Juice and Detox Retreat in North Yorkshire

At the end of April I was invited to a friend's log cabin in North Yorkshire for a mini break.  Jen is a Nutritional therapist too so I suggested we use the space for juicing and detoxing retreat.  The Champion juicer went for a mini break too!  These kind of detoxes are so much easier if you have the physical, mental and emotional space for them.  Even better if you are able to be away in a nurturing green environment with none of the everyday stresses and rat race around you. 


We both prepared by eating an alkalising diet before hand but especially for the two days before and then the two days after our retreat.  Naturopathic techniques were used throughout the time period to support the cleanse taking place.  Jen accessed the delicious organic vegetables from a local supplier she knew of, so we had a different juice at each "meal" using carrot as a base each time.  Scrumptious! 


Meanwhile the high energy provided by the appetising juices and lack of cooking needed left huggins of time to roam the glorious countryside surrounding us.  Up hill and down dale, enjoying fantastic views and wild flower spotting combined with deer, squirrel, unnusual insects and other wildlife crossing our path from time to time.  As for the rabbits around the cabin they were like another form of traffic going past there were so many of them, no fear whatsoever!


Returned home feeling totally recharged and ready for the world and with a "carrot juice" tan so looked as if I had been for a really good break!!  The Look After You Juice Detox Retreat in Central Brittany - July 6th-9th 2010, has limited places available, if that's of interest let me know.
