Bucket-List Sabbatical Underway! Visit Blog!

Life races along and how many times does it happen that we put our dreams aside for work and responsibilites, only to find when we finally have time to live our Bucket List that we are either too tired, too incapacitated or too broke to do it. In hindsight we look back and say "Why didn't I do it when I was younger?" And the only excuse is, we couldn't see the end of the opportunities coming - couldn't anticipate time would run out, or our health or finances would deteriorate. So, while I'm still relatively young and in decent health, even though there's not much finances to wing it all on, I'm going for it - Going For Broke, as the saying goes, and it may end up that way, but at least I will have lived a bunch of my dreams first. Get out there and adventure for awhile! That's what I'm doing now...join in my adventures at SaysLife at Word Press.

Health Vacations in Palm Springs, CA

We offer fresh organic juices made moments before you drink them during 6-day juice fasting retreats designed to help cleanse, rebuild, and recharge your entire being. Fasting is the oldest known health remedy. Also known as detox retreats, a "time-out" for fasting has been practised by cultures around the world throughout human existence, and is the natural method for restoring health and preventing illness. Even animals fast naturally when they don't feel well.

Check our 2010 location: The Horizon Hotel, with spacious garden grounds surrounded by spectacular mountain views. This stunning classical modernism hotel was recently remodeled from the ground up and the entire place is gorgeous. Each room has a private patio, is stylishly furnished, has free wi-fi, and the use of the beautiful large saltwater pool and jacuzzi is heavenly. There are bicycles to ride around town with, and a badminton net. It is only 2 miles from either the Palm Springs International Airport or the highly acclaimed Indian Canyons walking trails. Please reserve your retreat at least two weeks prior to its start date...don't delay!

Juice Fasts are safer and easier than water fasts, and help maintain proper blood sugar levels during a period of no solid foods. Juice Fasts are being recommended by doctors for rebalancing pH levels, boosting immune systems, cleansing and detoxifying, while simultaneiously providing high amounts of natural vitamins, minerals, enzymes, electrolytes, probiotics, salts, sugars and more.

Not all fasting retreats are the same, and it's important to learn the differences. We use the best organic fruits and vegetables available, and the juices are fresh-made moments before you drink them. We also serve fresh-squeezed Wheatgrass juice, organic Herbal Teas and fresh-picked organic Meyers lemons for the Master Cleanse. Dinner is a delicious organic vegetable broth, and Reverse Osmosis spring water is available at all times. In every detail, we try to offer the best health experience you can attain, as well as the most joyous and informational of retreats we hope you've ever attended.

Your fast is overseen daily by the Retreat Director, and you may choose either an active, programmed retreat or a relaxed, quiet and restful week. It's your choice, for your best health experience.
