What are the do’s and don’ts before coming? What should I eat & drink?

For best results, two weeks before joining our detox program begin to follow the Pre-Detox Program that will be sent after you confirm your booking . This will both alkalize and prepare your body for a deeper cleansing. If you do not have enough time, you should start a minimum of 3 days before the detox program. For optimum results in the pre-cleansing phase, eat no meat, dairy products, salt, sugar or foods with added sugar.
Reduce and eventually stop the intake of coffee, tea, alcohol and all other drinks with caffeine. You can drink all sorts of herbal teas instead. Drink water as often as possible, but not with a meal. Water is a critical addition to the cleansing process. It is best to drink at least 6% of your body weight (I.e. 70 kg body weight, drink 4.2 liters of water). Cut off caffeine and alcohol, eat as much raw fruit and vegetables as your body can handle.

Why do I need to Pre-Cleanse?

Pre-cleansing prepares your body for the deep cleansing you will experience on the full fast. On a pre-fast, your body will move from an acidic state towards the alkalinity needed for cleansing. You will also increase your storage of electrolytes, giving your body the strength needed for cleansing. Fasting without properly preparing your body can result in rapid toxin elimination which, in turn, can lead to some discomfort including headaches, fatigue, vomiting, diarrhea and dizziness.

I did not do a pre-detox. Can I still start my detox?

The pre-detox is significant in terms of easing the transition to a detox program. If you start your detox without doing the pre-detox beforehand, you might feel the “detox symptoms” stronger. These symptoms are also known as the “healing symptoms” which are general reactions that the body can experience in the first couple of days of the detox such as headaches, dizziness, feeling nauseous, having strange dreams etc. If you arrive at the center without doing the pre-detox, we can apply the green detox programs to help you to do your pre-detox here.

What should I bring with me?

There is nothing specific you need to bring, just comfortable clothing for yoga, meditation and exercise classes etc. Some sports shoes (trainers) for walking, sun cream, bikini and a good book for when you are chilling out on the beach. Sportswear and swimsuit would be sufficient to wear during your program. (For the daily walks, yoga classes, use of the fitness room, daily pool/sea/infrared sauna/steam room usages etc.) For the wet season it is suggested to bring a rain coat.
