Juice Cleansing: During the first five days of the detox journey, daily meals will be replaced with four bottles of delicious organic green juices, which are freshly prepared every morning. You will drink the first bottle of juice at the end of each daily detox session that is held at Etti's Studio every morning. Then you take away three bottles with you and drink them throughout the day to nourish your body. On the sixth day, you will drink four bottles of organic fruit and seed milk based smoothies. They are rich, sweet, and satisfying. They also prepare your body for the solid meals you are about to re-introduce to your body on the last day of Etti's Detox.
Body Movement and Dance:
Every session begins with stretching to music. This exciting portion of the morning session has become an "addictive" ritual. Detoxers gather in a circle in the studio and share the dynamic energy that is created by the body movement. Dr. Etti has created her own authentic style of body movement and dance, which combines flow yoga, tai chi, tribal dance, and Donna Eden's energy movement. It rejuvenates all energy centers throughout the body and carries you through a spontaneous flow. You will laugh, jump, dance, and wake up your senses. It is such a fun way to reconnect with your breath and experience your energy.
Healing Meditation:
After an energy boost from the body movement, Etti guides you through a 10 to 15 minutes' meditation session. It's a healing process through which you shift your attention inwards and discover the light and power that exist deep inside of you. Self healing is the power your body possesses yet it tends to be disregarded. This guided meditation allows you to take your time to listen and re-establish the dialogue between you and your body. You will discover your own "body intelligence" and reclaim your power.
Inspiring Dialogues:
It is during the detox process that you will need support, caring, and guidance the most. A free form of conversation with your fellow detoxers and Etti in a relaxed setting makes you feel encouraged, inspired and supported. During this period, detoxers share their experiences, concerns; exchange ideas, helpful tips; they help each other to conquer obstacles and inspire each other with their new discoveries about themselves on all levels. Etti answers everyone's questions, explains the important detox protocols, and shares with the group her philosophy on holistic living. It's a session of learning, sharing, and bonding.
Closing Breakfast Ceremony:
All detoxers are invited to a special closing ceremony that is held at Dr. Etti's home on the seventh day. Through the journey, everyone has considered a new relationship to food; they are ready to re-introduce solid food to their body. A guest chef is invited to give the group a demonstration, sharing the knowledge of healthy cooking. Then the group gathers to do the body movement one more time before they sit down to enjoy a delicious breakfast that is expressly formulated for them by Etti. The ceremony is a celebration of the incredible journey; it's a celebration of transformation; a celebration of life. Detoxers take away lunch, dinner, snack, and dessert that have been prepared and packed for them.
