Hydration is a crucial part of detoxification, supporting overall wellbeing and energy. To assist your body's natural processes, we encourage you to drink a minimum of three litres of water while on retreat.  ​As part of our commitment to whole-body wellness, we invite you to consider a short caffeine reset during your stay. Over time, our bodies develop tolerance to caffeine, meaning we need more to feel the same effect. A brief pause re-sensitizes the system, often leading to steadier focus, more even energy, and fewer afternoon crashes. A reset also gives your liver space to focus on other metabolic and detoxification tasks, supporting mood, energy, and overall balance. Many guests arrive with elevated cortisol from long periods of stress - the pressure, urgency, or “always on” feeling. Caffeine can heighten this by activating the same stress pathways, increasing cortisol and adrenaline. Taking a break can help settle the nervous system and restore a sense of calm.

​

Nutrition education is a fundamental part of our programmes.  Our emphasis is on achieving stable blood sugar levels, boosting energy, enhancing nutrient intake, nourishing our gut health and facilitating a complete food reset.

 

We prioritize protein, abundant fresh produce, and consuming quality carbohydrates at specific times of the day. We advocate for regular eating intervals, incorporating a 10+ hour overnight fasting period overnight to allow the body sufficient time for rest and digestion.

 

Each retreat programme includes an in-depth nutrition workshop, providing valuable insights into optimal fueling for your body.  Across these workshops we help guests understand key areas of nutrition such as eating the correct foods for fuel, eating at the right times of the day with recommended macro-nutrients and portion sizes, the efficiency and tips of meal planning and learning how to read food labels correctly.  

 

We want our guests to be equipped with the confidence and knowledge of how to shop and eat healthier once they've returned home.  Our commercial kitchen offers the perfect space for daily cooking workshops, to support our dedication of educating and inspiring guests on their health journey.  

​

Guests can choose to book a one-on-one nutrition consultation with one of our wellness managers to if they feel they want a deeper understanding of their personal nutrition journey.  This includes putting together an optimal nutrition plan with a personalised perspective on your health and providing extra guidance where needed.

Each guest receives a copy of our Retreat Yourself Cookbook as part of your experience with us. ​​​
