Mind & Body Detox Weekend
Feb 18th - 20th 2011
Lisloughrey Hotel, Cong, Co. Galway
Investing in your health is sometimes the last thing we think of doing when taking that well-earned break. But what if you could kick-start your health routine in luxury?
Relax, unwind and detox with us in Lisloughrey Lodge, a
luxurious 4 star boutique hotel in Cong. This is an ideal weekend to
introduce you to the powers of juicing whilst also enjoying some light and warming
vegan cuisine.
The Detoxification programme is designed and run by experienced nutritional therapist Maev Creavan, B.Eng.MSc. Dip.NT. Maev has worked in detoxification retreats in Turkey, India and Ireland and has also has her own thriving private practice in Galway. Maev also teaches nutrition in Galway and Dublin.
This detox programme will assist you in
eliminating
toxins through taking detoxifying herbs, drinking plenty of fresh
organic juices, fluids and doing yoga. Classes on nutrition and
healthy eating and cooking are also
included.
The weekend assists you in kick starting
healthier habits by giving your
body a break from processed foods, alcohol,
tobacco, caffeine, meat, dairy, wheat and sugar. Instead the diet is focused on
maximising your intake of fresh juices, organic fruit and vegetables that help the body
to cleanse.
Yoga is a
central element in this retreat as it is extremely effective in helping the
body to destress and detoxify (why do you always feel good after a yoga session?!). It is perhaps the only form of activity that massages all the
internal glands and organs of the body. By gently stretching muscles and joints
as well as massaging the various organs, yoga ensures the optimum blood supply
to various parts of the body. Yoga also helps to harmonise the mind with the
body to relax and rejuvenate the mental and emotional systems of the body as
well as the physical.
Why detox?
Most people subject their bodies to harmful
lifestyles and diets that inhibit the body’s ability to cleanse and heal
itself. Eating a poor diet of processed foods clogs up the digestive
system with waste materials and prevents our bodies from absorbing vital
nutrients, inhibits the immune system and, over time, can lead to
health problems. To counteract this we need to eat less of things that
are bad for us, and more of the good things. Making simple changes to
your diet will aid your digestion, give you more energy and help ward
off disease and weight gain.
