He aha te mea nui? He tangata. He tangata. He tangata.
What is the most important thing? It is people. It is people. It is people.
"There is a purpose to your life. You were born to fulfill that purpose in a way that no one else can. You bring to life talents, gifts and experiences like no other. Every experience is a key to your purpose, every talent a tool for your purpose. Each life a natural built-in reason for being. Purpose is the creative spirit of life moving through you from the inside out. It is the deep mysterious dimension in each soul, which carries with it a profound intuitive sense of personal identity."
The Keys of Jeshua, "The Soul's Purpose"
Once you can clearly understand the value of who you are you will truly appreciate your life."

Detox Health Retreat
Bring back more vitality and energy by cleansing you body and mind....
A retreat designed for people of at least average health. If unwell, we recommend a 28 day programme. Please feel welcome to talk to us about how we may tailor this for you.
Live-In Detox Health Retreats are individually designed to bring together high quality, treatments and therapies which encourage the body to eliminate toxins and the mind to transform thought patterns into more life affirming ones.
Your Detox Health Retreat
We cater for one residential guest at a time (or a couple in relationship). It is a personalised individual retreat focused on detoxifying the body and mind. You live in with us and we are available at all times. We provide you with a supporting detoxifying diet for the herbal detox we use on this retreat.
We invite you to talk to a past guest who has attended a similar retreat to the one your are considering, to get a better idea about what you might expect by coming on retreat with us. We are very happy to arrange this for you. Please let us what we can do to make you feel more comfortable with your decision to come on retreat with us.

Your Detox Health Retreat includes a range of activities and therapies to assist you including
- Colon Hydrotherapy (Colonic Irrigation – conditions apply) and a Herbal Cleansing Programme - Ultimate Herbal Detox.
- Life coaching with the one major goal of providing you with an education on what causes psychological stress (toxicity) and what can neutralise psychological stress (toxicity). This is based on the teachings of Greg Neville N.D.
- Transforming Breathwork to help release past emotional trauma resulting from life experiences which may still be causing you psychological stress (toxicity). Bringing them to the surface will assist in allowing new information to be integrated into your mind and body.
- "The Journey" sessions are emotional healing sessions that bring forth from your subconscious mind and into your conscious awareness the relevant issues and past memories which still cause unknown psychological stress and toxicity in your body in mind. This guided process is done in a safe and self observing way. The results can be remarkable with change starting to happen straight away and further improving over time. (We recommend you read the book prior to arrival although it is not necessary. The name of the book is, "The Journey" by Brandon Bays. Most major book stores have this book available).
- Full body massages. These are remedial massages to support detoxifying your physical body and relaxation.
- Exercise. It is important to take part in exercise that suits your current health level while you are on retreat. Our highest recommendation for exercise if practical for you is to attend yoga classes at an extra cost per session to be paid directly to the yoga teacher. These sessions are highly recommended by us as they support and complement your retreat. As with our retreats, using the breath is the main focus and so is the practice of calming a stressed mind and finding practical ways to do this. Yoga sessions can assist you in opening your body and mind to a greater appreciation of being alive.
Your retreat is all about you and we encourage you to focus only on you. Inform your family and friends that you are away on retreat and not available during that time.
We provide vegetarian food specific to a detox programme and do our best to accommodate any other dietary needs and preferences. We may ask you to help with this if you have highly specialised dietary requirements.
Our involvement is of the nature of mentor, guide, coach, facilitator, supporter and teacher and it is in this function we specialise in. We're quite friendly and laugh a lot. We create a safe and supportive environment in which you can experience emotional and deep level healing and personal development while detoxifying.
Our offering to you is comprised of a holistic, multi-faceted approach supporting your detoxification experience.
