Restorative Yoga & Meditation with optional Juice Cleanse - 12 April to 14 April 2019

Meditation

No matter what your age, meditation is one of the easiest ways to improve your health. Research at the Medical

College of Georgia found that meditation lowered blood pressure and reduced the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Additional studies have demonstrated meditation can reduce chronic pain, decrease levels of stress and pain in

cancer patients, and reduce symptoms in patients with fibromyalgia.

Other studies have indicated meditation may reduce the levels of cortisol, a hormone that in high levels can weaken the immune system and slow down healing. Results from a small study conducted in 1998 with patients suffering from psoriasis lesions indicated meditation can speed up the body’s natural healing process. Some studies have even suggested meditation can help in the prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease.

Juice Cleanse

The Juice Cleanse is by far the most important food for the day. It contains all the base living nutrients that your body needs to naturally clean, repair, maintain and energise your body.

Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are the heart of the cleanse process. It is from fresh fruits and

vegetables that we get the most potent living nutrients that are responsible for the repairing,

cleaning and rejuvenating the body.
