We take care that you know exactly how to continuing the ‘breaking the fast’ process over the first 3 days after leaving the detox retreat. It is vitally important that you follow the dietary recommendations we give you once you get home. We can give you the post detox dietary advice in advance so that you can stock up with the right foods for your return!

First time fasters often worry that they will go to the opposite extreme after a fast – and re-tox as quickly as they have de-toxed – maybe even on the return flight home! However, in our experience, not only does your body get rid of unwanted waste and toxic matter during the week, you also let go of old addictions and tastes. That cup of espresso or the bar of chocolate may not taste as good after a fast, simply because your body is more in tune with its natural desires, rather than being a slave to an addiction.

With that in mind, the weeks and even months after Detox are an excellent opportunity to carry through long-desired lifestyle and dietary changes – without nearly so much rebellion from the body and mind. The post-fast ‘high,’ the increase in vitality with a more youthful exuberance (people often comment that they look a good 5 – 10 yrs younger!) can last, but it is much more likely to last if you continue with all that you have learned about nutrition and healthy lifestyle during the detox. week, plus taking time for regular detox days at home.

The post detox phase is really the beginning of a new life for many of our clients and you will continue to benefit from the detox long after you have returned home.
