A bit on Cleansing from the Hacienda del Sol website:


Cleansing is an “in” thing to do since more people share a truth about wanting the feeling of feeling good and feeling light in their bodies and minds. More people are choosing alive raw foods and making it a way of life. Books and courses and experiential retreats are very available to support the people who want this kind of experience and the change of lifestyle. Alive or raw food is not new but it has come back to us since we have discovered that cooked foods and processed foods are not what gives the human body health.

Retreat Includes:
* accommodation
* raw food introduction – we begin the cleanse with raw food and end the cleanse with raw food
* 5 day juice fast – chlorophyll drinks, noni juice, pipa juice (from coconut), vegetable protein drinks
* colonics – 2 a day (colon cleansing)
* daily meditation and yoga
* group sharing and inspiration
* skin cleansing – clay baths
* giving and receiving abdominal massage
* PLUS Healing Circle with Acupuncture with Mitra
Influenced by traditional Acupuncture clinics, receiving acupuncture in a group raises the frequency of the energy field and invites deeper healing individually and collectively. Before one is invited to participate in a group session, the person meets with Mitra for a private interview session to gather information about their state of being.
The group session takes place over a 3-4 hour period and the participants are scheduled to arrive in intervals of 15 minutes. Mitra meets with each person for a short consultation and then guides them into the group space to receive the treatment. At a certain point, there may be 7-10 people receiving healing simultaneously, creating a powerful energy field.
