Juice Fasting and Detoxification with LAUREN MANNING
May 13 - 19, 2008

Lauren Manning Yoga teacher, natural nutritionist and body worker, Lauren sees juice fasting and detoxification as a tool for body, mind and spirit to re-charge, to heal and as a stepping stone to the cultivation of a healthier life-style. Lauren's fasting experience began whilst serving as staff at the Sivananda Centre in Putney, London in 1998-9, where she facilitated a number of three-day water fasts and kriya (yogic cleansing) workshops.

Since 2001 she has been involved in Moinhos Velhos, a detoxification retreat in Portugal specialising in juice fasting, and since 2003, she has led detoxification retreats in Turkey, Germany and India.

The detox option is a flexible one - you can choose whether to detox for any length of time from 1 day to 7 days - bearing in mind that the longer the detox, the more the benefits...

The detox runs parallel to scheduled yoga retreat, and at meal times, instead of food, you'll be served a delicious and nutritious juice, together with bentonite clay, psyllium husk and herbal supplements - all of which help the detox process. Each day, you'll have 3 juices (each 3/4 litre) and in the evenings, you'll be served a broth - rich with nutrients from a variety of locally grown, seasonal vegetables. Lauren will guide you through step by step, will answer your questions, and is also available for advice and/or body treatments to further assist the cleansing process.

If you choose to break the juice-fast at Yogaturkey, Lauren will ensure that you break it wisely, spending half the amount of time for which you fasted, to return to a normal diet. If you break it on your return home, Lauren will advise on what to eat and what to avoid.

Cost: For each detox day there is a supplement of £15 in addition to the cost of the yoga holiday. The cost of optional treatments with Lauren range in price from £20 - £40.
