Home › Retreats › 8 Day Wellness Retreat: Water Fasting Detox and Yoga in Phuket, Thailand
Thailand · 8 days · From USD 1590
This retreat is a meticulously designed program that integrates the ancient wisdom of water fasting with the dynamic practice of Ashtanga yoga. Water fasting is recognized as one of the most effective methods to harmonize the body's physiological processes, prompting it to shift from using readily available food energy to utilizing stored reserves, particularly lipids (fats), as a powerful source of fuel. Simultaneously, the process of autophagy is triggered, where the body identifies and recycles weak, diseased, and dead cells, particularly blood cells, leading to a systemic cleanup that rejuvenates cardiovascular and other vital systems. This deep cellular detoxification is enhanced by our daily yoga and pranayama, which actively involve the muscles, encouraging the body to burn fat rather than muscle mass during the fast.
The program is structured in three distinct stages: the entering period, the fasting period, and the exit period. During the entering and exit stages, we provide healthy vegan meals and smoothies to gently prepare your digestive system and reintroduce food after the fast. The core fasting days are supported by herbal drinks, detox water, and coconut water, along with a range of cleansing therapies. Your personal program is designed individually based on your constitution, age, and specific needs, ensuring both safety and effectiveness. We believe in a holistic transformation: as your body purifies, you will also release mental attachments and overcome emotional weaknesses, leading to a state of profound mental peace and resilience.
Our serene location in South Phuket offers an ideal environment for introspection and healing. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and the calming sounds of nature, our center provides a sanctuary away from distractions. The daily schedule balances invigorating yoga sessions with restorative treatments and ample time for rest and reflection. We maintain a small group size to ensure personalized attention and a supportive community atmosphere. By the end of this 8-day journey, you will not only have reset your physical body but also gained invaluable tools for maintaining a balanced and mindful lifestyle long after you return home.
