‘The cure of the part should not be attempted without the cure of the whole. No attempt should be made to cure the body without the soul, and if the head and body are to be healthy, you must begin by curing the mind. That is the first thing. Let no one persuade you to cure the head until he has first given you his soul to be cured. For this is the great error of our day in the treatment of the human body, that physicians first separate the soul from the body.’ (Plato)
During detox it is common to experience the resurfacing of old memories or feelings which are repressed and stored at a cellular level in the body. This is because as you cleanse the physical body, you also experience a cleansing of the mind, emotions, and entire being simultaneously. Repressed feelings have to go somewhere and often end up being stuffed down, and covered up with "comfort foods" (foods that tend to alter moods, such as sugar, chocolate, coffee, alcohol, fast food, refined foods e.g. biscuits etc.) If this sounds like you!, then during detox old memories and feelings may emerge to be fully experienced at last – and the result is truly healing. It is this ‘cleansing’ at the non physical level that helps our detox clients gain clarity and insight, a sense of being emotionally ‘lighter.’
For some people, Detox is as much a ‘mental break’ as a physical cleanse - a chance to de-clutter their mind and re-establish who they are and where they are in the world. On the detox retreat you will have the time, peace and support to release negative thoughts and emotions which are preventing you from realizing your full potential. We see people looking to deepen the effects of a detox for spiritual purposes – after all, fasting and purification techniques have been used for centuries as aids to spiritual advancement. At Detox International we have a team of deeply committed therapists, guides and counsellors, ensuring you are fully supported in your individual needs. You can take detox to whatever level you wish as we are here to support and guide you.
