Join a supportive and uplifting ten-day cleansing program in Kensal Green, NW10
NEXT DATE TBC
We all have a story to share about our experiences during the lockdown. Our daily lives haveseemingly gone through a 180-degree change. Some of us have managed quarantine with excellent diet and lifestyle regimes and deserve huge congratulations with their efforts! Some of us however, even with best of intentions, have noticed some health concerns – extra weight, digestive issues, congestion, toxicity, skin problems and mood swings amongst many others.
Should you be ticking any of these boxes and feel you need a guiding nudge in the right direction, join our unique, state of the art, ayurvedic group detox camp, starting 26th August.
We will be dedicating ten days of group activity around detoxing with the ultimate goal to reinstate good health and wellbeing.
Ayurvedic detoxing focuses on cleansing the gut environment and re-establishing efficient digestive function. This is done by creating a solid daily rhythm, synchronising our body clocks with the cycles of nature.
The gut ultimately sets the tone of our health. By creating a healthy internal environment, we will see improvements in mood, skin condition, toxin drainage and now more importantly than ever, immunity. An optimised gut will be far more effective in assisting the immune system to effectively combat pathogens, viruses and bacteria.
DETOX CAMP ROUTINE
The detox camp does require a level of commitment from you. However, we do recognise
busy schedules and practicalities. Therefore, we have created opportunities to participate
even if you cannot commit to the full camp programme. Three group gatherings will take
place per day: morning, lunchtime and evening. You can commit to the whole course or
chose a particular area relevant to your interest and schedule. Please read about options
below.
Morning 8am – 10am
How you wake up often determines the path that your day will follow. Setting the digestive
and metabolic moods correctly, increases the chances of optimal energy and mental
stamina for the rest of the day. This will help you stick to your regime with positive and
long-lasting results.
The daily programme begins with a dose of carefully determined detoxifying herbs, chosen
according to each individuals’ specific needs. This is followed with exercise, a controlled
breathing session, and meditation. After this, we share a tasty light breakfast.
Each day, we will focus on a particular health theme and incorporate a Q&A
Lunch 2.30pm
This focuses on a small intermittent fasting rhythm with guidance on a twice daily meal
regime: breakfast and late lunch. The rest of the day is given to fasting. The regime will be
supplemented with warm water when required. This powerful and relatively easy routine is
a highly effective way to detoxify, heal and manage lifestyle related health issues.
Lunch is offered later in the day in order to make fasting in the evening easier. Tasty and
flavoursome food is offered on our premises in Kensal Green that respect the Ayurvedic
principals of simple, seasonal, organic and local food. We learn how to eat in a satisfying
way and develop a right kind of attitude towards food.
Knap 3.00pm
We encourage a 15 minute knap after lunch to enhance the ability to digest and encourage
food absorption post digestion. This assists with increasing ones levels of energy for the
afternoon and providing more stamina to successfully fast in the evening. You are welcome
to stay in our premises or welcome, if you prefer, to go home assuming you live locally.
Evening 7.00pm
The evening provides an opportunity to get together for sharing and meditation. For those
new to fasting, this session is particularly beneficial where group encouragement will get
you through any potential moments of doubt. Everyone is encouraged to share their
experiences and thoughts on progress (or otherwise!) and allows for preparation for the
following day.
INITIAL CONSULTATION
Every participant will be given a consultation where we mutually decide on which herbs and
treatments are the most suited to incorporate into your program.
HERBS AND FOOD
Herbs and foods are included in the price of the program.
TREATMENTS
Body treatments can be taken at our spa premises in Kensal Rise. The best time to do these
is between breakfast and lunch, but also early evening sessions can be booked. Treatments
are not mandatory but highly beneficial if you want to speed up progress. The initial
consultation helps to determine what kind of treatments are ideal for you. Massages of
different types help the body to move lymphatic circulation (detoxifying drains) bringing
fresh blood to nourish tissue and reduce pain.
Enemas (ayurvedic colonics) can also be included in this program to assist in emptying and
nourishing the gut environment, helping with the detoxification process.
AIM OF THE DETOX CAMP
With this camp we intend to create a habit that will last throughout your lifetime. By
offering first-hand experience with individually tailored guidance, we will give structure to
your daily routine, encouraging continual detoxification and allowing you to more
successfully manage any weight issues. The idea is to avoid calorie counting and weight
measurement and replace this ethos with one of deep-seated wellbeing regardless of body
shape. Weight loss will naturally result if the designated routines are followed. This,
however, is of secondary importance to a positive mental state paving the way to clarity and
contentment.
The methodology learned during this camp is relatively easy, simple to follow and effective.
It can be applied anywhere, anytime and incorporated to a level within your comfort zone.
Ayurveda is largely about bringing ease and comfort into your life. Rather than being its sole
objectives, detoxification and weight control are happily some of the natural by-products of
its principals.
Learning these habits within a group environment has shown to be more successful and
effective with a hands-on support network present to help and guide you through the
process. You will have the opportunity to share and compare your experiences with others
with similar issues and objectives that will lead to a clearer understanding of your individual
needs but also an understanding of our collective nature.
