://healingretreats.goe.ac/news/thai_yoga_massage.htm Traditional Thai Yoga Massage is an ancient healing art, which has been handed down from teacher to pupil since the third century BC. Thai Massage works on an energy line system (the Ten Sen) through which the body's natural life force flows. Blockages in this life force cause aches, pains and disease. en_EN Sat, 03 Jul 2010 18:47:02 +0100 https://healingretreats.goe.ac/news/yoga_and_meditation.htm https://healingretreats.goe.ac/news/yoga_and_meditation.htm The yoga teacher on our healing and detox retreats is Jyoti Jo (Jo Hogarty) who teaches Ashtanga yoga and a range of Meditation techniques.

Enzymes are found in raw food, but are destroyed in cooking. Cooked food therefore requires the body’s enzymes to digest it, which can take up to 70% of our energy. Going raw means the enzymes which are both the life force and the digestive power are still in the food and can assist in digestion. This makes much more energy available to the body for other process such as living, cleansing and repair. A raw diet is a healthy low calorie diet so a healthy way to lose excess weight. en_EN Fri, 02 Jul 2010 12:21:57 +0100 https://healingretreats.goe.ac/news/what_is_natural_healing.htm https://healingretreats.goe.ac/news/what_is_natural_healing.htm At our healing retreats the focus is on natural healing. Natural Healing is about stimulating and supporting the body's own healing and repair abilities. Recognising that blockage and poor nutrition is the main cause of disease we aim simply to restore flow and start putting the right fuel into the system. The body can then start to heal itself. So let's take a closer look at those factors effecting our overall health, the causes of disease, and our approach to restoring health naturally. en_EN
