Flexible program supporting YOUR detox. Do what is appropriate for you. There is no pressure to attend all sessions.

Should I do Colonics? Beneficial, yet not crucial. Listening to what the body wants and needs - that is what this week is about.

Organic Juice keep hunger at bay five times a day. The organic juices consist of carrot, celery, apple, beet and ginger (not all at the same time) with water to enhance your detox. Some detoxers naturally prefer just water as their detox deepens.

Detox Supplements (listed below) are taken with the juice to promote comprehensive detox throughout the intestines and enhance productivity of the colonic irrigations.

Psyllium Husks

provide fibre that keeps your digestive tract moving during your detox fast, sweeping away old debris and toxins that get released during your detox from the digestive tract. Also, it keeps the stomach full - curtailing any sensations of hunger!

Digestive Enzymes

effectively melt the old indigested material and toxins that get caught in old mucoid layers along the bowel wall. These enzymes work along with the psyllium (above) to eliminate this toxic material during the colonics.

Bentonite

Attracts free-floating toxins that are naturally eliminated during your detox, as a magnet would, and efficiently eliminates them via the bowel, by preventing their being reabsorbed into the blood stream via the bowels..

Lacto-bacteria

A complete course of good bacteria is supplied at the end of your detox retreat to reinhabit the bowel with healthy flora. You are advised to continue to top up throughout your life, especially after making one of the many nutritional mistakes common to our times (like alcohol or sugar consumption). More in the Nutrition talks..

Lifestyle 'Fresh Start'

For many of our clients this is a life changing experience, transforming relationship with food, body and self.

Many find inspiration, information and tools they need for a Fresh Start. At Karuna Detox we support, educate and share in a relaxed non-preaching way, with humour and understanding.

Colonic irrigation

The series of self-administered Colonic Irrigations throughout the retreat is a safe and simple way to a cleaner Colon (large intestine), for improved digestion, assimilation, elimination and immunity, laying the foundation to a healthier vibrant living.

Daily Yoga sessions

If you are a beginner or a practiced yogi, you can learn something new in our detox yoga.
Use the retreat time to stretch, release and relax.

Learn to self-correct your posture and lengthen you body from within, relieving strain and joint pain. Daily Yoga is deeply relaxing and enhances your detox.

Meditation & Affirmation

Each meditation class is unique as Sho follows the potential in the room.

Nutrition Talks

These extremely popular talks are an inspiring 'fresh start' crash course. Easy-to-grasp, with a practical slant, you will learn to listen to your body for your own health. Explaining digestion, pH balance, food- combining, toxicity, sequential eating, superfoods and more.

Sho provides a CRAVINGS BUSTING smoothie recipe and essential healthy kitchenware tips. This may just change your life forever!

Health checks

To give you feedback about how the process is affecting your system you may check your weight, Body Mass Index , understood further through actual Body Fat Percentage readings. Blood pressure and pulse rate readings and urine analysis to determine your ongoing pH balance.

You will also receive information on how to prepare ahead of time for your detox and how to ease back into your life after your detox retreat.

Live food gourmet feast...mmmmm!

We end our detox with a feast of live foods, lovingly prepared for you.

After hearing about the benefits of enzyme rich food you now get to taste LIVE tomato pasta, nut and seed dips, chocolate and more. It's a party!

Personal sharing

Our sharing groups provide a safe space to share experience and thoughts. This promotes emotional support between course members and creates a special bond.

As with anything on the retreat, it is not obligatory. Also, a facilitator is always on-hand to provide individual support if required.

Beautiful location & accomodation

Our guests reside in one of a series of cottages and a farmhouse, with indoor poolhouse, sauna, gym suite, yoga room and common room.

Each cottage has a sitting room with flat screen TV, DVD and wireless. Set within landscaped gardens and 5 acres of peaceful fields... this is Devon at it's best!
