Our 3 day detox diet is based on eating a whole grain and fresh/organic vegetable diet with a protein option. During the detox avoidance of sugar, refined foods, caffeine, tobacco, and alcohol aids the body in eliminating toxins. Our Yoga will focus on cleansing postures and lymphatic massage, as well as setting intentions and awakening our life force. Our program will begin @ 7:30pm on Thursday, April 3rd, with a discussion and a gentle yoga class (no yoga experience is necessary). Our Detox Diet begins on Friday morning, ending on Monday morning with breakfast. We will meet again on Saturday afternoon @ 1:00 to share our experiences and to offer support. Then we will experience restorative yoga to support our mind, body and spirit in our cleansing journey. Invite your family and friends to join you on this journey!
