9-Day Liquid Fasting Detox & Yoga Wellness Retreat in Koh Phangan, Thailand

The detox program itself is the heart of this retreat. You'll spend 7.5 days on a restricted liquid fast – vegetable broth, fresh juice, and coconut water – which gives your digestive system a break while your body redirects energy into clearing out toxins. Every day includes five detox shakes made with organic psyllium husk and hydrated bentonite, five sets of detox herbs, one chlorophyll-packed green juice, one fresh coconut water, one vegetable broth, filtered water, and ginger tea. You'll also do two self-administered colemas each day (one recommended, one optional) using Colema Boards® equipment imported from California, in a private room prepared for you.

Fasting is only half of it. The schedule keeps you busy and supported: morning meditation or pranayama sessions (45 minutes, guided), a daily one-hour Thai massage on fasting days, afternoon yin or restorative yoga – both soft, floor-based styles that release tension – and access to up to six other yoga classes a day, including Yoga Basic, Hatha, Yoga Nidra and Sound Healing. Daily support and supervision comes from detox consultants who have guided thousands of guests through the process, and there are group Detox Circles to help you process what comes up.

Optional add-ons let you go deeper: an Anti-Candida Program (2,000 THB), an Anti-Parasite Program (2,000 THB), or a Liver/Gallbladder Cleanse (3,000 THB) – all three together cost 6,000 THB. These are discussed with your Detox Coordinator on arrival.

The last day is a structured reintroduction to food, so you ease back into eating rather than jumping straight into a big meal. Many guests leave feeling lighter and clearer, and the centre reports that a good number go on to book their longer yoga retreats or teacher trainings afterwards. Ananda also offers 5-day and 12-day versions of this detox if you want a taster or a deeper dive.

Daily life at Ananda is simple and communal. You'll be surrounded by a small group of like-minded people doing the same thing, which makes the fast much easier than doing it alone. The centre is right by the road and easy to reach, but the grounds are peaceful – garden, saltwater pool, herbal steam sauna, ice bath, and yoga shala. There's live music at sunset at their restaurant, The Shell, and beach walks whenever you need to move your body.
