NORTH COAST PERU, MARCH 13-19 2015

DETOX RETREAT

B Y E M I L Y S H A W

INCLUDED TREATMENTSAromatherapy MassageEveryone will be booked in for 2 separate full-body therapeutic massages from a very talented holistic-touch professional. All therapeutic massage is beneficial to the detoxification process but our treatments are slightly modified to focus on the specific needs of the body in Detox. This includes emphasis on lymphatic drainage, pressure points for encouraging the release of energy blockages and finally deep restorative relaxation of the entire organism. BLISS.

NasyaNasya is the Ayurvedic treatment of the application of medicated oil into the nasal passage. Nasya oil is opening and cleansing to all the 5 senses and encourages healthy head maintenance. Everyone has the option of booking in a Nasya treatment during the week. The treatment consists of a Andean Pink Salt steam inhalation, Ayurvedic face and head massage followed by the medicated oil application.

Thermal Mud Bathing On Our Private BeachWithin the surrounding area are therapeutic thermal mud baths. Mud sourced close to the ocean is high in natural salts that draw toxins from the body through the skin and simultaneously nourish the skin with the high mineral content. This special mud will be available for us to self-apply on our own beach to wash off in the beautiful pacific.

ReboundingAll day access to the trampoline allows you to super charge your detox (while laughing your head off). Bouncing, or rebounding is extremely beneficial to the detoxification process because it brings so much fresh oxygen to the tissues, especially when it’s done on the oxygen rich beach. This amazing low-impact exercise stimulates the lymphatic system, a key to a successful detox. Just a short 5 minutes rebounding session can also greatly improve both digestion and the elimination process.

Personalised Aromatherapy Room ServicePersonalized blends are provided to you for use within your rooms in your oil burners provided. Essential oils are incorporated into the detox retreat in many ways for many reasons. Mainly, they are so helpful in assisting the nervous system to stay in the parasympathetic mode, the only state the body can detox and repair. Essential oils can also be very affective in deep sleep promotion, another detox essential.

Raw + Fermented Food DemosWe will have access to the fabulous open kitchen and I plan to use it to co-create as much magic as possible. I will be hosting open classes and demos on the fun of medicinal raw chocolate making (yup, we will eat it

B Y E M I L Y S H A W all) as well as fermented food such as coconut kefir, rejuvelac, kimchee and sauerkraut: all of which we will be incorporating into our diet for optimal gut health and the promotion of strong digestion.

Fresh Aloe VeraAnother super powered detox plant is Aloe Vera, known as Kumari in Ayurvedic medicine. Aloe is one of the most beneficial plants for encouraging an alkaline state in the body, as well as a host of detoxification applications. Many detox programs encourage drinking bottled aloe beverages that contain stabilizers and other additives so it is a true luxury to be able to incorporate the fresh plant, locally sourced, into the daily protocol.

Charla’s Post sunset time is a lovely time to gather around the candle lit plush lounges and share information. I will be posing the informal discussions topics in our schedule for those who are eager to expand their knowledge base to join in. Topics will be focused on Ayurvedic life-style fundamentals and the post-detox diet approach.

B Y E M I L Y S H A W You are free to join in and benefit form as many or as few classes as you like. Our beautiful yoga space is available for private practice, play, stretch, or chats any time outside the scheduled classes.

YOGA, QOYA + MEDITATION

Detox YogaDetox Yoga is an effective synthesis of Pranayama breath work, restorative postures, meditation, and detox-sup-porting asanas. These gentle yet powerful yogic practices synthesize to fully support the detoxification process. Detox Yoga classes will encourage optimization of the lymphatic system, increase oxygen absorption, gently mas-sage the internal organs and encourage deep muscular and cerebral relaxation. Ashtanga yoga classes are also offered for those who enjoy a more challenging class and allow for a good detox-sweat session.

QoyaQoya is the exuberant fusion of yoga, creative dance, and liberating movement. Developed by Rochelle Schieck, Qoya has a strong following and was recently featured on Oprah.com. It burns fat, builds strength, and increas-es flexibility. At the same time, allows us to let go of old pain, toxic thought patterns, and limiting beliefs as we dance our way through them. Jayne Rusby is a certified Qoya and yoga instructor and will be bringing this divine daily practice into this incredible retreat experience, direct from the UK.

Organic Detox HerbsLocally revered and well-studied Peruvian herbs for liver and kidney cleansing, decalcification, blood purifying and fat burning.

Mild Colon PurgeOrganic Castor oil purge: Pre-Juice fasting colon preparation. Optional

Raw Juice FastingJumping right into a 100% liquid diet is not a great way to detox the body. One of the fundamentals of a good detox must be to encourage and support all our organs of elimination. Once the toxins are freed-up from within our organism, we need to ensure they are then carried away quickly and safely. Therefore, removing all soluble and insoluble fiber form the diet, as you do with you are only ingesting vegetable extracts, can very easily cause constipation in anyone with a slower or weakened digestive system. This is extremely counterproductive to the process. In this program we carefully prepare the body for the 3-day juice fast that happens on day 4, 5 & 6. This protocol gets incredible results. 100% of the consumables on this program are grown in Peru: local, organic + seasonal!

Secondary NutritionWe can be “fed” in so many ways and feeling satiated is not dependent strictly on food. During the week we will be playing with the fun expansion into this awareness. Here is one of my favorite quotes on the topic: “Diet is defined through Ayurveda as something you take in from any field of perception, from any mode of intellect. What this simply means, is that when you are looking at your food, you are looking at 1/5th of your diet. You take in what you touch, what you smell what you feel, what you hear and what you think. Everything that goes in becomes a part of your nutrition”. Dr. R.E. Svoboda

What will the weather be like in March?Beautiful. March is summer in Peru and the weather will be hot and sunny in both Lima and the North Coast. You can expect temperatures to be around 23°C - 32°C in the day and only drop 5-10 degrees at night. There is no rain in Lima but periodic refreshing rain can be expected in the North Coast. And of course, because it is “weather”, it is unpredictable.

KiCHIC is located on Mancora Chico beach (also known as Las Pocitas), Northern coast of Peru, located 5 km away from Mancora Town and 2 km from Vichayito beach. There are daily flights (approx 1 hour) from Lima to Piura and Tumbes, the nearest airports to get to Mancora. We recommend flights from Tumbes airport due to the proximity to Mancora and KiCHIC.

Lima is a safe city and only common sense is needed to have a great experience. I am happy to offer extended-stay reconditions for lodging and healthy eating upon request.
