Why detox?
Toxins can accumulate through what we eat and drink, the air we breathe, what we put on our skin, the chemicals present in our environment and even by the way we think! Although the human body is designed to eliminate toxins, it can quickly become clogged up, leading to toxins becoming stored in the cells and joints. Ultimately this reduces the body’s ability to function properly and to heal itself.
Detox supports and allows the body to heal itself, cleansing and repairing at deep cellular level. Healthy food is nature’s medicine.
Our digestive, nervous, and hormonal system were designed to work together to achieve optimum health. This is what our bodies want to do! When we overload them with toxins and unhealthy foods, these systems don\’t work as well as they should and we get sick. Detoxing brings balance back and helps our systems function properly again.
Specifically crafted for women’s health, this detox will take you on a transformative journey towards vibrant health, a peaceful mind and a sexy body. We have carefully created a plant based, gourmet raw & cooked food menu, along with superfoods, juices, smoothies and herbal teas. All adapted to the special needs of a female body. In the middle of the retreat we will offer a 3 day juice cleanse for an in depth boost to your immune system.

Location
A voyage over an emerald sea, past characteristic coves and beaches of snow white sand … this is Sardinia, an island that strikes its visitors with natural contrasts, the lights and colours of a region that combines old traditions and a wild and pure nature.
The month of October offers a very pleasant temperature with a high of 22°C, and a low of around 13°C.
Among its wonders, Sardinia offers the visitor ancient sites from the Nuragic civilisation (bronze age).
These sacred sites are unique to the world, testifying to an ancient culture and still remain rather mysterious. Sardinia is known as the island of healing and holy waters with its numerous Sacred Wells and water worship. Many of those wells are said to be worshipping the sacred feminine aspects and contain a powerful healing energy.
As part of our retreat we will visit some of them.
The Santa Christian Sacred well
Domus de Janas \’Fairy houses\’
The Tombs of Giants
Cala Gonone seaside town
